Summary
FEMA is asking for your thoughts on keeping their Grants Reporting Tool (GRT) going strong! This online tool helps State, local, Tribal, and territorial groups easily report on their preparedness grants. If you’re involved with these grants, you’ve got until April 13, 2026, to share your feedback—no extra costs, just smoother reporting ahead!
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.
Estimated Reporting Burden and Costs
FEMA estimates 81 respondents will submit 162 responses annually to the GRT, with a total annual burden of 2,471 hours and an estimated total annual respondent cost of $130,741; FEMA estimates the annual federal cost at $1,281,820. These totals apply to the information collection extension (OMB No. 1660-0117).
SLTT Grant Recipients Must Use GRT
If you are a State, local, Tribal, or territorial (SLTT) grant recipient, you must use FEMA's web-based Grants Reporting Tool (GRT) to submit annual investment justifications and biannual progress reports for preparedness grants including HSGP, NSGP, THSGP, and EMPG. The tool is being extended without change so SLTT recipients continue using GRT to meet statutory reporting requirements (including the reporting and review duties in section 2022 of the Homeland Security Act of 2002).
