Evaluate the possibility of constructing a paved, BUI length runway
with a MIRL system and approach glide slope indicators along with a
paved taxiway (30O'x25'), apron area (10,000 sy), and airport light-
ing system.

This airport should be examined to determine if
it can be added to
the NPIAS.
The two radio towers located 7,000' southeast of the airport should
be relocated. Land should be acquired, and the
runway extended to a
BUII length (4,300'x70') complete with MIRL system
and approach glide
slope indicators. Widen taxiways to 30' and construct a paved apron
(10,000 sy).
