Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 21 MT 041 05 01
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 National Dam Safety Program (NDSP) State Assistance grant for Region 5 is a discretionary grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA. It is designed to help State governments build, sustain, and strengthen effective dam safety programs. At its core, the funding supports the ongoing establishment and maintenance of state-level capabilities that reduce dam-related hazards, protect human life and property, and improve how states oversee, regulate, and manage dam safety.
The grant focuses on three main objectives. First, it aims to reduce risks to life and property associated with dams by improving the effectiveness of state dam safety programs, which can include better oversight, stronger technical capacity, and more consistent risk-informed decision-making. Second, it seeks to increase public and stakeholder awareness of the risks associated with dams and the value of state dam safety programs, recognizing that communication and outreach are key parts of reducing risk and improving preparedness. Third, it supports advancing the state of practice in dam safety and dam risk management, which points to encouraging modern technical approaches, improved assessment methods, and stronger program standards over time.
This opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number DHS 21 MT 041 05 01 and is tied to CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) 97.041. The eligible applicants are State governments, meaning the program is structured to fund state dam safety offices or equivalent state entities responsible for dam safety activities. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the funding activity category is listed as "Other," indicating it does not fit neatly into more common categories like law enforcement or fire prevention, but is instead focused on dam safety program support and risk management.
The opportunity was created on May 17, 2021, with an original application closing date of June 18, 2021. FEMA anticipated making around six awards for this Region 5 cycle. The published award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically suggests that a fixed maximum award amount was not specified in the summary data and that actual award sizes would be determined based on program guidance, available appropriations, applicant eligibility, and FEMA review decisions.
Overall, this Region 5 NDSP State Assistance grant opportunity is aimed at strengthening state-run dam safety systems so states can better identify and manage dam risks, improve public safety outcomes, and keep pace with evolving best practices in dam safety and risk management.Apply for DHS 21 MT 041 05 01
