Fiscal triad delivers for the Tyndall rebuild
The Tyndall Program Management Office is leading the effort to rebuild the base to meet the missions of today and tomorrow. The June 2019 Supplemental Appropriations for Disaster Relief Act increased the installation’s annual Operations & Maintenance budget by a massive 450 percent. Under the act, O&M funding assigned $56 million to sustain regular base operations while an additional $358.4 million allotted for Hurricane Michael recovery. In September 2019, the Air Force awarded the first two military construction contracts to begin the rebuild of Tyndall AFB – $11.8 million to construct a fire station and $17.6 million for an Air Battle Manager F-15 simulator building.
