About Hood River County Transportation District
Hood River County Transportation District, operating as Columbia Area Transit (CAT), is a U.S. local government transit authority and inter-municipal entity that receives federal transit grants from the Federal Highway Administration to fund regional public transportation operations, vehicle replacement, and mobility management in the Columbia River Gorge region of Oregon.
CAT's federal footprint consists entirely of grant work — no prime contracts or IDVs. The vendor holds one prime grant award, the $655,000 Federal Lands Access Program (CFDA 20.224) Project Grant from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) issued January 20, 2026, for the "OR FLAP Hood Multi(1), Gorge to Mountain Shuttle - Base Agreement" project running through March 31, 2028. This award supports transit operations and services providing access to federal recreational lands and rural communities within the Columbia River Gorge. CAT also receives federal funding through thirteen grant sub-awards, all passed through FHWA, dating from November 2022 through July 2025. These sub-awards fund public transit operating assistance, vehicle replacement (including two Category B transit vehicles approved in January 2025 and two 30-foot Starcraft Allstar XL vehicles approved in May 2025), mobility management, preventive maintenance of transit assets, and administration.
FHWA accounts for 100% of CAT's named customer agencies and all fourteen total awards (prime and sub combined). Combined dollars obligated across the full award portfolio total $3.5 million. Activity has been sporadic — two awards in 2021, one in 2022, five in 2023, five in 2025, and one in 2026 — reflecting annual appropriations and grant cycles rather than sustained contract growth. One award (the January 20, 2026 prime grant) faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and will require recompete or renewal by March 31, 2028. CAT's capability footprint is fixed-route public transit operations, vehicle acquisition and maintenance, and federal-lands-access mobility services for a rural region; the organization does not appear in federal procurement records as a service provider to other agencies or as a subcontractor on federal contracts.
