Fiscal Year 2023 Individual State Earthquake Assistance (ISEA) - Region 2
The National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program NEHRP seeks to mitigate earthquake losses in the United States through basic and directed research and implementation activities in the fields of earthquake science and engineering.
NEHRP is a multi-agency program consisting of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), FEMA, the United States Geological Survey (USGS), and the National Science Foundation (NSF).
The NEHRP program supports the mission area of the FY20-24 DHS Strategic Plan titled "Strengthen Preparedness and Resilience," as well as the national preparedness goal of mitigation, as provided in the Presidential Policy Directive (PPD-8).
NEHRP also supports the FEMA 2022-2026 Strategic Plan, by contributing to the accomplishment of Strategic Goal 3:
Promote and Sustain a Ready FEMA and Prepared Nation.
Participation in the FEMA NEHRP State Assistance program is limited to those States and Territories that have been determined to be at a High to Very High risk of earthquakes.
Participation in this funding opportunity is further limited to those States and Territories that can provide the statutory 25% non-Federal cost share.
The Cost Share requirement does not apply to those Territories that are considered "Insular Areas" (Guam and the U. S. Virgin Islands), and otherwise eligible for program participation.
All activities funded by the FEMA NEHRP, Individual State Earthquake Assistance grant program must be consistent with NEHRP Vision, Mission, Goals and FEMA Program Responsibilities (See Appendix A.), of the NOFO, and ultimately result in a measurable enhancement of National seismic safety and earthquake risk awareness.Note:
For programs in FEMA GO, the following will be added at the end of the Funding Opportunity Description:
