Barnes County Municipal Airport Authority

Barnes County Municipal Airport Authority, a U.S. local government entity and county airport authority based in Valley City, North Dakota, receives federal grant funding from the Federal Aviation Administration for airport infrastructure maintenance, modernization, and planning as a grant recipient — 100% of its recent awards are prime grants with no subcontracting footprint.

The vendor's entire federal footprint concentrates with the FAA's Great Lakes Region. All 21 awards in the source data are FAA grants under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.116 for formula grants, CFDA 20.106 for project grants), plus one award under the American Rescue Plan Act Economic Assistance program. The FAA Great Lakes Region accounts for 12 awards and the FAA parent agency for 9 additional awards, representing 100% coverage of the vendor's recent federal activity.

Recent grant work spans airport infrastructure lifecycle projects at Barnes County Municipal Airport. A $335,000 formula grant awarded June 11, 2026, funds the final construction phase of a multi-phase pavement preservation project — resealing 16,082 square yards of general aviation apron pavement and joints, 2,011 feet of hangar taxilane pavement, and 360 feet of Taxiway A pavement, with ultimate completion June 10, 2030. A $380,000 project grant awarded July 27, 2025, funds reconstruction of an airport lighting vault building and associated equipment with completion by July 26, 2029. A $105,000 project grant awarded July 16, 2025, funds Phase 1 design activities for the same pavement preservation initiative, extending through July 15, 2029. Additional grants include a $355,041 project grant awarded August 8, 2022, to update the airport master plan narrative report and airport layout plan (completion August 7, 2026), a design-phase grant for lighting vault reconstruction awarded July 11, 2024 (completion July 10, 2028), and a $355,041 American Rescue Plan Act economic assistance grant awarded January 31, 2022, for operational relief, personnel costs, cleaning, and sanitization (completion January 30, 2026).

Combined dollars obligated across all 21 awards total $6.1 million. Activity has been sparse and episodic — one award in 2021, two in 2022, one in 2024, two in 2025, and one in 2026 — with only one award facing ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months (the American Rescue Plan Act grant expiring January 30, 2026, which has already passed the source date of July 15, 2026).
