Goliad NOLF was originally built by the United States Navy in  the 1970s as Chase Naval Air Station Auxiliary Landing Field Berclair and served as an auxiliary airfield for flight training operations at Naval Air Station Chase Field near Beeville, Texas. The airfield was closed as a result of the 1993 Base Realignment and Closure Commission that also resulted in the closing of NAS Chase Field. Goliad County purchased the airfield from the U.S. Navy for $1 in 1999 as surplus property and redeveloped the property as Goliad County Industrial Airpark , which was a county-owned, public-use airport. The airport was included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport  Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a "general aviation" facility. The United States Navy repurchased the field from Goliad County in 2011 for $2.3 million (equivalent to $ million in ). Facilities. NOLF Goliad covers an area of 1,136 acres (460 ha) at an elevation of 324 feet (99 m) above mean sea level.
