It is the Department's goal to use the most effective means to maintain airports in full compliance of grant assurance requirements. Airports must remain in compliance with all grant assurances to remain eligible for grant funding from the Department. When the Department is working with airports to correct a grant assurance violation, the Commission, as the governing body of the Department, may elect to move the airport's compliance status to conditional compliance. Conditional compliance status means an airport may continue to receive grant funding in the future and does not necessitate the immediate removal of any currently awarded grant funding provided the airport is complying with the conditions that the Commission has stipulated and is actively working to correct the grant assurance violation. The Commission may elect to move an airport's compliance status to non-compliance if a grant assurance has been violated. Non-compliance status means that an airport will not be eligible to receive grant funds from the Department in the future and may, at the Commission's sole discretion, require the repayment of previously awarded grant funding.
