WASHINGTON DC (June 6, 2019) — Representative Dave Loebsack announced today that the Muscatine Municipal Airport will receive a $150,000 grant from the US Department of Transportation’s Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grant program. The funding will be used to rehabilitate 4,000 feet of Runway 12/30 and 4,800 feet of Taxiway B to maintain the structural integrity of the pavement and to minimize foreign-object debris.
“The Muscatine Municipal Airport plays a critical role in allowing the community to grow, as well as fuel additional economic development throughout the region,” said Rep Loebsack. “I am pleased that Muscatine Municipal Airport is receiving this competitive funding, helping the airport remain safe.”
