You can get an electronic copy of this notice, FAA Order 5100–38C, and the draft Order by visiting the FAA’s Airports Web page at http:// www.faa.gov/airports/ after January 31,
2013. Background

The Airport Improvement Program is an airport grant program, established by the Airport and Airway Improvement Act of 1982 as amended, 49 U.S.C. 47101 et seq. (AAIA). Order 5100–38C, Airport Improvement Program Handbook, issued June 28, 2005, contains instructions to FAA employees on implementing the AIP. This Order is widely used by airports, consultants and others. This draft Order will replace Order 5100–38C and supersedes most Program Guidance Letters (PGLs) issued through Fiscal Year 2012.

Since 2005, there have been substantial changes to the laws and policies relating to the AIP, including the recent FAA reauthorization bill, the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of
2012.

To incorporate these changes and provide the most useful and current program guidance to agency employees, the Office of Airport Planning and Programming, Financial Assistance Division has updated and significantly revised the Handbook to maximize its clarity. This update is a fundamental rewrite of FAA Order 5100–38C, the current version of the Airport Improvement Program Handbook. The update clarifies the different responsibilities of the FAA Office of Airports staff and those of the AIP grant sponsor. The basic Handbook includes the requirements for all grant projects and also includes appendices that canbe used as a ready-reference for projectspecific requirements.

Invitation for Public Comment

While the FAA generally does not request public comment on internal orders, the agency is offering this opportunity for public comment in recognition of the interest of all segments of the airport community in the AIP. The agency will consider all comments received by the closing date of the comment period in finalizing this Order. Comments received after that date may be considered if consideration will not delay agency action on the Order.

Comments must be submitted on the AIP Draft Handbook Comment Form, which is available for downloading at: http://www.faa.gov/airports/. Comments that are not submitted on the form may be considered only if consideration will not delay agency action on the Order.

Issued in Washington, DC, on January 23,
2013. Frank J. San Martin, Manager, Airports Financial Assistance Division, Office of Airport Planning and Programming.
