FEMA will consider subapplications for further review based on a four-part review:
- Eligibility and Completeness.
- National Technical Review (mitigation projects only).
- Technical Criteria.
- Qualitative Criteria.
FEMA may identify a subapplication for further review out of rank order based on considerations such as program priorities, available assistance and policy factors.
FEMA will notify applicants whose subapplications are identified for further review. However, this notification and the applicant’s compliance with FEMA-requested pre-award activities are not considered notification or guarantee of an award.
