The grant will go toward the cost of building the Ground Load Facility to allow for more capacity and ground gates.
The facility will be a 37,000-square-foot, pre-engineered metal structure that will be placed south of Terminal A.
It will include five new ground gates, an inspection station for international travelers, additional seating, charging stations and food and retail options. The grant was part of $5 billion allocated to the FAA in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which was passed by Congress and signed by President Joe Biden in 2022. Of that, $750 million was allocated to medium-hub airports.
