About this program
The Department of the Army administers Emergency Advance Measures for Flood Prevention (CFDA 12.111), a program that funds emergency work prior to or during flooding to protect against loss of life and property damage, with the most recent grant award dated April 30, 2007.
The program funds temporary emergency interventions such as removal of waterway obstructions, work to prevent dam failure, and preparation for abnormal snowmelt. Assistance requires an immediate threat of unusual flooding and must demonstrate a favorable benefit-cost ratio. The Department of the Army's District Engineer approves or disapproves requests within hours to days of receipt. Only the Governor of the affected State may request assistance by letter or message, detailing State and local mitigation efforts already undertaken. All persons living in flood-prone areas are eligible beneficiaries.
The portfolio reflects minimal recent activity. One cooperative agreement for $3.4 million in federal dollars was obligated in April 2007, with total obligated value of $3.5 million (indicating a $100 thousand non-federal cost share). No grant awards have been recorded in the 19 years since that single cooperative agreement was executed. The Department of the Army is the sole funding agency under this Assistance Listing. The recent award, titled "Advanced Engine Starter/Generator," ran through March 2012, though its apparent scope diverges from the program's stated emergency flood-prevention mission, suggesting either classification overlap or archived data integrity issues.
No active grant opportunities are currently posted or have been posted recently under this program. The absence of award activity since 2007 and the lack of recent solicitations indicate this program is not actively pursuing new applicants. Given the 19-year funding hiatus and the program's design as an emergency-request mechanism rather than a competitive grant solicitation, organizations should verify current program status with the Department of the Army's Corps of Engineers District offices before developing proposals.
