The civil portion of the airport is operated by NFTA (as the FAA sponsor), and the military portion by the US Air Reserve and the New York Air National Guard. The airport property lies within the Towns of Niagara and Wheatfield, in Niagara County, New York.

The existing ATCT is located at 9990 Porter Rd, Niagara Falls, NY 14304. The ATCT is part of the FAA Contract Tower Program (Tier Level 4 FCT) and is operated by Midwest Air Traffic Control Services. The existing IAG tower is a non-standard tower commissioned in 1962.
