Washington, DC – U.S. Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) applauded the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) for awarding $239,063 to the State of Nevada to conduct a state system plan study and $225,000 to Gabbs Airport in Nye County for runway rehabilitation:
“Investing in our airport infrastructure is essential to maintaining Nevada’s connectivity to the rest of the country and the world,” said Senator Cortez Masto. “I am grateful that DOT understands this and I thank them for awarding these two grants to the State of Nevada and Gabbs Airport in Nye County. I will continue working to ensure additional federal funds like these are made available to provide reliable and safe infrastructure across the state.”
