Fiscal Year 2024 National Incident Management System, Emergency Management Assistance Compact Program
In support of the National Preparedness Goal, State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) recipients must belong to, be in, or act as a temporary member of the Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC), except for American Samoa and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, which are not required
to belong to EMAC at this time.
The Emergency Management Assistance Compact was ratified by the U. S. Congress (P.L.
104-321).
EMAC signatories include all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands, and the U. S. Virgin Islands.
The federal government doctrinally and financially supports EMAC but does not manage it.
EMAC’s unique relationships with states, regions, territories, and Federal organizations, such as FEMA and the National Guard Bureau, enable it to move a wide variety of resources to stabilize community lifelines immediately after an incident.
Among other things, EMAC assists states in sending personnel, equipment, and commodities to support disaster relief efforts in other states.
The EMAC-generated after-action reports, quarterly reports, and reports on demand will provide data that will enhance current and future emergency management initiatives.
This information will aid in the development and implementation of National Qualification System (NQS) work items, Resource Typing (RT) definitions, and mutual aid tools supporting the NIC’s strategic priorities.Applicants can submit applications for this funding opportunity through FEMA Grants Outcomes (GO).
