Abstract

Airport development is important to the State of Iowa because it brings certain economic impacts-construction and permanent jobs and consumption of local goods and services, among others. the more funds that can be received and utilized, the more growth will occur in Iowa. Two benefits provided by airports include: travel time saved, and cost avoided by travelers. A study like this is doubly important because any conclusions gathered from it can be applied to other areas-highway, rail, etc., since the funding processes are similar. Additionally, competition for federal funds is becoming increasingly aggressive and anything Iowa can do to increase its chances for funding is important. The general approach taken in the study includes the determination of the have and the have-nits states regarding discretionary funds. the, the indicated state were surveyed to determined if there are many significant differences in the way they apply for the funds.
