A Building Permit is required for all new construction, renovation, alteration, structural demolition, signage, site improvement work, or any installation that affects the existing electrical, mechanical, plumbing, or structural systems.

The Fairbanks International Airport works with airport tenants and construction contractors to make sure that all work performed on State-owned airport property is properly permitted.

Engage airport staff early and submit complete project information in application as soon as practicable and provide sufficient detail to depict the proposed project. Early coordination supports timely airport, FAA, right-of-way, State & Federal environmental laws, and other required reviews. Incomplete or delayed information may affect the project schedule.

State approval of this permit constitutes only an authorization to proceed with construction and does not represent an adequate analysis of the applicant's proposed structural designs. Construction must be accomplished in accordance with all applicable local, State, and national codes, to include the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Compliance with applicable codes is the responsibility of the applicant. Any deviations from approved construction plans in this permit must have the prior written approval of the State.

A complete permit application with all required documents can be submitted to the Fairbanks International Airport Permits Office by email at fai.permits@alaska.gov.
