County Of Clinton

County Of Clinton, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Plattsburgh, New York, operates as a federal grant recipient and contract prime in airport infrastructure development, detention services, and community social-services pass-through administration, with 57% of awards held as prime (283 of 499 total awards) and 43% as sub-recipient on state and federal grants (216 awards).

County Of Clinton's federal footprint is heavily weighted toward the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (126 awards as sub-recipient, representing pass-through funding for child welfare, family services, and temporary assistance programs administered through New York State intermediaries), followed by the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Eastern Region and FAA national office (42 and 34 awards respectively, focused on Plattsburgh International Airport capital improvements). The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Central Office leads by potential value with 30 awards ($4.2 million combined potential value), primarily lease agreements for office building space. DHS Transportation Security Administration (6 awards, $1.7 million) and DHS Customs and Border Protection (3 awards, $272 thousand) round out the top five customer agencies by potential value. Award concentration reveals a high-volume sub-recipient footprint routed through New York State intermediaries — chiefly the Office of Children and Family Services (majority of the 126 HHS ACF sub-awards), the New York State Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance (TANF, child support services, disability programs), the New York State Department of Health (WIC local agency administration, PFAS water contamination remediation), and the New York State Office of Mental Health (jail diversion programs) — alongside direct federal prime awards in airport capital and detention services.

County Of Clinton's parent vehicle positions sit with the GSA leasing vehicles: Basic Ordering Agreement GS02B23253 (101 task orders, $2.3 million combined potential value) and Basic Ordering Agreement GS02B23425 (69 task orders, $12.2 million combined potential value), representing the bulk of the county's GSA office-building lease footprint across federal installations in the region. Additional BOA positions include F3063680D0010 (5 task orders) and a CBP detention services Blanket Purchase Agreement awarded September 2025 with a $179,185 ceiling running through July 2030.

Recent prime contract activity centers on detention and airport work. A U.S. Customs and Border Protection BPA call issued August 1, 2026, for $58,750 covers detention center services at Clinton County Detention Center in Swanton, Vermont — secure custody, medical care, and nutritional meals for adult federal detainees transferred by Border Patrol, performed to U.S. Marshals Service standards and Prison Rape Elimination Act compliance, with performance concluding July 31, 2027. An earlier CBP detention services BPA call from September 30, 2025, valued at $33,750.01, has ultimate completion July 31, 2026.

Federal Aviation Administration Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) grants dominate the prime grant footprint and reflect sustained capital investment in Plattsburgh International Airport. Recent awards include a $2.7 million Project Grant (June 10, 2026) for construction of a 6,700 square-yard public-use aircraft deicing pad and containment facility (final construction phase, completion June 9, 2030); a $1.93 million Project Grant (September 17, 2025) for Phase 2 terminal security modernization covering seven security cameras and five mechanical gate operator reconstructions under 49 CFR Part 1542; a $1.17 million Formula Grant (July 25, 2025) for acquisition of one carrier vehicle with snow removal equipment; a $1.04 million Formula Grant (September 12, 2024) for runway lighting rehabilitation and 33 airfield sign reconstructions (final phase, completion September 11, 2028); a $1.49 million Project Grant (August 22, 2024) for aircraft rescue and firefighting equipment including four replacement self-contained breathing apparatus, four sets of turnout gear, and one Class 5 aircraft rescue and firefighting vehicle replacement (completion August 21, 2028); and a $2.02 million Project Grant (January 26, 2024) for installation of a new passenger boarding bridge (final phase, completion January 25, 2028). The county also received a $331,000 Formula Grant (July 25, 2025) and a $395,000 Project Grant (August 20, 2023) for design phases of taxilane and general aviation apron rehabilitation projects, and a $193,300 Formula Grant (August 20, 2025) for development of a Safety Management System manual and implementation plan. A $1 million SBA Congressional Grants award (September 1, 2022, CFDA 59.059, completion August 31, 2024) supported small business development and entrepreneurship initiatives in Clinton County.

The county also acts as sub-recipient on federal grant pass-throughs from New York State, including WIC local agency contracts (administered through the Department of Health), jail diversion programs redirecting individuals with serious mental illness from incarceration into community-based treatment (routed through the Office of Mental Health), child welfare and family services administered by the Office of Children and Family Services, temporary assistance and disability programs under the Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance, emergency management performance grants and State Homeland Security Program funding, and public health infrastructure grants including pandemic and health equity programs administered through Health Research Inc. as intermediary.

Award activity has accelerated over the past five years — 9 awards in 2022 to 87 in 2024, declining to 69 in 2025 and 40 in the first nine months of 2026 — reflecting ongoing capital cycle activity at Plattsburgh International Airport and sustained throughput of state-administered HHS and social-services sub-awards. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal, with only four awards (combined potential value $59 thousand) reaching ultimate completion by October 2028. The combined potential value across the 499-award portfolio is $17 million, though obligated dollars ($144.2 million) substantially exceed potential value, reflecting multi-year grant awards and state pass-throughs where prior-year funding has been drawn and reported.
