摘要：	Of the approximately 1,230 facilities that FAA staff occupy, FAA is responsible for maintaining over 40 percent of them--spending over $1 billion since 2008; most of the remaining facilities are leased and maintained by the lessors. Yet, according to FAA officials, air traffic control facilities--the bulk of FAA-maintained facilities--have a current maintenance backlog of about $259 million. Deferring maintenance on facilities could compromise safe airspace operations. The FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 mandated that GAO study the condition of FAA-staffed facilities. This report addresses, among other things, (1) the condition of FAA-staffed facilities and the reliability of assessment methods; (2) the extent to which FAA has responded to identified safety deficiencies; and (3) the extent to which FAA's actions to ensure that its facilities are in good condition follow leading practices. GAO analyzed data and documents from FAA, the Department of Labor, and GSA, and interviewed agency officials and others, including union representatives.
