The project is scheduled for completion by August 26, 2029, allowing a four-year performance period typical for Airport Improvement Program construction and infrastructure projects. As the grant recipient, the City of Windom, operating through Windom Public Utilities, is responsible for project execution and compliance with standard FAA grant requirements, including periodic progress reporting and maintenance of project records for three years following final expenditure submission.
