Opportunity Summary:
The Cooperating Technical Partner (CTP) Program is a FEMA-led funding opportunity (Region 7) offered through a cooperative agreement to support partners who help improve flood hazard identification and flood mapping products used by the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The main goal is to provide financial support so approved CTP partners can carry out program management and mapping-related work that FEMA defines each fiscal year in the program guidance. While many CTP efforts naturally involve mapping and geospatial data, the announcement makes clear that eligible projects do not have to be strictly geospatial as long as they support flood hazard identification outcomes.
Funding is discretionary and issued as a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, which usually means FEMA expects closer coordination during the period of performance, including shared involvement in technical direction, deliverables, and oversight. The funding activity category is listed under science and technology and other research and development, reflecting the technical and analytical nature of flood hazard identification work. This opportunity is tied to CFDA 97.045 (Cooperating Technical Partners). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for this announcement.
Eligibility is limited to entities that are already CTP partners and that either are an NFIP community in good standing or represent one. Applicants must also be able to actually perform the proposed work and must already have non-federally funded processes and/or systems in place that support activities contributing to flood hazard identification. In other words, the program is designed for organizations with existing capability and infrastructure, not for groups starting from scratch. The eligible applicant types include state governments, county governments, city or township governments, federally recognized tribal governments, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and other applicants as clarified in the full eligibility language. The notice also references multi-jurisdictional entities, indicating that regional or collaborative applicants that represent multiple communities may be eligible when they meet the program requirements.
Key administrative details from the posting include Funding Opportunity Number DHS-09-GPD-045-007 and the title "Cooperating Technical Partner Program." The opportunity was posted January 9, 2009, with an original and current closing date of September 15, 2009, and an archive date of October 15, 2009. Additional program information is referenced through FEMA at http://www.fema.gov/plan/prevent/fhm/ctpmain.shtm.
