Introduction
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) developed the airport master planning process to assist the nation’s airports with expansion and improvement plans that meet aviation demand and safety requirements. The Master Plan for Billings Logan International Airport (BIL) will provide a development and expansion framework for a 20-year planning period. The goal of an airport master plan is to provide the structure needed to guide future airport development that will cost-effectively satisfy aviation demand, and considers potential environmental and socioeconomic impacts.
The consultants hired to assist the Airport with the planning process, Mead & Hunt, will conduct independent research and work with Airport management and the community to identify future needs and establish a solid long-term plan.
