COOPERATING TECHNICAL PARTNERS
PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
AGREEMENT is made on October 24, 2005, by these parties: the City of Pearland, Texas, and
the Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA).
BECAUSE the National Flood Insurance Program(NFIP) established by the National Flood
Insurance Act of 1968 has several purposes, the most significant being
• To better indemnify individuals from losses through the availability of flood insurance;
• To reduce future flood damages through community floodplain management regulations; and
• To reduce costs for disaster assistance and flood control;
BECAUSE a critical component of the NFIP is the identification and mapping of the nation's
floodplains to create a broad-based awareness of flood hazards and to provide the data necessary
for community floodplain management programs and to actuarially rate flood insurance;
BECAUSE FEMA administers the NFIP and is authorized by §1360 of the National Flood
Insurance Act of 1968, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4101), to establish and update flood-risk zone
data in floodplain areas;
BECAUSE, in the identification of floodprone areas, FEMA is authorized to consult with, receive
information from, and enter into agreements or other arrangements with the head of any State,
regional, or local agency;
BECAUSE FEMA encourages strong Federal, State, regional, and local partnerships for the
purposes of reducing flood losses and disaster assistance;FEMA and its State, regional, and local
partners have determined that it is advantageous to encourage and formalize greater cooperation
in the flood hazard identification and mapping processes; and many communities and the agencies
that serve them have developed considerable technical capabilities and resources that provide the
opportunity to improve and expand the collection, development, and evaluation of flood hazard
data; and
BECAUSE the City of Pearland participates in the NFIP (or shares flood protection and/or
floodplain management responsibilities with communities that participate in the 1VFIP), the City
of Pearland has been deemed by FEMA to be in good standing in the NFIP; and
BECAUSE the City of Pearland has expressed a desire to perform certain functions in the flood
hazard identification process and has provided evidence that it has sufficient technical capability
and will dedicate the resources necessary to perform those functions.
CTP Partnership Agreement 1 October 2005

Draft Guidance Document
Fiscal Year 2005
(Please check the FEMA website at http://www.fcma.gov/{lu»/ctp tuid.shthn for updated versions of this document)
There are several beneficial reasons for partnering with State,local, and regional organizations to
produce National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)maps:
o The data used for local permitting and planning will also be the basis for the NFIP map,
facilitating more efficient floodplain management.
o The CTP Program provides the opportunity to interject a tailored,local focus into a
national program; thus,where unique conditions may exist the special approaches to
flood hazard identification that may be necessary can be taken.
o The partnership mechanism provides the opportunity to pool resources and extend the
productivity of limited public funds.
o For participating in the CTP Program, community Partners will receive Community
Rating System credits,which may lead to discounted flood insurance premiums for
property owners. (Additional information on the Community Rating System is available
on the FEMA website athttp:www.fenia.gov:nfip/crs.shtm.
In support of the CTP Program, FEMA has committed to the following:
o Recognize the contributions made by FEMA's State,regional, and local Partners by
providing timely and accurate flood hazard information.
o Maximize the use of Partners' contributions as a means of leveraging limited public
funds to the fullest extent while maintaining essential NFIP standards.
o Fully integrate Partners into the flood hazard data development process with the
corresponding authorities and responsibilities.
o Provide training and technical assistance to the Partners when appropriate.
o Facilitate mentoring to increase capability for both existing and Potential Patlners.

