This $3,225,643.08 federal Project Grant award was provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) through the National Dam Safety Program (CFDA 97.041) to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR). The award supports the rehabilitation of high-hazard potential dams across Minnesota to improve dam safety and reduce risks to life, property, and the environment. Specifically, the grant funds will be used by the Minnesota DNR to conduct comprehensive dam inspections, develop emergency action plans, and implement critical infrastructure improvements for dams that fail to meet minimum safety standards. This multi-year (September 2024 to September 2027) initiative is part of FEMA's broader efforts to encourage the establishment of effective state-level dam safety programs nationwide.
