Applicants and funding

Who can apply?

BRIC Subapplication Basics

• Direct applicants include states, District of Columbia, U.S. territories, and federally recognized Tribal Nations • Local governments generally participate as subapplicants through an applicant agency • Multi-jurisdictional efforts are allowed, but one entity must serve as the subapplicant with primary responsibility • Subapplicants and applicants seeking project funds must have an approved hazard mitigation plan at the application deadline and at award, with limited exceptions

What Is Eligible • Infrastructure-focused projects • Limited capacity-building • Applicant and subapplicant management costs What Is Not Eligible • Phased projects • Hazard mitigation plan development • Stand-alone project scoping Critical Reminders • Subapplications go through the state • Many states require an early LOI or pre-application • Missing a state deadline means the project will not advance to FEMA
