Citrus County is soliciting bids for the replacement of Automated Weather Observing Systems (AWOS) at Crystal River Airport (CGC) and Inverness Airport (INF), with funding provided by Federal Aviation Administration Airport Infrastructure Grants and Florida Department of Transportation Aviation Grants, matched by County funds. The successful bidder will be responsible for the installation, integration, testing, and commissioning of two FAA-approved AWOS III P/T systems, while the County will directly purchase the equipment from manufacturers based on the bidder’s proposed pricing.
