SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FY 2023 FCT Competitive Grant Program
will be implemented consistent with law and in alignment with the
priorities in Executive Order 14052, Implementation of the
Infrastructure Investments and Jobs Act (86 FR 64355), which are to
invest efficiently and equitably, promote the competitiveness of the
U.S. economy, improve job opportunities by focusing on high labor
standards, strengthen infrastructure resilience to all hazards,
including climate change, and to effectively coordinate with State,
local, Tribal, and territorial government partners. Airports that
submitted projects under the FY 2023 Airport Terminal Program NOFO (87
FR 58897), that meet the eligibility requirements outlined in C.1., do
not need to resubmit under this NOFO.
A. Program Description
BIL established the FCT Competitive Grant Program, a competitive
discretionary grant program, which provides $20 million in grant
funding annually for five years (Fiscal Years 2022-2026) to sustain,
construct, repair, improve, rehabilitate, modernize, replace, or
relocate nonapproach control towers; acquire and install air traffic
control, communications, and related equipment to be used in those
towers; and construct a remote tower certified by the FAA including
acquisition and installation of air traffic control, communications, or
related equipment. This program also supports the President's goals to
mobilize American ingenuity to build modern infrastructure and an
equitable, clean energy future. In support of Executive Order 13985,
Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through
the Federal Government (86 FR 7009), the FAA encourages applicants to
consider how the project will address the challenges faced by
individuals in underserved communities and rural areas, as well as
accessibility for persons with disabilities.
The FCT Competitive Grant Program falls under the project grant
authority for the Airport Improvement Program (AIP) in 49 United States
Code (U.S.C.) Sec. 47104. Per 2 CFR part 200--Uniform Administrative
Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal
Awards, the AIP Federal Assistance Listings Number is 20.106, with the
objective to assist eligible airports in the development and
improvement of a nationwide system that adequately meets the needs of
civil aeronautics. The FY 2023 FCT Competitive Grant Program will be
implemented consistent with the BIL and in alignment with the
priorities in Executive Order 14052, Implementation of the
Infrastructure Investments and Jobs Act (86 FR 64355), which are to
invest efficiently and equitably, promote the competitiveness of the
U.S. economy, improve opportunities for good-paying jobs with the free
and fair choice to join a union by focusing on high labor standards,
strengthen infrastructure resilience to all hazards, including climate
change, and to effectively coordinate with State, local, Tribal, and
territorial government partners.
Consistent with statutory criteria and Executive Order 14008,
Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad (86 FR 7619), the FAA
also seeks to fund projects under the FCT Competitive Grant Program
that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and are designed with specific
elements to address climate change impacts. Specifically, the FAA is
looking to award projects that align with the President's greenhouse
gas reduction goals, promote energy efficiency, support fiscally
responsible land use and transportation efficient design, support
development compatible with the use of sustainable aviation fuels and
technologies, increase climate resilience, incorporate sustainable and
less emissions-intensive pavement and construction materials as
allowable, and reduce pollution.
The FAA will also consider projects that advance the goals of the
Executive Orders listed under Section E.2.
[[Page 67742]]
B. Federal Award Information
This NOFO announces up to $20,000,000, subject to availability of
funds, for the Fiscal Year 2023 FCT Competitive Grant Program. The FCT
Competitive Grant Program is a $100 million grant program, distributed
as $20 million annually for five years (Fiscal Years 2022, 2023, 2024,
2025, and 2026).
The FAA will consider projects at an airport-owned Airport Traffic
Control Tower (ATCT) that sustain, construct, repair, improve,
rehabilitate, modernize, replace, or relocate nonapproach control
towers; acquire and install air traffic control, communications, and
related equipment to be used in those towers; or construct a remote
tower certified by the FAA including acquisition and installation of
air traffic control, communications, or related equipment. To date,
there are no certified remote tower systems. The FAA is currently
evaluating this technology to assess its suitability for use in the
National Airspace System. In addition, these projects will also be
evaluated based on overall impact on the National Airspace System,
including age of facility, operational constraints, nonstandard
facilities, or new FCT entrant requirements. This also includes
applicable Executive Orders as listed in Section E.2.
