The Robert T.

FEMA gives notice that $1,062,900 is the threshold for any Small Project subgrant made to State, Tribal, and local governments or to the owner or operator of an eligible private nonprofit facility under section 422 of the Stafford Act for all major disasters or emergencies declared on or after October 1, 2024.
FEMA bases the adjustment on an increase in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers of 2.5 percent for the 12-month period that ended in August 2024. This is based on information released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics at the U.S. Department of Labor on September 11, 2024.
