Williamsburg-Whitley County Airport Board, Inc.

Williamsburg-Whitley County Airport Board, Inc. is a local government entity registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) since December 15, 2005, located in Williamsburg, Kentucky. As a county-level airport authority, the organization manages the Williamsburg-Whitley County Airport and provides critical aviation infrastructure and support services. The entity primarily engages with the federal government through grant awards, specifically focusing on airport improvement, infrastructure development, and emergency response initiatives.

The organization has consistently secured federal grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), primarily through the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106). These grants have supported diverse projects including infrastructure upgrades, environmental assessments, and pandemic response. Specific grant-funded activities include reconstructing weather reporting equipment (AWOS-III), constructing 300 linear feet of drainage improvements for erosion control, conducting environmental studies for runway and security fence areas, and building a 13,000 square foot, 10-bay T-hangar facility. Additionally, the airport board received COVID-19 related economic relief through the American Rescue Plan Act and Coronavirus Relief and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act, which provided funding for operational costs, personnel expenses, cleaning, sanitization, and pandemic mitigation efforts. The total value of recent federal grant awards ranges from approximately $115,000 to $356,000, demonstrating the organization's ability to secure consistent federal funding for critical airport infrastructure and operational needs.
