# §151.71. Applicability.

- (a) This subpart prescribes programming and design and construction standards for projects under the Federal-Aid Airport Program to assure the most efficient use of Program funds and to assure that the most important elements of a national system of airports are provided.
- (b) Except for the standards made mandatory by [§ 151.72(a)](/cfr/14/151.72.md?p=a), the standards prescribed in this subpart that apply to any particular project are those in effect on the date the sponsor accepts the Administrator's offer under [§ 151.29(c)](/cfr/14/151.29.md?p=c). The standards of [§ 151.72(a)](/cfr/14/151.72.md?p=a) applicable to a project are those in effect on the date written on the notification of tentative allocation of funds ([§ 151.21(b)](/cfr/14/151.21.md?p=b)). Standards that become effective after that date may be applied to the project by agreement between the sponsor and the Administrator.
