The Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Northwest Mountain Region awarded County Of Hill $283,451.58 on August 25, 2026, under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.116) to fund Phase 2 construction activities at Havre-Hill County Airport in Montana.

The award finances runway, taxiway, and apron pavement resealing and runway lighting installation. Specifically, the project reseals 5,205 feet of Runway 8/26 pavement and joints, 3,699 feet of Runway 3/21 pavement and joints, 3,300 feet of Taxiway A pavement and joints, 1,660 feet of Taxiway C pavement and joints, and 300 feet of Taxiway B pavement and joints. The project also reseals 155,000 square yards of existing apron pavement and installs new lighting on Runway 8/26 to bring the airport into conformity with current standards. These activities extend the useful life of existing nonprimary airport infrastructure.

County Of Hill, a local government entity based in Havre, Montana, is the recipient. The grant funds a portion of Phase 2 construction; an associated Airport Infrastructure Grant funds the remaining eligible portion of the project. The period of performance runs through August 24, 2030. Place of performance is Montana.
