The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority is an independent body
created by the Commonwealth of Virginia and the District of Columbia. It
has been approved by the U.S. Congress to operate and maintain Ronald
Reagan Washington National Airport and Washington Dulles International
Airport. The Authority is a public body, corporate and politic and is
independent of all other bodies. It is not an agency of the Commonwealth
of Virginia or the District of Columbia, nor is it a federal agency.

I wouldn't think that a likely scenario since the FAA doesn't
run/operate/own any airports.

I believe they operate Washington National (Reagan) and Dulles.
