The U.S. Department of Transportation's (DOT), Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration's (PHMSA), Hazardous Materials Grant Program (the program) is comprised of three emergency preparedness grants: Hazardous Materials Emergency Preparedness (HMEP) Grants, Supplemental Public Sector Training Grants (SPSTG), and Hazmat Materials Instructor Training (HMIT) Grants. The program is funded by registration fees collected from hazardous materials (hazmat) shippers and carriers who offer for transportation or transport certain hazmat in intrastate, interstate, or foreign commerce in accordance with 49 CFR Part 107, Subpart G. These fees fund training and planning grants, monitoring and technical assistance, curriculum development, and staffing costs.
