Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 76 / Wednesday, April 20, 2022 / Notices 23695 

instructions. Once all pre-grant actions 

are complete, the FAA RO/ADO will 

offer the sponsor a grant for the 

announced project. This offer may be 

provided through postal mail or by 

electronic means, and it includes an 

offer letter and a grant agreement. Once 

the sponsor accepts the offer and has 

fully executed the grant agreement, that 

agreement becomes the legally binding 

grant award document. Awards made 

under this program are subject to 

conditions and assurances in the grant 

agreement. In FY 2022, the FAA will 

announce awards several times 

throughout the fiscal year, but no later 

than September 30, 2022. These 

announcements can include entitlement 

and discretionary awards. 

2. Administrative Requirements 

i. Pre-Award Authority 

Under 49 U.S.C. 47110(b)(2), all 

project costs must be incurred after the 

grant execution date unless specifically 

permitted under the AIP statutes. Table 

3–60 of the AIP Handbook lists the rules 

regarding when project costs can be 

incurred in relation to the grant 

execution date, the type of funding, and 

the type of project. Certain airport 

development costs incurred before 

execution of the grant agreement are 

allowable, but only if certain conditions 

under 49 U.S.C. 47110(b)(2)(D) and 

Table 3–60 of the AIP Handbook are 

met. Specifically, all allowable costs 

using passenger, cargo, and nonprimary 

entitlement (formula) funding after 9/ 

30/1996 may be reimbursed regardless 

of whether they were incurred before 

the grant was executed as long as all 

other applicable AIP requirements have 

been met. In addition, allowable costs 

using any or all the following 

discretionary, state apportionment 

(including insular) and Alaska 

supplemental funding project costs 

must have been incurred after the grant 

execution date. The only exceptions are 

based on statute and are relating to the 

Part 150 Noise Mitigation program, 

project formulation for development 

and planning projects, land acquisition, 

letters of intent, and design-build 

projects, Military Airport Program and 

climate-related conditions. 

ii. Planning 

The FAA encourages applicants to 

review and understand the long-term 

planning process in the lifecycle of an 

AIP grant. The planning process for a 

particular project begins several years 

before a fiscal year in which a grant is 

awarded. FAA Order 5090.5 establishes 

guidelines for the two Federal plans 

essential to airport development: The 

National Plan of Integrated Airport 

Systems (NPIAS) and the Airports 

Capital Improvement Plan (ACIP) is 

available at https://www.faa.gov/ 

airports/planning_capacity/npias_acip_

order/. 

iii. Grant Requirements 

All grant recipients are subject to the 

grant requirements of the AIP, which 

includes requirements of 49 U.S.C. 

Chapter 471. Grant recipients are subject 

to requirements in the FAA’s Agreement 

for AIP for financial assistance awards, 

the annual Certifications and 

Assurances required of applicants, and 

any additional applicable statutory or 

regulatory requirements, including 

nondiscrimination requirements, 2 CFR 

part 200, Uniform Administrative 

Requirements, Cost Principles, and 

Audit Requirements for Federal Awards. 

Grant requirements include, but are not 

limited to, approved project on an 

airport layout plan, compliance with 

federal civil rights laws, Buy American 

requirements under 49 U.S.C. 50101, 

Build America, Buy America Act 

requirements under Public Law 117–58, 

Transportation Disadvantaged Business 

Enterprise (DBE) program regulations 

for Airports (49 CFR part 23 and 49 CFR 

part 26), and Davis-Bacon Act, as 

amended (40 U.S.C. 276a—276a–5). 

iv. Standard Assurances 

Applicants must assure that it will 

comply with all applicable Federal 

statutes, regulations, executive orders, 

directives, FAA circulars, and other 

Federal administrative requirements in 

carrying out any project supported by 

the AIP grant. Applicants must 

acknowledge that they are under a 

continuing obligation to comply with 

the terms and conditions of the grant 

agreement issued for its project with the 

FAA. Applicants understand that 

Federal laws, regulations, policies, and 

administrative practices might be 

modified from time to time and may 

affect the implementation of the project. 

Applicants must agree that the most 

recent Federal requirements will apply 

to the project unless the FAA issues a 

written determination otherwise. 

Applicants must submit the 

Certifications and Assurances before 

receiving a grant, including sponsor 

grant assurances and 2 CFR part 200. 

The Airport Sponsor Assurances are 

available on the FAA website at: https:// 

www.faa.gov/airports/aip/grant_

assurances/. 

3. Reporting 

The grant recipient is subject to 

financial reporting per 2 CFR 200.328 

and performance reporting per 2 CFR 

200.329. Under the AIP, the grant 

recipient is required to comply with all 

Federal financial reporting requirements 

and payment requirements, including 

the submittal of timely and accurate 

reports. Financial and performance 

reporting requirements are available in 

the FAA October 2020 Financial 

Reporting Policy, which is available at 

https://www.faa.gov/airports/aip/grant_

payments/media/aip-grant-paymentpolicy.pdf. 

The grant recipient must comply with 

annual audit reporting requirements. 

The grant recipient and sub-recipients, 

if applicable, must comply with 2 CFR 

part 200 subpart F Audit reporting 

requirements. The grant recipient must
