1. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Grant Programs Directorate (GPD)

2. Grant Focus Areas
Homeland Security Ensures the combined expertise and capabilities of Federal, State, territorial, tribal and local governments, and community-based and private organizations are utilized effectively across all hazards planning and response
Transportation Security Enhances the security and preparedness of the Nation’s ports of entry and mass transportation systems to protect the traveling public
Fire Provides equipment, resources and training to enhance fire departments’ and community organizations’ ability to protect the public and their staff from fire related hazards and injuries
Preparedness Supports communication interoperability, information sharing, critical infrastructure hardening, and emergency management resources and personnel

3. National Preparedness Goal (NPG)
Presidential Policy Directive 8: National Preparedness (PPD-8), signed on March 30, 2011, describes the Nation’s approach to preparing for the threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk to the security of the United States
The objective of PPD-8 is to facilitate an integrated, all-of-Nation, risk informed, capabilities-based approach to preparedness.
Using the core capabilities, we achieve the NPG by:
Preventing, avoiding, or stopping a threatened or an actual act of terrorism
Protecting our citizens, residents, visitors, and assets against the greatest threats and hazards in a manner that allows our interests, aspirations, and way of life to thrive
Mitigating the loss of life and property by lessening the impact of future disasters
Responding quickly to save lives, protect property and the environment, and meet basic human needs in the aftermath of a catastrophic incident
Recovering through a focus on the timely restoration, strengthening, and revitalization of infrastructure, housing, and a sustainable economy, as well as the health, social, cultural, historic, and environmental fabric of communities affected by a catastrophic incident
The core capabilities contained in the NPG are the distinct critical elements necessary for our success. They are highly interdependent and will require the use of existing preparedness networks and activities, improve training and exercise programs, promote innovation, and ensure that the administrative, finance, and logistics systems are in place to support these capabilities.

Top Transit Asset List (TTAL) remediation plans was not a funding priority area under TSGP. The focus was on TTAL remediation projects in which plans are complete and can begin and be completed in a timely manner
DHS identified critical infrastructure assets of national concern through the TTAL. Critical infrastructure assets are those vital to the functionality and continuity of a major transit system that their incapacitation or destruction would have a debilitating effect on security, national economic security, public health or safety, or any combination thereof.  With the creation of the TTAL, DHS can now target funding to the remediation of those assets on the list in an informed and risk-based approach
To be consistent SHSP, UASI, and PSGP methodologies, TSGP formula added a new vulnerability component.  This was formulated in conjunction with TSA’s analysis of vulnerable transit areas
Reduced the total number of allowable Investments from 15 to 8 (law enforcement can apply for an additional 5)
Operational activities and TTAL remediation remained the highest priorities for funding under TSGP
Certain ferry systems were eligible to participate in the FY 2012 TSGP and receive funds. However, any ferry system electing to participate and receive funds under the FY 2012 TSGP was not be eligible to participate under the FY 2012 PSGP, and was not considered for funding under the FY 2012 PSGP
