Opportunity Summary:
The Fiscal Year 2010 Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) is a mandatory federal grant program designed to help states and territories strengthen and maintain all-hazards emergency management capabilities. The basic idea behind the program is that communities respond best to disasters of any kind when they already have a solid, well-practiced foundation in place: clear plans, trained personnel, and regular exercises that test and improve how agencies coordinate under pressure. EMPG supports that foundation so that state and local governments can deliver a more effective, consistent response to both threatened and actual incidents, regardless of whether the cause is natural, accidental, or intentional.
This opportunity was issued by the Department of Homeland Security through FEMA (listing Region 8 as the agency name in the record) under Funding Opportunity Number DHS 10 GPD 042 008 01 and is categorized under Homeland Security preparedness. The assistance is provided as a grant, and it is tied to CFDA number 97.042 (Emergency Management Performance Grants). The total estimated funding for FY 2010 EMPG is about $329.8 million (the notice cites $329,779,991 and also lists an estimated total of $329,799,991), reflecting the appropriation in the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2010.
Eligibility is limited to governmental entities at the state or territory level. Specifically, all 56 states and territories are eligible, along with the Republic of the Marshall Islands and the Federated States of Micronesia. Applications must be submitted by either the State Administrative Agency (SAA) or the state Emergency Management Agency (EMA), and only one application per state or territory will be accepted. While the applicant is at the state/territory level, the funding is intended to support state and local emergency management agencies by enhancing and sustaining capabilities that cut across prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery activities, with a particular emphasis on the emergency management building blocks of planning, training, and exercises.
The opportunity anticipates 58 awards and includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning recipients are expected to contribute non-federal resources toward the overall project costs in accordance with the program guidance. The posting and creation date for the announcement was December 8, 2009, and the application deadline was January 22, 2010, with the archive date listed as February 21, 2010. Applicants were repeatedly advised in the notice to closely follow the submission requirements laid out in the Fiscal Year 2010 EMPG Guidance and Application Kit, which would contain the detailed rules on allowable activities, match, documentation, and the specific mechanics of applying.
For applicants or stakeholders who needed help accessing the full announcement or navigating the process, the listing provides several support contacts: the Centralized Scheduling Information Desk (CSID) Help Line at (800) 368-6498 and askcsid@dhs.gov, as well as FEMA support through (866) 927-5646 and ASK-GMD@dhs.gov, plus a reference to the FEMA GPD Call Center.
