Opportunity Summary:
The Fiscal Year 2010 Emergency Operations Center (EOC) Grant Program is a Department of Homeland Security preparedness grant designed to strengthen emergency management and overall response capability by helping governments build, renovate, and modernize their principal Emergency Operations Centers. The core idea is to support EOCs that are flexible in how they can be used during different types of incidents, sustainable for long-term operations, secure against threats and disruptions, and interoperable so they can reliably share information and coordinate with partner agencies. The program is meant to address concrete needs and deficiencies that applicants can document, rather than serving as a general facilities upgrade fund.
Legally, the program is authorized under Section 614 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 6196c), and the funding was appropriated through the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2010 (Public Law 111-83). For FY 2010, the total funding available is $60,000,000. A major portion of that amount, $47,442,500, is reserved as set-aside, non-competitive funding intended for specific key EOC projects across the country. The remaining funds are awarded competitively, with projects evaluated through a multi-level process that includes both a state and national review of the applicant's Investment Justifications. In other words, not all funding is open competition; a significant share is pre-identified for priority projects, and the balance is competed based on the strength of the justification and alignment with program goals.
The grant is focused specifically on construction or renovation of a state, local, or tribal government principal EOC. At the same time, it draws a clear boundary around what it will not support: it is not intended to fund the construction or renovation of state, local, or tribal Fusion Centers. That distinction matters because Fusion Centers are generally intelligence and information-sharing hubs, while this program is aimed at the operational coordination facilities used to manage emergencies and disasters.
In terms of eligibility and how applications flow, local governments and tribal governments are included as intended beneficiaries (including county governments, city or township governments, state governments, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments). However, the only entity that can actually submit the application is the State Administrative Agency (SAA), which applies on behalf of eligible state, local, and tribal EOC projects. This means prospective local and tribal projects typically need to work through their state process to be nominated, prioritized, and ultimately submitted under the state's application package.
Administratively, this is a discretionary grant program using the grant funding instrument type, categorized under Homeland Security Preparedness, and associated with CFDA number 97.052 (Emergency Operations Center). It includes a cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning recipients are expected to contribute a portion of project costs from non-federal sources according to the program guidance. The opportunity was posted December 8, 2009, created January 29, 2010, and had an original closing date of February 12, 2010, later extended to February 18, 2010. The archived date is March 20, 2010. Applicants were repeatedly advised to follow the detailed submission requirements in the FY 2010 EOC Guidance and Application Kit, which is where the specific rules on allowable costs, documentation, and the matching requirement would be spelled out.
For support, the announcement lists points of contact for technical and application-access issues, including the Centralized Scheduling and Information Desk (CSID) Help Line at (800) 368-6498 and askcsid@dhs.gov, along with FEMA call center resources (including (866) 927-5646 and ASK-GMD@dhs.gov) for grants-related assistance.
