Opportunity Summary:
The Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) Program is a FEMA grant opportunity under the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that supports partners who help advance flood hazard identification and related mapping work tied to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The funding is provided through a Cooperative Agreement, which generally means FEMA expects an ongoing working relationship with recipients during the period of performance rather than a simple pass-through award. The core goal is to ensure participating CTP partners have resources to carry out program management and mapping-related activities that are laid out in FEMA program guidance each fiscal year. While the program is strongly associated with flood mapping, FEMA notes that eligible projects may or may not involve geospatial work, depending on what is allowed and prioritized in that year’s guidance.
This particular opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DHS 10 MT 045 000 01, CFDA 97.045) was posted on March 31, 2010, with an application deadline of September 15, 2010, and an archive date of October 15, 2010. FEMA anticipated making about 30 awards with an estimated total funding amount of $44,000,000. The activity category is listed under Science and Technology and other Research and Development, reflecting the technical nature of flood hazard analysis, mapping, data development, and related risk-identification work that can fall under CTP efforts.
Eligibility is broad but tied to being a legitimate CTP partner and having a direct connection to an NFIP community in good standing. Eligible applicants include state governments, county governments, city or township governments, and federally recognized tribal governments, as well as public and private institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations (both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) categories). The listing also includes “Others,” with the eligibility field indicating multi-jurisdictional entities, which typically covers organizations that represent or coordinate across multiple local governments or jurisdictions. Beyond organizational type, FEMA sets functional requirements: recipients must already be a partner in the CTP program (or be able to represent one), must be or represent an NFIP community in good standing, must demonstrate the capability to carry out the funded activities, and must already have non-federally funded processes and/or systems in place that support work contributing to flood hazard identification. In practice, this is meant to ensure applicants are not starting from scratch and can integrate federal support into an existing, sustainable technical and administrative framework.
The announcement specifies no cost sharing or matching requirement, which can lower the barrier for participation compared to programs that require local match. However, the program still emphasizes readiness and capacity, since recipients are expected to manage mapping or hazard-identification activities and associated program management responsibilities aligned with FEMA’s annual guidance. For more details, FEMA provided a program information link (http://www.fema.gov/plan/prevent/fhm/ctpmain.shtm) and contact options through the FEMA Call Center at (866) 927-5646 or by email at ASK-GMD@dhs.gov for assistance accessing the full announcement.
