About the company
Philadelphia Regional Port Authority, doing business as Philaport, is a U.S. government port authority entity based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania that receives federal grants to fund port infrastructure, environmental modernization, and feasibility studies rather than operating as a federal contractor. Philaport acts as a prime grant recipient across seven distinct federal agencies, with no federal contract prime or subcontract work in its recent award footprint.
Philaport's customer base is concentrated among environmental and transportation agencies. The Environmental Protection Agency Region 3 and the Federal Emergency Management Agency Headquarters Financial Assistance Awards each account for four awards (88% coverage across top five agencies), with the Department of Transportation Maritime Administration holding three awards. The combined obligated value across all sixteen recent awards totals $314.5 million, reflecting substantial infrastructure and environmental investment.
Recent grant work spans port modernization and sustainability. The EPA Region 3 awarded a $86.3 million Clean Ports Program project grant (CFDA 66.051) in January 2025 to deploy zero-emission equipment—ten electric forklifts, twenty-five electric terminal tractors, one electric rail switcher, and two electric ship-to-shore cranes—with thirty-six fast chargers, completion date January 31, 2028. The same agency awarded a $2 million planning grant under the Clean Ports Program in March 2025 to develop emissions inventory, emissions reduction strategy, and workforce development for the port, completing July 1, 2027. The Department of Transportation Maritime Administration awarded a $141.8 million Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects grant (CFDA 20.934) in September 2024 to construct a new 1,056-linear-foot RO/RO berth at Southport Marine Terminal with capital dredging to 36-foot depth, completion November 30, 2028. A second Maritime Administration grant from August 2024 funds construction of a 100,000-square-foot warehouse with rail access, modernized gate complex, and terminal facilities at Tioga Marine Terminal, completing February 28, 2029. The Department of Transportation's Immediate Office of the Secretary awarded a $1 million Cooperative Agreement under the Asset Concessions and Innovative Finance Assistance program (CFDA 20.945) in November 2026 for feasibility and business case development of the Southport/Mustin deepwater port site, running through November 1, 2029. FEMA awards include a Port Security Grant Program project grant awarded September 1, 2025, completing August 31, 2028. Award activity has averaged roughly one to three per year since 2020, with only one award facing ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.
