NSGP Appendix | 2023 Page C-3 <br />Allowable Direct Costs <br />Planning <br />Funding may be used for security or emergency planning expenses and the materials required to conduct <br />planning activities. Planning must be related to the protection of the facility and the people within the <br />facility and should include consideration of access and functional needs as well as those with limited <br />English proficiency. Planning efforts can also include conducting risk and resilience assessments on <br />increasingly connected cyber and physical systems, on which security depends, using the Infrastructure <br />Resilience Planning Framework and related CISA resources. Examples of planning activities allowable <br />under this program include: <br />•Development and enhancement of security plans and protocols; <br />•Development or further strengthening of security assessments; <br />•Emergency contingency plans; <br />•Evacuation/Shelter-in-place plans; <br />•Coordination and information sharing with fusion centers; and <br />•Other project planning activities with prior approval from FEMA. <br />Equipment <br />Allowable costs are focused on facility hardening and physical security enhancements. Funding can be <br />used for the acquisition and installation of security equipment on real property (including buildings and <br />improvements) owned or leased by the nonprofit organization, specifically in prevention of and/or <br />protection against the risk of a terrorist or other extremist attack.
