The Autonomous Executive Port Commission (CEPA) is putting out to tender the construction and expansion of the Peripheral Warehouse and Warehouse for Airport Site Materials.
CEPA has announced that its master plan for the renovation and modernization of the El Salvador International Airport will be ready in November.
According to Alberto Arene, president of the Comisión Ejecutiva Portuaria Autónoma (CEPA), the plan aims to leverage more non-airport operations and will be executed next year.
A new wind farm and the expansion of the International Airport of El Salvador, are the first two projects to be conducted under this system.
"Today (yesterday) I called a meeting with the president of CEPA (Autonomous Executive Port Commission) and CEL (Executive Hydroelectric Commission of the Lempa River) to immediately structure the first two projects: the expansion of the international airport and the wind project which the CEL is working with," said Alexander Segovia, Technical Secretary of the Presidency.
Plans for the construction of the airport of Puerto de San José, Escuintla, are ready, and a partnership with the private sector is being sought to provide the finance of $140 million required for the project.
The aim of the construction of this airport is to relieve pressure on the air traffic in the terminal of La Aurora. Due to the fact that the necessary funds have not been obtained, the state is aiming to complete the project via a public-private partnership model.
They include the modernization and expansion of the International Airport of El Salvador, the concession for Port of La Union, and the generation of 350 MW of energy, among other things.
From a press release issued by the Presidency of El Salvador:
As of yesterday a tender was launched for the repair of the airport in Comalapa's runway, a project that will consume, along with another nine, 65% of the $58.3 million raised in a recent securitization.
The Autonomous Executive Port Commission (CEPA by its initials in Spanish) said the project also includes the rehabilitation of 240,000 square meters of road surfacing taxiways (alternative routes to the main runway), as well as other areas of the airport.
Mobile boarding bridges, construction supervision, air conditioning systems and runway resurfacing, among other things, will be put out to tender in March 2013.
Having raised $59 million through a securitization backed by future revenues, the Autonomous Executive Port Commission (CEPA by its initials in Spanish) now has the resources to start the Plan for Renovation, Modernization and Optimization of the International Airport of El Salvador.
In El Salvador plans are afoot to launch a tender at the International Airport at the beginning of 2013, after securitization that could take shape in December 2012.
Elsalvador.com.sv reports that "The Autonomous Executive Port Commission (CEPA) said yesterday that they will wait until December to securitize part of the revenue from International Airport El Salvador (AIES) and that it will be used to improve the facilities of this terminal. "
The CABEI has approved loans for infrastructure work in ports and airports, and construction of prisons amounting to $92 million and $71 million respectively.
A statement from the Central American Bank for Economic Integration (CABEI) reads:
In order to finance the redevelopment of Comalapa International Airport, a plan has been made to issue securities in the Salvadoran market over the next two months.
Without ruling out the idea of building their own airport terminal, the airline will wait to see how the modernization works initiated by the Executive Port Commission (CEPA) evolve.
Fidel Chavez Mena, vice president and legal representative of TACA, said that after meetings with representatives from CEPA, they have agreed to wait and see how the financing of the works evolves.
The Salvadoran Legislative Assembly has authorized the securitization of up to 20% of flows in order to finance improvements on the airport in El Salvador.
"Parliamentarians voted for the project, prepared by the Finance Committee, arguing that it is necessary to install air conditioners, modernize other areas, including the restrooms, in order to improve the quality of service to users", noted an article in Laprensagrafica.com
The government of El Salvador and AviancaTaca managers are working together to explore possibilities for the renewal and expansion of the International Airport of El Salvador.
Roberto Kriete, Chairman of the Board of AviancaTaca, said they are working together with representatives from the State and the Autonomous Executive Port Commission, to find a solution for the redevelopment of the airport terminal.
