Cavalier Municipal Airport Authority

Cavalier Municipal Airport Authority, a local government entity operating Cavalier Municipal Airport in North Dakota, receives federal grant funding from the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Great Lakes Region to design and construct airport infrastructure improvements, serving as a prime grant recipient with no federal contracting activity.

The Authority is structured as a U.S. local government airport authority headquartered at 709 Airport Road, Cavalier, North Dakota 58220. All seventeen awards in the source data are federal grants; the Authority does not hold federal contracts, IDVs, or contract vehicles and does not operate as a subcontractor. The vendor's federal footprint is concentrated entirely within two related FAA offices—the Great Lakes Region and the main FAA organization—accounting for 100% of awards.

The Authority's grant work centers on phased airport pavement and lighting infrastructure rehabilitation funded under two primary FAA grant programs: the Airport Infrastructure Grants program (CFDA 20.117) and the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.116). Recent work includes a $144,210.53 Airport Infrastructure Grants award (August 10, 2026) for Phase 2 design of apron and taxilane rehabilitation, consisting of plans and specifications development for reconstructing 17,892 square yards of center apron pavement and rehabilitating 600 feet of taxilane north pavement; and a $178,816.84 Airport Improvement Program formula grant (August 10, 2026) for Phase 1 design and bidding activities for the same pavement work. Earlier phases of runway rehabilitation work include a $144,210.53 formula grant (July 22, 2025) for Phase 2 runway rehabilitation of 2,953 feet of Runway 16/34 and a project grant (July 14, 2025) for final-phase runway rehabilitation consisting of 347 feet of rehabilitation, site grading, and construction engineering. The Authority also received a $144,210.53 project grant (July 29, 2024) for runway design phase work and a $178,816.84 formula grant (July 17, 2022) for the final construction phase of an airfield lighting, guidance sign, and NAVAID reconstruction project, along with American Rescue Plan Act economic assistance (January 31, 2022) for pandemic-related operations and facility cleaning. All grants carry ultimate completion dates between July 2026 and August 2030, with only one award completing within the next twenty-four months. Combined obligated dollars across all grants total $4.9 million.
