Opportunity Summary:
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2014 Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) Program for Region 3 is a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) grant opportunity under the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that provides federal funding to strengthen and sustain emergency management capabilities for all hazards. The program is designed to help governments maintain a comprehensive, coordinated emergency preparedness system focused on protecting life and property. It is grounded in long-standing federal emergency management authorities, including Section 662 of the Post-Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act (6 U.S.C. 762) and the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.). In particular, Title VI of the Stafford Act authorizes FEMA to issue grants that build emergency preparedness systems nationwide while recognizing that responsibility for preparedness is shared between the federal government and states and their political subdivisions.
The central purpose of the FY 2014 EMPG is to provide resources that enable state, local, tribal, and territorial emergency management agencies to support the National Preparedness Goal (NPG). In practical terms, this means funding activities and capabilities that align with the NPGs mission areas and core capabilities, which collectively cover the full cycle of emergency management, including efforts that prevent incidents, protect communities, mitigate risk, respond effectively, and support recovery. FEMA, through this program, does not only provide funding; it also supplies direction, coordination, and guidance intended to keep emergency management programs aligned with national doctrine and to encourage consistent, interoperable preparedness across jurisdictions.
This opportunity is listed as a discretionary grant in the disaster prevention and relief category. The Funding Opportunity Number is DHS-14-GPD-042-003-01, and the official title is "Fiscal Year (FY) 2014 Emergency Management Performance Grant Program - Region 3." The associated CFDA number is 97.042 (Emergency Management Performance Grants). The total estimated funding for the program is $350,100,000, with an expected number of awards listed as 6. The announcement does not specify an award floor or award ceiling (both are listed as 0), which generally indicates that award amounts vary based on program formulas, allocations, or other FEMA determinations rather than being constrained by a fixed minimum or maximum in the public listing.
Eligibility for this specific posting is limited to state governments. While the program description emphasizes benefits for state, local, tribal, and territorial preparedness overall, the eligible applicant type listed in the opportunity data is state governments, meaning applications are expected to be submitted at the state level rather than by individual local or tribal entities directly under this particular listing. The grant includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning recipients must contribute a non-federal share consistent with EMPG program rules and FEMA grant guidance.
Key dates for the opportunity show it was posted and created on March 10, 2014, with an original and current closing date of April 9, 2014. The archive date is May 6, 2014, indicating the opportunity is no longer open and is retained for record and reference purposes. Additional details and the full announcement were made available through Grants.gov, with an additional information link provided as http://www.grants.gov. For technical issues accessing the announcement, the contact listed is the FEMA Grants Management Directorate (GMD) Systems Branch at GMD Systems Branch@fema.gov.
