**Fire Management Assistance Grant Program & Policy Guide**

Apply for Assistance



Declaration Process



The Fire Management Assistance declaration process is initiated when a state submits a request for assistance to the FEMA Regional Director at the time a "threat of major disaster" exists. The entire process is accomplished on an expedited basis and a FEMA decision is rendered in a matter of hours.



Before a grant can be awarded, a state must demonstrate that total eligible costs for the declared fire meet or exceed either the individual fire cost threshold -- which is applied to single fires, or the cumulative fire cost threshold, which recognizes numerous smaller fires burning throughout a state.



alert - infoLearn more in the declaration process fact sheet.
