Fiscal Year (FY) 2013 Cooperating Technical Partners Program Region 6 | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The Fiscal Year (FY) 2013 Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) Program Region 6 opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DHS 13 MT 045 006 99; CFDA 97.045) was a discretionary FEMA Region 6 funding announcement that used a cooperative agreement to support flood hazard and flood risk work. The main goal was to provide funds so established Cooperating Technical Partners could carry out program management activities and technical work tied to risk analysis and flood mapping. While many awards under the CTP program commonly relate to geospatial data and mapping, FEMA noted that eligible projects under this announcement might or might not involve geospatial issues, as long as they supported flood hazard and risk identification and related program outcomes.

To be eligible, an applicant had to already be a CTP, meaning they needed a signed Partnership Agreement with FEMA Headquarters or a FEMA Regional Office. In addition, the recipient had to be, or represent, a National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) community in good standing. FEMA also required applicants to show they could meet CTP program performance metrics, produce timely and accurate performance reporting, and maintain non-federally funded processes or systems that already support flood hazard and risk identification activities. A key operational requirement was the ability and willingness to perform the funded work within FEMA systems, specifically using the Mapping Information Platform (MIP). Awardees had to keep project information current by updating activities in the MIP at least every 30 days in the Studies Workflow, and more frequently when operating in the Revisions Workflow, reflecting FEMA's emphasis on routine progress tracking and up-to-date project status.

The announcement anticipated up to 15 awards with an estimated total funding level of $3,018,000 across the opportunity. The listing indicated a cost sharing or matching requirement, so recipients were expected to contribute non-federal resources consistent with the terms FEMA set for the cooperative agreement. The award ceiling and floor were both shown as $0 in the source record, which typically means the posting did not specify a per-award minimum or maximum in that database field and applicants needed to rely on the full notice or FEMA guidance for any practical budgeting constraints.

Eligible applicant types were broad, but still aligned with governmental and public-serving entities that commonly administer floodplain management, mapping, and risk reduction programs. FEMA listed state governments, county governments, city or township governments, special district governments, federally recognized tribal governments, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and qualifying 501(c)(3) nonprofits (excluding institutions of higher education). The funding activity category was labeled as Science and Technology and other Research and Development, reflecting the technical nature of risk analysis, mapping, and related program support functions.

Key dates in the posting show it was published on July 25, 2013, with an original closing date of August 11, 2013, later extended to a current closing date of August 16, 2013. The record was archived on September 10, 2013, indicating the application window had ended and the notice was retained for reference rather than active competition. For further details, FEMA provided a program link (hosted on FEMA's Cooperating Technical Partners program page) and a technical contact for applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically: the Systems and Business Support Branch at GMD Systems (Branch@fema.gov).
