Hazardous Materials Preparedness Grant Program Hazardous Materials Preparedness Grant Program The Hazardous Materials Preparedness (HMEP) Grant Program distributes fees collected from shippers and carriers of hazardous materials and distributes money for local hazardous materials planning and training. KDEM is responsible for administering the HMEP grant program for Kansas.
The focus of the HMEP program is to provide financial and technical assistance as well as national direction and guidance to enhance State, Territorial, Tribal, and local hazardous materials emergency planning and training. Local Emergency Planning Committees (LEPC) are eligible for submitting proposals for HMEP grant funds.
Since the funding is limited, in order to better serve the communities of Kansas, projects that reflect regionalized planning and training elements receive priority. This change of focus reflects a shift in the Federal level funding towards regional based funding. While it is not a requirement of HMEP funding at this time, KDEM encourages participation in regionalization efforts.

Read articleHouse leadership canceled the September 21 and September 28 session weeks on September 3, leaving four legislative days before members leave until after the November 3 midterms. Three separate deadlines — the continuing resolution, the surface transportation extension, and the statutory freeze on OMB's grant-rule rewrite — now expire on the same day, with a lame-duck Congress and a handful of weeks to resolve them. Here is what that means for anyone holding or chasing a federal award.
Read articleCummings Foundation grew its annual local program from $30 million to $35 million for 2026 awards, but the dollar increase is the smaller story. Nearly every grant now flows as unrestricted general operating support — the funding nonprofits ask for most and receive least. For eligible Massachusetts organizations, the 2027 cycle opens July 15 with a September 16 letter-of-inquiry deadline.
