Reconstruct hangar

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded Superior Airport Authority a Project Grant of $467,368.42 on July 9, 2025, under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) to reconstruct an existing 10,000 square foot sponsor-owned hangar used for aircraft storage in Superior, Nebraska. The hangar has reached the end of its useful life, and this grant funds a portion of the total reconstruction project through the expanded eligibility provisions of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. An associated Airport Improvement Program grant will fund the remaining eligible portion of the project. The project is scheduled for completion by July 8, 2029.

As a local government entity managing the Superior Municipal Airport, the Superior Airport Authority will utilize these federal funds to support critical airport infrastructure improvements. This grant award reflects the FAA's broader strategic commitment to enhancing airport safety, operational efficiency, and infrastructure resilience across the nation's civil aviation system. The project aligns with the Airport Improvement Program's objective to assist airport sponsors in maintaining and modernizing infrastructure to support long-term economic benefits and the continued development of an adequate nationwide airport system.
