County Of Wyoming

County Of Wyoming Wyoming County Commission, a U.S. government entity based in Pineville, West Virginia, acts as a federal grant recipient providing public safety and infrastructure services to civilian federal agencies, with 65% of recent awards in a prime-recipient posture and 35% as a sub-recipient on state and local grants. The county does not hold federal contract vehicles or compete for federal contracts; its federal footprint is entirely grant-funded work flowing through cooperative agreements and block grants from FEMA, DOJ, USDA, and EPA.

The county's capability portfolio centers on law enforcement, emergency management, public water infrastructure, and victim services. On the contract side, the Army Corps of Engineers awarded Wyoming County a $132,550 purchase order in April 2022 for law enforcement services at R.D. Bailey Lake in Justice, West Virginia, running through March 2027. On the grant side, representative recent work includes a $562,500 EPA Region 3 Cooperative Agreement (CFDA 66.202, Congressionally Mandated Projects) awarded January 2026 to design and construct the Hanover Waterline Extension Project—approximately 48,400 linear feet of water mains, two storage tanks, a booster station, and associated infrastructure to serve the Justice Public Service District and approximately 215 new customers in the Hanover area through January 2029. The USDA National Resources Conservation Service awarded a $104,000 Cooperative Agreement in July 2026 for the design phase of a voluntary property acquisition project within the Upper Guyandotte Watershed running through June 2029 (CFDA 10.904). The Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women funded a $382,835 Project Grant (CFDA 16.060, Local Law Enforcement Grants for Enforcement of Cybercrimes) awarded October 2024 to establish a Cybercrimes Investigation Unit, including specialized training, victim services via partnership with S.A.F.E. Inc., and software and equipment purchases, running through September 2027.

The top five funding agencies—Federal Aviation Administration (6 awards), FEMA Headquarters (5 awards), DOJ Bureau of Justice Assistance (4 awards), FAA Eastern Region (3 awards), and USDA NRCS (2 awards)—represent 59% of award count. By combined potential value, FEMA Region 3 leads with $190,000 across 2 awards, followed by the Army Corps of Engineers with $246,000 across 2 awards. Recent activity shows modest but irregular volume: two awards in 2022, three in 2023, six in 2024, five in 2025, and two in 2026 year-to-date. One award—the Corps of Engineers law enforcement contract—faces completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying $133,000 in potential value. As a sub-recipient, Wyoming County receives pass-through funding from the West Virginia Division of Emergency Management for disaster debris removal, repairs, and grant management costs, and from the West Virginia Office of Energy for energy-efficiency upgrades, accounting for 35% of the total award count across eight sub-awards.
