FEMA BRIC eliminated - notice coming tomorrow

Apparently it was an AF1 decision, but it’s not a RIF and nothing is known about timelines.

HQ seems to think that there will be a mashup between HMGP and BRIC…there was a lot of discussion at NEMA this year about what this would look like but nothing concrete yet.

Great now in theory how to states with limited staff execute these block grants ? And even more limited staff when you go from State-County-City / Tribes. Locals are going to have to do much more work and honestly its hard to get them to do the request for information already

Block grants still need to comply with 2 C.F.R. 200, who is going to check that? The states you say? Super
