Impact aid program, title VII, section 7002

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Lompoc Unified School District $669,688 under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7002, effective October 1, 2025. The award provides financial assistance to replace local tax revenue lost when the Federal Government acquires real property within the school district, reducing the assessed valuation available for local property taxation. Lompoc Unified School District, headquartered in Lompoc, California, serves a federally-connected and military-impacted student population. Performance occurs in Lompoc, California, with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2031. The award is classified as a Project Grant under CFDA 84.041. Impact Aid Section 7002 serves school districts where an aggregate of 10 percent or more of assessed valuation of all real property has been acquired by the Federal Government since 1938 and the district is not substantially compensated by revenue from activities on eligible Federal property. Payments under the program are made annually and computed on a statutory formula basis, prorated if appropriations are insufficient.
