FAA Grants $3.4M To Flint's Bishop Int'l Airport
FLINT, Mich. --
The Federal Aviation Administration has awarded a grant worth more than $3.4 million to Bishop International Airport to renovate and expand the facility's terminal building.
U.S. Rep. Dale Kildee, D-Mich., announced the grant Wednesday.
Kildee said the grant will help improve the Flint airport and reflects its growing importance as a commercial hub.
In January 2009, Bishop Airport received a $6.1 million grant to help fund construction of taxiways and expansion of aprons at the airport.