Administration
FEMA and its Partners will administer activities under the CTP Program through close and
frequent coordination. There are four formal agreements involved—Partnership Agreements,
Mapping Activity Statements, Letter of Map Change(LOMC) Mapping Activity Statement
and Cooperative Agreements.
Each Partner will enter into a Partnership Agreement with the appropriate FEMA Regional
Office. The Partnership Agreement is a broad statement of principle, emphasizing the value of
the NFIP's three components of insurance, floodplain management, and mapping.
The Partnership Agreement recognizes the fundamental importance of flood hazard identification
•
in the successful reduction of future flood losses and the Partner's commitment to the effort. The
Partnership Agreement is a prerequisite to any further activities under the CTP Program. The
Partnership Agreement template may be viewed or downloaded from the FEMA website at
h.ttp:/f vcvw.ferna.gov/flun/dl inoa.slitin.
As the Partner and FEMA identify specific tasks to undertake,Mapping Activity Statements
(MASs)will be developed to define the project scope and the roles and responsibilities of all
Partners involved in a particular Flood Map Project. Developing the MASs will be a
collaborative effort where both the Partner(s) and FEMA contribute data and units of work to
maximize the extent, accuracy, and usability of flood hazard studies to best meet local, State, and
Federal needs,while minimizing costs for all parties. The MAS is a key component of the
Cooperative Agreement package because it defines the activities that will be accomplished,the
entity responsible for them,how the activities will be funded,and the nature of the working
relationship between FEMA and its Partners.The MAS template may be viewed or downloaded
from the FEMA website at httpl:Www.ferna.gov/llunkll atemp.shtm.
Partners that participate in the long-term map maintenance of Digital FIRMS can sign the
LOMC MAS agreement This agreement allows a partner to take ownership of the LOMC
process. Developing the LOMC MAS will be a collaborative effort between the Partner(s) and
FEMA.
Partners should develop a MAS that addresses goals and performance measures. These MASs
should have a strong linkage to FEMA's Regional and National goals and performance ,
measures,as described below.
The Key Performance Parameter(KPP)measures the percentage of the Nation's population
whose safety is improved through the availability of accurate flood risk data in a Geographic
Information System (GIS)format. Four Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) contribute to this
KPP:
o KPI 1 Percentage of population with digital GIS flood data available online
o KPI 2 Percentage of population with adopted maps that meet quality standards
o KPI 3 Leveraged digital GIS flood data
o KPI 4 Percentage of appropriated funds sent to CTPs.

For projects that meet eligibility requirements, FEMA may award funds through the mechanism
of a Cooperative Agreement. The Cooperative Agreement provides for the disbursement of
Federal funds and defines the legal responsibilities associated with it. A Cooperative Agreement
is not required for locally funded mapping activities.
Activities
FEMA may provide technical assistance,training,and/or data to a Partner to support flood
hazard data development activities. As funding levels permit,the mapping activities for which
Partners may receive funding in fiscal year 2005 through a Cooperative Agreement with FEMA
are summarized in Table 2.
The Cooperative Agreements awarded for mapping activities under the CTP Program are
intended to supplement,not supplant, ongoing mapping efforts by a Partner,whether it be a
community/tribal government,regional agency, or State agency. The FEMA funds would be in
addition to the resources provided by the Partner for the mapping activities.

Eligibility Criteria
Partnerships are established based on the following criteria:
o The Potential Partner must have existing processes and/or systems in place to support
mapping or data collection activities that contribute to flood hazard identification. Non-
Federal funding must support these processes and/or systems.
o The Potential Partner must have the capability to perform,implement, or contract the
mapping activities for which it is applying. This capability may be indicated through(but
not limited to)a FEMA Regional Office review of both the map products previously
prepared by the Partner and the existing map production processes or systems the Partner
intends to use for CTP Program-related mapping activities.
o The Potential Partner must be a community that participates in the NFIP and is in good
standing in the Program as determined by the FEMA Regional Office,or be a State or
regional agency that serves communities that participate in the NFIP.
o The'Potential Partner should demonstrate its ability to leverage funding received from
FEMA. The National Goal for leverage is 20%. However,the more funding a Partner is
able to leverage improves their probability of increases in funding from FEMA for
current and future mapping activities.
Partners that receive funding from FEMA through a Cooperative Agreement must be able to
perform the financial management activities required as part of the Cooperative Agreement(i.e.,
account for Federal funds,prepare financial reports). At a minimum,FEMA requires that a
financial status report be provided quarterly at a minimum. To assist partners with meeting this
requirement, FEMA has created a recommended template for their use,and it should be
submitted to your FEMA Regional CTP Coordinator. FEMA Regional Offices will assist
Partners with these financial management activities as necessary.
FEMA will evaluate these criteria periodically,and the criteria may be enhanced further in the
future.
Technical Capabilities
In addition to the eligibility criteria described above,a Potential Partner must have in-house staff
capabilities in the appropriate technical area for the given mapping activity. If the work for any
portion of a mapping activity is contracted,the Potential Partner must have in-house staff
capable of monitoring the contractor(s) and approving the products developed by the
contractor(s). For these purposes,"capability"means demonstrated experience in the
performance of,or management through contracting of, similar activities.
Evaluation Criteria
Throughout the project and at the end of the period of performance for each MAS, FEMA will
evaluate the effectiveness of the partnership to determine eligibility for future mapping activities
under the CTP Program. If FEMA determines that the partnership has proven insufficient to

