Welcome

Welcome to the Rock Springs-Sweetwater County Airport's Master Plan information site. The airport is updating its Airport Master Plan, which will study the facility needs to meet forecast demand for the next 20 years, and ensure that the airport continues to act as a gateway and an economic catalyst for the area.

The master plan process is a collaborative effort involving the Airport Board and staff; local, state and federal government; and of course the users of the airport and community at large. This planning effort is necessary to ensure that the airport grows in a logical manner consistent with actual demand. Due to the dynamic nature of the aviation industry, this master plan should be viewed as a living document that allows flexibility with changing times. The airport's last master plan was completed in 2003. In order to allow the airport to adjust to industry and local trends, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recommends that airports update their master plans every 7 to 10 years.

This website has been prepared as an information portal so that airport users and the public can be informed and have a forum to submit comments or suggestions regarding the future of the Rock Springs-Sweetwater County Airport. By following the links, you will have access to study reports, airport layout plans, project schedule, and important news and dates. We welcome your comments on the comments page.
