Tweed-New Haven Airport Expansion & Environmental Mitigation Plan
Tweed-New Haven Airport (HVN), through the Tweed-New Haven Airport Authority (TNHAA) and the New HVN LLC, are advancing a landmark infrastructure project that will modernize the airport and strengthen its role as a regional economic engine. As part of this effort, TNHAA and the New HVN LLC have submitted its environmental permit applications to the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP)—a pivotal step forward that underscores the Authority’s commitment to delivering one of the most comprehensive environmental and flood resilience plans ever undertaken for a regional airport in Connecticut.
These applications outline how critical infrastructure improvements will be paired with robust environmental mitigation, long-term sustainability strategies, and a thoughtful approach to engaging and protecting the surrounding communities.
