The Airport and Airway Improvement Act of 1982 requires that the Secretary of Transportation submit an annual report to Congress describing the accomplishments of the Airport grant program. This report covers activities for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1990. A 'Declaration of Policy' section includes the following: Safe operation of the airport and airway system will be given highest aviation priority; Continuation of airport and airway improvement programs and airports are required to meet current and projected growth of aviation and requirements of interstate commercial aviation, postal service, and national defense; Provision of adequate navigation aids and airport facilities, including reliever airports and reliever heliports; Installation, operation and maintenance of precision approach systems, vertical visual guidance systems, approach light systems for primary runways and grooving or friction treatment of runways; and Airport construction and improvement projects which increase capacity of facilities to accommodate passenger and cargo air traffic.
