This bill, called the FROST Act, lets airports use Airport Improvement Program (AIP) funds to build and maintain storage facilities for aircraft deicing equipment and fluids. Today, airports can use AIP money for deicing equipment and structures used to deice planes, but not for the storage buildings that keep that equipment and fluid safe and ready to use. This change adds those storage facilities to what counts as “airport development” under federal law, so AIP grants can cover them too .
In plain terms, this helps airports in cold or snowy places keep deicing gear and fluids protected and on hand, which can support safer winter operations and smoother travel during storms.
