Project Grant 348SBGP2462026

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded a Project Grant totaling $414,234.74 to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) on June 22, 2026, under the Airport Infrastructure Grants program (CFDA 20.117). This grant funds a state block grant program administered by TxDOT to distribute federal airport improvement funding to nonprimary airports throughout Texas. The grant supports the update of airport master plans and related planning activities that facilitate infrastructure improvements at eligible nonprimary airports listed in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems.

Through this award, TxDOT will serve as the designated administrator for sub-awards to nonprimary airports within the state, enabling participating airports to undertake eligible projects such as runway and taxiway rehabilitation, terminal improvements, hangar construction, and other critical infrastructure enhancements. The performance period extends from the award date through June 21, 2030, with an expectation that most airport projects will be completed within two to three years. This funding mechanism allows TxDOT to efficiently distribute federal resources across multiple nonprimary airport recipients while ensuring compliance with FAA requirements, environmental assessments, and federal grant management standards.
