Председатель комитета по транспорту и инфраструктуре домов Билл Шустер (R-Па.) рассматривает вопрос об отложении до сентября выпуска всеобъемлющего законодательства о реавторизации ФАУ, в том числе меры для независимой организации УВД. Ожидалось, что Шустер представит законопроект либо на этой неделе, либо в начале следующей, с полным рассмотрением дома в июле.
But the committee yesterday notified aviation groups that House leadership has delayed floor consideration until September, National Association of State Aviation Officials president and CEO Greg Principato said. В следствии, the committee might hold off on releasing the bill until closer to the scheduled floor time, aviation groups believe. If that holds, the delay would provide Congress with little time to pass a bill before the FAA’s current authorization expires on September 30.
The chairman earlier in June outlined a reauthorization proposal to create a user-funded non-profit ATC organization. While Shuster has not yet fully detailed his proposal, his ATC concepts have drawn substantial opposition from general aviation groups, FAA employee unions and Senate appropriators, среди других.
NATA president and CEO Tom Hendricks today told members the association is preparing for a letter writing campaign to Congress once details of the bill are released. “It is possible to develop and deploy cutting-edge technology within the government structure and this is already occurring at the FAA,” Hendricks said. “NATA has also been quite clear that it will not support ‘leap of faith’ proposals that place general aviation’s fate in the hands of a yet-to-be-determined board of directors and leave unresolved how general aviation will help fund the system.”
