(2) Eligibility determination To be eligible for waiver under this subsection for repair or replacement of sound insulation treatment projects, an applicant shall— (A) ensure that the applicant and the property owner exhaust any amounts available through warranties, insurance coverage, and legal remedies for the sound insulation treatment previously installed on the residence; and (B) demonstrate that an FAA-compliant noise auditor conducted an inspection of the residence and determined that— (i) the sound insulation treatment for which Federal assistance was previously provided has resulted in structural deterioration that was not caused by failure of the property owner to repair or adequately maintain the residential building or through the negligence of the applicant or the property owner; and (ii) the condition of the sound insulation treatment described in subparagraph (A) is not attributed to actions taken by an owner or occupant of the residence. (3) Additional authority for periodic surveys Notwithstanding any other of provision of law, the Secretary shall consider a cost allowable under this subchapter for an airport to conduct periodic surveys of properties in which repair and replacement of sound insulation treatment was carried out as described in paragraph (1) and for which the airport previously received Federal assistance or federally authorized airport assistance under this subchapter. Such surveys shall be carried out to identify any properties described in the preceding sentence that are eligible for funds under this subsection. .
