The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through the State of Texas, Division of Emergency Management, awards grant funds to jurisdictions in Texas on the basis of risk, demographics and other related needs to enhance a community's capability to prevent, respond to and recover from acts of terrorism and natural disasters. This grant program encourages jurisdictions to strengthen local and regional preparedness efforts and to seek benefits available through cooperative action. The City of Fort Worth (City) participates with other jurisdictions in the North Central Texas Council of Governments to develop and implement capabilities and processes to increase regional and individual community readiness in alignment with federal and state homeland security strategies. The Fiscal Year 2011 Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) marks the sixth year the City has been awarded funds under the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) grant. Under the Fiscal Year 2011 UASI grant program, Fort Worth, as part of the Dallas —Fort Worth — Arlington urban area, was awarded $4,730,196.56 by the DHS. Funding under the program will be used by the Fire Department, Police Department and other City departments to increase the community's capacity to prepare for, prevent and respond to terrorism incidents. The UASI grant is split into a UASI ($2,874,796.56) grant and a UASI LEAP ($1,855,400.00) grant to ensure we dedicate 25 percent to law enforcement related activities as required by the grant terms and conditions. In addition, the City is one of 124 recipients nationwide to receive funding under the Metropolitan Medical Response System (MMRS) grant, the third sub — program listed above. The MMRS grant will be used to support planning and equipment to improve coordination and response to mass casualty incidents. The State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) supports the implementation of State Homeland Security Strategies to address identified planning, organization, equipment, training and exercise needs to prevent, protect against, respond to and recover from acts of terrorism and other catastrophic events. The funds awarded under the SHSP grant will be used to support technical and tactical training for regional explosive ordinance disposal teams. The Office of Emergency Management coordinates with various City departments in the development and implementation of projects in the areas of threat and vulnerability assessment, risk reduction, plan development, capability enhancement, public education and readiness, training and exercises in support of the overall preparedness efforts of our community. The performance period of the UASI grant is from September 1, 2011 to February 28, 2014. The performance period of the MMRS and SHSP grant is from September 1, 2011 to August 31, 2013.
