The Sound Insulation Treatment Repair and Replacement Program Act
The Sound Insulation Treatment Repair and Replacement Program Act, introduced by Rep. Adam Smith (WA-09), would allow the FAA to waive a rule that currently prevents federal Airport Improvement Program (AIP) funds from being used more than once on the same home. The bill addresses problems caused by poor-quality materials and faulty installations from early noise mitigation programs in the 1980s and 1990s, which left some homeowners dealing with mold, structural damage, and non-functioning insulation at their own expense.
