County Of Jefferson

County Of Jefferson, operating as Jefferson County Airport through its Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport Division, is a local government airport authority in Broomfield, Colorado that receives federal grants from the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration for taxiway reconstruction, drainage infrastructure, fueling facility expansion, and noise compatibility planning. The entity functions exclusively as a federal grant recipient (100% prime awards) and does not compete for or hold federal contracts; all 45 awards in the source record are federal grants under Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106), Airport Infrastructure Grants (CFDA 20.117), and related FAA programs, with no federal contract vehicles, contract prime awardees, or subcontractor positions.

Jefferson County Airport's federal funding footprint concentrates almost entirely with the FAA. The Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration and its Northwest Mountain Region office account for 38 of 45 awards (87% coverage by award count). The source data reports a combined potential value of $22 thousand across all 45 awards, though this figure conflicts with the obligated-dollars line of $77.3 million, indicating the potential-value field carries nominal placeholder values and the actual committed funding is substantially higher. Recent awards include a $2.74 million Airport Improvement Program grant (July 7, 2026) for reconstruction of 1,650 feet of Taxiway D, a $1.57 million Airport Infrastructure Grants award (July 7, 2026) for the same taxiway phase, an $800 thousand Airport Improvement Program grant (July 17, 2025) for fuel farm expansion with one additional fuel tank and apron pavement, a $6.11 million grant (September 11, 2024) for construction of a new 1,300-foot Taxiway O and reconstruction of 970 feet of existing taxiway, and a $1.56 million grant (September 11, 2024) for a Part 150 Noise Compatibility Plan study. Additional active projects fund drainage basin construction ($1.75 million, August 20, 2024), airport lighting vault replacement ($300 thousand, September 15, 2023), and taxiway design and rehabilitation work ($707 thousand, September 13, 2023). Grant periods of performance extend through 2029–2030. The entity also received American Rescue Plan Act pandemic-relief funding of $148 thousand in November 2021. Activity averages less than one award per year over the past five years; the source shows one award in 2022, two in 2023, three in 2024, one in 2025, and two in 2026. Jefferson County Airport holds no federal contracts, holds no positions on federal contract vehicles, and carries no federal contractor sub-award relationships.
