June 25, 2009

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Nevada Senator Harry Reid today announced over 1.2 million dollars from the economic recovery package for airport rehabilitation in Carson City and Reno/Tahoe International Airport.  This funding is being released from the Federal Aviation Administration and the Federal Transit Authority, and will go towards rehabilitating the runway and taxiway in Carson City and the apron at Reno/Tahoe International.
 
“This funding will bring much needed repairs to our airports,” said Reid. “We’re seeing yet another example of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act bringing money home to Nevada and jobs back to Nevadans.”
