The objectives of the CTP program are primarily to support the mission and objectives of the NFIP's Flood Hazard Mapping Program through FEMA's flood hazard identification and risk assessment programs, including the Risk Mapping, Assessment and Planning (Risk MAP) acquisition program. The vision for Risk MAP is to deliver quality data that increases public awareness of flood risk and leads to action that reduces flood risk to life and property. Through more precise flood mapping products, risk assessment tools, and planning and outreach support, Risk MAP strengthens the local ability to make informed decisions about reducing flood risk. The Risk MAP process was developed not only to introduce new and useful tools to help address these challenges, but also to create partnerships with communities affected by flooding and other hazards. By engaging local communities throughout the process and by sharing ownership of the products, Risk MAP results in tools that meet the needs of individual communities and stakeholders, and can be used to effectively communicate and reduce risk from flooding and other hazards for citizens across the United States. The CTP supports Risk MAP in developing flood hazard data and maps for communities that have never had identified risks, building on effective flood hazard data and flood insurance rate maps (FIRMS), and increasing public awareness of flood risk and potential mitigation options to reduce that risk and better inform planning. Over the course of FY22, CTPs processed over 200 Letters of Map Change, delivered Flood Insurance Rate Maps to 307 communities for review and initiated approximately 40,000 miles of stream studies to be updated.Additional information about Risk MAP (including goals, strategies, progress, and success stories), can be found on FEMA's website at Risk Mapping, Assessment and Planning (Risk MAP) FEMA.gov.For additional information on the CTP program, please visit the CTP program website located at Cooperating Technical Partners Program FEMA.gov.Note: For programs in FEMA GO, the following will be added at the end of the Funding Opportunity Description: "Applicants can submit applications for this funding opportunity through FEMA Grants Outcomes (GO).
