<br />Attachment A <br /> <br />FYQ5 HOMELAND SECURITY GRANT PROGRAM <br /> <br />available at htto://www.oio.usdoi.oov/FinGuide/. DHS administers cost sharing <br />requirements in accordance with 44 CFR 13.24, which is located at <br />htto:/ /a25 7.0 .akamaitech. net/7 /257 /2422/04nov20031500/edocket.access.ooo .oov/cfr 2 <br />003/octotr/44cfr13.24.htm. <br /> <br />C. Program Requirements <br /> <br />ODP does not require a specific number of activities or projects but expects that the <br />statement of work proposed will be proportionate to the level of the state emergency <br />management program and of appropriate emergency management components, as <br />evidenced by the EMAP assessment, other hazards/vulnerability and needs <br />assessments, the mitigation plan, post-disaster reviews, corrective actions programs, <br />and the EMPG funding appointed to those tasks. <br /> <br />EMPG is a consolidated grant, which originally included programs that provided formula <br />and project grants. The current program is primarily a formula grant providing support <br />for essential expenses including salaries, benefits, equipment, supplies, maintenance of <br />facilities, and other necessary costs of state and local emergency management <br />departments and agencies. The normal capability-building program activities of the <br />state and local emergency management organizations should be described in the <br />program narrative, categorized by emergency management functions as described <br />above. Special projects are also allowable under EMPG, as they were under several of <br />the original constituent programs. Such projects may be included within the framework <br />of the emergency management functions or presented separately. <br /> <br />A state's EMPG should establish the framework for accountability, which should be based <br />on results, not processes. In order to develop a results-oriented program, a state should be <br />able to answer the following questions: <br /> <br />· What are we trying to achieve or what is the problem needing a solution? <br />. How will we get there? <br />. How will we know if we are getting there? <br /> <br />Once the state selects the issue it would like to address, it can determine the issue-related <br />goal (the desired outcome), the strategies it will pursue to achieve the goal, and how it will <br />recognize progress in achieving the outcome. <br /> <br />Grantees must maintain and expand any necessary capabilities to have an effective <br />emergency management program. These capabilities must be able to address aI/- <br />hazards emergencies. ODP will work with the states as necessary to ensure that proposed <br />goals, objectives, and projections of accomplishments include, or provide for the <br />development of, appropriate baselines, tracking methodology(ies), and reporting <br />mechanisms. <br /> <br />DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY <br /> <br />OFFICE FOR DOMESTIC PREPAREDNESS <br /> <br />86 <br /> <br />III <br />I- <br />2 <br />~ <br />CI <br />III <br />U <br />2 <br />< <br />:IE <br />a= <br />o <br />... <br />a= <br />III <br />11. <br />I- <br />2 <br />III <br />:IE <br />III <br />CI <br />< <br />2 <br />~ <br />> <br />U <br />2 <br />III <br />CI <br />a= <br />III <br />:IE <br />11.I <br />
