Organization:

Greater Orlando Aviation Authority

Project Title:

Orlando Executive Airport Herndon Avenue Drainage Improvements

Date Submitted:

Sponsors:

Buddy Dyer

Statewide Interest:

Orlando Executive Airport has been selected to serve as the "host airport" for the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) annual convention in 2002, 2003, 2006. The Association hopes to select Orlando to serve again in 2007, 2011; however, the location choice for those years has not been finalized.� Orlando only received the 2002 opportunity after conference organizers canceled their original conventions site in Los Angeles.� With over 30,000 in attendance, this event represents the largest annual gathering of aviation professionals (pilots, corporate executives, mechanics, etc.) in the United States.� NBAA's static display is located at OEA and all conference meetings and exhibitions are held at the Orange County Convention Center.� FDOT has provided some funding toward these improvements.� However, having 4 commercial airports and 15 general aviation airports within their jurisdiction, District 5 currently does not have enough resources available to fund the project at this time.

Project Description:

To serve long-term drainage needs and to support future land development in its north quadrant, the airport requires permanent stormwater runoff-related facility improvements.� Specific improvements include new drainage ponds, removal of temporary ponds, new stormwater piping, new pumping equipment, utility relocation and roadway modifications.� Drainage improvements are required to satisfy FAA requirements.

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

These improvements will provide substantial economic benefit to our community and state by ensuring that Orlando Executive Airport can provide the highest standard of service to NBAA and encourage them to hold future conventions in Orlando.
