Description
The Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) Program is a mechanism used by FEMA to deliver flood information to communities. The program provides funding to eligible recipients to develop flood hazard data and maps, increase public awareness of flood risk, and support communities in reducing flood risk. The program has three categories of allowable activities: Technical Hazard Identification, Risk Analysis and Mapping or Flood Risk Projects, Letter of Map Revision Review, and Project Management. Recipients must submit a draft Mapping Activity Statement (MAS) or Statement of Work (SOW) and must comply with federal statutes, rules, and regulations.
Some key points to consider include:
• Eligible entities include city or township governments, county governments, federally recognized tribal governments, institutions of higher education, and nonprofits with 501(c)(3) IRS status.
• The program has a total funding of $41,000,000 and an estimated 100 awards will be made.
• The period of performance is from October 1, 2026, to September 30, 2029.
• Recipients must submit quarterly performance reports and a final report within 120 days after the end of the period of performance.
