Additional Information of Eligibility:
Consistent with the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (“HSA”) (Pub.

L.

107-296), as amended by section 2(a)(10) of the Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Act of 2018 (Pub.

The STC eligibility requirement is based on Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) eligibility; however, CWMD has added the Stabilization Team proximity to the eligibility requirements as a way to synchronize with the FBI in critical areas of the country by leveraging partnerships and unique capabilities that the FBI has established in these regions.

Proximity with the regions supported by Level 5 Stabilization Teams also allows the STC Program to better protect population centers by shifting focus from the adversary’s potential targets to include the threat pathways into and within the region and the United States.

In FY19 STC is expanding to all of the following eligible UASI/STAB 5 regions that were not previous recipients under the STC Program: Phoenix, AZ; San Francisco, CA; Denver, CO; Miami, FL; Atlanta, GA; Seattle, WA.

Each STC Program UASI recipient will choose its lead agency (applicant) and submit only one application for its region, which will encompass the UASI as well as its regional partners.

The following entities within eligible Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) areas may apply directly to DHS under this solicitation: o State government(s) (non-operational) o City or township governments o County governments o Others (see below for clarification) The applicant is termed the lead agency (applicant).
