Opportunity Summary:

The FY 2012 Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) Program Region IV opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DHS 12 MT 045 004 99) is a discretionary federal grant offered as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 97.045, Cooperating Technical Partners. It is administered through Region 4 and supports work that strengthens flood hazard identification efforts tied to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The overall intent is to provide funding so that established CTP partners can carry out program management and mapping-related activities, as laid out in FEMA's CTP program guidance for the applicable fiscal year. While mapping and technical flood risk work are central themes, the notice also makes clear that eligible projects or initiatives might not always be strictly geospatial in nature, so long as they contribute to the broader flood hazard identification mission.

Funding is structured to help partners maintain and execute the operational and technical tasks needed to support flood hazard mapping and related deliverables. Because the instrument is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, recipients should expect a closer working relationship with the federal agency during performance, including ongoing coordination and involvement consistent with cooperative agreement requirements. The total estimated funding available across the opportunity is listed as $26,803,000, and the expected number of awards is 50. The notice lists an award ceiling and floor as $0, which typically signals that award sizes are not preset in the synopsis and are instead determined based on project scope, eligibility, and available funds.

Eligibility is limited to organizations that can demonstrate they already meet key CTP participation and capability conditions. Applicants must be a partner in the CTP program and must either be, or represent, an NFIP community that is in good standing. In practical terms, that means the applicant needs an existing relationship within the CTP framework and a direct connection to NFIP-participating communities that are compliant and current with program requirements. Applicants must also have the capability to perform the funded activities and must already have non-federally funded processes and/or systems in place that support activities contributing to flood hazard identification. This last requirement emphasizes that the program is meant to leverage and enhance existing technical, administrative, and operational capacity rather than build it from scratch using federal funds.

The opportunity is open to a range of public and nonprofit entities typically involved in floodplain management, hazard mitigation, and mapping programs, including state governments, county governments, and city or township governments, as well as federally recognized Native American tribal governments. It also includes public and state-controlled institutions of higher education and eligible nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education under that nonprofit category). These applicant types reflect the CTP program's reliance on governmental and quasi-governmental partners and mission-aligned nonprofits that can contribute credible technical and program management support.

Key dates in the synopsis show the posting date as June 29, 2012, with an original closing date of August 1, 2012, later extended to a current closing date of September 18, 2012. The archive date is October 18, 2012, indicating when the opportunity information was expected to be retired from active listings. The funding activity category is identified as Science and Technology and other Research and Development, which aligns with the technical and analytical nature of flood hazard identification and mapping support work, even when projects also include administrative or program management components.
