New York State Department of Transportation Aviation Bureau Airport Construction Project Files

The series consists of project files documenting airport design and construction statewide. Constituent groupings are fairly consistent. Each project file contains components for design and construction; federal aid/approval; engineering; and programming.

Records typically include contract agreements; correspondence and memorandums among state, local, and federal officials and private engineering and construction contractors; approved contract transmittals (from agencies such as the Dept. of Audit and Control, the Federal Aviation Administration, and various municipal governments); blueprint maps/plans showing projected construction (of runways, towers, terminals, etc.); engineering studies; property appraisals and copies of deeds (for land taken for airport construction); project applications for federal and state aid; and programming files (including documents on sewage, traffic control, and "land" matters such as grading, excavation, seeding).
