Dear Homeland Security Partners, Please
see the below message from the Federal
Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Grant Programs Directorate (GPD)
regarding revisions to the proposed enhancements of the
State Homeland
Security Program (SHSP) and Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) risk
methodology and the webinars that have been scheduled to discuss the proposed
changes. Thank you. Best Regards,
Office of Intergovernmental Affairs U.S. Department
of Homeland Security After receiving feedback from state,
territory, and urban area stakeholders, FEMA’s Grant Programs Directorate
(GPD) has made revisions to the proposed enhancements of the State Homeland
Security Program (SHSP) and Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) risk
methodology. GPD is hosting two webinars to present and
discuss these new proposed changes on November 2nd and 7th.
We encourage you to invite all your stakeholders and partners, including law enforcement,
emergency managers, first responders, as well as those representing other
geographic areas and associations affected by these grants. Materials explaining new
variables and data sets, threat landscapes, and analyses relied upon by GPD, will all be shared in advance of the webinars.
Following
these sessions, GPD seeks feedback on the updated proposed enhancements from
states, territories, the nation’s 100 most populous metropolitan statistical
areas, and impacted law enforcement, emergency managers, first responders,
and those representing other geographic areas and associations. Written
comments on the updated proposed enhancements can be sent to FEMA-MSA-Process@fema.dhs.gov. Responses
are due no later than November 10, 2022. All stakeholder feedback will be analyzed
against the proposed Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 recommendations to determine if
there should be any additional changes to these proposed risk methodology
enhancements before implementation for the FY 2023 grants cycle. A summary of
the feedback will be presented to the Department of Homeland Security
Secretary and the FEMA Administrator, along with a recommended path forward on implementing
changes. Please note, we anticipate commencing
discussions on FY 2024 grants in mid-January. We
appreciate your continued partnership in this important endeavor and thank
you for your support in shaping the future of the Homeland Security Grant
Program. Please feel free to contact us with questions at FEMA-MSA-Process@fema.dhs.gov. Webinar
