The Bi-State Authority, which governs the Mid-American Air Center located northeast of Lawrenceville met this week and were informed of the completion of a major project.
Airport assistant manager Devin Hill told the board that the ODALS construction project was completed on time on April 25th. They are now waiting on a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) flight test and training for them to be fully operational. The flight will take about 2 hours and will cost around $7100.
Three bids were received for the hanger project with Precise Construction coming in as the low bidder at $1,296.368. They were taken under advisement for further study and review.
