“Federal dollars continue to support the construction of new storage space for airports in Virginia’s Ninth District.
“This DOT grant for more than $112,000 helps the Tazewell County Airport Authority deliver improved storage space to the Tazewell County Airport.”
This grant money was made available through the FAA Fiscal Year 2026 Airport Infrastructure Grant program.
