THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Sanderson Field plans to acquire a Tenco SMI tow-behind airport sweeper/blower to use with an existing tractor. The airport is still waiting on vendor quotes and has not set a total cost or state/local funding split, so purchase details remain open. This equipment is intended to improve FOD removal, runway friction, and winter operations. Airfield maintenance equipment suppliers can respond early with pricing, specs, and financing or MDOT grant packaging options.
Equipment model is described as a Tenco SMI tow-behind airport sweeper/blower; funding and pricing to be determined based on vendor quote.