mapping activity may be cancelled.
FEMA will base its evaluation of the Partner's demonstrated performance on the following
criteria:
❑ Continued maintenance of the processes or systems in place to support mapping or data
collection activities that contribute to flood hazard identification(e.g., continued data
collection for changing flood hazards and related development, continued upgrades to
data collection or mapping capabilities to incorporate new technologies,preparation of
multiple-year mapping or data collection plans);
o Commitment to existing,and continued support of, flood hazard identification and.
mapping activities conducted with and by FEMA;
❑ Adherence to standards for timeliness and completeness of reports submitted to the
FEMA Regional Office;
❑ Adherence to standards for timeliness and completeness of map products submitted to.the
FEMA Regional Office;
o Quality of product(s) submitted to the FEMA Regional Office; and
❑ Ability to cooperate and coordinate with the staff of the following organizations during
all phases of the mapping activity as needed: FEMA Regional Office; Hazard
Identification Section of the Mitigation Division in the FEMA Headquarters Office in
Washington,DC; and designated FEMA contractors.
Standards
Unless otherwise indicated in specific MASs, all flood hazard identification activities will be
accomplished in accordance with the relevant portions of the NFIP regulations (44CFR Parts 59-
77)as well as the standards contained in FEMA's Guidelines and Specifications for Flood
Hazard Mapping Partners,which can be downloaded from the FEMA website at
http /www.fema.rov!fhm/dl cgs. htm. With the development of new and improved technology,
FEMA has established new standard tools to assist mapping partners in their efforts. For
partners with existing systems and technologies,please refer to Appendix N of the Guidelines
and Specifications for Flood Hazard Mapping Partners, for acceptable data capture standards.
Certification
All data generated under MASs must meet the applicable certification requirements for the
identification and publication of flood hazard information in FIRM form as indicated in 44 CFR
Part 65,Identification.and Mapping of Special Hazard Areas. Some States have adopted more
stringent mapping standards than the minimum NFIP regulatory requirements. For these cases,
Partners must coordinate all activities with the State to ensure the MASs are reviewed and
concurred upon, and all map products resulting from a CTP Program-related mapping activity
must meet State certification requirements.

State Role
The role filled by a State will be a function of its authority and capabilities. Some States have
developed Map Modernization Management Support business plans,which explain in detail their
capability and capacity to manage Map Modernization in their state. These plans also include an
explanation of the State's role in the CTP Program. Some states also review map revisions as
part of their regulatory responsibilities.
As with the options available to communities and regional agencies,interested State agencies
will be expected to have in-house staff capabilities.to fulfill the CTP Program-related mapping
activity it would like to perform. State agencies that do not participate in the CTP Program will
continue the traditional functions of the State Coordinating Office as they relate to any activities
performed by participating Partners in that state. In general,the activities that a State agency
might perform are the same as those identified for communities,with the addition of collection
and assessment of community mapping needs and a base map inventory.
Funding
CTP Program-related activities may be funded based on FEMA's priority of mapping needs the
availability of FEMA funds for mapping, and the amount of leverage provided by the CTP
Partner. If FEMA funds are provided,the Partner may receive funds through a Cooperative
Agreement. Because the FEMA mapping budget varies annually,the amount of funding for CTP
Program-related activities also will vary. Each FEMA Regional Office will determine how much
of its annual mapping budget will be allocated to mapping activities under the CTP Program.
Typically,the funding for CTP Program-related Flood Map Projects is allocated through one
Cooperative Agreement once the MAS is signed. However, for large or complex projects,
extensive planning may need to be performed before the MAS is developed. For such projects,
the Cooperative Agreement may be processed in a phased approach. Use of the phased approach
will alleviate the need for extensions of performance periods and project revisions and improve
overall efficiency through the development of a thorough project scope. In such instances,the
FEMA Regional Office may allocate up to 10 percent of the total estimated funding for the
project to the Partner to develop a project scope and MAS. Once the MAS is signed and in
place,the Partner may then request the remaining funding required for completing the project.
Contracting
Contractors used by Partners for FEMA-funded activities must meet the requirements of Part 13
of the Code of Federal Regulations (44 CFR Part 13),Uniform administrative requirements for
grants and cooperative agreements to state and local governments. Within Part 13, §13.36
covers procurement standards that must be followed for any mapping-related activities for which
a Partner wishes to contract with another party. Items in this Part include,but are not limited to,
contract administration and record keeping,notification requirements,review procedures,
competition,methods of procurement, and cost and pricing analysis. Part 13 may be
downloaded in PDF or text format from the U.S. Government Printing Office website at
http://www.access.gpo.gov/naralcfr/waisidx_02/44cfr 13_02.html.
If requested by the Partner,FEMA will provide assistance to a Partner on developing selection
criteria for contracted tasks. All work must meet the certification requirements described below.