The FAA intends to publish a NOFO annually to announce additional
funding made available, expected to be $20 million per year, for Fiscal
Years 2024-2026.

Applicants selected to receive an FCT Competitive Grant Program
grant will then be required to follow AIP grant application procedures
prior to award, which include meeting all prerequisites for funding,
and submission of Standard Form SF-424, Application for Federal
Assistance, and FAA Form 5100-100, Application for Development
Projects.
Airports covered under the FAA's State Block Grant Program or
airports in a channeling act state should coordinate with their
associated state agency on the process for deciding who should submit
an application using the procedures noted above. All applicants,
including those requesting full federal share of eligible project
costs, should have a plan to address potential cost overruns as part of
an overall funding plan.
3. Unique Entity Identifier and System for Award Management (SAM)
Applicants must comply with 2 CFR part 25--Universal Identifier and
System for Award Management. All applicants must have a unique entity
identifier provided by SAM. Additional information about obtaining a
Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and registration procedures may be found
on the SAM website (currently at <a href="http://www.sam.gov">http://www.sam.gov</a>). Each applicant is
required to: (1) be registered in SAM; (2) provide a valid UEI prior to
grant award; and (3) continue to maintain an active SAM registration
with current information at all times during which the applicant has an
active Federal award or an application or plan under consideration by
the FAA. Under the FCT Competitive Grant Program, the UEI and SAM
account must belong to the entity that has the legal authority to apply
for, receive, and execute FCT Competitive Grant Program grants.
Once awarded, the FAA grant recipient must maintain the currency of
its information in SAM until the grantee submits the final financial
report required under the grant or receives the final payment,
whichever is later. A grant recipient must review and update the
information at least annually after the initial registration and more
frequently if required by changes in information or another award term.
The FAA may not make an award until the applicant has complied with
all applicable UEI and SAM requirements. If an applicant has not fully
complied with the requirements by the time the FAA is ready to make an
[[Page 67743]]
award, the FAA may determine that the applicant is not qualified to
receive an award and use that determination as a basis for giving a
Federal award to another applicant.
Non-Federal entities that have received a Federal award are
required to report certain civil, criminal, or administrative
proceedings to SAM (currently the Federal Awardee Performance and
Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) <a href="http://www.fapiis.gov">www.fapiis.gov</a>) to ensure
registration information is current and complies with federal
requirements. Applicants should refer to 2 CFR 200.113 for more
information about this requirement.
4. Submission Dates and Times

E. Application Review Information
1. Criteria
Applications for FY 2023 FCT Competitive Grant Program will be
rated using the following criteria:
i. Projects must meet eligibility requirements under the FCT
Competitive Grant Program outlined under Sections C.1 and C.3 above.
ii. The FAA will consider timeliness of implementation, with
priority given to those projects, including ``design only'' projects,
that can satisfy all statutory and administrative requirements for
grant award in July 2023.
iii. ATCT projects will be evaluated based on the overall impact on
the National Airspace System, including age of facility, operational
constraints, nonstandard facility conditions, or new FCT entrant
requirements.
iv. Priority will be given to projects that advance aviation safety
or enhance air traffic efficiency.
v. The applicant should describe whether and how project delivery
and implementation creates good-paying jobs with the free and fair
choice to join a union to the greatest extent possible, the use of
demonstrated strong labor standards, practices and policies (including
for direct employees, contractors, and sub-contractors, and service
workers on airport property); use of project labor agreements;
distribution of workplace rights notices; union neutrality agreements;
wage and/or benefit standards; the use of Local Hire Provisions; \2\
registered apprenticeships; or other similar standards or practices.
