KBJC - Basin 160 Stormwater Improvements and Upcoming Runway Closures

Published on 1/3/2025
RMMA has received FAA grant funding for improvements to the stormwater basin that lies between the parallel runways. These improvements are necessary to adequately detain stormwater flows from the southside of the airfield.

Esco Construction, the selected contractor, will be performing grading work and installing a concrete outlet structure as part of these improvements. The entire construction period is expected to take approximately 45 days, beginning on January 6.

As part of this project, Runway 30L/12R will be closed periodically to accommodate construction activities. The first full closure of 30L/12R is expected to occur January 6 - January 10. There will be other one-to-two day closures in mid-January through February.
