Aviation System Action Program (ASAP)

Background

The Aviation System Action Program (ASAP) was created by the Oregon State Legislature in HB 2075 (2015) to invest in Oregon's public use airports statewide. The Legislature made the program permanent in 2021 (HB 2434) thus the fuel tax of two cents per gallon of Aviation Gas and Jet Fuel will continue to provide funds for grants.

Funding Programs

The ASAP Fund allocates and distributes the proceeds¹ from the fuel tax increase among three programs, in accordance with OL 2015 c.700 §7: COAR Grant Program, ROAR Program, and SOAR Program.

¹ _{After a 5% set-aside to the Oregon Department of Aviation for costs of the department and the State Aviation Board in administering the programs.}
