I wonder why ATL was not in that group?
Among the airports currently covered under the new rule are JFK in New York, McCarran in Las Vegas, O’Hare in Chicago, and Dallas-Fort Worth, as well as the airports in Charlotte, Denver, Houston, Boston, Miami, Philadelphia, Minneapolis, and “a handful of other locations.”

As the article says though, when your Captain tells you that "We are # whatever in line for takeoff" that this will just add to that time.
