Airport Welcomes $4.55M in FAA Grant Awards

Monday, June 30, 2014

Governor Eddie Baza Calvo and the A.B. Won Pat International Airport Authority, Guam are excited to announce the receipt of two multi-year (2) Airport Improvement Program (AIP) federal grants from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the amount of $4.55M!

The first grant award is the second to the last funding series for the Rehabilitation of Runway (RW) 6L/24R (Phase IV). $2.95M was received for the continued rehabilitation work on RW6L/24R. Nearly $12M in federal funds has been received for this project and final funding is expected in fiscal year 2015. The expected project completion is pegged for the summer of 2015.

The second grant award for Phase III of the Installation of Instrument Landing System (ILS) Runway 6L. $1.6M was received as the final funding for the ILS. This award is on top of $7M that the airport has already received for this project, which has been completed with all components of the ILS in place and ready to support full activity on RW-6L after FAA flight checks have been completed in 2015.

Airport Executive Manager, Charles H. Ada II stated, "The Airport has been working aggressively to secure all AIP grants and use our federal entitlements to improve and harden our facilities. Once our primary runway of 12,000 ft. is fully operational, our airport will be ready for even more business, especially long haul service between Guam and the U.S. west coast. I think we are all excited about the possibilities that means for us, our airport and our island!"

"These projects will mean more visitors can come to Guam, and the airport can work to secure more routes to and from our island. I commend the employees, management, and board of the Guam International Airport Authority for committing to a better, more modern, more convenient airport. This facility is the first and last impression our visitors have of Guam. I'm proud to be a part of a team that is putting our best foot forward," said Governor Eddie Baza Calvo.
