The results of this project are presented in this report and can be used by the BOA and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to identify, prioritize, and schedule pavement maintenance and rehabilitation actions at these airports. During this project, the conditions of the pavements were assessed using the FAA pavement condition index (PCI) methodology – the industry standard in aviation for visually assessing the condition of pavements.
