Construct deicing pad and containment facility

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), through its Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106), awarded $18.87 million to Jackson Hole Airport Board on September 19, 2025, for the construction of airport infrastructure at Jackson Hole Airport in Jackson, Wyoming. This project grant funds Phase 4 of a deicing pad development initiative, which encompasses the construction of a 94,000 square foot public-use deicing pad with an integrated containment facility and associated equipment. The project is scheduled for completion by September 18, 2029.

The deicing pad and containment facility represent critical infrastructure investments that support the FAA's strategic objectives of safety, operational excellence, and long-term economic benefits for regional aviation. The containment system is designed to manage environmental compliance requirements associated with aircraft deicing operations. As a not-for-profit regional airport authority, Jackson Hole Airport Board has been a significant recipient of FAA Airport Improvement Program grants, with this award reflecting the agency's continued commitment to modernizing airport infrastructure systems across the United States to maintain adequate public-use airport facilities for civil aeronautics needs.
