Airport TIFIA Financing Certainty Act

This bill changes the rules for which airport projects can get federal loans and other credit help under the TIFIA transportation financing program. It would make eligible any project that builds or improves aviation-related facilities and equipment, regardless of whether they produce revenue or are open to the public, if they support air travel, access to airports (including rental car and parking facilities), movement of passengers, baggage, or cargo, or airport safety and security. It exempts these airport projects from a general eligibility requirement in the selection process and from certain conditions needed to get a waiver. It also changes the threshold for a streamlined application process from projects with costs up to $75 million to TIFIA loans up to $100 million.
