Opportunity Summary:
The Fiscal Year 2010 Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) is a Department of Homeland Security/FEMA grant program designed to help states and territories build and maintain strong, all-hazards emergency management capabilities. The core idea behind the opportunity is that effective emergency management does not start when a disaster happens; it depends on a year-round, comprehensive program that ties together planning, training, and exercises so agencies can respond in a consistent, coordinated way to any incident, whether it is natural, technological, or human-caused. EMPG funding is intended to support that foundation across state and local emergency management systems, strengthening preparedness and overall readiness.
This opportunity was issued as a mandatory grant under Funding Opportunity Number DHS 10 GPD 042 007 01, with the title Fiscal Year 2010 Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG). It falls under the broader area of Homeland Security preparedness and is cataloged under CFDA 97.042 (Emergency Management Performance Grants). The posted and creation date for the announcement was December 8, 2009, with an application closing date of January 22, 2010, and an archive date of February 21, 2010. Applicants were specifically directed to follow the detailed submission instructions in the Fiscal Year 2010 EMPG Guidance and Application Kit, indicating that program requirements, allowable activities, documentation standards, and deadlines were governed by that official guidance.
The estimated total funding available is approximately $329.8 million (listed as $329,799,991 in the opportunity data, and described in the narrative as $329,779,991 appropriated through the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2010). The program anticipated 58 awards, which aligns with funding being distributed across states, territories, and certain affiliated jurisdictions. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning recipients are expected to contribute a non-federal share as part of the overall project or program costs, consistent with EMPG’s structure of shared investment in emergency management capability.
Eligibility is limited to state-level applicants. Specifically, all 56 states and territories are eligible, along with the Republic of the Marshall Islands and the Federated States of Micronesia. Applications are submitted to FEMA by either the State Administrative Agency (SAA) or the state’s Emergency Management Agency (EMA) on behalf of state and local emergency management agencies, but only one application is accepted per state or territory. In practice, that structure is meant to streamline administration and ensure there is a single statewide strategy for how EMPG funds will support emergency management priorities across jurisdictions.
Administratively, the opportunity is associated with FEMA (the listing shows “Region 7” as the agency name in the notice), and it provides several support channels for applicants who need help accessing the announcement or navigating the process. Contact options include the Centralized Scheduling Information Desk (CSID) Help Line at (800) 368-6498 and askcsid@dhs.gov, along with FEMA call center support at (866) 927-5646 and ASK-GMD@dhs.gov, plus the FEMA GPD Call Center referenced in the notice. These contacts are intended to assist with technical access issues and grants management questions related to submission and program administration.
Overall, FY 2010 EMPG is best understood as a capability-sustaining preparedness grant: it helps state and local emergency management programs maintain and improve the systems, plans, training pipelines, and exercise programs that make coordinated response possible, regardless of the hazard. The official guidance and application kit is the controlling document for specific allowable costs and performance expectations, but the published opportunity summary makes clear that the program’s purpose is to enhance and sustain all-hazards emergency management capacity through deliberate, ongoing preparedness work.
