After an extensive RFP process, the award of the construction project was announced. The comprehensive project will include the construction of a new 180,000-gallon JetA Fuel farm on a portion of Atlantic’s expanded leasehold. Avgas and MoGas will also be stored at the new farm. Under the terms of the contract, AEAV will also decommission and dispose of the existing farm.
“This is a project of great importance to us”, stated AEAV President and owner, Dan Hirschberger. “We take a great deal of pride in that Atlantic chose to trust us with designing and constructing the new fuel farm. We look forward to getting started on this work. I am confident that the end product will be one that meets Atlantic’s needs now and well into the future.”
American Environmental Aviation was founded by current President and Owner, Dan Hirschberger in 1989. Over the past 17 years AEA has grown into a dynamic environmental services firm, specializing (although not limited to) the Aviation arena.
Growing steadily over the years, with locations now in Sanford, Florida and Wyandanch, New York, AEA has become the premier fuel farm construction company in the US. AEA is perhaps the only company able to provide the complete spectrum of services including: concept design, professionally stamped engineering blueprint drawings for permit submittals, component construction/fabrication, site work, installation and ultimately commissioning of the farm itself.
American Environmental Aviation has fuel farms underway or recently completed at Republic Airport (FRG), NY, Teterboro Airport(TEB), NJ, Reno Int’l Airport(RNO), NV, Houston-Hobby (HOU), TX, Portland Int’l Airport(PDX), OR and Greenville-Spartanburg(GSP), SC.
Fairbanks International Airport Baggage Transport Conveyor Enhanced With Mod Drive™ System
Airports face a host of unique industry challenges, such as meeting efficiency regulations and seeking out the best maintenance practices to reduce costs and keep operations flowing. In today’s current economic climate, any potential cost savings can go a long way.
In 2019, Alaska’s Fairbanks International Airport (FAI) sought to modernize its equipment and operations. They were dissatisfied with the performance of the gearmotors on their baggage transport conveyors and began searching for new suppliers. Regal approached FAI with a solution that could improve equipment performance and simplify maintenance, with the added benefit of energy cost savings: the Hub City® MOD Drive™ system.