The applicant should describe how planned methods of project delivery
and implementation (for example, use of Project Labor Agreements and/or
Local Hire Provisions,\3\ training and placement for underrepresented
workers) provide opportunities for all workers, including workers
underrepresented in construction jobs, to be trained and placed in
good-paying jobs directly related to the project. The FAA will consider
this information in evaluating the application.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ IIJA div. B Section 25019 provides authority to use
geographical and economic hiring preferences, including local hire,
for construction jobs, subject to any applicable State and local
laws, policies, and procedures.
\3\ Project labor agreement should be consistent with the
definition and standards outlined in Executive Order 14063.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Review and Selection Process
Federal awarding agency personnel will evaluate applications based
on how well the projects meet the criteria in E.1, including project
eligibility, justification, readiness, and impact on the National
Airspace System. The FAA will also consider how well projects advance
the goals of the following Executive Orders: the President's January
20, 2021, Executive Order 13990, ``Protecting Public Health and the
Environment and Restoring Science to Tackle the Climate Crisis''; the
President's January 20, 2021, Executive Order 13985, ``Advancing Racial
Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal
Government''; the President's January 27, 2021, Executive Order 14008,
``Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad''; the President's May
20, 2021, Executive Order 14030, Climate Related Financial Risk; and
the President's July 9, 2021, Executive Order 14036, ``Promoting
Competition in the American Economy.''
3. Integrity and Performance Check
Prior to making a Federal award with a total amount of Federal
share greater than the simplified acquisition threshold, the FAA is
required to review and consider any information about the applicant
that is in the designated integrity and performance system accessible
through SAM (currently FAPIIS) (see 41 U.S.C. 2313). An applicant, at
its option, may review information in the designated integrity and
performance systems accessible through SAM and comment on any
information about itself that a Federal awarding agency previously
entered. The FAA will consider any comments by the applicant, in
addition to the other information in the designated integrity and
performance system, in making a judgment about the applicant's
integrity, business ethics, and record of performance under Federal
awards when completing the review of risk posed by applicants as
described in 2 CFR 200.206.
F. Federal Award Administration Information
1. Federal Award Notices
BIL awards are announced through a Congressional notification
process and a DOT Secretary's Notice of Intent to Fund. The FAA RO/ADO
representative will contact the airport with further information and
instructions. Once all pre-grant actions are complete, the FAA RO/ADO
will offer the airport sponsor a grant for the announced project. This
offer may be provided through postal mail or by electronic means. Once
this offer is signed by the airport sponsor, it becomes a grant
agreement. Awards made under this program are subject to conditions and
assurances in the grant agreement.
2. Administrative and National Policy Requirements
i. Pre-Award Authority
All project costs must be incurred after the grant execution date
unless specifically permitted under 49 U.S.C. 47110(c). Certain airport
development costs incurred before execution of the grant agreement, but
after November 15, 2021, are allowable, only if certain conditions
under 49 U.S.C. 47110(c)are met [see Table 3-60 of the AIP
[[Page 67744]]
Handbook, FAA Order 5100.38 D Change 1, for a specific list of the
guidance regarding when project costs can be incurred in relation to
section 47110(c)].
ii. Grant Requirements
All grant recipients are subject to the grant requirements of the
AIP, found in 49 U.S.C. Chapter 471. Grant recipients are subject to
requirements in the FAA's AIP Grant Agreement for financial assistance
awards; the annual certifications and assurances required of
applicants; and any additional applicable statutory or regulatory
requirements, including nondiscrimination requirements and 2 CFR part
200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit
Requirements for Federal Awards. Grant requirements include, but are
not limited to, approved projects on an airport layout plan; compliance
with Federal civil rights laws; Buy American requirements under 49
U.S.C. 50101; Build America, Buy America requirements in sections
70912(6) and 70914 in Public Law No: 117-58; the Department of
Transportation's Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program
regulations for airports (49 CFR part 23 and 49 CFR part 26); the
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act; and prevailing wage rate
requirements under the Davis-Bacon Act, as amended (40 U.S.C. 276a-
276a-5, and reenacted at 40 U.S.C. 3141-3144, 3146, and 3147).
