FEMA Awards ICF $21 Million Emergency Preparedness Contract
ICF Will Continue Support for FEMA’s Radiological Emergency
Preparedness Program
FAIRFAX, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recently awarded ICF
(NASDAQ:ICFI), a global consulting and technology services provider, a
contract valued up to $20.8 million to support education and
preparedness programs to protect communities living in proximity to the
nation’s nuclear power plants. The Radiological Emergency Preparedness
(REP) Program contract, which was awarded
in the second quarter, has a term of five years including one base
and four option years.
ICF has supported the REP Program since 2000, the first year the
contract opened to the private sector. Since that time, the company has
served as a trusted partner, helping FEMA and its state, local and
industry partners by providing program management, policy analysis,
training and exercise evaluations designed to protect the public health
and safety of citizens living near the estimated 60 commercial nuclear
power plants nationwide.
In addition to REP, ICF has long supported a range of national
preparedness and community resilience programs for FEMA and its partners
including incident management training development and delivery, program
management for the national exercise program, regional disaster response
planning in New York and Southern California, public health preparedness
technical assistance and state-level disaster recovery operations
management following major natural disasters.
“This win represents ICF’s enduring commitment to FEMA’s radiological
preparedness program and to building resilient communities by preparing
them for response and recovery from potential catastrophic events,” said John
Paczkowski, senior vice president for ICF. “We are proud to help
FEMA continue to implement this critical component of the National
Preparedness System.”
FEMA established the Radiological Emergency Preparedness (REP) Program
to ensure that state and local plans and preparedness can adequately
protect the public health and safety of citizens living around
commercial nuclear power plants.
