Absolutely.  You can OC in the "non-sterile" area of an Airport.  Some airports (ex: DTW) are Ran (or owned) by the County and are thus preempted.

I OCed in the non-sterile area of Detroit Metro.  I did get to have a nice short discussion with two very professional TSA agents.  The whole interaction lasted a little over a minute and I was on my way without any trouble.  Kinda scary though because it was my first (and only) official LEO interaction.

So it stands to reason that if I can OC i can CC in the non sterile area of the airport?