Domestic Preference Requirements: As expressed in Executive Order
14005, Ensuring the Future Is Made in All of America by All of
America's Workers (86 FR 7475), it is the policy of the executive
branch to maximize, consistent with law, the use of goods, products,
and materials produced in, and services offered in, the United States.
This program includes infrastructure expenditures subject to the Build
America, Buy America Act (Pub. L. 117-58, div. G Sec. Sec. 70901-
70927). The FAA expects all applicants to comply with that requirement
without needing a waiver. However, to obtain a waiver, a recipient must
be prepared to demonstrate how they will maximize the use of domestic
goods, products, and materials in constructing their project.
Civil Rights and Title VI: Recipients of Federal transportation
funding will be required to comply fully with Title VI of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964 and implementing regulations, the Americans with
Disabilities Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and
all other civil rights requirements. The DOT's and the FAA's Office of
Civil Rights will be providing resources and technical assistance to
ensure full and sustainable compliance with Federal civil rights
requirements.
Critical Infrastructure Security and Resilience: It is the policy
of the United States to strengthen the security and resilience of its
critical infrastructure against both physical and cyber threats. Each
applicant selected for Federal funding under this notice must
demonstrate, prior to the signing of the grant agreement, effort to
consider and address physical and cyber security risks relevant to the
transportation mode and type and scale of the project. Projects that
have not appropriately considered and addressed physical and cyber
security and resilience in their planning, design, and project
oversight, as determined by the Department and the Department of
Homeland Security, will be required to do so before receiving funds for
construction, consistent with Presidential Policy Directive 21--
Critical Infrastructure Security and Resilience and the National
Security Presidential Memorandum on Improving Cybersecurity for
Critical Infrastructure Control Systems.
Performance and Program Evaluation: As a condition of grant award,
grant recipients may be required to participate in an evaluation
undertaken by DOT, the FAA, or another agency or partner. The
evaluation may take different forms, such as an implementation
assessment across grant recipients, an impact and/or outcomes analysis
of all or selected sites within or across grant recipients, or a
benefit/cost analysis or assessment of return on investment. DOT may
require applicants to collect data elements to aid the evaluation. As a
part of the evaluation, as a condition of award, grant recipients must
agree to: (1) make records available to the evaluation contractor or
DOT staff; (2) provide access to program records and any other relevant
documents to calculate costs and benefits; (3) in the case of an impact
analysis, facilitate the access to relevant information as requested;
and (4) follow evaluation procedures as specified by the evaluation
contractor or DOT staff. Requested program records or information will
be consistent with record requirements outlined 2 CFR 200.334-338 and
the grant agreement.
iii. Standard Assurances
Each grant recipient must assure that it will comply with all
applicable Federal statutes, regulations, executive orders, directives,
FAA circulars, and other federal administrative requirements in
carrying out any project supported by the FCT Competitive Grant Program
grant. The grant recipient must acknowledge that it is under a
continuing obligation to comply with the terms and conditions of the
grant agreement issued for its project with the FAA. The grant
recipient understands that federal laws, regulations, policies, and
administrative practices might be modified from time to time and may
affect the implementation of the project. The grant recipient must
agree that the most recent Federal requirements will apply to the
project unless the FAA issues a written determination otherwise.
The grant recipient must submit the Certifications at the time of
grant application and Assurances must be accepted as part of the grant
agreement at the time of accepting a grant offer. Grant recipients must
also comply with 2 CFR part 200, which ``are applicable to all costs
related to Federal awards,'' and which is cited in the grant assurances
of the grant agreements. The Airport Sponsor Assurances are available
on the FAA website at: <a href="https://www.faa.gov/airports/aip/grant_assurances">https://www.faa.gov/airports/aip/grant_assurances</a>.
3. Reporting
Grant recipients are subject to financial reporting per 2 CFR
200.328 and performance reporting per 2 CFR 200.329. Under the FCT
Competitive Grant Program, the grant recipient is required to comply
with all Federal financial reporting requirements and payment
requirements, including the submittal of timely and accurate reports.
