Construct/expand hangar

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded $615,789.47 through the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) to the Middle Peninsula Regional Airport Authority on August 28, 2025, to fund the construction of three new 300-square-foot aircraft storage hangars at Middle Peninsula Regional Airport in West Point, Virginia. The project, with an ultimate completion date of August 27, 2029, is designed to enhance the airport's revenue-generating capacity and operational self-sustainability. This award represents a portion of the total project cost, with the remaining eligible expenses funded through an associated Airport Infrastructure Grant and local funds.

The hangars will serve as sponsor-owned facilities for aircraft storage, supporting the airport authority's infrastructure modernization objectives and contributing to the FAA's strategic goals of operational excellence and long-term economic benefits through transportation infrastructure investment. As a civilian airport facility included in the National Plan of Integrated Airports Systems, the airport will benefit from improved infrastructure that supports regional aviation needs while generating revenue to offset operational costs.
