Ross Announces $150,000 to Improve Camden Airport
 
(Washington, D.C.) Fourth District Rep. Mike Ross (D-Ark.) announced on Friday that the Camden Regional Airport Commission has been approved for a grant worth $150,000 from the United States Department of Transportation. 

“This is wonderful news for both the Camden Airport and travelers throughout the region,” Ross said.  “This grant funding will allow the airport to make improvements to its runway lighting, install perimeter fencing, and to install weather reporting equipment that will allow any pilot anywhere in the sky to obtain current weather conditions in Camden.  These upgrades will greatly improve safety for passengers, pilots, and airport personnel, and will help the Camden Airport to continue providing excellent service to the region.”
