Operational expenses reflect an increase of $22,315,000 when compared to funds assigned in fiscal year 2011-2012 due to the implementation of the Freight Inspection System.
Resources from Special Appropriations were transferred to the Mayaguez municipality for the operational expenses of the Mayaguez Port.
The contributing federal program is the Airport Improvement Program to continue the planning and development of airports included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems. The Authority expects an increase in federal funds.
The amount of $64,255,000 from Federal Funds, Revenues from Internal Sources and Other Income is included for the continuation of capital improvements work, for example: repairs to the Pan-American Pier in San Juan, Sierra Taxiway Extension at the Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in Carolina and the Rehabilitation of Power Distribution Lines at the Ceiba Airport.
