WASHINGTON, D.C. (WWNY) - Millions of dollars will land at north country airports.
U.S. Senators Kirsten Gillibrand and Chuck Schumer announced Thursday that more than $36 million is coming to upstate airports.
Of that, Watertown and Ogdensburg airports will each see $1 million.
The folks who run the airports say the money will go towards everyday operations and supplies needed to keep the airports clean, safe, and open during the pandemic.
“These added expenses of cleaning and sanitizing and janitorial services, this funding will help pay for those added expenses while our revenues are down,” said Grant Sussey, Watertown International Airport manager.
