2026 DULUTH AIRPORT AUTHORITY RULES AND STANDARDS REVIEW

Proposed Draft Available for Public Review

Since March 2026, the Duluth Airport Authority (DAA) has been conducting a comprehensive review of the Rules and Standards governing business activity at the Duluth International Airport.

Following two initial public comment periods this spring and this summer respectively, the DAA carefully reviewed all written comments received and incorporated appropriate revisions into the 11-10-2026 Proposed Rules and Standards.

Before the proposed Rules and Standards are presented to the Duluth Airport Authority Board of Directors, stakeholders and members of the public are invited to review the revised documents and submit written comments.

Following the review of written comments received regarding the 10-14-2026, proposed Rules and Standards, the DAA carefully considered the feedback and made additional revisions to the document. The changes in this latest version create a Limited FBO category and create a distinction between the Limited FBO and a Full-Service FBO. The updated 11-10-2026 Proposed Rules and Standards is posted below for review.

Written public comment should be submitted before 5:00 p.m. on December 8th to be included in the December board packet. The DAA Board will consider the document for approval at the December 15th board meeting.
