Bingaman: Clayton Airport Awarded FAA Grant

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jeff Bingaman today announced that Clayton Municipal Airpark has been awarded a $256,728 grant through the Federal Aviation Administration.

Funding will help with rehabilitation of Runways 2/20 and 12/30 and of the airport apron, which is required to preserve and extend the life of the airport pavement.

"Airports are an important economic tool, especially for small communities.  I'm glad the FAA is making this investment in Clayton," Bingaman said.
