Airport Improvement Program

Military Airport Program and Reliever Set-Aside Update Gao ID: T-RCED-96-94 March 13, 1996

The Military Airport Program set-aside fund was created to help current and former military airports in congested metropolitan areas convert to civilian aviation use. Congress established the reliever airport set-aside fund to reduce congestion at commercial airports as well as provide general aviation with greater access to airports. This testimony provides an overview of GAO's work on the Military Airport Program and the reliever set-aside--in particular, two June 1994 reports (GAO/RCED-94-209 and GAO/RCED-94-226)--and updates the status of each program.
