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 capability. The core idea behind the opportunity is that communities respond best to any emergency, whether natural, technological, or human-caused, when they have a comprehensive, steady program in place for planning, training, and exercises. By supporting these foundational activities, EMPG aims to make emergency response more consistent and effective across a wide range of potential incidents, rather than preparing for only one specific threat.
This opportunity was issued as a mandatory grant under Funding Opportunity Number DHS-10-GPD-042-002-01, listed under CFDA 97.042 (Emergency Management Performance Grants). The funding activity is categorized under homeland security preparedness, reflecting its focus on readiness and capability-building. FEMA expected to make 58 awards, which aligns with the number of eligible state and territorial jurisdictions covered by the program.
Total estimated funding for FY 2010 EMPG is about $329.8 million (listed as $329,799,991 in the opportunity data, with the description noting $329,779,991 appropriated under the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2010). These funds are intended to assist state and local governments in enhancing and sustaining emergency management capabilities that can be applied to any hazard scenario. In practice, that means supporting the management systems, coordination structures, workforce readiness, and exercise programs that make response and recovery operations work when an incident occurs.
Eligibility is limited to state governments and designated jurisdictions. 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 Emergency Management Agency (EMA), but only one application per state or territory will be accepted. While the applicant is the state-level entity, the grant is structured to support both state and local emergency management agencies through the statewide program.
The opportunity includes a cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning recipients must contribute a non-federal share according to the rules laid out in the program guidance. Applicants were instructed to follow the submission requirements in the FY 2010 EMPG Guidance and Application Kit, which would spell out the allowable activities, budgeting rules, match details, and application components.
The posting and application timeline was straightforward. The opportunity was posted and created on December 8, 2009. The original (and current) closing date was January 22, 2010, and the opportunity archive date was February 21, 2010. Applicants were repeatedly advised in the announcement metadata to carefully review the program guidance and application kit to ensure compliance with submission and documentation requirements.
For access issues or support, FEMA/DHS provided multiple points of contact. The Centralized Scheduling and Information Desk (CSID) Help Line was available at (800) 368-6498 and by email at askcsid@dhs.gov. FEMA also listed call center support at (866) 927-5646 and an email contact at ASK-GMD@dhs.gov, reflecting the typical FEMA Grants Programs Directorate support channels used during that period.
