Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 18 GPD 075 00 02
The Fiscal Year 2018 Transit Security Grant Program (TSGP) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA to help strengthen security across public transportation systems. The program focuses on protecting critical transit infrastructure and the traveling public from acts of terrorism, while also improving the overall resilience of transit assets and operations. In practical terms, the grant is meant to support risk-reduction and preparedness activities for systems such as intra-city bus networks, ferries, and all forms of passenger rail, recognizing that transit environments are high-traffic, open-access settings that can be difficult to secure without targeted investments.
This opportunity is identified as DHS 18 GPD 075 00 02 and is cataloged under CFDA number 97.075. It is structured as a grant (not a contract) and falls under a general funding activity category labeled as "Other," reflecting that it supports a mix of security-related capabilities rather than a single narrow program area. While the listing notes "Others" for eligible applicants, eligibility is centered on public transportation systems that meet the program requirements described in the full guidance. The intent is to direct federal support to transit agencies and related eligible entities responsible for operating or securing public transit services and associated infrastructure.
The funding notice was created on May 21, 2018, with an original application closing date of June 20, 2018, setting a roughly one-month window for applicants to prepare and submit proposals. FEMA anticipated making about 75 awards under this solicitation. The public listing shows an award ceiling of 0, which typically indicates the ceiling was not specified in the summary record or was determined by other program criteria in the full notice, rather than implying that awards would be zero-dollar. Overall, the FY2018 TSGP is designed to provide targeted federal assistance so transit operators can enhance terrorism prevention and protection efforts and build stronger, more resilient transit systems.Apply for DHS 18 GPD 075 00 02
