Grant Description

Grants to USA states, territories, and tribal governments to prepare for and minimize the negative impacts of flooding. Applicants are advised that required registrations may take up to several weeks or more to complete. Funding is intended to support community hazard mitigation projects and advance assistance for project design and development.

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). 

FEMA will distribute the available FY 22 FMA funding amount as follows: 

  • Capability and Capacity Building (C&CB): FEMA will select up to $60 million of Capability and Capacity Building (C&CB) to develop future Localized Flood Risk Reduction Projects and/or Individual Flood Mitigation Projects that will subsequently reduce flood claims against the NFIP. C&CB activities will be prioritized and selected according to the following hierarchical order: Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plans under 42 U.S.C. 4104c(c)(3)(F); Technical Assistance under 42 U.S.C. 4104c(c)(3)(J); Project Scoping; and Additional C&CB Activities (Partnership Development; Enhancing Local Floodplain Management; Severe Repetitive Loss (SRL)/Repetitive Loss (RL) Strategy Plan Development; and other eligible C&CB activities under 42 U.S.C. 4104c(c)(3)(G).
  • Localized Flood Risk Reduction Project: FEMA will select up to $340 million of Localized Flood Risk Reduction Projects that address community flood risk for the purpose of reducing NFIP flood claim payments. 
  • Individual Flood Mitigation Project: FEMA will select at least $400 million of projects that mitigate the risk of flooding to individual NFIP insured structures.
