Opportunity Summary:

The Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) Program Region I grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DHS 10 MT 045 001 01) is a discretionary funding announcement offered through a cooperative agreement. Its core purpose is to provide funding so approved CTP partners can carry out program management and mapping related work tied to flood hazard identification, with the specific tasks and priorities defined each fiscal year in FEMA program guidance. In practical terms, the funding is meant to strengthen and expand the partner network that helps FEMA produce, update, and manage flood hazard information that supports the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and broader flood risk management decisions.

This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, which usually means FEMA expects substantial involvement during performance, such as coordination on deliverables, technical standards, and project oversight. The activity category is listed under Science and Technology and other Research and Development, reflecting that funded work can include technical studies, engineering analyses, and related data development that support flood hazard identification and mapping. The announcement also makes clear that eligible projects may or may not involve geospatial issues, so while mapping is central to the program, the scope can include other supporting activities that contribute to flood hazard identification and program execution.

Eligibility is broad but tied to being part of the CTP framework and to NFIP standing. Applicants must be a partner in the CTP program and must either be, or represent, an NFIP community in good standing. They must also demonstrate the capability to perform the funded activities and, importantly, have existing non-federally funded processes and/or systems already in place that support work contributing to flood hazard identification. The eligible applicant types listed include state governments, local governments (city/township and county), federally recognized tribal governments, public and state controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations (including those with and without 501(c)(3) status). The eligibility notes also reference multi-jurisdictional entities, indicating that regional or collaborative organizations representing multiple communities may be eligible where they meet the program requirements.

In terms of funding scale and timing, the opportunity estimated total funding at $44,000,000 and anticipated making about 30 awards. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces the financial barrier for eligible partners and can make the program more accessible to public agencies and smaller organizations that still have the required baseline systems and capability. The notice was posted on March 30, 2010, with an application closing date of September 15, 2010, and an archive date of October 15, 2010, indicating it was tied to that specific fiscal year cycle and is now archived.

The program is administered through FEMA Region I (as shown in the agency/region field). For further program details, FEMA pointed applicants to the CTP program page at http://www.fema.gov/plan/prevent/fhm/ctpmain.shtm. For access issues or application help, the contact listed is the FEMA Call Center at (866) 927-5646 and the email ASK-GMD@dhs.gov, which aligns with FEMA support channels for grants and mitigation directorate related inquiries.
