House Completes Action on Two Bills

The West Virginia House of Delegates advanced Senate Bill 607 and Senate Bill 690 to third reading.

Senate Bill 607 would authorize airport authorities under state law to use project delivery methods in accordance with the Federal Aviation Administration. This bill would allow airports in West Virginia to plan and construct airport infrastructure projects funded through the Federal Aviation Administration’s Airport Improvement Program.

Senate Bill 690 would expand the options the Division of Highways has for highway projects and modify the money limits for the Highway Design-Build program. In addition to the changes to the Highway Design-Build program, this bill would also allow the Commissioner of Highways to enter into agreements that include the Construction Manager/General Contractor contracting procedures.
