Cooperating Technical Partners Program Region IX | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) Program Region IX grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DHS 10 MT 045 009 01, CFDA 97.045) is a discretionary FEMA funding announcement offered as a Cooperative Agreement to support flood hazard identification work tied to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The core goal is to provide funding so that Cooperating Technical Partners can carry out program management and mapping related activities, with the specific eligible activities defined each fiscal year through program guidance. In practice, this means FEMA is funding partners to help produce, maintain, or improve the technical and administrative work that supports flood risk mapping and related flood hazard data used in FEMA programs.

Eligibility is centered on being an active participant in the CTP program and being connected to an NFIP community in good standing. Applicants must either be an NFIP community themselves or represent one, and they must be able to demonstrate the capability to perform the funded work. A key requirement is that recipients already have non-federally funded processes and/or systems in place that support activities contributing to flood hazard identification. This signals that FEMA is looking for mature organizations that can integrate federal support into an existing operational framework, rather than entities starting from scratch. The announcement also notes that eligible projects may or may not involve geospatial issues, which leaves room for both traditional mapping/data development efforts and other supporting initiatives that still advance flood hazard identification outcomes.

A wide range of applicant types are listed as eligible, including state governments, county governments, city or township governments, federally recognized tribal governments, public and private institutions of higher education, and nonprofits (including those with 501(c)(3) status as well as certain nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status). The listing also includes an "Others" category with additional clarification referenced in the full announcement, and the eligibility information explicitly mentions multi-jurisdictional entities, reflecting that regional collaborations or consortium-type arrangements may apply.

From a funding perspective, the opportunity anticipated about 30 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $44,000,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated in the notice, which generally lowers the barrier to participation for eligible partners, though applicants would still be expected to show the organizational capacity and the existing non-federal processes/systems described in the eligibility language.

The opportunity 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 administering agency is FEMA Region 9 (listed as "Region 9"). For further details, the announcement points to FEMA's CTP program webpage (http://www.fema.gov/plan/prevent/fhm/ctpmain.shtm). Applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically were directed to contact the FEMA Call Center at (866) 927-5646 or email ASK-GMD@dhs.gov.
