in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

This chapter's goal is to hand over the 2 Washington airports to a local authority through a long-term lease. Virginia and D.C. must jointly create that authority, so the airports can be run locally. The chapter doesn't stop the authority from later adding Baltimore/Washington International Airport to a regional system.

(a) General — This chapter's purpose is to let the operating responsibility for the 2 Metropolitan Washington Airport properties — as a unit, including access highways and other related facilities — be transferred under a long-term lease to a properly formed, independent airport authority that Virginia and the District of Columbia create. The goal is local control, management, operation, and development of these important transportation assets. (b) Inclusion of Baltimore/Washington International Airport Not Precluded — This chapter doesn't stop the Airports Authority and Maryland from agreeing to make Baltimore/Washington International Airport part of a regional airports authority, subject to terms the Airports Authority, the Secretary of Transportation, Virginia, D.C., and Maryland all agree to.
