Alternatives to Fiscal Year 2026 Flood Mitigation Assistance Swift Current

This grant will fund projects to identify capability gaps and implement solutions for alert and warning to deliver timely public warning and emergency information and to protect critical infrastructure. There are rapid changes in technology, cybersecurity threats, and public preferences for consuming content, recipients will work with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to explore currently available, flexible, innovative, and forward-looking capabilities to craft and disseminate emergency alerts and warnings across existing and new distribution pathways, including streaming services, sirens, giant-voice systems, satellites, internet-connected devices, and other solutions.

The purpose of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 NIMS Cooperative Agreement is to support EMAC, which is a congressionally ratified mutual aid compact (Pub. L. No. 104-321). The “purpose of the compact is to provide for mutual assistance between the states entering into the compact in managing any emergency disaster that is duly declared by the Governor of the affected state, whether arising from natural disaster, technological hazard, man-made disaster, civil emergency aspects of resources shortages, community disorders, insurgency or enemy attack.” The FY 2026 NIMS Cooperative Agreement The NIMS-EMAC NOFO addresses the challenge of closing funding gaps for EMAC operations, ensuring a swift and coordinated response to emergent threats and disasters. The success of EMAC rests on sustaining, maintaining and improving its operational capability and the capabilities and implementation of its members. It seeks to solve the problem of fragmented emergency management efforts by strengthening interconnectivity and collaboration between federal agencies and non-federal partners. The NIMS-EMAC NOFO supports Mission 5: Build a Resilient Nation and Respond to Incidents, Objective 5.2: Strengthen National Resilience, and Objective 5.4: Enhance Training and Readiness of First Responders, of the DHS 2023 Quadrennial Homeland Security Review (QHSR). Specifically, it aims to streamline the integration and coordination of resources during crises, allowing for quicker adaptation and mobilization across various jurisdictions.

The National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP) is a coordinating program for earthquake monitoring, research, implementation, education, and outreach activities developed and conducted by these four agencies:  • Federal Emergency Management Agency • National Institute of Standards and Technology • National Science Foundation, and • U.S. Geological Survey ​FEMA awards competitive grants to nonprofit organizations and institutions of higher education that possess the critical skills necessary to develop and implement regional (multi-state) and/or national earthquake risk mitigation activities on behalf of states and territories participating in the FEMA NEHRP State Assistance program.This notice funds multi-state and national activities and is not intended to assist any one particular state or territory. Priorities include: Support for the Eastern and Western assistance regions; Support for Seismic Community Professional Development; Support for Business Sector Outreach; and Support for the annual earthquake preparedness drills (ShakeOut) for individuals and communities.​ All activities funded by the MSNEA grant program must be consistent with the NEHRP vision, mission, and strategic goals.

Modification 000003: The purpose of this modification is to revise NOFO Part 1. Section I.A.1 is revised to correct the Topic Area 1b cost share to 20% and Section IV.C.2 is revised to delete the Environmental Considerations Summary and Environmental Impact Volume from the Summary of Application Requirements table. This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) will seek proposals for specific research and development (R&D) projects to improve recovery efficiency from unconventional oil and natural gas reservoirs and to advance technologies for the treatment of flowback and produced water from oil and natural gas production operations. Despite increasing energy for demand, recovery efficiency for oil and natural gas from unconventional reservoirs can average less than 10 percent. This NOFO will enable rapid field deployment of a variety of novel technologies and processes related to improving primary and enhanced recovery with the goal of significantly improving resource recovery and accelerating industry uptake. This NOFO will also support the field testing and validation of water treatment technologies of produced water from oil and natural gas production operations to avoid deep well injection and potential issues with induced seismicity and interaction with underground sources of drinking water.

Advancing Oil and Natural Gas Production and Delivery This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is seeking proposals to advance cost-effective technologies for improving the efficiency, reliability, and resilience of the Unites States oil and natural gas supply chain. This funding opportunity spans research and development efforts focused on enhancing resource utilization, modernizing infrastructure, and accelerating digital transformation within the sector.
