Program Information
The Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act authorized $31 million for State allocations for Planning, Project and Technical Assistance grants, and for administrative costs to support the FY 2007 FMA program. Availability of FMA funds is dependent upon the amount available for transfer from the NFIF through offset collections assessed and collected under the NFIP.
Priority: Mitigation activities that reduce or eliminate the long-term risk of flood damage to insured properties.The FY 2007 FMA Program Guidance provides additional information regarding the FY 2007 FMA program.
The FY 2007 FMA Program Guidance is available from the FEMA Library.
Reopening of the FY 2007 FMA Application Period
After processing all applications received by the original deadline, February 28, 2007, FEMA determined there was a limited amount of excess funds in the 2007 FMA Program. Therefore, FEMA reopened the FMA application period to make these funds available to States, Territories, and Tribal governments until June 4, 2007. The Assistance Administrator for Mitigation's memorandum to the FEMA Regional Offices on this subject, dated May 16, 2007, is available here. In addition, FY07 FMA Second Application Period Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) and a State Model Letter are available.
