Airport wildlife hazard assessment/site visit/management plan

The Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Western Pacific Region awarded $143,006.67 to Clark County Airport System (doing business as Department Of Aviation) on July 9, 2026, under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.116) to conduct an airport wildlife hazard assessment, site visit, and management plan for airports serving the Las Vegas, Nevada metropolitan area.

The project runs through July 8, 2030, with performance at Las Vegas, Nevada. The wildlife hazard assessment is designed to identify and mitigate potential conflicts between airport operations and wildlife, a formula-grant activity that supports the AIP's broader mandate to develop and maintain a nationwide system of public-use airports adequate to meet civil aeronautics needs. Clark County Airport System, a local government entity and child of Clark County, Nevada, receives the funding as a direct recipient and operator of multiple airports in the Las Vegas region, including Harry Reid International Airport, North Las Vegas Airport, Henderson Airport, and smaller facilities in Overton and Jean.
