FY 2022 Urban Area Security Initiative Program Additional Funding December 17, 2024 Page 2 (FEMA), to assist high -density urban areas to strengthen the nation's communities against potential terrorist attacks and other hazards. The UASI program provides funds to local emergency first responders to enhance security and overall preparedness to prevent, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism. The grant specifically provides funding for training, planning, equipment, exercises, and technical assistance. In FY 2006, the DHS established a combined UASI in the Orange County Urban Area called the Anaheim/Santa Ana Urban Area (ASAUA) UASI. The City of Santa Ana now shares grant administrative responsibilities with the City of Anaheim, annually alternating the function of lead administrative agency. The City of Anaheim is the lead agency for FY 2022 funding and is therefore the UASI Sub -Grantee, with Santa Ana designated as a sub -recipient through Anaheim. The Santa Ana Police Department has worked with the City of Anaheim, the County of Orange, and cities within the Anaheim/Santa Ana Urban Area to determine current capabilities and needs and have established goals and objectives for the Anaheim/Santa Ana Urban Area. The City of Santa Ana will work in collaboration with the City of Anaheim to implement complementary strategies for responding to acts of terrorism. The FY 2022 funds support the Homeland Security Training and Exercise Program to enhance capabilities across multiple disciplines and jurisdictions in areas such as active shooter, mass gathering and civil disturbances, cyber security, emergency management, and advanced life-saving techniques. This appropriation adjustment will add $36,500 to the current grant award of $1,927,800 for a new total grant award of $1,964,300. The funding will be used to support a new training facility and additional regional training for law enforcement. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
