A local airport is one of many to receive federal funding to help deal with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Pittsburgh-Butler Regional Airport in Penn Township will receive $69,000 from the Federal Aviation Administration through the CARES (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security) Act.
According to U.S. Senator Bob Casey, the steep decline in travel due to the ongoing public health crisis makes this funding assistance essential in order to help airports continue operations and save jobs.
A total of 63 airports across the state will each get a share of nearly $240 million through this $10 billion nationwide assistance program.
