O n m o t i o n of D r . D o n o g h u e , these r e c o m m e n d a t i o n s w e r e a p p r o v e d . Application for Federal Assistance for 1982 Airport Development Aid Program (24) T h e Illinois Department of Transportation, Division of Aeronautics, has reported that the following projects will be considered for funding in the federal FY 1982, in addition to the Airport Entrance Road Project reported to the board on May 20, 1982: 1. Drainage system including manholes, inlets, and branch lines to correct existing storm drainage problems. 2. Security lights in general aviation area. 3. Pavement overlay of T-hangar area; access road to T-hangar area; and access road to Hangar No. 2. T h e intent of the projects is to upgrade existing facilities in the light of Federal Aviation Administration standards. T h e total costs are estimated to be $376,000. The Division of Aeronautics has asked the University to apply for $338,000 in federal assistance, 90 percent of the eligible costs of the program. T h e balance, which includes the University and state shares, will be borne by the Division of Aeronautics. The chancellor at Urbana-Champaign, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, has recommended that the University seek federal funds for the projects described above. I concur. On motion of Dr. Donoghue, this recommendation was approved.

T h e project is part of the federal Airport Development Aid Program which has provided funds for a number of improvement projects at Willard. T h e cost of the project ($471,470) is to be met entirely with state and federal funds. T h e University obligation is limited to funds available on the project. In September 1981, the board authorized acceptance of the grant offer.
