Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) Test Range

Pendleton UAS Test Range. In 2019, the Greater Eastern Oregon Development Corporation (GEODC) obtained a $3,000,000 EDA Public Works & Economic Development Facilities Grant for the City of Pendleton’s Pendleton UAS Test Range located at the Eastern Oregon Regional Airport. GEODC managed the grant process, enabling the construction of new hangars, utility infrastructure, and access roads. The project also developed approximately 110 acres of land into a shovel-ready state with installed utilities and roads.
