SALINA, N.Y. — The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) has awarded the Syracuse Regional Airport Authority a grant of more than $1.7 million for storage improvements at Hancock International Airport.
U.S. Senators Charles Schumer (D–N.Y.) and Kirsten Gillibrand (D–N.Y.), U.S. Representative Daniel Maffei (D–DeWitt), and Syracuse Mayor Stephanie Miner made the announcement Monday in a news release Maffei’s office distributed.
The federal government has now awarded more than $8 million in funding for Syracuse Hancock International Airport since July 2013. The Business Journal News Network estimates the figure based on grant-dollar figures provided in news releases that Maffei’s office distributed for the grant announcements.

The USDOT in late July awarded the Syracuse Regional Airport Authority a grant of $315,000.
The Airport Authority will use the funding to acquire land-easement access to properties in close proximity to the airport to remove trees and ensure safe takeoffs and landings in accordance with federal law.
The same agency in early June awarded the Airport Authority more than $1.8 million in funding for the construction of a new building at the airport, according to a Maffei news release.
Besides those grant announcements, the USDOT also announced more than $6 million in funding for improvements to Hancock Airport last summer.
It announced last July 23 a nearly $1.6 million grant to help the airport pay for the purchase of a sand spreader, a snow plow, aircraft rescue and fire fighting suits, and improvements to the airport’s runway.
Then, just over a week later, the agency announced a $4.5 million grant to pay for the construction of a new remain-overnight (RON) apron and a new taxiway to help keep flights on time.
