Pendleton City Of Administration

Pendleton City Of Administration, doing business as Eastern Oregon Regional Airport At Pendleton, is a U.S. local government entity (city airport authority) that acts as a federal grant recipient for airport infrastructure and facilities projects, with no contract prime or subcontractor footprint. The entity operates Eastern Oregon Regional Airport in Pendleton, Oregon, and receives grant funding exclusively from the Federal Aviation Administration's Northwest Mountain Region under the Airport Improvement Program and related statutes.

The vendor's grant portfolio centers on runway modernization, taxiway construction, snow removal equipment acquisition, wildlife hazard mitigation, and terminal building infrastructure. Recent representative work includes a $1.224 million project grant awarded July 16, 2025, under CFDA 20.106 (Airport Improvement Program) for acquisition of snow removal plow and broom equipment, with ultimate completion July 15, 2029; a $300,000 project grant awarded July 2, 2026, also for snow removal equipment, completing July 1, 2030; a $159,505.26 formula grant awarded September 8, 2023, for design of 27,000 feet of wildlife perimeter fencing to mitigate airfield hazards, completing September 7, 2027; and a COVID-19 relief project grant awarded June 1, 2023, for taxilane construction, terminal mechanical system upgrades, and apron pavement rehabilitation, completed May 14, 2024. An August 19, 2022, project grant funds runway 29 reconfiguration and precision approach path indicator installation, with completion targeted August 18, 2026.

Funding is concentrated exclusively with the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Northwest Mountain Region, which accounts for all ten FAA-funded awards in the recent award history. The entity has received 116 awards total across its recorded history, generating $15.5 million in combined potential value, though $36.3 million has been obligated against that total. Activity remains sparse — one award in 2021 and 2022, two in 2023, one in 2025, one in 2026 — reflecting the project-grant cycle typical of airport authorities. The vendor is a child entity of the City of Pendleton, a U.S. local government.
