Stemming from Obligations within the Airports Authority Lease

Article 11.B “The Airports Authority shall operate, maintain, protect, promote and develop the Metropolitan
Washington Airports as a unit and as primary airports serving the Metropolitan Washington Area.”
                                                                                                              3

Managing the Federal Government’s Assets
■ Reagan and Dulles Airports – federal airports turned over in 1987
  “Transfer Act” to MWAA to manage as “a unit”. Rationale:
       – Capital investments in the two airports needed
       – Access to the bond markets critical
■ Congress directed:
       – Reagan - short-haul, origin/destination airport
       – Dulles - long-haul, growth airport
■ Passenger activity at Reagan National was steady from1987 until 2000 –
  when Congress began adding slots and beyond perimeter flights.
■ In the past 25 years, the character of the two airports has changed due
  to commercial transactions and regulatory changes.

Discouraging New Flights at Reagan National
• Members of Congress regularly attempt to stretch the perimeter further.
  The latest attempt came just last week, when members from Texas
  proposed expanding the perimeter to include San Antonio.
• An attempt to add San Antonio failed last year, when it was blocked in a
  House Committee through the bi-partisan teamwork of Barbara Comstock
  and Eleanor Holmes Norton.
• It was killed again in Committee several days ago. Then it appeared in an
  amendment to a Defense bill, where it also was defeated. Currently, the
  Texas members are trying to push a perimeter-expanding amendment
  onto a bill in the Senate Commerce Committee.
• It’s an issue that never seems to go away and MWAA is working to defeat
  it again.
What Can You Do to Help?

Advocate to your appointing elected officials that they need to support
     “NO MORE CHANGE” to Reagan National allowing growth.
