Cooperating Technical Partner Program | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The Cooperating Technical Partner (CTP) Program grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DHS 09 GPD 045 003; CFDA 97.045) is a discretionary funding program offered through a cooperative agreement to support partners who help FEMA carry out flood hazard identification and mapping work tied to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The core goal is to provide funding so established CTP partners can complete program management tasks and mapping-related activities that FEMA defines in its CTP program guidance each fiscal year. In practice, this means the award is intended to strengthen and sustain a partner's ability to plan, manage, and deliver work that improves flood hazard data and related products used for flood risk management and insurance purposes. While mapping is central to the program, the announcement notes that proposed projects or initiatives may or may not involve geospatial issues, depending on what is eligible under the year-specific guidance.

Eligibility is limited to organizations that already participate in the CTP program and that either are an NFIP community in good standing or represent one. Applicants must demonstrate they have the capability to perform the funded activities and that they already maintain non-federally funded processes or systems that support flood hazard identification work. The opportunity also recognizes multi-jurisdictional entities, reflecting the reality that watershed and floodplain issues often cross city, county, or tribal boundaries. Eligible applicant types listed include state governments, county governments, city or township governments, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and other entities as clarified in the full announcement. The posting identifies the issuing organization as FEMA Region 3.

The funding instrument is specifically a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, which generally signals closer federal involvement in the project during performance (for example, coordination, technical direction, or shared responsibilities). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for this opportunity, which can reduce barriers for eligible partners that already support flood hazard work through existing non-federal systems and staffing.

Key dates included in the record show the opportunity was posted on January 9, 2009, with an application closing date of September 15, 2009, and an archive date of October 15, 2009. Applicants seeking program details, annual guidance, and updates were directed to FEMA's CTP webpage (http://www.fema.gov/plan/prevent/fhm/ctpmain.shtm). For access issues or assistance with the announcement, the contact provided was the FEMA Map Assistance Center at 1-877-FEMA-MAP (1-877-336-2627) and the email address ctp@mapmodteam.com.
