Construct/expand snow removal equipment building

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), through its Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106), awarded a $2,279,027.37 project grant to Natrona County International Airport on August 14, 2025, to fund Phase 2 construction activities for a snow removal equipment building expansion project. The grant will finance the expansion of an existing 24,000-square-foot facility by an additional 10,000 square feet, bringing the airport into compliance with current federal standards. The project is scheduled for completion by August 13, 2029, and will directly benefit the Casper, Wyoming airport and its associated air transportation infrastructure.

This grant represents the FAA's continued commitment to modernizing airport infrastructure in the region. As a key component of the broader Airport Improvement Program, which supports the development and maintenance of public-use airports nationwide, the funding enables critical facility enhancements that support safe and efficient civil aviation operations. The expansion project addresses infrastructure modernization objectives while strengthening the airport's capacity to maintain snow removal equipment essential for year-round operational reliability in Wyoming's climate conditions.
