Airport TIFIA Financing Certainty Act
Sponsored By: Representative Rep. Hurd, Jeff [R-CO-3]
In Committee
Summary
This bill would broaden eligibility for Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) credit for airport-related projects. It would redefine eligible projects to include building or improving aviation facilities or equipment regardless of revenue purpose or public access, and it would change waiver rules and loan thresholds to make federal credit easier to use.
Show full summary
- Airports and project sponsors: More types of airport work can qualify, including new or improved terminals, parking, rental car, cargo, baggage handling, and safety or security equipment. Projects qualify even if they produce revenue or are not open to the public.
- Borrowers and lenders: The bill replaces a $75 million project-cost trigger with a $100 million TIFIA loan-amount trigger, which can let smaller projects access credit under a loan-based threshold.
- Program rules: It treats these airport projects differently under several TIFIA provisions, removes specific waiver conditions for them, and updates language to allow a "Federal credit instrument" reference instead of only "eligible project costs".

Easier federal loans for airports
If enacted, this bill would let more airport projects get TIFIA credit. It would explicitly allow building or improving airport facilities and equipment to be eligible, even if projects do not produce revenue or are not open to the public. Eligible work would include projects that improve air service, access (including surface transport, rental cars, and parking), movement of passengers, baggage, or cargo, and airport safety or security. The bill would exempt these aviation projects from a general project-selection rule and allow them to get certain TIFIA waivers without meeting two current waiver tests. It would also change a streamlined eligibility test: instead of the old test that referenced "eligible project costs not to exceed $75,000,000," the test would be based on an anticipated TIFIA loan amount not to exceed $100,000,000. These changes would take effect upon enactment.
