The Alabama Asphalt Pavement Association presented the award for the design and construction administration of Bay Minette Municipal Airport Runway 8/26 Rehabilitation. This project included the rehabilitation (mill, overlay, and groove) for the runway and replacing the precision approach path indicators. The $1.45 million dollar project was funded primarily through grants awarded by the FAA passed through Alabama Department of Transportation Aeronautics Bureau, with the City of Bay Minette and ALDOT each providing 5-percent matching funds. The work was performed by Mobile Asphalt Company LLC.
