Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 21 MT 041 07 01

The Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 National Dam Safety Program (NDSP) State Assistance grant for Region 7 is a discretionary grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA. It is part of the National Dam Safety Program under CFDA 97.041 and is intended specifically for state-level dam safety efforts. The opportunity was posted on May 17, 2021, with an original application closing date of June 18, 2021. FEMA anticipated making about four awards under this Region 7 notice.

The central purpose of this funding is to help states establish, strengthen, and sustain effective dam safety programs. In practical terms, the grant is meant to support the ongoing systems and capabilities states use to oversee dam safety, with the overarching goals of protecting human life and property and improving the overall quality and effectiveness of state dam safety programs. Rather than focusing on a single construction project, the intent is broader program support tied to how states regulate, assess, manage, and communicate dam-related risks.

The grant’s objectives emphasize three main outcomes. First, it aims to reduce risks to life and property associated with dams, which generally includes improving a state’s ability to identify hazards, prioritize risks, and take steps that prevent failures or lessen consequences. Second, it seeks to increase awareness of dam-related risks and the value of state dam safety programs, which often involves outreach, education, and coordination so that dam owners, local communities, and other stakeholders understand potential impacts and the importance of preparedness and compliance. Third, it aims to advance the state of practice for dam safety and dam risk management, meaning states are encouraged to improve technical methods, adopt better risk-informed approaches, and modernize policies, tools, and professional practices that strengthen dam safety decision-making over time.

Eligibility is limited to state governments, reflecting the program’s focus on supporting official state dam safety programs and the public-safety responsibilities they carry. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is listed as “Other,” indicating the work supported may span multiple types of programmatic and technical activities related to dam safety rather than fitting neatly into a single standard category. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0, which typically means the specific maximum award amount is not provided in the summary data and would be detailed in the full notice or related FEMA guidance for the program.
