Airport Master Plan meeting Feb. 25

T-O Engineers invite the public to attend the second meeting for the Hot Springs County New Airport Master Plan Thursday, February 25 at 6 p.m. at the County Annex Meeting Room, 117 N. 4th Street in Thermopolis. 

An inventory of the new Hot Springs County Airport’s airside and landside facilities will be presented. The inventory identifies the physical environment of the airport, such as soils and terrain and includes documentation of all major airport components, structures and pavements.

T-O Engineers said, “Identifying future aviation demand is a critical element in the overall planning process for any airport. The forecast process establishes the demand, which ultimately defines an airport’s ability, or lack thereof, to accommodate both existing and future aircraft activity. Forecast demand determines the type, size and timing of airside and landside facility development. Projections of aviation demand were prepared for the Hot Springs County New Airport Master Plan for the 20-year period through the year 2040. These projects, as well as the identified critical aircraft, will be presented during the meeting.”
