Need Overview

Need Name: Rehabilitate runway
Type:
Funding Source:
Category:
Sub Category:
Estimated Cost: $4,933,000
Description: Resurface operational surfaces and replace airfield lighting. Heavy maintenance is needed at this airport for safety. The airfield lighting system has not been updated since the airport was constructed and is beyond its useful life (10 years).
Priority: Short
Need Origination: Inspection
Justification: The existing gravel operational surfaces (runway, taxiway apron) are in poor condition with soft spots, ruts, and potholes, requiring rehabilitation. The runway safety area is not adequately sized for the critical aircraft. Runway and taxiway lighting systems and visual aids are also in poor condition with dislodged and inoperative lights, exposed wiring, deteriorated wind cones, which now require replacement.
