Rehabilitate apron

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Northwest Mountain Region, awarded $157,894.74 to the Greeley Weld County Airport Authority on September 3, 2025, under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) to rehabilitate 18,000 square yards of existing apron pavement at Greeley Weld County Airport. The project will maintain structural integrity of the pavement and minimize foreign object debris, with an ultimate completion date of September 2, 2029. This award represents a partial funding contribution to the total apron rehabilitation project, with the remaining eligible portion funded through complementary Airport Improvement Program and Airport Infrastructure Grant awards.

The apron rehabilitation initiative supports the FAA's strategic objectives of safety and operational excellence by investing in critical airport infrastructure maintenance at a regional general aviation facility. As a civilian public-use airport included in the National Plan of Integrated Airports Systems, Greeley Weld County Airport is an eligible recipient for federal airport development and modernization funding. The project aligns with the Airport Improvement Program's mission to develop a nationwide system of airports adequate to meet civil aeronautics needs while supporting long-term economic benefits through transportation infrastructure investment.
