of aeronautics in West Virginia and encourages the establishment of
airports and air navigation facilities.
Airport
Improvement Grant Program
The West Virginia
Aeronautics Commission administers a grant program to encourage and
support needed capital improvements to the state's public airports.
Airports meeting the criteria for Federal Aviation Administration
Airport Improvement Program funds also qualify for funding from the
state program.
Guidelines allow airports to
qualify for up to half of the local share required to match FAA
funds. The grant program is supported by the state tax on aircraft
fuel.
