Although the Kamloops Airport didn’t apply for this year’s Airports Capital Assistance Program (ACAP), it will likely do so for next year’s round of federal funding.Projects eligible for funding under ACAP include safety improvements and operating-cost reductions. In previous years, Kamloops had successfully applied for federal dollars to pave its taxiway. This year’s round of funding was announced in Abbotsford on Monday, and included a total of $5 million worth in financial injections for several airports, including Williams Lake, Prince Rupert and Nanaimo.
