Public Assistance Grant Award Activities (EMMIE)

This record description is for the EMMIE portion of the unioned query required due to migration of Public Assistance (PA) Recovery records into the Fac-trax database. This dataset contains data on Public Assistance project awards (obligations), including the project obligation date(s); dollar amount of Federal Share Obligated for each project and its obligation date(s); FEMA region; state; disaster declaration number; descriptive cause of the declaration (incident type); entity requesting public assistance (applicant name); and distinct name for the repair, replacement or mitigation work listed for assistance (Project Title). The PA Grant Awards Activities dataset does not collect, maintain, use, or disseminate any Personally Identifiable Information (PII).rnrnAs part of Congressional bill HR 152 - the Sandy Recovery Improvement Act of 2013, FEMA is providing the following information for our stakeholders:rn• Regionrn• Disaster Declaration Numberrn• Disaster Typern• Statern• Applicantrn• Countyrn• Damage Category Codern• Federal Share Obligatedrn• Date ObligatedrnrnFEMA obligates funding for a project directly to the Recipient (State or Tribe). It is the Recipient's responsibility to ensure that the eligible subrecipient (listed in the dataset as Applicant Name) receives the award funding.rnThis dataset lists details about project versions. Versions occur when the scope/cost changes for a project.  Versions adjust the cost of the project  with positive additions called obligations and subtractions called deobligations.  Combined, they reconcile to reflect the Total Federal Share Obligation, but reconciliation occurs over the life of the project, sometimes years after the declaration date.  The dataset represents project obligations within a seven-day period prior to the listed date but does not include obligations uploaded on the same day as the publication.  Open projects still under pre-obligation processing are not represented.rnFor more information on the Public Assistance process see: https://www.fema.gov/assistance/public/process.rnThis is raw, unedited data from FEMA's Emergency Management Mission Integrated Environment (EMMIE) system and as such is subject to a small percentage of human error. The financial information is derived from EMMIE and not FEMA's official financial systems. Due to differences in reporting periods, status of obligations and application of business rules, this financial information may differ slightly from official publication on public websites such as usaspending.gov. This dataset is not intended to be used for any official federal reporting.rnIf you have media inquiries about this dataset, please email the FEMA News Desk at FEMA-News-Desk@fema.dhs.gov or call (202) 646-3272.

Public Assistance Funded Project Summaries

FEMA provides supplemental Federal disaster grant assistance for debris removal, emergency protective measures, and the repair, replacement, or restoration of disaster-damaged, publicly owned facilities and the facilities of certain Private Non-Profit (PNP) organizations through the Public Assistance (PA) Program (CDFA Number 97.036). The PA Program also encourages protection of these damaged facilities from future events by providing assistance for 406 hazard mitigation measures during the recovery process.rnThis dataset lists all public assistance applicants (subrecipients) and a summary of the funded program support.

Non-Disaster and Assistance to Firefighter Grants

The Grant Programs Directorate strategically and effectively administers and manages FEMA grants to ensure critical and measurable results for customers and stakeholders. The grants represented in this dataset are Preparedness (Non-Disaster or ND) Grants and Assistance to Firefighters Grants (AFG).rnrnND Grants and AFG are awarded and managed differently within the Grants Program Directorate (GPD) and should be treated with discretion.rnrnThe only measure in this dataset is Award Amount. It is an additive measure that can be applied across multiple dimensions to create various views of the data.rnrnAFG awards are assigned to individual Fire Departments. ND Grants are typically assigned to state agencies; however, exceptions do exist such as Port Security Grant Program which is assigned to port areas and not States. It is important to know that when looking at Award Amount by State it does not mean the State actually received that money. In addition, some grant programs may have pass-through requirements where the recipient State is required to sub-grant a minimum amount of the award and only retain a portion of the award.rnrnGrants guidance is described in the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). Each grant program has its own grant guidance containing eligibility requirements, program objectives, and funding restrictions which are published annually. FOAs are public documents and may be found online at www.fema.gov/grants.rnrnFor more information on grants, visit https://www.fema.gov/grants/preparedness and https://www.fema.gov/grants/preparedness/firefighters rnrnIf you have media inquiries about this dataset, please email the FEMA News Desk at FEMA-News-Desk@dhs.gov or call (202) 646-3272.

