136 STAT. 2031 PUBLIC LAW 117–169—AUG. 16, 2022 or displace, on a lifecycle basis, United States greenhouse gas emissions associated with air travel; (3) the capacity to create new jobs and develop supply chain partnerships in the United States; (4) for projects related to the production of sustainable aviation fuel, the projected lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions benefits from the proposed project, which shall include feedstock and fuel production and potential direct and indirect green- house gas emissions (including resulting from changes in land use); and (5) the benefits of ensuring a diversity of feedstocks for sustainable aviation fuel, including the use of waste carbon oxides and direct air capture. (c) COST SHARE.—The Federal share of the cost of a project carried out using grant funds under subsection (a) shall be 75 percent of the total proposed cost of the project, except that such Federal share shall increase to 90 percent of the total proposed cost of the project if the eligible entity is a small hub airport or nonhub airport, as such terms are defined in section 47102 of title 49, United States Code. (d) FUEL EMISSIONS REDUCTION TEST.—For purposes of clause (ii) of subsection (e)(7)(E), the Secretary shall, not later than 2 years after the date of enactment of this section, adopt at least 1 methodology for testing lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions that meets the requirements of such clause. (e) DEFINITIONS.—In this section: (1) ELIGIBLE ENTITY.—The term ‘‘eligible entity’’ means— (A) a State or local government, including the District of Columbia, other than an airport sponsor; (B) an air carrier; (C) an airport sponsor; (D) an accredited institution of higher education; (E) a research institution; (F) a person or entity engaged in the production, transportation, blending, or storage of sustainable aviation fuel in the United States or feedstocks in the United States that could be used to produce sustainable aviation fuel; (G) a person or entity engaged in the development, demonstration, or application of low-emission aviation tech- nologies; or (H) nonprofit entities or nonprofit consortia with experience in sustainable aviation fuels, low-emission avia- tion technologies, or other clean transportation research programs. (2) FEEDSTOCK.—The term ‘‘feedstock’’ means sources of hydrogen and carbon not originating from unrefined or refined petrochemicals. (3) INDUCED LAND-USE CHANGE VALUES.—The term ‘‘induced land-use change values’’ means the greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the conversion of land to the produc- tion of feedstocks and from the conversion of other land due to the displacement of crops or animals for which the original land was previously used. (4) LIFECYCLE GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS.—The term ‘‘lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions’’ means the combined green- house gas emissions from feedstock production, collection of Deadline.
