Based on our review of 11 airports, we have serious concerns about FAAs and the airport sponsors inconsistent application of grant assurances and about Agency policies regulating the disposal of land purchased under AIP grants for airport noise compatibility purposes. In particular, we found that each of the 11 airports has land, ranging from nominal acreage at several airports to hundreds of acres at others, that is no longer needed for noise compatibility purposes or for airport development. While 8 of the 11 airports had disposed of some unneeded noise land, 6 of those 8 either did not use or could not document they used all of the proceeds in accordance with grant assurances. With improved oversight of noise land and its disposal, FAA could generate an estimated $242.3 million for the Trust Fund or for other noise mitigation projects at the 11 airports.
