Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 22 MT 082 10 01
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 Individual State Earthquake Assistance (ISEA) - Region 10 opportunity is a FEMA grant offered under the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP). Its core purpose is to reduce earthquake-related losses in the United States by supporting practical, state-level activities that improve seismic safety and increase public and institutional awareness of earthquake risk. NEHRP is a long-running, multi-agency effort that brings together FEMA, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), and the National Science Foundation (NSF). While the broader NEHRP program spans research and implementation across earthquake science and engineering, this specific funding stream focuses on implementation-oriented assistance that states can use to strengthen readiness and mitigation outcomes.
This grant aligns with federal preparedness and resilience priorities. The program is positioned to support the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Strategic Plan for FY20-24, particularly the mission area focused on strengthening preparedness and resilience, and it connects to the national preparedness goal of mitigation described in Presidential Policy Directive 8 (PPD-8). It also supports the FEMA 2022-2026 Strategic Plan by contributing to Strategic Goal 3, which emphasizes promoting and sustaining a ready FEMA and a prepared nation. In practical terms, FEMA is looking for projects that translate earthquake risk knowledge into action through planning, outreach, coordination, and other activities that lead to measurable improvements in seismic safety.
Eligibility is limited and targeted. Only state governments can apply under this Region 10 announcement, and participation is restricted to states and territories that FEMA has determined to be at High to Very High earthquake risk. In addition, applicants generally must be able to meet a statutory 25 percent non-federal cost share requirement. The cost share requirement is waived for eligible insular areas (specifically Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands) if they otherwise qualify for participation. This structure is meant to focus limited federal resources on the jurisdictions facing the greatest seismic threat while ensuring that participating applicants can match funds and sustain the work.
The funded activities must be consistent with the NEHRP vision, mission, and goals, as well as FEMA program responsibilities (referenced in the Notice of Funding Opportunity as Appendix K). The key expectation is that the work results in a measurable enhancement of national seismic safety and earthquake risk awareness. This emphasizes outcomes, not just effort, so proposed projects should be framed in a way that demonstrates clear deliverables and results tied to improved preparedness, mitigation, or risk communication.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary grant (not a formula allocation) issued by the Department of Homeland Security through FEMA. The Assistance Listing (CFDA) number is 97.082. The opportunity number is DHS 22 MT 082 10 01. The notice was created on May 2, 2022, with an original application closing date of May 31, 2022. For Region 10, FEMA anticipated making 4 awards, with an award ceiling of $178,528.Apply for DHS 22 MT 082 10 01
