What is the FEMA Mitigation e-Grants system?
An electronic system developed in response to Public Law 106-107, passed on November 20, 1999, which requires that all government agencies both streamline grant application processes and provide for the means to electronically create, review, and submit a grant application via the Internet. The system allows applicants to apply for funding for several FEMA mitigation grant programs using the Internet. FEMA has three mitigation grant programs: the Legislative Pre-Disaster Mitigation program (L-PDM), the Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) program, and the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HGMP). At this time, applications are being accepted into the e-Grants system for L-PDM and FMA grants.
