Vernal Regional Airport Manager Ken Campbell presented to the Uintah County Commission on Tuesday regarding a project to run utilities to one of the new taxiways at the airport. Campbell explained that the airport has been approved for a $250,000 dollar Rural Communities Opportunity Grant and it will be used to hook utilities to a taxiway built just south of the operations building. The funds will install septic and water at the new Delta Taxiway and any leftover funds will go towards the installation of electrical and gas. The project total is $400,000 dollars with the $150,000 dollars in addition to the grant coming from the airport budget. Campbell also reported to Commissioners that they advertised for bids and accepted BHI to do the work. The Uintah County Commission approved the project for installation of utilities to the new taxiway at the Vernal Regional Airport.
