The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued a Federal Register Notice seeking public comment on proposed changes in the Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) program. At present, PFC funds may support rail projects that are on airport property only if they are for the exclusive use of airport patrons and employees.
The proposed change would expand the funding eligibility to include selected additional elements of airport rail projects meeting certain criteria, even if they are not solely for the exclusive use of airport patrons and employees.
The proposed policy change may provide greater access to US airports through intermodal transport connections.
