Cooperating Technical Partners Program Region V | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) Program Region V grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DHS 10 MT 045 005 01) is a discretionary funding announcement administered through FEMA Region 5 and offered as a Cooperative Agreement. Its core purpose is to provide funding so participating CTP partners can carry out program management and mapping related work that supports FEMA's flood hazard identification responsibilities. The specific activities that can be funded are tied to the CTP program guidance issued each fiscal year, which means the work scope is driven by FEMA's annual priorities and standards rather than being a fully open ended research grant.

This opportunity is aimed at organizations that already participate in the CTP Program and that can directly support the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) mapping and flood risk identification mission. To be eligible, an applicant must be a CTP partner (or represent one), must be or represent an NFIP community in good standing, and must show it has the technical and administrative capability to complete the proposed work. A key eligibility condition is that the recipient must already have non federally funded processes and/or systems in place that support flood hazard identification activities. In other words, FEMA is looking for partners that are already operationally positioned to do this kind of work and can use federal support to strengthen, expand, or accelerate it, rather than starting from scratch.

While the program is strongly associated with flood mapping, the announcement makes clear that eligible projects may or may not involve geospatial issues. That leaves room for proposals that support flood hazard identification through other program management, data development, coordination, or supporting technical activities, as long as they align with the CTP guidance and contribute to FEMA's broader flood risk and hazard identification goals.

The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates a more collaborative relationship between FEMA and the recipient than a standard grant, often including substantial federal involvement such as coordination, oversight, and alignment with FEMA mapping standards or program requirements. The total estimated funding associated with this announcement is $44,000,000, and FEMA anticipated making about 30 awards. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for this opportunity.

Eligible applicant types are broad and include state governments, county governments, city or township governments, federally recognized tribal governments, and multi jurisdictional entities. It also includes public and state controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) nonprofits and certain nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, other than institutions of higher education). The announcement also references an "Others" category with clarification to be provided in the full eligibility details, and it explicitly highlights multi jurisdictional entities under eligibility information, indicating that regional or cross boundary collaborations may be particularly relevant for this program.

In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted and created on March 30, 2010, with an application closing date of September 15, 2010, and an archive date of October 15, 2010. The CFDA number associated with the program is 97.045 (Cooperating Technical Partners). 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 and mapping support work.
