Reconstruct hangar

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) a Project Grant totaling $1,123,661.05 under the Airport Improvement Program, Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act Programs, and COVID-19 Airports Programs (CFDA 20.106), effective August 27, 2025, through August 26, 2029. This award establishes a state block grant program enabling PennDOT to administer and distribute federal funding to nonprimary airports throughout Pennsylvania for airport infrastructure improvements.

Under this grant, PennDOT serves as the pass-through entity for federal aviation funding, with sub-award activities including hangar reconstruction projects. A sub-award issued on January 20, 2026, specifically supports the reconfiguration and rehabilitation of a T-hangar facility. The block grant structure allows PennDOT to allocate funds across multiple nonprimary airport locations within the state, supporting essential aviation infrastructure enhancements that contribute to the FAA's strategic objectives of safety, operational excellence, and long-term economic benefits throughout Pennsylvania's airport system.
