CBO ESTIMATE: In addition to the provisions scored by OMB, CBO scores
a loss inrevenue related to provisions that would authorize airports to charge
higher passengerfacility fees and expand a pilot program that provides for the
use of federal airportimprovement grants to facilitate tax-exempt financing of
airport projects. CBO expectsthat these provisions will result in an increase
in tax-exempt financing and a subsequentrevenue loss.
