PILOT AND AIRCRAFT PRIVACY ACT (PAPA) (S 2175/HR 4146)
Seek support from congressional offices in opposing PAPA legislation.
Legislation prohibits the ability of an airport sponsor to use ADS-B data for purposes of assessing or otherwise imposing a fee issues with legislation and impact on airports. e on any commercial or GA aircraft owner or operator.
The Port does not currently use ADS-B data to collect landing fees at HIO, TTD, or Atlantic at PDX. At Port airports landing fees are through FBOs or directly from based aircraft operators (Nike, Columba, Ochoco)
Prohibits officials from initiating an investigation of any person based exclusively on ADS-B data.
Requires a public-use airport to disclose the following information prior to imposing a takeoff or landing fee on any GA aircraft:
Efforts taken to reduce non-airside related expenses;
Efforts taken to obtain revenues from sources other than GA aircraft;
Total cost estimate of the airside safety projects that the airport sponsor plans to undertake, the amount or percentage of the fees imposed on GA aircraft that will be used to pay for such project, and an estimated timeline to collect such amount; and
An assessment of the impact of any fees on the health and vitality of GA and on pilots, students, charities, and businesses that support or rely on GA in the area of the airport.
Compliance would take resources most likely partially paid from landing fees causing more pressure of GA airport revenues.
Requires revenue derived from takeoff or landing fees to only be used for airside safety projects.
There is more safety critical airport infrastructure than just airside safety projects.
Takeoff/landing fees are needed to fund safety-critical airport infrastructure projects.
Congress has mandated that airport sponsors assess fees for operator use of runways and taxiways, as appropriate, to ensure the airport is self-sustaining.
Takeoff/landing fees are a critical source of revenue for airports, especially for smaller airports with limited revenue-generating option available:
Most GA airports have minimal opportunities to generate revenue from non-aeronautical sources. FBOs are often operated by the private sector.
82nd and AIRPORT WAY FUNDING
Make delegation aware of our $25 million Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) Grant Program application and welcome any additional funding through surface transportation legislation.
Airport Way, averaging 58,000 vehicles a day, is among Oregons busiest roadways. The Ross Island Bridge, by comparison, serves 56,000 a day.
Because Portland International Airport (PDX) sits at the end of a cul-de-sac, every person traveling to PDX must use this intersection, regardless of mode of transportation.
The challenge of growing congestion at this intersection was identified in the 2010 Airport Futures Master Plan.
As it stands, the signals cannot keep up with demand at peak times - of which there are at least five in a 24-hour period.
The solution planned reduces competition for the signal by elevating only the eastbound three lanes of Airport Way and merging northbound left-turners with westbound traffic without a traffic signal.
The total project cost is approximately $120 million. The Port BUILD grant application will be for $25 million. We will be seeking additional funding in the Surface Transportation Act and plan to cover the remainder with Port funding.
PDX is nearly back to pre-pandemic travel volumes and nearly 10,000 people work there. Every person accessing the using this intersection is getting somewhere with urgency - so it is critical that we address the bottleneck as we continue to grow.
SEISMICALLY RESILIENT RUNWAY
Make delegation aware of importance to entire region (including SW Washington) and challenges given total cost and limitations in existing programs.
The Port has invested nearly $1M in study and design.
Significant federal and state financial support will be required to fund the construction - estimated between $400M and $500M, depending on schedule and closure scenarios.
Although the Port has had some success in authorizing new federal dollars for the project by expanding eligibility of the Airport Improvement Program (AIP) to include investments mitigating seismic disasters, awards from this program would probably only be in the few tens of millions in any given year and the airport will have competing projects for these critical funds.
Recommended is a minimum usable length of 7,500 feet to support emergency response and long‑term recovery after a major seismic event.
The remaining portion of the 11,00ft runway would be rebuilt during recovery.
A 4,500‑foot length runway could support emergency response shortly after a seismic event.

WATER RESROUCES DEVELOPMENT ACT 2026 (anticipated)
Worked with delegation to educate the importance of strengthening language in WRDA26 directing the Corps wave the non-federal sponsor portion of confined aquatics.
The Dredged Material Management Plan (DMMP) refers to the plan between the USACE (Corps) and the non-federal sponsors to ensure that the Lower Columbia River (LCR) Federal Navigation Channel (FNC) is maintained and operational for another 20 years.
The LCR is a dynamic system that poses an annual challenge for the Corps to maintain the deep-draft FNC to the authorized depth of 43 feet and width of 600 feet. Sediment at the bottom of the LCR accumulates into mounds that can interfere with passing ships. It is important to have sufficient water depth for deep-draft vessels to safely transit.
The economic importance of the Columbia River shipping channel reaches beyond the PNW to Midwest as far East as North and South Dakota where farmers ship various crops from Columbia River ports to Asia and other markets around the world.
The Columbia River is the #1 US export gateway for wheat, #1 on the West coast for forest products and mineral bulk; #2 in the nation for soybeans and corn; 3rd largest grain export gateway in the world; and a leader in both auto imports and exports.
Confined aquatics are required as part of the DMMP as there is no available upland site for displaced material.
"Confined aquatics" most commonly refers to confined aquatic disposal (CAD) cells, which are underwater containment areas for dredged sediments.
Cost to the non-federal sponsors is $170M split between Oregon and Washington ($85M for each state). $97M of the $170M is for confined aquatics. WRDA24 language allows for the Corps to absorb those costs but does not mandate.
Without a mandate, the costs are unmanageable for the sponsor ports.
