This project comprises of the construction, construction administration, inspection, testing, and other professional consulting services necessary to construct the improvements to portions of the runway safety area for Runway 5-23 and portions BCT’s open ditch stormwater treatment area adjacent to Airport Road that were proposed for design during FY2023. The improvements would entail potentially covering portions of these open stormwater culvert areas with underground stormwater containment systems or a comparable means for sub-surface water treatment and retention. The proposed project would help improve (by leveling) the terrain for RWY 5-23’s runway safety area and reduce the potential for wildlife attractants to this area that currently exists because of the open stormwater retention area. Along the landside, the repurposing of surface area currently serving stormwater treatment and retention would offer the opportunity for other revenue generating development or uses.
