The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) uses the Special Considerations Questionnaire to identify potential environmental, historical, hazard mitigation, and insurance concerns for Public Assistance grant projects.
What is the Questionnaire?
This form consists of nine questions designed to assess if your project requires special considerations in these areas. By answering these questions, you help FEMA determine any potential compliance needs.
What does the Questionnaire cover?
The nine questions delve into various aspects of your project, including:
How do I answer the Questionnaire?
Each question allows for a simple "Yes," "No," or "Unsure" response. It's crucial to elaborate with comments, especially for "Yes" or "Unsure" answers. This clarifies your response and helps FEMA understand your project's specifics.
Why is the Questionnaire important?
Completing this questionnaire is vital as it helps FEMA identify potential issues early on. An "Unsure" response indicates you might need further guidance or investigation regarding a specific consideration.
What happens after I submit the Questionnaire?
Based on your answers, FEMA may request additional documentation to ensure your project complies with all special considerations. This could involve environmental studies, historic preservation plans, or mitigation strategies.
By working collaboratively with FEMA through this questionnaire, you can ensure a smooth grant application process and address any potential concerns upfront.
