Amicalola Electric Membership Corporation

Amicalola Electric Membership Corporation, doing business as Amicalola Electric Membership Corp, is a tax-exempt, non-profit electric cooperative registered to receive federal awards since October 2, 2001. Based in Jasper, Georgia, the organization serves as a regional utility provider offering electrical services to over 45,000 locations throughout northwest Georgia. The corporation brings substantial experience in delivering essential utility infrastructure and maintenance services to federal agencies, positioning itself as a reliable partner for government operations requiring electrical expertise and long-term service commitments.

Amicalola Electric Membership Corporation has demonstrated significant federal contracting capacity through a recent prime contract award from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The corporation was awarded a $600,000 firm fixed-price definitive contract on September 25, 2025, for operations and maintenance activities at Cherokee County-Allatoona Lake in Jasper, Georgia, with performance extending through September 21, 2035. This nine-year contract reflects the long-term nature of utility service delivery required to sustain operations at the federal reservoir project. The award was issued without a small business set-aside, indicating the corporation's competitive standing in the broader federal marketplace. The contract represents work supporting USACE operations and maintenance activities at a significant water resource management asset. Additionally, the corporation has prior experience serving federal agencies, including previous work with the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration, demonstrating versatility across multiple federal stakeholders requiring electrical utility services.

Amicalola Electric Membership Corporation has participated in federal grant programs as a sub-awardee under the prime sponsorship of the Georgia Emergency Management and Homeland Security Agency. Between October 2021 and January 2022, the corporation received four federal grant sub-awards totaling multiple awards focused on emergency response and infrastructure restoration. These sub-awards included funding for Emergency Protective Measures (awarded October 1, 2021, and January 19, 2022), System-wide restoration efforts in Gilmer, Pickens, and Lumpkin counties (October 27, 2021), Distribution Lines restoration (November 8, 2021), and Estimated Management Costs (November 18, 2021). The grants appear to have been disaster-related funding, likely supporting restoration efforts following significant weather events or emergencies in the region. All sub-awards flowed through Georgia Emergency Management and Homeland Security Agency as the prime grantee, positioning Amicalola Electric Membership Corporation as a critical implementation partner in federal emergency response and infrastructure recovery initiatives at the state level.
