The funding supports the positions in OEM for chemical safety planing, training and exercise. The application covers two years, 2026 and 2027. The total federal funding requested is $589,983.00 with a required county match of $117,996.60 I've worked with Jenifer Oftelie to make sure we have proper information for salaries and benefits for the application, understating the some of the costs are estimated. We will also make sure we have the matching dollars budgeted as we go through the budget process. The application will be electronically submitted to DHSEM upon your approval at a BOCC meeting. This applica:ion dose not grantee us full funding. The funding is not from Homeland Security and is through PHMSA, it is understood that the current federal administration is reviewing all funding programs. The grant application deadline is approaching, and I feel it appropriate to submit the application. I would like to add this application to the BOCC agenda for approval What options exist for the Board? Consequences: Reduced grant funding will impact the OEM budget Impacts: the responsibility of the current work will not go away if the funding is not requested I believe this funding will continue. Costs (Current Fiscal Year / Ongoing or Subsequent Fiscal Years): funding is requested for two years Recommendation: I recommend the BOCC allow us to apply for the grant, this does not guarantee funding or the total amount of funding. I believe this is a good program and is worth seeking the grant. Support Recommendation Schedule Place on BOCC Agenda Work Session Other/Comments: Perry L. Buck Scott K. James Jason S.
