A big announcement right now. Yes, we're going to join this news conference already in progress. Let's listen in right now. Uh Ingrid from New Haven works and Bill from Workforce Alliance. My name is Jorge Robertson. I'm the CEO of airports. We have proudly served HBN as the operator for more than 25 years serving as an established and consistent partner to the airport. In recent years, we've announced plans to take this historic airport to great new levels with the partnership of the mayor and our airport authority and many community leaders. We made HBN the fastest growing airport in the last few years and we have secured the approval of the FA to continue with plans to expand our runway, build a new modern terminal and continue to serve Southern Connecticut region which for too long had been one of the most underserved markets in the country. Today. We are here to take another major step forward a step that will make HBN an even bigger driver of regional economy for boosting tourism, benefiting local businesses and connecting, connecting this region more directly to the local communities and economies throughout the country. As we undertake that work. We are so deeply committed to growing sustainably. We are proud to have the fa approve our environmental assessment earlier this year. And as we grow with new partners, we will continue to focus on minimizing our environmental impact while maximizing the benefits of our community. As we look to the future, I couldn't be more excited for the continued growth at Tweed New Haven Airport. And I wanna thank everyone who has helped make this success possible with that.
