FEMA Advisory

FEMA Public Assistance COVID-19 Programmatic Project Submission Deadline: December 31, 2022

Please find attached FEMA Advisory:  FEMA Public Assistance COVID-19 Programmatic Project Submission Deadline – December 31, 2022. FEMA’s Advisory reiterates the following points concerning COVID-19 Programmatic Project Submission Deadlines:

FEMA established December 31, 2022, as the deadline for applicants to submit funding requests to the Public Assistance (PA) program at the 100 percent Federal Cost Share for COVID-19 work activities performed through July 1, 2022. Applicants must submit their Project Application by December 31, 2022, or request a time extension.

If the applicant does not submit their Project Applications by December 31, 2022, or request a time extension, those costs would not be reimbursed.


FEMA Regional Administrators may extend the Project Application submittal deadline up to 90 days after December 31, 2022, when the request is justified based on extenuating circumstances beyond the recipient’s or applicant’s control.

Recipients and applicants should notify FEMA as soon as possible if they plan to submit a time extension for the December 31, 2022, project submission deadline for work performed through 11:59 p.m. on July 1, 2022.

Applicants must submit separate Project Applications to FEMA for work performed on or after July  2, 2022. The deadline for identifying and reporting COVID-19 emergency work activities for work to be performed on or after July 2, 2022, will remain open until further notice. FEMA will notify applicants no less than 30 days prior to establishing such deadline.

Furthermore, please be advised FEMA confirmed December 31, 2022, is the final deadline date for Project Submissions and not the following business day.

Respectfully,

Recovery
