Reseal/resurface runway; reconstruct runway visual guidance system

The Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Northwest Mountain Region awarded the City of Albany $723,197.89 on April 30, 2026, under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.116) to reconstruct the Runway End Identifier Lights system for Runway 16/34 at Albany Municipal Airport and reseal 3,004 feet of existing runway pavement. The project reconstructs the REIL at both runway thresholds, which have reached the end of their useful lives, and extends the pavement's useful life through resealing activities. Performance occurs in Albany, Oregon, with an ultimate completion date of April 29, 2030. The Airport Improvement Program assists public-use airport sponsors in developing infrastructure to meet civil aeronautics needs and supports long-term economic benefits through investments in transportation, environmental protection, and airport infrastructure.
