The HSGP is a primary funding mechanism for building and sustaining national preparedness capabilities. The HSGP is comprised of three separate grant programs: the State Homeland Security Program (SHSP), the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI), and Operation Stonegarden (OPSG). Together, these grants fund a range of preparedness activities, including planning, organization, equipment purchase, training, exercises, and management and administration costs. The OPSG will begin to utilize the PO 00000 Frm 00056 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Office of Management and Budget’s web-based portal MAX.GOV, at https:// www.MAX.GOV/, for operational management of the grant program.

Estimated Cost: The estimated annual cost to respondents for the hour burden is $19,096,265. There are no annual costs to respondents’ operations and maintenance costs for technical services. There are no annual start-up or capital costs. The cost to the Federal Government is $2,022,270. Dated: February 10, 2016. Richard W.
