This federal Project Grant award, totaling $1,318,665.33, was provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) under the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (CFDA 97.039). The objective of this program is to support the repair, replacement, and mitigation of disaster-damaged facilities and infrastructure across the United States to enhance community resilience and minimize potential losses from future hazards.
The primary activities funded through this grant include infrastructure repairs, emergency planning, public warning system upgrades, hazard mitigation planning, and community resilience enhancement. The Indiana Department of Homeland Security received the grant as the prime recipient and administering agency, and subsequently provided sub-awards to local government entities such as Owen County and County of Johnson to implement specific disaster mitigation projects, including the installation of outdoor warning sirens.
