Abstract: This emergency request is coming because of allocated funding associated with the attached Public Law 118-47 Further Consolidated Appropriations Act 2024. On March 23, 2024, the President signed the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 (Pub. L. No. 118-47) (“Act”), which includes statutory appropriations for the EOCPG, EMPG Program, IBSGP, SSP, and NSGP. The purpose of these authorities is to support immediate needs in response to delivering and supporting grant programs that help the Nation before, during, and after disasters in order to make the country more resilient. Section 303 of the Act requires FEMA to make applications available to applicants for the IBSGP and NSGP no later than 60 days after March 23, 2024 (date Act was enacted), applicants to submit applications no later than 80 days after the grant announcement, and the FEMA Administrator to act (e.g. announce award amounts) within 65 days after the receipt of an application.

Emergency Justfication: This emergency request is coming because of allocated funding associated with the attached Public Law 118-47 Further Consolidated Appropriations Act 2024.

ICR Summary of Burden

	Total Approved	Previously Approved	Change Due to New Statute	Change Due to Agency Discretion	Change Due to Adjustment in Estimate	Change Due to Potential Violation of the PRA
Annual Number of Responses	3,256	0	0	183	3,073	0

Burden increases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Increase Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: For most instruments, the changes in burden hours are adjustments reflecting correction of data entry, rounding, and calculation errors entered under Questions 12 and/or 15 in prior collections. For example, the NSGP Investment Justification burden hour calculation was corrected under Question 12 above to reflect the correct number of burden hours that should have been entered in a previous collection. For the NSGP Prioritization of Investment Justification, the increase is a program increase as the instrument is collecting additional information from respondents on whether Investment Justifications contain disallowed costs. For the SSP Application Worksheet, the increase is a program change as the instrument was edited to collect additional information from applicants to score their applications to the competitive version of the program.
