The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), through the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106), awarded a formula grant of $619,458.95 to the Dubois County Airport Authority (doing business as Huntingburg Airport) on September 5, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of September 4, 2029. This grant funds Phase 1 of a terminal access road reconstruction project at Huntingburg Regional Airport in Huntingburg, Indiana.

Phase 1 activities consist of grading, drainage, and earthwork construction necessary to prepare the roadway for subsequent phases. The Airport Improvement Program supports the development and modernization of public-use airport infrastructure nationwide and is designed to meet civil aeronautics needs while providing long-term economic benefits through transportation infrastructure investment.
