Opportunity Information: Apply for FAA ARP BIL G 23 002

The FY 2024 Notice of Funding Opportunity for the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) Airport Terminal Program (ATP) is a discretionary federal grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) through the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). It makes roughly 1 billion dollars available in FY 2024 to support airport terminal development and airport-owned air traffic control tower projects. The core goal is to tackle aging airport infrastructure across the national airport system by funding modernization and improvement projects that keep terminals and related facilities functional, safe, and capable of meeting current and future demand.

This funding is authorized under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021 (IIJA), Public Law 117-58, commonly referred to as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. The FAA positions the program as part of a broader federal push to reinvest in critical transportation infrastructure, and the NOFO ties the program to DOTs FY 2022-2026 Strategic Framework. In practice, applicants should expect the FAA to look for projects that are not only construction-ready and justified, but that also reflect federal priorities around effective public investment, equitable outcomes, economic competitiveness, and long-term resilience.

The program is explicitly aligned with Executive Order 14052, which focuses on implementing IIJA investments efficiently and equitably, strengthening U.S. economic competitiveness, improving job opportunities with an emphasis on strong labor standards, and building infrastructure that can withstand hazards including climate change. The NOFO also highlights coordination with state, local, Tribal, and territorial partners, signaling that partnerships, regional planning alignment, and community considerations can matter in how projects are framed and advanced.

Eligible applicants generally mirror those that can receive FAA Airport Improvement Program (AIP) discretionary grants under 49 U.S.C. 47115. That includes airport sponsors such as public agencies (for example, cities, counties, or airport authorities), private entities in certain sponsor roles, state agencies, and federally recognized Tribes or Pueblos that own public-use airports included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS). The eligibility list also includes certain unique entities and jurisdictions referenced in federal aviation law and policy, including the Secretary of the Interior for the Midway Island airport and certain Freely Associated States (the Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, and the Republic of Palau). The FAA points applicants to the AIP Handbook (Order 5100.38D, Change 1), specifically Table 2-1, for detailed sponsor categories and clarifications, and to FAA resources explaining the NPIAS for confirmation that an airport is within the eligible national planning framework.

From a funding and administrative standpoint, this opportunity is a discretionary grant (not a formula allocation), meaning projects compete against each other and selection depends on how well proposals meet the programs objectives and evaluation criteria described in the full NOFO. The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number FAA-ARP-BIL-G-23-002 and uses CFDA number 20.106. The eligible applicant types shown in the listing include state governments, county governments, city or township governments, special district governments, and other eligible entities consistent with AIP sponsor eligibility. The posted maximum award amount (award ceiling) is 970,000,000 dollars, reflecting that very large awards are possible depending on project scope, though actual award sizes typically vary widely based on need, readiness, and program balance. The original application closing date shown is October 16, 2023, with the opportunity created on September 14, 2023.

Overall, the FY 2024 ATP NOFO is best understood as a major FAA funding channel for terminals and certain tower-related projects that modernize and rehabilitate airport landside and terminal-area infrastructure, while also advancing the federal governments current priorities on equity, jobs and labor, climate and hazard resilience, and coordinated delivery with public-sector partners. For precise eligible project types, cost eligibility, match requirements, selection criteria, and submission instructions, applicants are expected to rely on the full text of the FY 2024 NOFO and the referenced AIP Handbook guidance.
