Additional Planning Information
The National Preparedness Directorate (NPD) offers technical assistance (TA) that is designed to
provide grantees and sub -grantees with specialized expertise to improve their emergency plans
and planning. TA deliveries are designed specifically to improve and enhance the continuing
development of state and local emergency management across the five mission areas of the
National Preparedness Goal and across all core capabilities, TA provides the opportunity to
engage emergency managers, emergency planners, and appropriate decision -makers in open
discussion of options to improve plans and planning in light of their jurisdiction's needs. There is
no cost to approved jurisdictions for FEMA TA.
TA deliveries combine current emergency management best practices with practical
consideration of emerging trends, through -discussion facilitated-by-F-E-MA-contract-specialists-and
with the support of FEMA Region operational specialist. While the invitation of participants is up
to the requesting jurisdiction, FEMA encourages requesting jurisdictions to include the broadest
practical range of its emergency managers and planners in all TA deliveries. TA deliveries should
be made open to neighboring jurisdictions. As necessary, FEMA may also invite other Federal
experts and practitioners to participate. Additionally, peer -to -peer representation may also be
included from other jurisdictions that have recently used TA for the same planning issue.
The TA catalog, showing the full range of TA available across all five mission areas and by all
providers, and the TA request form can be accessed at http://www.fema.gov/national-incident-

Exercise Requirements
Training and Exercise Plan Workshop. States and Urban Areas are required to conduct an
annual Training and Exercise Plan Workshop (TEPW). A Multi -year Training and Exercise
Plan must be developed from the workshops on an annual basis and submitted to the States
respective Exercise Program point of contact. The State Exercise Program point of contact
should submit a copy of the State and Urban Area plans to hseep al2dhs.gov.
39
The Training and Exercise Plan will include the State's program priorities and a Multi -Year
Training and Exercise Plan (schedule) that supports the identified priorities and aligned
capabilities. In addition to submission of the Multi -Year Training and Exercise Plan to
hseep(dhs.gov, all scheduled training and exercises should be entered into the HSEEP
National Exercise Scheduling (NEXUS) System, located in the HSEEP Toolkit on the HSEEP
website https://hseep.dhs.gov.
States must complete a cycle of progressive exercise activities during the period of this grant.
Exercises conducted by States and Urban Areas may be used to fulfill similar exercise
requirements required by other grant programs. For example, HHS preparedness programs
require joint exercises between public health departments, the health care sector and medical
countermeasure authorities including law enforcement which could provide collaborative
opportunities. To this end, grantees are encouraged to invite representatives/planners
involved with other federally -mandated or private exercise activities. States and Urban Areas
are encouraged to share, at a minimum, the multi -year training and exercise schedule with
those departments, agencies, and organizations included in the plan.
► Exercise Scenarios. The scenarios used in HSGP-funded exercises must be based
on the State/Urban Area's THIRA. The scenarios used in HSGP-funded exercises
must -focus -on testing capabilities, must -be -large -enough -in -scope and size to
exercise multiple activities and warrant involvement from multiple disciplines and/or
jurisdictions and non -governmental organizations, and take into account the needs
and requirements for individuals with disabilities. Exercise scenarios should align with
priorities and capabilities identified in the Multi -year Training and Exercise Plan.
• Special Event Planning. If a State or Urban Area will be hosting a special event
(e.g., Super Bowl, G-8 Summit) the special event planning should be considered as a
training or exercise activity for the purpose of the Multi -year Training and Exercise
Plan. The State or Urban Area should plan to use SHSP or UASI funding to finance
training and exercise activities in preparation for those events. States and Urban
Areas should also consider exercises at major venues (e.g., arenas, convention
centers) that focus on evacuations, communications, and command and control.
States should also anticipate participating in at least one Regional Exercise annually.
States must include all confirmed or planned special events in the Multi -year Training
and Exercise Plan.
Exercise Evaluation and Improvement. Exercises should evaluate performance of
the objectives and capabilities required to respond to the exercise scenario.
Guidance related to exercise evaluation and improvement planning is defined in the
HSEEP located at https://hssep.dhs.gov.
• Self -Sustaining Exercise Programs. States are expected to develop a self-
sustaining exercise program. A self-sustaining exercise program is one that is
successfully able to implement, maintain, and oversee the Multi -Year Training and
Exercise Plan, including the development and delivery of HSGP-funded exercises.
The program must utilize a multi -disciplinary approach to the development and
delivery of exercises, and build upon existing plans, training, and equipment.
Role of Non -Governmental Entities in Exercises. Non -governmental participation
in all levels of exercises is strongly encouraged. Leaders from nongovernmental
entities should be included in'the planning, conduct, and evaluation of an exercise.
State, local, tribal, and territorial jurisdictions are encouraged to develop exercises
that test the integration and use of non -governmental resources provided by non-
governmental entities, defined as the private sector and private non-profit, faith-
40
based, community, disability, volunteer, and other non -governmental organizations.
Non -governmental participation in exercises should be coordinated with the local
Citizen Corps Council(s) or their equivalent and other partner agencies. The
scenarios used in HSGP-funded exercises must focus on validating existing
capabilities, must comply with and be large enough in scope and size to exercise
multiple activities and warrant involvement from multiple jurisdictions and disciplines
and non -governmental organizations, and take into account the needs and
requirements for individuals with disabilities.

