Washington, D.C. - Congressman Dave Loebsack announced today that the Muscatine Municipal Airport will receive a $3,747,117 grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grant program. The funding will be used for full depth reconstruction to rehabilitate 5,500 feet of the existing runway pavement that has reached the end of its useful life.
"Our local airports play a critical role in allowing our communities to grow, as well as fuel additional economic development in the region," said Loebsack. "I am pleased that Muscatine Municipal Airport is receiving this competitive grant, which will allow the airport to grow safely and effectively."
