Included in the Airport's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is the 2014 Sanitary Sewer Extension Project. The Airport's west end Office Building was recently remodeled to add more office space for the current tenant and the existing septic tank and drain field is challenged to handle the increased usage. This project will remove the existing septic tank and drain field and connect the building to the Airport's sanitary sewer system.  Also included in this project is a sewer upgrade for the executive hangar area, which will include the removal of an abandoned septic tank and an existing 4" sewer line, and the installation of a new 8" sewer line.  This project was advertised in the Billings Times for three weeks and was posted on the City's Web Site. On February 25, 2014 the following bids were received:
