Description
The
Cooperating Technical Partners Program (CTP Program) exists to strengthen and
increase the effectiveness of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)
through fostering strong Federal, State, Tribal, regional and local partnerships
for the purposes of reducing flood losses and promoting community resiliency.
The CTP Program may provide federal assistance, through a grant or cooperative
agreement, to an eligible Cooperating Technical Partner (herein referred to as
"CTP", "partner" or "grantee") to perform various projects and activities that
stimulate and support the ability of NFIP State Coordinating Agencies and
NFIP-participating communities (as defined in 44 CFR Part 59.1) to continue
their ongoing regulatory NFIP responsibilities as well as support the ability
of States, communities and the public and private sector to mitigate flood
risk. The CTP Program seeks to enhance the existing capabilities of CTPs to
increase local involvement in, and ownership of, the development and
maintenance of flood risk data and products, such as the Flood Insurance Rate
Maps (FIRMs) and other risk related products, as well as other support to
advance the goals and objectives of the Risk Mapping Assessment and Planning
(Risk MAP) program.
