The American Concrete Pavement Association and Concrete Construction Magazine gave the runway project a national award of excellence in its commercial service and military airport program.

 

The award honors contractors, engineers and owners for outstanding projects complete in 2004.

 

Hector's primary runway was rebuild over a five-month span last year at a cost of $18.4 million.  The renovation project was the largest in the airport's history.

 

Minnesota-based Shafer Contracting Company and local firm, Ulteig Engineers worked on the project.

 

Last years winner in this category was for a runway and lighting project at Denver International Airport.

 

The Fargo Airport Authority will be honored at an awards ceremony at the Association's annual meeting in early December in Indian Wells, California.
