About this opportunity

The Fiscal Year 2023 Flood Mitigation Assistance Swift Current grant opportunity seeks individual flood mitigation projects from state, federally recognized tribal, and local governments. Administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, eligible applicants must have received a major disaster declaration for a flood event between June 1, 2023 and May 31, 2024. Funding will support structure elevation, property acquisition, floodproofing, and mitigation reconstruction projects. Applications will be evaluated based on cost effectiveness and risk reduction criteria, with submission deadlines varying from 120 to 150 days depending on disaster declaration date.

$300 million is available nationally to support projects up to $40 million per applicant. Work will be performed within applicant locations in the United States that have received a qualifying disaster declaration, with cost sharing requirements ranging from 75-100% federal funding depending on project type and location.

Synopsis

Update #2 · Latest ·

Fiscal Year 2023 Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) Swift Current aims to better align the delivery of FMA flood mitigation funding to the disaster survivor experience. The purpose of FMA Swift Current is to reduce or eliminate the flood risk to NFIP-participating communities and repetitive flood damage to structures and buildings insured by the NFIP following a flood-related disaster event, and to enhance community flood resilience within NFIP-participating communities. It does so by providing funding for mitigation opportunities immediately after a flood disaster event with the aim of delivering mitigation outcomes as quickly as possible.


Swift Current is a grant opportunity under the FMA grant program. The FMA grant program makes federal funds available to states, U.S. territories, federally recognized Tribal governments, and local governments to reduce or eliminate the risk of repetitive flood damage to buildings and structures insured under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), and within NFIP-participating communities. It does so with a recognition of the growing flood hazards associated with climate change, and of the need for flood hazard risk mitigation activities that promote climate adaptation, equity, and resilience with respect to flooding. These include both acute extreme weather events and chronic stressors which have been observed and are expected to increase in intensity and frequency in the future.


Projects or initiatives that are eligible for funding under this announcement may or may not involve Geospatial (GIS) issues.


Amendment #1 edits the Fiscal Year 2023 Flood Mitigation Assistance Swift Current Notice of Funding Opportunity to reflect change language and additional language based on feedback and questions from FEMA Regions and eligible applicants activated for Swift Current.
