I’m proud to lead this request to the FAA so the airport can quickly submit a successful application because this much-needed improvement will help our region prosper.” Duluth International Airport’s existing air traffic control tower is the 3rd oldest in the country and fails to meet certain FAA standards. According to data from the airport, DLH supports 6,230 jobs and over $760 million in annual economic activity. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T00:37:48Z |