Florida Division of Emergency Management
US Department of Homeland Security Grants Program
Grant Monitoring Process
Florida has enhanced state and local capability and capacity to prevent, prepare and respond to
terrorist threats since 1999 through various funding sources including federal grant funds. The
Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) has a responsibility to track and monitor the
status of grant activity and items purchased to ensure compliance with applicable SHSGP grant
guidance and statutory regulations. The monitoring process is designed to assess a recipient
agency's compliance with applicable state and federal guidelines.
Monitoring is accom Ip ish_ed utilizing various methods including desk monitoring and on -site visits
There are two primary areas reviewed during monitoring activities - financial and programmatic
monitoring. Financial monitoring is the review of records associated with the purchase and
disposition of property, projects and contracts. Programmatic monitoring is the observation of
equipment purchased, protocols and other associated records. Various levels of financial and
programmatic review may be accomplished during this process.
Desk monitoring is the review of projects, financial activity and technical assistance between FDEM
and the applicant via e-mail and telephone. On -Site Monitoring are actual visits to the recipient
agencies by a Division representative who examines records, procedures and equipment.
Frequency of annual monitoring activity:
Each year the FDEM will conduct monitoring for up to 50% of their sub -grantees. It is important to
note that although a given grant has been closed, it is still subject to either desk or on -site
monitoring for a five year period following closure.
Areas that will be examined include:
Management and administrative procedures;
Grant folder maintenance;
Equipment accountability and sub -hand receipt procedures;
Program for obsolescence;
Status of equipment purchases;
Status of training for purchased equipment;
Status and number of response trainings conducted to include number trained;
61
Status and number of exercises;
Status of planning activity;
Anticipated projected completion;
Difficulties encountered in completing projects;
Agency NIMS/ICS compliance documentation;
Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO Status);
Procurement Policy
FDEM may request additional monitoring/information if the activity, or lack there of, generates
questions from the region, the sponsoring agency or FDEM leadership. The method of gathering
this information will be determined on a case -by -case basis.
Desk -monitoring -is— an-on=going-process. Recipients -will -be -required -to -participate -in -desk top
monitoring on an annual basis and as determined by the FDEM, This contact will provide an
opportunity to identify the need for technical assistance (TA) and/or a site visit if the FDEM
determines that a recipient is having difficulty completing their project.
As difficulties/deficiencies are identified, the respective region or sponsoring agency will be notified
by the program office via email. Information will include the grant recipient agency name, year and
project description and the nature of the issue in question. Many of the issues that arise may be
resolved at the regional or sponsoring agency level. Issues that require further TA will be referred
to the FDEM for assistance. Examples of TA include but are not limited to:
*Equipment selection or available vendors
*Eligibility of items or services
-Coordination and partnership with other agencies within or outside the region or discipline
Record Keeping
*Reporting Requirements
Documentation in support of a Request for Reimbursement
On -Site Monitoring will be conducted by the FDEM or designated personnel. On -site Monitoring
visits will be scheduled in advance with the recipient agency POC designated in the grant
agreement.
62
The FDEM will also conduct coordinated financial and grant file monitoring. These monitoring visits
will be coordinated with the capability review visits. Subject matter experts from other agencies
within the region or state may be called upon to assist in the form of a peer review as needed.
All findings related to the capability review will be documented and maintained within the FDEM.
On -site Monitoring Protocol
On --site Monitoring Visits will begin with those grantees that are currently spending or have
completed spending for that federal fiscal year (FFY). Site visits may be combined when
geographically convenient. There is a financial and programmatic on -site monitoring checklist to
assist in the completion of all required tasks.
Site Visit Preparation
A letter will be sent to the recipient agency Point of Contact (POC) outlining the date, time and
purpose of the site visit before the planned arrival date.
The appointment should be confirmed with the grantee in writing (email is acceptable) and
documented in the grantee folder.
The physical location of any equipment located at an alternate site should be confirmed with a
representative from that location and the address should be documented in the grantee folder
before the site visit.
On -Site Monitoring Visit
Once FDEM personnel have arrived at the site, an orientation conference will be conducted.
During this time, the purpose of the site visit and the items FDEM intends to examine will be
identified. If financial monitoring visit will be conducted, they will then explain their objectives and
will proceed to perform the financial review.
FDEM personnel will review all files and supporting documentation. Once the supporting
documentation has been reviewed, a tour/visual/spot inspection of equipment will be conducted,
Each item should be visually inspected whenever possible, Bigger items (computers, response
vehicles, etc.) should have an asset decal (information/serial number) placed in a prominent
location on each piece of equipment as per recipient agency requirements. The serial number
63
should correspond with the appropriate receipt to confirm purchase. Photographs should be taken
of the equipment (large capitol expenditures in excess of $1,000. per item).
If an item is not available (being used during time of the site visit), the appropriate documentation
must be provided to account for that particular piece of equipment. Once the tour/visual/spot
inspection of equipment has been completed, the FDEM personnel will then conduct an exit
conference with the grantee to review the findings.
Other programmatic issues can be discussed at this time, such as missing quarterly reports,
payment voucher/reimbursement, equipment, questions, etc.
Post Monitoring Visit
FDEM personnel will review the on -site monitoring review worksheets -and backup doeumentation
as a team and discuss the events of the on -site monitoring.
Within 30 calendar days of the site visit, a monitoring report will be generated and sent to the
grantee explaining any issues and corrective actions required or recommendations. Should no
issues or findings be identified, a monitoring report to that effect will be generated and sent to the
grantee. The grantee will submit a Corrective Action Plan within a timeframe as determined by the
FDEM. Noncompliance on behalf of sub -grantees is resolved by management under the terms of
the Sub grant Agreement.
The On -Site Monitoring Worksheets, the monitoring report and all back up documentation will then
be included in the grantee's file.
