Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 17 MT 041 08 01
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 National Dam Safety Program (NDSP) - Region 8 grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: DHS 17 MT 041 08 01) is a discretionary federal grant offered through the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), administered by FEMA. It was created on June 5, 2017, with an application closing date of July 3, 2017. The program is listed under CFDA 97.041 and is structured as a grant funding instrument under an activity category labeled "Other," which reflects that the work does not fall neatly into a single standard funding activity bucket and instead supports a specialized public safety and risk-reduction function tied to dam safety oversight.
At its core, the NDSP is intended to strengthen state dam safety programs by supporting their ongoing development and maintenance. The focus is not on building new dams, but on making sure that state programs responsible for dam safety have the capacity, tools, and processes to reduce risk and prevent dam incidents. The program emphasizes precautionary actions that help ensure dams remain safe over time, which typically includes activities associated with a statutory dam safety program such as improving inspection practices, enhancing regulatory and compliance capabilities, strengthening emergency preparedness planning and coordination, and supporting training and technical capacity so state personnel can effectively evaluate dam conditions and hazards.
Eligibility for this opportunity is limited to state governments, aligning with the NDSP purpose of supporting state-run dam safety programs that operate under state authority. The listing indicates an expected 51 awards, suggesting broad distribution across multiple jurisdictions rather than a small number of large awards. The award ceiling is shown as 0, which generally signals that an explicit maximum award amount was not specified in the summary fields provided, and that actual award sizes may be determined by program guidance, formula-based allocations, or FEMA funding decisions tied to state needs, performance, or regional considerations.
Region 8 in the title indicates the grant is organized with a regional lens consistent with FEMA and federal regional structures, which can influence administration, coordination, and oversight. In practical terms, the opportunity is designed to help states maintain effective dam safety programs as an ongoing public safety responsibility, supporting the systems and safeguards that reduce the likelihood of dam failure, protect downstream communities, and improve readiness and response planning should dam-related emergencies occur.Apply for DHS 17 MT 041 08 01
