WASHINGTON — Two local airports are among the recipients of airport improvement grants announced Monday by the Federal Aviation Administration.

Chatham Municipal Airport was awarded just over $3 million to reconstruct 4,060 feet of taxiway and 320 feet of taxi lane pavement that has reached the end of its useful life, according to a statement from the FAA.

Nantucket Memorial Airport received a grant of $194,363 to make security enhancements.

The two facilities were among 354 airports across 44 states that were awarded the federal funding.
