Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 22 MT 041 02 01

The Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 National Dam Safety Program (NDSP) - Region 2 grant opportunity is a discretionary FEMA program under the U.S. Department of Homeland Security aimed at lowering the risk of dam failures and the cascading impacts those failures can have on people, property, and the environment. The program is framed around strengthening dam safety policy and practice nationwide by promoting consistent standards and by sharing proven methods across the dam safety community. It also ties directly to FEMA's 2022-2026 Strategic Plan, specifically Goal 2 (Lead Whole Community in Climate Resilience) and Objective 2.3 (Empower Risk-Informed Decision Making), which signals that FEMA views dam safety not just as an engineering issue but as a core climate resilience and risk management priority.

At its core, the NDSP focuses on improving how dams are evaluated, designed, operated, maintained, and prepared for emergencies, with an emphasis on practical approaches that are both technologically sound and economically feasible. One major objective is to ensure both new and existing dams are safe by supporting programs and procedures that reduce hazards on a national scale. Another objective is to encourage the use of widely accepted engineering policies and procedures throughout the full dam lifecycle, including site investigation, design, construction, ongoing operations, maintenance, and emergency preparedness planning. The program also pushes for every state to have an effective dam safety program grounded in state standards, helping to reduce unevenness in capability from one jurisdiction to another.

Beyond engineering and regulation, the opportunity highlights public readiness and communication. FEMA includes an objective to develop and implement a comprehensive hazard education and public awareness initiative, reflecting the idea that communities downstream of dams need to be better informed and better prepared to mitigate, respond to, and recover from dam incidents. The program also emphasizes expanding federal technical assistance to non-federal dam safety practitioners, which typically means providing expertise, guidance, and support materials that state and other non-federal partners can use to improve their programs. A related objective focuses on improving dam security by developing technical assistance materials, seminars, and guidelines, acknowledging that dams can present security concerns in addition to natural hazard and infrastructure risks.

From an administrative standpoint, this opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number DHS 22 MT 041 02 01 and CFDA 97.041. The funding instrument is a grant, and it is categorized as discretionary funding. Eligibility is limited to state governments, indicating the funds are intended to bolster or supplement state-level dam safety programs rather than directly fund private entities or local governments as primary applicants. The posting indicates an expected three awards for this regional opportunity. The notice lists an award ceiling of 0, which typically suggests the ceiling is not specified in the summary field and would need to be confirmed in the full notice or related program guidance. The opportunity was created on May 16, 2022, with an original application closing date of July 15, 2022.

Overall, the Region 2 NDSP grant opportunity is designed to help states strengthen dam safety systems through improved standards, better engineering practice across the dam lifecycle, stronger emergency preparedness, more robust public education, expanded technical assistance, and improved security guidance, all in service of reducing catastrophic risk and supporting broader resilience goals.
