IDENTIFYING AND ASSESSING RISK AND ESTIMATING CAPABILITY <br />REQUIREMENTS <br />HSGP: By Dec. 31 each year, states, territories, and high-risk urban area HSGP recipients are <br />required to complete an SPR that addresses all 32 core capabilities and is compliant with CPG 201, <br />Third Edition. Additionally, every three years recipients are required to complete a THIRA. In 2020, <br />jurisdictions began the requirement to respond to a series of planning-related questions as part of <br />the THIRA/SPR. <br />THSGP: THSGP recipients are required to complete a THIRA every three years. Tribes with open <br />THSGP awards must update their SPR inputs and Secondary Assessments (described in Section <br />8.2.4 “Planning to Deliver Capabilities” and Section 8.2.3 "National Incident Management System <br />Implementation”) for activities completed in each respective calendar year (CY) throughout the POP, <br />starting the CY after funding is awarded. <br />New THSGP recipients are required to complete the THIRA, SPR, and Secondary Assessments by <br />Dec. 31 of the year following award issuance. New THSGP recipients are recipients that have not <br />received THSGP funding in the past three years. The THIRA/SPR must address all 32 core <br />capabilities and be compliant with the CPG 201, Third Edition. When applying for THSGP funding, <br />tribes that were awarded THSGP funding during the previous two years are expected to prioritize and <br />align grant funding investments in building and sustaining capabilities as identified in their THIRA <br />and SPR. <br />For additional guidance on the THIRA/SPR, please refer to CPG 201, Third Edition. <br />Reporting <br />.States, tribes (with the exception of new THSGP recipients as noted above), and territories will <br />submit their THIRA and SPR through the URT on the Preparedness Toolkit no later than Dec. 31 <br />of the applicable year (every three years for THIRA and each year for SPR) for which the recipient <br />has an open award. <br />o If a THSGP recipient has completed closeout for their THSGP grant award POP, they do not <br />have to submit the THIRA/SPR as the requirement does not apply to closed awards. <br />. <br />. <br />High-risk urban areas that receive UASI funding will submit their SPR through the URT on <br />Preparedness Toolkit no later than Dec. 31 for the years they have UASI open grants. If a UASI <br />recipient has completed closeout for their UASI grant award POP, they do not have to submit a <br />THIRA/SPR as the requirement is not applicable to closed grant awards. While UASIs that have <br />completed closeout for the award POP are not required to complete a THIRA/SPR, it is <br />encouraged. <br />Calendar year 2022 was the start of the new 3-year THIRA/SPR cycle and baseline assessment <br />year for existing recipients. Any new grant recipients for which the THIRA/SPR requirement <br />applies will start their new 3-year THIRA/SPR cycle and baseline assessment year in the year <br />during which they apply.
