The Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) was awarded a $5,127,976.18 Project Grant by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) on July 8, 2024 under the Fire Management Assistance Grant (FMAG) Program (CFDA 97.046). The grant funding will support TDEM's efforts to repair or replace disaster-damaged facilities in Del Valle, Austin, TX. TDEM frequently partners with other state agencies, local governments, and non-profit organizations as sub-recipients to carry out critical emergency management activities. In this case, TDEM has sub-awarded portions of the grant to the Texas A&M Forest Service to assist with wildfire mitigation, forest management, and conservation initiatives. Through the administration of this FMAG grant, TDEM aims to enhance Texas' capacity to prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural disasters while delivering essential services to protect public health and safety.
