Bill Summary

A BILL to amend and reenact §8-29-8 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, relating to authorization of federally approved project delivery methods for airport capital improvement projects.

AI Summary

This bill amends West Virginia code to allow airport authorities to use federally approved project delivery methods for airport capital improvement projects, specifically those funded by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airport Improvement Program or Airport Terminal Program. This means that for projects meeting FAA design, engineering, and safety standards, authorities can utilize methods like integrated project delivery, construction manager-at-risk, design-build, or progressive design-build, even if these methods differ from West Virginia's standard procurement laws. The bill clarifies that procurement following FAA standards will satisfy state procurement requirements, providing greater flexibility in how airport projects are managed and delivered.
