Paper applications will be accepted
but discouraged due to the inherent
delays with processing them and
because they lack the applicant ‘‘help’’
features that are built into the electronic

Applicants will be instructed not to use
any paper application that they did not
receive directly from the AFG and will
be instructed not to use a previous
year’s application. Paper applications
must be postmarked no later than July
6, 2012, and mailed to the following
address: Cabezon Group, Attn: AFG
Program, 11821 Parklawn Drive, Suite

inform applicants that it will not be
responsible for applications sent to any
other address and that late, incomplete,
or faxed applications will NOT be
accepted.
Appropriations
Congress appropriated $337,500,000
for the FY 2012 AFG. From this amount,
$285,625,000 will be made available for
AFG awards. Funds appropriated for the
FY 2012 AFG (pursuant to Pub. L. 112–
10) will be available for obligation and
award until September 30, 2013. FEMA
will receive approximately 15,000 to
20,000 applications for assistance and
anticipates that it will award
approximately 4,000 grants with the
grant funding available.
Congress directed the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) to administer
the appropriations:
• Up to 5 percent of funds may be
used for program administration.
• Up to 2 percent of funds may be
used for awards to nonaffiliated EMS
organizations.
• No more than 25 percent of funds
may be used for vehicle awards.
• No less than 5 percent of funds
must be made available to make grants
supporting eligible fire prevention
activities and research and development
activities that improve firefighter safety
through the Fire Prevention and Safety
(FP&S) Grants. However, due to the
importance of mitigation activities, the
FY 2012 FP&S will be allocated $35
million for grants. The FP&S Grants are
not part of this AFG solicitation. The
FP&S Grant application period is
projected for the fall or winter of 2012.
Background of the AFG Program
DHS awards the grants on a
competitive basis to the applicants that
best address the AFG Program’s
priorities and provide the most
compelling justification. Applications
that best address the Program’s
priorities will be reviewed by a panel
composed of fire service personnel.
Award Criteria
The panel will review the application
and evaluate it using the following
criteria:
• Proposed project and the project
