Economic impact results from studies conducted by the Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC), for their seven airports in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul Metropolitan Area, are incorporated to provide a comprehensive summary of the annual economic impacts generated by all 133 public airports. Since a similar approach was used to estimate impacts for the MAC airports, the findings from the two separate efforts are combined to produce an overall statewide total, as shown in the table on this page.