Public Assistance Applicants Program Deliveries

FEMA's new Public Assistance (PA) case management system called the FEMA Applicant Case Tracker (FAC-Trax) includes the Grants Manager database and Grant Portal tool (collectively ‘Grants Manager’). rn FAC-Trax was developed in 2016 and became the processing system for all new PA grants starting on August  25, 2017. Grants Manager became a new database to document PA projects from formulation to a seamless transition to grant obligation and close-out with grant formulation being a new process not previously captured.rnThe previous database, the Emergency Management Mission Integration Environment (EMMIE) currently functions as the system for obligations with a few declarations now obligated in Grants Manager as test cases. All remaining EMMIE functions are scheduled to move to Grants Manager soon as well as the records for EMMIE and the previous database, the National Emergency Management Information System (NEMIS). rnThe 'Public Assistance Applicants Program Deliveries' dataset was generated from Grants Manager by the PA reporting team to share data on assistance made available to eligible state, local and tribal governments, and certain private nonprofit organizations as part of presidentially declared disasters. This dataset reports on the PA National Delivery Model process with summaries of projects and project statuses for all active applicants (subrecipients). The data reflects time sensitive, current phase information including pre-obligation (project formulation) phases starting in phase 2 to obligation in phase 5.rnIf you have media inquiries about this dataset, please email the FEMA News Desk at FEMA-News-Desk@fema.dhs.gov or call (202) 646-3272.

2024 Cartographic Boundary File (SHP), Unified School District for Florida, 1:500,000

The 2024 cartographic boundary shapefiles are simplified representations of selected geographic areas from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). These boundary files are specifically designed for small-scale thematic mapping. When possible, generalization is performed with the intent to maintain the hierarchical relationships among geographies and to maintain the alignment of geographies within a file set for a given year. Geographic areas may not align with the same areas from another year. Some geographies are available as nation-based files while others are available only as state-based files.

School Districts are single-purpose administrative units within which local officials provide public educational services for the area's residents. The Census Bureau obtains the boundaries, names, local education agency codes, grade ranges, and school district levels for school districts from state officials for the primary purpose of providing the U.S. Department of Education with estimates of the number of children in poverty within each school district. This information serves as the basis for the Department of Education to determine the annual allocation of Title I funding to states and school districts.

The cartographic boundary files include separate files for elementary, secondary and unified school districts. The generalized school district boundaries in this file are based on those in effect for the 2023-2024 school year, i.e., in operation as of January 1, 2024.

2024 Cartographic Boundary File (SHP), State Legislative District (SLD) Upper Chamber for Louisiana, 1:500,000

The 2024 cartographic boundary shapefiles are simplified representations of selected geographic areas from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). These boundary files are specifically designed for small-scale thematic mapping. When possible, generalization is performed with the intent to maintain the hierarchical relationships among geographies and to maintain the alignment of geographies within a file set for a given year. Geographic areas may not align with the same areas from another year. Some geographies are available as nation-based files while others are available only as state-based files.

State Legislative Districts (SLDs) are the areas from which members are elected to state legislatures. The SLDs embody the upper (senate) and lower (house) chambers of the state legislature. Nebraska has a unicameral legislature and the District of Columbia has a single council, both of which the Census Bureau treats as upper-chamber legislative areas for the purpose of data presentation; there are no data by SLDL for either Nebraska or the District of Columbia. A unique three-character census code, identified by state participants, is assigned to each SLD within a state. In Connecticut, Illinois, Louisiana, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, and Puerto Rico, the Redistricting Data Program (RDP) participant did not define the SLDs to cover all of the state or state equivalent area. In these areas with no SLDs defined, the code "ZZZ" has been assigned, which is treated as a single SLD for purposes of data presentation.

The generarlized boundaries in this file are based on the most recent state legislative district boundaries collected by the Census Bureau for the 2024 election year and provided by state-level participants through the RDP.
