EMPG Resource Documents
Montana DES has developed a record of valuable Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) program resources designed to help sub-recipients manage their awarded grant program. It is strongly encouraged that all sub-recipients read through the EMPG State Program Guidance as it contains important information covering areas such as but not limited to: EMPG program overview, grant requirements, unallowable costs, status reports, reimbursement requests, deadlines, grant amendments, and closeout. In addition to the State Program Guidance there are several form templates made available to sub-recipients to utilize as needed.
Below you will find the provided EMPG program resources associated with its corresponding grant year. Sub-recipients should contact their District Grant Coordinator, District Field Officer (DFO), or District Supervisor with questions regarding any of the following resources made available.
