City Of Ripon

City Of Ripon, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Ripon, California, acts as a federal grant recipient for water infrastructure and municipal capital projects, with no federal contract prime or subcontractor footprint in the source data.

The City's federal award activity centers on the Environmental Protection Agency Region 9 as the sole customer agency. City Of Ripon holds a $4.32 million Congressionally Mandated Projects cooperative agreement (CFDA 66.202) effective February 1, 2026, with ultimate completion January 31, 2031, for the South San Joaquin Irrigation District Surface Water Connection Project. The agreement provides $3.45 million in full federal funding to support installation of a new water main connecting the City to the SSJID treated surface water system, enhancing drinking water infrastructure. Deliverables include 100% design plans and specifications, Request for Proposals, contractor contracts, Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans, as-built documentation, on-site EPA project review, quarterly progress reports, and final project reporting. Expected outcomes include an additional 1,305 million gallons per year of water available for consumption and energy savings of 660 megawatt-hours per megagallon for City residents and businesses. Pre-award costs are approved retroactively to February 1, 2026. The City retains full responsibility for pre-construction activities; construction and project management activities divide funding between EPA Community Grant funds and the City's cost share. No subawards are included in the assistance agreement.

The City also holds two sub-grant awards, one for operating assistance (March 6, 2026) and one for capital projects replacement (December 17, 2025), accounting for the remaining $280 thousand of the $4.6 million combined obligated total. Award activity remains nascent — one award in 2025, two in 2026 — with all activity routed through EPA Region 9.
