Baby boy, born 3/16 on maternity leave until mid-June Impact of Fuel tax revenue reduction Expecting significant decrease in fuel tax revenues, amount and duration unknown. March fuel tax #’s available mid-May. April #’s available mid-June, and will be the litmus test for how low they will go. We are guessing about 50% drop in March, and a 90% drop in April. Beyond April is difficult to estimate, depends on when distancing measures are relaxed, and how soon airlines resume prior schedules. 86% of annual operating revenue comes from the fuel tax 5% of revenue from aircraft registration 3.5% of revenue from leases 5.5% from fuel flowage, tie-down, special use, inspections, etc. These funds pay for agency operation as well as the grants programs. Annual operating cost (excluding grants and PMP) about $2.5M. Federal assistance for airports From the $2T CARE Act passed by Congress last week 1) $50B to airlines, $10B to airports 2) Of the $10B, $7.4B goes to the commercial service airports, $2B for AIP eligible projects, $500M for waiver of local match on 2020 grants, $56M for Essential Air Service, and $100M for NPIAS GA airports.
