FEMA is offering the FY 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act Port Security Grant Program to strengthen the Nation’s critical infrastructure against potential terrorist attacks. This grant is for implementing Area Maritime Transportation Security Plans and facility security plans, targeting port authorities, facility operators, and State and local government agencies providing port security services. Established under the Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002, this program is a vital tool for enhancing national security. Applicants are encouraged to submit through Grants.gov, with an alternative option via OJP’s Grant Management System if needed. A key requirement is that applicants pursuing construction projects must complete the Assurances for Construction Programs (SF-424D) form, even if listed as optional.
