County Of Clinton

County Of Clinton, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Plattsburgh, New York, operates as a federal grant recipient and prime contractor, with the majority of its federal footprint rooted in airport infrastructure development and facility leasing under GSA real-property vehicles. The county competes full-and-open across all awards; no set-aside designations apply.

County Of Clinton's customer concentration is split between transportation infrastructure funding and general services real estate. The Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration (Eastern Region and headquarters combined) issued 76 of the top-tracked awards, funded largely through the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) in the form of project and formula grants to Plattsburgh International Airport. The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families accounts for 111 awards (23% of the total footprint), almost entirely sub-grant awards passed through to the county from New York State agencies for child welfare, temporary assistance, and other social services. The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Central Office Office of Leasing drives most dollar concentration: 30 awards with $4.2 million combined potential value, predominantly tied to two basic ordering agreements (BOAs) — GS02B23253 (101 task orders, $2.3 million) and GS02B23425 (69 task orders, $12.2 million) — that frame the county's leasing of county-owned facilities to the federal government.

The county's federal grant work spans airport capital projects at Plattsburgh International Airport, including a $2.7 million project grant from the FAA (awarded June 2026) for construction of a 6,700 square-yard public-use aircraft deicing pad and containment facility (ultimate completion June 2030); a $1.93 million project grant from the FAA (September 2025) for Phase 2 terminal security modernization including seven security cameras and five mechanical gate operator reconstructions (completion September 2029); and a $1.17 million formula grant from the FAA (July 2025) for acquisition of one carrier vehicle with snow removal equipment (completion July 2029). The county also received a $1 million project grant from the Small Business Administration under the Congressional Grants program (September 2022, completed August 2024) for small business development initiatives in Clinton County. Several multi-year FAA formula grants funded taxiway and apron rehabilitation, runway lighting rehabilitation, airfield signage reconstruction, aircraft rescue and firefighting equipment acquisition, and foreign object detection equipment.

On the contract side, County Of Clinton holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (awarded September 2025, ceiling value $179,185, ultimate completion July 2030) for detention services at Clinton County facilities serving federal detainees transferred by U.S. Border Patrol. A $33,750 task order under this BPA provides secure custody, medical care, and nutritional meals for adult male and female federal detainees under U.S. Marshals Service standards and PREA compliance. The county also executed two Other Transaction Agreements with the Transportation Security Administration (2021) reimbursing electrical and COVID-19 cleaning costs at Plattsburgh International Airport's TSA security checkpoint, valued at $61,321 and $9,767 respectively.

The county's sub-grant footprint is substantial: 195 sub-awards (41% of total awards) flow primarily through New York State intermediaries — the Office of Children and Family Services (the largest pass-through, with dozens of sub-awards for Clinton County child welfare services), the New York State Office of Mental Health (jail diversion programs), the New York State Department of Temporary and Disability Assistance (TANF and temporary assistance programs), the New York State Department of Health (WIC services), and the New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services (disaster response and emergency management). The county also receives sub-awards under federal public health programs (Public Health Emergency Preparedness via Health Research, Inc., and System of Care initiatives via the Research Foundation for Mental Hygiene).

Activity has grown significantly — from 9 awards in 2022 to 87 in 2024, declining to 68 in 2025 and 19 year-to-date in 2026 — with only 7 awards (combined potential value $44 thousand) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating limited recompete cliff exposure. The county's award portfolio reflects its dual role as a regional public infrastructure manager (airport operations and capital projects) and a pass-through administrator for federal social and emergency services programs routed through New York State.
