This $2,151,130 project grant awarded by the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration (DOT/FAA) under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) will fund the reconstruction of 1,800 feet of existing taxiway pavement at the Waterloo Regional Airport in Waterloo, Iowa. The grant covers 83.63% of the total project cost, with the remaining eligible portion funded through an associated Airport Improvement Program grant. This work is intended to rehabilitate infrastructure that has reached the end of its useful life. The project will be carried out by the City of Waterloo, which operates the Waterloo Regional Airport. From 2020-2023, the City of Waterloo received over $12 million in DOT/FAA grants to maintain and improve the airport's facilities, including reconstructing and rehabilitating taxiway and runway pavement, upgrading the aircraft rescue firefighting building, installing additional security cameras, and enhancing the terminal's HVAC system. The grants also provided economic relief funds to the airport and eligible airport concessions to address impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.
