Rehabilitate terminal access road; rehabilitate terminal parking lot

The City of Riverton received a $1,006,591.58 formula grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) to rehabilitate airport infrastructure at Riverton's nonhub primary airport. The award, effective July 8, 2025, with a completion date of July 7, 2029, funds two primary infrastructure projects: rehabilitation of 350 feet of existing commercial terminal access road and restoration of a 7,700 square-foot nonrevenue-generating parking lot. Both projects are designed to extend the useful life of critical airport facilities.

These infrastructure improvements are consistent with the FAA's strategic objectives to enhance airport safety, operational efficiency, and infrastructure resilience. As a component of the broader Airport Improvement Program and Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act initiatives, this formula grant supports the nationwide airport system by addressing deferred maintenance and modernization needs at smaller regional airports. The City of Riverton has demonstrated sustained engagement with federal airport funding, having previously received multiple FAA grants totaling several million dollars for taxiway reconstruction, apron rehabilitation, and equipment acquisitions.
