The Homeland Security Grant Program
(HSGP) is a primary funding mechanism for building and sustaining
national preparedness capabilities. HSGP is comprised of four
separate grant programs: the State Homeland Security Program
(SHSP), the Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI), the
Metropolitan Medical Response Systems (MMRS), and the Citizen Corps
Program (CCP). Together, these grants fund a range of preparedness
activities, including planning, organization, equipment purchase,
training, exercises, and management and administration
costs.

From the last OMB approval, OMB
Collection 1660-0119, FEMA Preparedness Grants: Operation
Stonegarden (OPSG) Collection was a stand-alone program and had its
own PRA collection. This program has since been merged into the
FEMA Preparedness Grants: Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP)
collection under OMB Collection 1660-0125 and as a result the
burden hours have increased from 308,464 hours to 333,502 hours. In
2009, OPSG was no longer its own program, the grant program has
been incorporated into the HSGP grant and the forms used for the
OPSG program has been included in the collection's submission which
has resulted in an increase of average burden hours.
