carrier to provide foreign air transportation.
(2) CONTENTS.—In conducting the study under
this subsection, the Secretary shall examine the fol-
lowing:
(A) The impact of a prohibition described
in paragraph (1) on the aviation relationship

sult in the withdrawal of slots from general
aviation and military aviation in order to allo-
cate them to air carriers and foreign air car-
riers providing foreign air transportation and
the impact of such a withdrawal of slots on gen-
eral aviation and military aviation.
(C) The impact on air carriers providing
interstate air transportation of the current
practice of withdrawing slots in order to allo-
cate them to air carriers or foreign air carriers
providing foreign air transportation.

(b) PROCEDURES FOR CONTRACTS AND GRANTS.—
The Administrator and the heads of the other appropriate
Federal agencies shall administer contracts and grants en-
tered into under the program established under subsection
(a) in accordance with procedures developed jointly by the
Administrator and the heads of the other appropriate Fed-
eral agencies. The procedures should include an integrated
acquisition policy for contract and grant requirements and
for technical data rights that are not an impediment to
joint programs among the Federal Aviation Administra-
tion, the other Federal agencies involved, and industry.
(c) PROGRAM ELEMENTS.—The program established
under subsection (a) shall include—
(1) selected programs that jointly enhance pub-
lic and private aviation technology development;
(2) an opportunity for private contractors to be

ment; and
(3) the transfer of Government-developed tech-
nologies to the private sector to promote economic
strength and competitiveness.

SEC. 304. AIRCRAFT CABIN AIR QUALITY RESEARCH PRO-
GRAM.
(a) ESTABLISHMENT.—The Administrator of the
Federal Aviation Administration (in this Act referred to
as the ‘‘Administrator’’) and the heads of other appro-
priate Federal agencies shall establish a research program
to determine—
(1) what, if any, aircraft cabin air conditions,
including pressure altitude systems, on flights within
the United States are harmful to the health of air-
line passengers and crew, as indicated by physical
symptoms such as headaches, nausea, fatigue, and
lightheadedness; and
(2) the risk of airline passengers and crew con-
tracting infectious diseases during flight.
(b) CONTRACT WITH INDEPENDENT RESEARCH OR-
GANIZATION.—In carrying out the research program es-
tablished under subsection (a), the Administrator and the
heads of the other appropriate Federal agencies shall con-
tract with an independent research organization to carry
out any studies necessary to meet the goals of the program
set forth in subsection (c).
(c) GOALS.—The goals of the research program es-
tablished under subsection (a) shall be—
(1) to determine what, if any, cabin air condi-
tions currently exist on domestic aircraft used for
flights within the United States that could be harm-
ful to the health of airline passengers and crew, as
indicated by physical symptoms such as headaches,
nausea, fatigue, and lightheadedness, and including
the risk of infection by bacteria and viruses;
(2) to determine to what extent, changes in,
cabin air pressure, temperature, rate of cabin air
circulation, the quantity of fresh air per occupant,
and humidity on current domestic aircraft would re-
duce or eliminate the risk of illness or discomfort to
airline passengers and crew; and
(3) to establish a long-term research program
to examine potential health problems to airline pas-
sengers and crew that may arise in an airplane cabin
on a flight within the United States because of cabin
air quality as a result of the conditions and changes
described in paragraphs (1) and (2).
