FY 2012 PSGP Priorities

Enhancing Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA)

Port areas should seek to enhance MDA through projects that address knowledge capabilities within the maritime domain

Projects should reflect a regionalized approach and coordinated effort among public and private sector organizations

MDA efforts could include access control/standardized credentialing, communications, enhanced intelligence sharing and analysis, construction and/or enhancement of Interagency Operations Centers, etc.

Enhancing Improvised Explosive Device (IED) and Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosive (CBRNE) prevention, protection, response, and recovery capabilities

Port areas should continue to enhance their capabilities to prevent, detect, respond to, and recover from attacks employing IEDs, CBRNE devices, and other nonconventional weapons

IEDs delivered via small craft, underwater swimmers, or on ferries are of particular concern

21

Page 22: FEMA GRANT PROGRAMS DIRECTORATE Preparedness Grant Programs Los Angeles, CA June 14, 2012 State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) Urban Area Security Initiative

FY 2012 PSGP Priorities

Port Resilience and Recovery Capabilities

Ensuring resilience to disasters is one of the core DHS missions

PSGP funds are intended to enable continuity of operations and/or rapid recovery of the port in the event of a disaster

Ports that have not already done so are encouraged to develop a Business Continuity/Resumption of Trade Plan

Training and Exercises

Exercises must follow the Area Maritime Security Training Exercise Program (AMSTEP) or the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Intermodal Security Training Exercise Program (I-STEP) guidelines

Equipment Associated with Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) Implementation

Infrastructure and installation projects that support TWIC implementation will be given a higher

22

Page 23: FEMA GRANT PROGRAMS DIRECTORATE Preparedness Grant Programs Los Angeles, CA June 14, 2012 State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) Urban Area Security Initiative

PSGP Partners

FEMA designs and operates the administrative mechanisms to implement and manage the PSGP. The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) provides programmatic subject matter expertise for the maritime industry; coordinates intelligence information and risk/vulnerability assessments to rank and rate critical infrastructure and key resources nationwide; and defines parameters for identifying, protecting, deterring, responding, and recovering from terrorist attacks

23

Page 24: FEMA GRANT PROGRAMS DIRECTORATE Preparedness Grant Programs Los Angeles, CA June 14, 2012 State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) Urban Area Security Initiative

PSGP Review Process

PSGP has competitive and non-competitive, as well as local and Federal components to its three review processes

1. Initial Review: FEMA conducts an initial review of all PSGP applications for completion. Applications passing this review are grouped by port area and provided to the applicable Captain of the Port (COTP) for further review

2. Field Review: Field-level reviews are managed by the COTP in coordination with Maritime Administration (MARAD) and Area Maritime Security Committees (AMSC). Field Reviewers may be Federal, State, and local personnel who advise the COTP as local area subject matter experts; they complete Field Review Forms for each project with scores, prioritization, and supporting comments/justification

3. National Review: The National Review Panel (NRP) convenes to review each project and develop a final list of recommend funding. The NRP consists of Federal representatives from FEMA, USCG, MARAD, Transportation Security Administration (TSA), Customs and Border Patrol (CBP), Domestic Nuclear Detection Office (DNDO), and Buffer Zone Protection Program (BZPP). A risk-based algorithm is applied to the NRP’s validated, prioritized list for each port area in all groups
