Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP), Individual State Earthquake Assistance - Region 4
Agency: Department of Homeland Security - FEMA
Assistance Listings: 97.082 -- Earthquake Consortium
Description
The National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP) seeks to mitigate earthquake losses in the United States through basic and directed research and implementation activities in the fields of earthquake science and engineering. The NEHRP program supports the mission area of the Quadrennial Homeland Security Review titled Strengthen National Preparedness and Resilience, as well as the national preparedness goal of mitigation, as provided in the Presidential Policy Directive (PPD-8). NEHRP also supports the FEMA 2018-2022 Strategic Plan, by contributing to the accomplishment of Strategic Goal 1: Build a Culture of Preparedness and Strategic Goal 2: Ready the Nation for Catastrophic Disasters. Participation in the FEMA NEHRP State Assistance program (and the Individual State Earthquake Assistance funding opportunity) is limited to those States and Territories that have been determined to be at a High to Very High risk of earthquakes.
...Participation in this funding opportunity is further limited to those States and Territories that can provide the statutory 25% non-Federal cost share. The Cost Share requirement does not apply to those Territories that are considered "Insular Areas" (Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) and the U.S. Virgin Islands), and otherwise eligible for program participation. All activities funded by the FEMA NEHRP, Individual State Earthquake Assistance grant program must be consistent with NEHRP Vision, Mission, Goals and FEMA Program Responsibilities (See Appendix C.), of the NOFO, and ultimately result in a measurable enhancement of National seismic safety and earthquake risk awareness.
