The Department of Natural Resources Colorado, acting through its Executive Director's Office, was awarded a $312,588 Project Grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) under the Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) Program (CFDA 97.045). The grant aims to strengthen the National Flood Insurance Program's (NFIP) effectiveness by fostering partnerships to identify flood risks, develop flood hazard data and maps, increase public awareness, and inform mitigation planning and strategies. Under this multi-year award, which runs from September 1, 2023 to September 30, 2027, the Department will provide a range of technical services related to flood mapping, risk assessments, data modeling, community engagement, and mitigation activities. The Department frequently collaborates with local municipalities, counties, Colorado Parks and Wildlife, and educational institutions like Colorado State University as sub-awardees to execute grant-funded projects across the state.
