Hawaii To Get $5.5M For Airports

By /
Hawaii’s congressional delegation announced on Tuesday that the state will receive $5.5 million for airport repairs on Oahu, Kauai and the Big Island.

The money comes through a series of Federal Aviation Administration grants, according to a statement released by the delegates’ offices.

A significant portion of the grant — nearly $2.3 million — will be used to repair the 11,000-foot runway at Kona International Airport.
