Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 17 MT 041 05 02
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 National Dam Safety Program (NDSP) - Region 5 grant opportunity is a discretionary federal grant offered through the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), administered by FEMA, to help strengthen and sustain state dam safety programs. The core purpose of the NDSP is to support states in developing, improving, and maintaining their statutory dam safety programs so they can better prevent dam failures and reduce the risks dams may pose to communities, infrastructure, and the environment. In practical terms, the program is aimed at helping state-level dam safety authorities take proactive precautions that improve dam safety oversight, preparedness, and long-term program capability.
This opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number DHS 17 MT 041 05 02 and falls under CFDA 97.041. It is categorized as a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) and listed as “Other” for the funding activity category, reflecting that it supports a specialized public safety and infrastructure risk-reduction mission rather than a more common category such as health, education, or transportation. The eligible applicants for this particular opportunity are state governments, meaning funding is intended to flow to official state agencies or state entities responsible for dam safety regulation and program execution, rather than to local governments, private organizations, universities, or individuals.
The posting indicates it was created on June 5, 2017, with an original closing date of July 3, 2017, establishing a relatively short application window typical of many annual federal program cycles. The opportunity anticipates up to 51 awards, suggesting broad distribution across eligible jurisdictions and indicating that the NDSP is structured to reach many state programs rather than concentrating funding into only a small number of large awards. The listed award ceiling is shown as 0, which commonly signals that a single maximum award amount is not specified in the summary data and may depend on allocations, formulas, or detailed guidance in the full notice and related program documentation.
Overall, the FY 2017 NDSP - Region 5 opportunity is designed to reinforce the capacity of state dam safety programs to perform their core responsibilities, which generally include implementing dam safety regulations, maintaining dam inventories, supporting inspections and safety evaluations, improving emergency action planning and coordination, and enhancing the administrative and technical foundations needed to manage dam safety risk over time. The emphasis in the description is on enabling states to take preventative measures and maintain effective statutory programs, aligning the grant with public safety outcomes and the reduction of dam-related hazards through consistent state-level oversight and preparedness.Apply for DHS 17 MT 041 05 02
