Oregon Department Of Aviation

Oregon Department Of Aviation, a state government entity and airport authority under the State of New York Division of the Budget, receives federal funding as a grant recipient for airport infrastructure improvements and as a firm-fixed-price contract performer for land rental and facility-use services to the USDA Forest Service and FAA. The agency competes exclusively as a prime recipient on full-and-open federal grant and contract work with no set-aside designations applied across its recent footprint.

The Oregon Department of Aviation's federal role centers on airport infrastructure modernization and preservation across Oregon's public-use airport system. As a grant recipient under the FAA Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.116) and Airport Infrastructure Grants program (CFDA 20.117), the agency has received substantial recent funding for runway and taxiway rehabilitation, pavement resealing, hangar expansion, weather observing systems, precision approach path indicators, master plan updates, and environmental assessments at nonprimary airports including Mulino, Joseph, Independence, Lebanon, Condon, Chiloquin, Aurora, Cottage Grove, Gleneden Beach, McDermitt, and Bandon. Representative grant awards include a $4.3 million Airport Improvement Program grant awarded September 5, 2025, for runway rehabilitation at Aurora Airport; a $2.864 million Airport Infrastructure Grants award from July 10, 2026, for Phase 2 hangar expansion construction at Mulino Airport; and a $693,747 Infrastructure Grants award from July 10, 2026, for runway and taxiway resurfacing at Joseph State Airport. The agency also received multiple American Rescue Plan Act economic relief grants beginning November 2, 2021, covering operations, personnel, cleaning, sanitization, and debt service costs across eight Oregon airports.

As a contract performer, the Oregon Department of Aviation holds a $100 thousand indefinite delivery contract with the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region (issued August 30, 2022, ceiling through December 31, 2024) for land use agreement services at Joseph State Airport. Under this vehicle and through individual purchase orders, the agency has delivered land rental and facility-use services to the Forest Service for incident response and natural resource management activities at locations including Lakeview, Springfield, and Baker City, Oregon. Recent purchase orders include a $30.5 thousand award from July 24, 2024, for land rental services related to the Diamond Complex incident, a $23 thousand award from July 23, 2023, for land and facility use at Bedrock, and a $14 thousand award from August 6, 2026, for land rental services at Wright's Spring.

Customer concentration is dominated by the FAA Northwest Mountain Region (90 awards) and FAA headquarters-level awards (51 awards), together accounting for 99% of recent awards; the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region accounts for 7 awards with $196 thousand in combined potential value. The agency's recent award portfolio spans 149 total awards across a five-year window with significant growth in 2024 through 2026 (10, 11, and 12 awards respectively), though combined potential value across all awards totals $202 thousand while combined obligated dollars reach $54.4 million, reflecting the large number of smaller federal grants and land-use contracts. Seven awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete opportunity for in-state and regional federal contractors pursuing Oregon airport infrastructure work. The agency operates as a 100% prime recipient and contractor with no subcontractor footprint in the source data, and does not hold positions on government-wide vehicles or commercial federal schedules.
