The total award is $643,898. • Background and Purpose The Region One Homeland Security Council has allocated funding to the Whatcom County Division of Emergency Management from the Federal Fiscal Year (IFFY) 2004 State Homeland Security Grant Program (SHSGP). These are pass- through grants from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, flowing to the State Military Department Emergency Management Division (EMD), to the Regional Council, for distribution at the local level. The FFY'04 grant is intended to supplement the local Homeland Security (HLS) planning, training, exercise, and equipment program. The performance period for the grant is from December 1, 2003 through October 31, 2005. Within 30 days of the grant award to the state, the U.S. Office of Domestic Preparedness (ODP) required that we develop and submit an Initial Strategy Implementation Plan ([SIP) for the FFY '04 grant. The Whatcom County ISIP was developed after surveying local jurisdictions, and conducting a strategic planning workshop on homeland security needs. The surveys and priorities were distilled into four major project categories: A) Establish /enhance citizen emergency preparedness awareness; B) Develop /enhance interoperable communication systems; C) Establish/enhance public - private emergency preparedness; D) Assess the vulnerability of, and harden, critical infrastructures. Based upon our ISIP submission, the state and ODP have approved an initial budget request. They have approved $201,581 for planning, $160,000 for equipment, $115,500 for training and $147,500 for exercises. A maximum of 3% of the total award ($19,317) is allowed for eligible administrative expenses. In February we will be submitting a Biannual Strategy Implementation Report and will have the opportunity to amend our initial budget request. We are currently awaiting Requests for Proposals that will greatly assist us to more accurately amend the budget. Until that time, we have reserved $65,000 in the planning category, and the $19,317 in the administrative category, as unallocated funds. Further strategic planning with eligible local jurisdictions will result in a determination for the most beneficial community use of the unallocated funds. Funding Amount and Source $643,898 from a Department of Homeland Security federal indirect grant. Please contact Neil Clement at extension 50400 for additional information.
