Borough Of Hopatcong

Borough Of Hopatcong, a U.S. municipal government entity headquartered in Hopatcong, New Jersey, is a federal grant recipient that performs rural housing preservation, emergency preparedness, and water-quality infrastructure work for the Department of Agriculture, Federal Emergency Management Agency, and Environmental Protection Agency. The borough does not hold federal contracts and operates exclusively as a prime recipient of federal grants; no subrecipient arrangements are structured into its current federal portfolio.

The borough's customer base spans five distinct federal agencies and programs. The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service anchors the portfolio with four awards under the Rural Housing Preservation Grants program (CFDA 10.433), including a project grant awarded January 21, 2026, and another project grant awarded July 19, 2021, with ultimate completion scheduled for November 26, 2025. The Federal Emergency Management Agency Headquarters Financial Assistance Awards program (Assistance to Firefighters Grants) provided two project grants, one of which was awarded January 30, 2023, with completion in January 2025. The Environmental Protection Agency Region 2 awarded a cooperative agreement on September 1, 2023, for installation of granular activated carbon treatment units at three municipal water supply wells—Durban Well, Hudson Well, and Squire Well—to reduce PFAS contamination and achieve federal and state drinking-water regulatory compliance. The ultimate completion date for this EPA award is February 28, 2026.

Total awards across all federal sources stand at eleven grants with combined dollars obligated of $3.5 million. Activity has been intermittent: one award in 2019, two in 2020, one in 2021, two in 2023, and one in 2026, reflecting episodic grant opportunity alignment rather than continuous contract engagement. The borough operates exclusively as a prime recipient without subcontractor or subrecipient relationships in the source data.
