This week, the U.S. Department of Transportation announced the availability of $5 million through the Small Community Air Service Development Program (SCASDP).  

SCASDP funding provides assistance to offer carriers subsidized air service to and from an underserved airport, an underserved airport to secure air service to and from the underserved airport, and an underserved airport to implement measures that will improve air service costs and availability of air service.  In the past, the SCASDP has provided support to airports located in the following RCRC member counties: Butte, Del Norte, Humboldt, San Luis Obispo, and Shasta.  Applications are due by May 2, 2016.  Additional information on the SCASDP funding can be accessed here
