INTRODUCTION This report satisfies two separate legislative requirements. The first is an inventory of the State’s general aviation facilities, both public and private, as mandated by Section 14-a of the Transportation Law, signed into law in 1995. The second legislative mandate satisfied herein is a report on the Airport Improvement and Revitalization Program of 1999, referred to as “AIR ‘99," contained in Section 14-l paragraph (g) of the Transportation Law. The Legislation established a State/Local grant and loan program for capital improvements and technical assistance at the State’s public use airports. Funding was made available for this program from the SFY 2000/01 budget. A listing of the projects funded and current status of payments to sponsors is included in Section V of this report entitled Airport Funding.
