The Yakima Air Terminal-McAllister Field is a commercial service airport which requires specific fire apparatuses in order to meet Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) safety standards.  Through close coordination with the FAA, the airport has identified the need to replace the 1986 Oshkosh T-1500 apparatus that has outlived its useful life.  This agreement will allow JUB Engineering, Inc. to provide project formulation, design, bidding services, submit a grant application, and a project closeout report in order to acquire an Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting apparatus. 

This project will be funded ninety percent through the Airport Improvement Program and the remaining funds will come from the airport's Passenger Facility Charge.  General funds will not be utilized to obtain the required fire apparatus.
