Opportunity Summary:

The Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) Program Region II grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DHS 10 MT 045 002 01) is a FEMA administered discretionary funding program offered through a Cooperative Agreement. Its core purpose is to provide financial support so approved CTP partners can carry out program management and flood mapping related work that FEMA defines each fiscal year through formal program guidance. In practical terms, the funding is meant to strengthen and expand the capacity of qualified partners to contribute to flood hazard identification work that ultimately supports FEMA flood hazard products and the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). While mapping is a central theme, the announcement makes clear that eligible projects may or may not be strictly geospatial in nature, meaning partners can also propose related management, technical, or supporting initiatives that advance flood risk identification outcomes.

Eligibility is tied closely to a applicants relationship with the CTP framework and NFIP standing. Recipients must already be a partner in the CTP program and must either be, or represent, an NFIP community in good standing. Applicants also need to show they have the capability to perform the activities they are seeking funds for, and that they already maintain non federally funded processes or systems that support flood hazard identification. That last condition signals that FEMA expects applicants to have baseline capacity and infrastructure in place, with the federal award serving to enhance and leverage existing local, state, tribal, academic, or organizational efforts rather than building everything from scratch.

A wide range of entity types are listed as eligible applicants, reflecting the collaborative nature of floodplain mapping and risk identification. Eligible applicants include state governments, county governments, and city or township governments; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; public and state controlled institutions of higher education as well as private institutions of higher education; and nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education where applicable). The opportunity also notes eligibility for multi jurisdictional entities, which is important for flood hazards that cross municipal boundaries and for regional mapping initiatives that require coordination across multiple communities or agencies.

From a funding and administrative standpoint, the opportunity anticipates up to 30 awards and lists an estimated total funding amount of $44,000,000 under CFDA 97.045 (Cooperating Technical Partners). The award instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates that FEMA expects substantial involvement or partnership during performance, such as coordination on technical standards, deliverables, and alignment with FEMA mapping priorities. No cost share or matching requirement is specified for this announcement, reducing the barrier to participation for entities that may have limited ability to provide matching funds, although applicants still need to demonstrate existing non federal processes or systems that support the work.

Key dates for the announcement show it was posted and created on March 30, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 15, 2010, and an archive date of October 15, 2010. The sponsoring office is identified as Region 2. For additional program background, FEMA referenced an information page for the CTP program. For access issues related to the full announcement, the notice directed applicants to the FEMA Call Center at (866) 927 5646 and the email ASK GMD@dhs.gov.
