Pitt-Greenville Airport Authority

Pitt-Greenville Airport Authority, a U.S. local government airport authority headquartered in Greenville, North Carolina, serves the federal government as a recipient of federal aviation infrastructure grants from the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), not as a contractor or subcontractor. The authority operates exclusively as a prime grant recipient with no contract prime or subcontract footprint in the federal system.

Pitt-Greenville Airport Authority's federal grant work centers on airport infrastructure rehabilitation and modernization under two primary FAA funding streams. The authority holds recent and active grants under the Airport Infrastructure Grants program (CFDA 20.117), the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.116), and traditional AIP funding (CFDA 20.106), with all awards issued by the FAA Southern Region. Grant work includes perimeter security fencing reconstruction to meet 49 CFR 1542 compliance standards, runway and taxiway rehabilitation, taxiway lighting system upgrades, and the design and construction of aircraft hangars. Representative recent work includes an $4.077 million project grant awarded August 25, 2026, for Phase 3 perimeter security fencing reconstruction (750 feet of 15,585 feet total), a new 1,100-foot paved service road, and a 1,150-foot north apron taxilane, with ultimate completion August 24, 2030; a $583,631.58 formula grant awarded May 27, 2026, for final-phase perimeter security fencing reconstruction (4,835 linear feet), completing August 26, 2030; and a $469,000 project grant awarded August 5, 2025, for runway rehabilitation design (4,997 feet of Runway 8-26), completing August 4, 2029. Earlier grant work included COVID-19 relief funding (January 6, 2022) for construction of five aircraft hangars (four 13,200 square-foot units and one 6,400 square-foot unit) to support airport revenue generation.

The authority's federal footprint is concentrated with the FAA Southern Region, which issued 18 awards in the source data, alongside supplementary facility leasing and security awards from the General Services Administration and the Department of Homeland Security Transportation Security Administration. Recent activity shows two awards in 2025 and two in 2026, with eight awards carrying ultimate completion dates through 2030, indicating active ongoing portfolio management and sustained recompete opportunity within the FAA grant cycle. All work is performed at Pitt-Greenville Airport in Greenville, North Carolina.
