Peninsula Airport Commission

Peninsula Airport Commission, doing business as Newport News-Williamsburg International Airport, is a U.S. local government entity and airport authority based in Newport News, Virginia, that receives federal grants as a recipient under the Federal Aviation Administration's Airport Improvement Program and related aviation infrastructure funding streams, with no federal contract prime or subcontractor activity.

The entity operates exclusively as a grant recipient, holding 113 federal awards across its lifetime, all as prime recipient (zero sub-awardee awards). The vast majority of Peninsula Airport Commission's recent activity falls under two distinct funding streams. The first comprises facility infrastructure grants from the FAA's Eastern Region under CFDA 20.106 (Airport Improvement Program), including a $5.2 million project grant obligated September 11, 2025, to rehabilitate 50,000 square yards of general aviation apron pavement (Phase 1 of a 65,000 square-yard project with completion by September 10, 2029); a $7.3 million formula grant awarded August 22, 2025, to reconstruct 6,500 linear feet of Taxiway D and connector Taxiways D, F, and G (completion August 21, 2029); a $2.49 million project grant awarded September 11, 2025, for the same taxiway reconstruction (another phase, completion September 10, 2029); and a $245,533.68 project grant awarded May 27, 2026, under CFDA 20.117 (Airport Infrastructure Grants program) for taxiway reconstruction (completion May 26, 2030). Earlier awards include a $1.57 million project grant from June 22, 2023, to update the airport master plan (completion June 21, 2027), and a $1.8 million formula grant from August 25, 2023, to fund design-phase work for Taxiway D reconstruction (completion August 24, 2027). The second funding stream comprises COVID-19 economic relief grants: a $2.9 million project grant awarded January 12, 2022, under CFDA 20.106 for operations, personnel, cleaning, and debt service (completion January 11, 2026), and a project grant awarded January 4, 2022, providing rent and minimum annual guarantee relief to airport concessions (completion January 3, 2026).

Customer concentration is dominated by the FAA's Eastern Region as the sole source of recent award activity. Combined potential value across all 113 awards lifetime is $11 million, with $90.8 million already obligated. Awards per year have declined sharply — four awards in 2021 declining to one in 2026 — reflecting the completion or phase-out of COVID relief funding and the front-loading of recent infrastructure project grants. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal near-term recompete exposure. The entity holds no federal contract vehicles, parent IDIQs, GWACs, or BPAs; all activity is direct grant receipt from federal agencies.
