Kerri Martin, State of Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities, stated the purpose is to remedy deficiencies and upgrade the Nunam Iqua Airport to meet current FAA design standards for A-II airports. This project is needed to address substandard operational surface geometries, settling of operational surfaces, the old age of airport facilities including lighting and the snow removal equipment building (SREB), and to stabilize and replace the existing segmented circle and windcone. PROPOSED WORK: The proposed project is anticipated to result in approximately 11.02 acres (approximately 160,800 cubic yards) of permanent fill in WOTUS. Permanent fill is required to; expand the RSA length and width, expand the TSA width, construct a new apron area and airport access road, and construct new pads and access roads for PAPI, segmented circle, and windcone. Permanent fill placed as a result of construction of the new airport access road will include culverts to be placed as instructed by the construction engineer in order to maintain natural drainage patterns and allow for equalization of water across pond features.
