        Federal Aviation Administration Reauthorization Act of 2017

  SUMMARY

  S. 1405 would authorize appropriations, through 2021, for activities of the Federal
  Aviation Administration (FAA) and other federal programs related to civil aviation. The
  bill also would increase contract authority for the Airport Improvement Program (ALP).

  CBO estimates that implementing S. 1405 would cost $68.8 billion over the 2017-2027
  period, assuming appropriation of the authorized and estimated amounts. Enacting the bill
  would increase both direct spending and revenues; however, CBO estimates that those
  increases would be insignificant. Because the bill would affect direct spending and
  revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures apply.

  CBO estimates that enacting S. 1405 would not significantly increase net direct spending
  or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

  S. 1405 would impose intergovernmental and private-sector mandates as defined in the
  Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) but CBO estimates that the cost of the mandates
  on public entities would fall below the annual threshold established in UMRA for
  intergovernmental mandates ($78 million in 2017, adjusted annually for inflation). CBO
  estimates that the aggregate cost of the mandates on private entities would exceed the
  annual threshold established in UMRA for private-sector mandates ($156 million in 2017,
  adjusted annually for inflation).


  ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

  The estimated budgetary effect of S. 1405 is shown in the following table. The costs of this
  legislation fall within budget function 400 (transportation).
