"In addition, S&P affirmed its A long-term rating on the authority's $198 million in first senior-lien bonds and $765.2 million in second senior-lien bonds outstanding. The outlook is stable.
"These bond issuances are part of MWAA's plan to construct a $5.25 billion, 23.1-mile extension of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority's rail system. MWAA will finance the project with $2.9 billion in debt. On Nov. 1, 2008, the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) transferred operational and financial responsibility and control of the DTR to the authority for 50 years; as a condition to the DTR permit, MWAA has committed to finance and construct the Dulles Metrorail Project."
