Description
The Maine Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) maintains this resource page to help grant recipients understand environmental planning and historic preservation (EHP) review. It is not a separate grant opportunity. The page links to FEMA’s screening form, a review-packet overview, project classifications, frequently asked questions, and presentations on the review process and relevant laws.
EHP review examines a proposed project’s potential effects on environmental and historic resources before implementation. The documentation needed depends on the work and its location. Projects involving installation, construction, ground disturbance, or field-based training may need review; classroom-only training and purchases limited to mobile or portable equipment do not require the screening form.
