Fiscal Year 2016 Transit Security Grant Program (TSGP)

archived

The FY 2016 TSGP is one of DHS/FEMA's FY 2016 grant programs that directly support transportation infrastructure security activities. TSGP is one tool in the comprehensive set of measures authorized by Congress and implemented by the Administration to strengthen the Nation's critical infrastructure against risks associated with potential terrorist attacks. The TSGP provides funds to eligible publicly owned operators of public transportation systems (which include intra-city bus, commuter bus, ferries, and all forms of passenger rail) to protect critical surface transportation infrastructure and the traveling public from acts of terrorism and to increase the resilience of transit infrastructure. The TSGP supports the Quadrennial Homeland Security Review Mission to Strengthen National Preparedness and Resilience.
