AIG Funds for GA Airports- Letter from NCDOT Division of Aviation
N.C. General Aviation Airport Colleagues,
Your NCAA Board at our quarterly meeting had a robust discussion with NCDOT Division of Aviation about a variety of issues, including our state’s drawdown of federal Airport Infrastructure Grants funds (AIG).
That discussion prompts me to write and ask that general aviation airports request your AIG funds from NCDOT Aviation as soon as possible, if you have not already. (NCDOT applies for AIG funds on behalf of GA airports. Commercial service airports apply for and receive and receive AIG funds directly from FAA).
As of today, N.C. general airports have requested only $6.5 million of the $37.9 million in AIG funds available to them. Only $1.5 million has been awarded and only $142,000 expended. North Carolina has one of the lowest AIG application rates of any state. And because of this, in the last month, NCDOT has received inquiries about it from the N.C. General Assembly, FAA and Board of Transportation.
Our airports have enjoyed tremendous funding support in recent years. It is imperative that we show our stakeholders we are effectively using the funds we receive, from all sources, to deliver a stronger system of public airports for our communities.
If you need guidance on requesting funds, refer to the AIG collection guidance posted on the NCDOT Connect site, the slides from the March training or the email each airport received in April showing the balance of funds you are eligible to request. And, as always, feel free to contact your airport project manager for assistance determining what projects are suitable for these funds and how to request them.
Thank you for your attention to this request and for all of your efforts to demonstrate the value of public investment in North Carolina’s airport system.
A note from our Business Manager, Emily Winberg
