Airport Master Plan
The City of Pendleton updated the Airport Master Plan for Eastern Oregon Regional Airport (PDT) in cooperation with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to address the airport’s needs for the next twenty years.
The Airport Master Plan provides specific guidance in making the improvements necessary to maintain a safe and efficient airport that is economically, environmentally, and socially sustainable

Why It's Needed
Eastern Oregon Regional Airport currently provides the only scheduled commercial air service in eastern Oregon with daily flights to Portland International Airport. The air service is partially subsidized through a federal Department of Transportation Essential Air Service (EAS) grant. The nearest other commercial air service airports are located in Pasco and Portland. Additional information about commercial air service is provided in the Aviation Activity Forecasts (Chapter 3).NPIAS airports are eligible for federal funding of improvements through FAA programs such as the Airport Improvement Program (AIP). However, to maintain eligibility for funding, the FAA requires airports to periodically update their master plans as conditions change in order to maintain current planning that is consistent with applicable FAA technical standards, policies and regulations.This project updates the 2002 Airport Master Plan,2 which has provided the primary airport planning guidance for the Airport over the last thirteen years. As conditions have changed in recent years, the need exists to update the long-term planning for the Airport. In addition to addressing changing local conditions, updated FAA standards, current trends within the aviation industry, and the recent addition of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) activity has been reflected in updated airport planning. The 2015-2035 Airport Master Plan and Airport Layout Plan (ALP) replaces the previous master plan and meets the FAA’s requirement to maintain current planning
