Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 23 NPD 040 000 99
The Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness Program (CSEPP) is a federal continuation grant program designed to strengthen emergency preparedness and protective actions for communities and workers located near U.S. chemical weapons stockpile and demilitarization sites. It is funded through the Department of Defense chemical demilitarization program, which is treated as a major defense acquisition effort. In practical terms, CSEPP exists to make sure state and local jurisdictions have the planning, training, coordination, and response capabilities needed to protect the public and on-site personnel in the event of an incident involving chemical agent storage or disposal operations.
CSEPP specifically supports and complements the U.S. Army Chemical Materials Activity (CMA). CMA's mission centers on the safe storage and management of chemical stockpile materials, with an emphasis on maximizing protection for workers, surrounding populations, and the environment. CSEPP functions as the preparedness and community-protection counterpart to that mission by helping ensure that off-post and state-level emergency management systems are ready to respond effectively, communicate clearly, and coordinate across agencies if something goes wrong.
Administratively, the program sits within FEMA, under the National Preparedness Directorate's Technological Hazards Division (THD). FEMA manages the program through a national office at FEMA Headquarters as well as through FEMA regional program offices in the regions where the relevant chemical installations are located. That structure reflects the program's operational reality: preparedness and response readiness must be tailored to the specific site risks, nearby jurisdictions, and established state and local emergency management frameworks, while still following national-level guidance and oversight.
The published opportunity is identified as a continuation funding opportunity, meaning it is primarily intended to sustain ongoing program activities rather than launch an entirely new competitive round. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates a more hands-on federal partnership than a standard grant, with substantial involvement by the awarding agency in areas such as program oversight, coordination, and performance monitoring. The activity category is Disaster Prevention and Relief, and the associated CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number is 97.040.
Eligibility is limited to state governments. This aligns with how CSEPP is generally implemented, with states playing a central role in coordinating preparedness activities among emergency management, public health, law enforcement, fire services, and other stakeholders that may be involved in planning for chemical incident scenarios. The awarding agency is the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), administered through FEMA.
Key administrative details in the source data include the funding opportunity title "Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness Program (CSEPP)," funding opportunity number DHS 23 NPD 040 000 99, and an opportunity record created on March 17, 2023, with an original closing date of April 17, 2023. The listing indicates an expected number of awards of 2. The award ceiling is shown as 0, which usually signals that the maximum award amount is not specified in that field or is determined through other program documentation, negotiations, or allocations rather than a single published cap.
Overall, CSEPP is best understood as a targeted, site-adjacent preparedness program that connects Department of Defense chemical demilitarization activities with FEMA-led emergency preparedness support for affected states, ensuring that planning and readiness measures are in place to protect people and the environment around chemical materials operations.Apply for DHS 23 NPD 040 000 99
