HR 10233 United States House · 118th Congress

To amend title 49, United States Code, to clarify that noise abatement and lead abatement are not unjust discrimination for purposes of project approval for certain airport improvement program project approvals, and for other purposes.

This bill clarifies that noise abatement and lead abatement measures cannot be considered "unjust discrimination" when federal agencies review airport improvement project applications under the Airport Improvement Program. It directly affects airports seeking federal grants for projects like noise-reducing infrastructure or lead paint remediation. The key provision amends Title 49 U.S. Code to explicitly state that such environmental measures should not disqualify projects based on discrimination interpretations. The change ensures these common safety and environmental upgrades remain eligible for funding without unnecessary regulatory hurdles.
