SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

General Description of the Program 

The MAP allows the Secretary to 

designate current joint-use or former 

military airports to receive grants from 

the Airport Improvement Program (AIP). 

The Secretary is authorized to designate 

an airport (other than an airport 

designated before August 24, 1994) only 

if: 

(1) The airport is a former military 

installation closed or realigned under 

the Title 10 U.S.C. Sec. 2687 

(announcement of closures of large 

Department of Defense installations 

after September 30, 1977), or under 

Section 201 or 2905 of the Defense 

Authorization Amendments and Base 

Closure and Realignment Acts; or 

(2) the airport is a military installation 

with both military and civil aircraft 

operations. 

The Secretary shall consider for 

designation only those current joint-use 

or former military airports, at least 

partly converted to civilian airports as 

part of the national air transportation 

system, that will reduce delays at 

airports with more than 20,000 hours of 

annual delays in commercial passenger 

aircraft takeoffs and landings, or will 

enhance airport and air traffic control 

system capacity in metropolitan areas, 

or reduce current and projected flight 

delays (49 U.S.C. 47118(c)). 

The MAP provides capital 

development assistance to civil airport 

sponsors of designated current joint-use 

military airfields or former military 

airports that are included in the FAA’s 

National Plan of Integrated Airport 

Systems (NPIAS). Airports designated to 

the MAP may be able to receive grant 

funds from a set-aside (currently four 

percent of AIP discretionary funds) for 

airport development, including certain 

projects not otherwise eligible for AIP 

assistance. These airports are also 

eligible to receive grants from other 

categories of AIP funding. 

Number of Airports 

A maximum of 15 airports per fiscal 

year may participate in the MAP, of
