The feds are moving to plug the security gaps at San Jose's international airport.
The Federal Aviation Administration is awarding Mineta San José International Airport a grant of $3.4 million.
The airport has seen several incidents since last year, when a teenager stowed away in an airplane wheel well.
The money will allow SJC to better secure its 8,600-feet of perimeter, including raising the fence to 10-feet-high and topping it with razor wire.
There will also be unspecified high-tech improvements.
The new fence should be finished by May 2016.
