Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 23 GPD 075 00 01
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 Intercity Passenger Rail (IPR) - Amtrak grant is a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and FEMA transportation security program designed specifically to strengthen security and resilience across the nations intercity passenger rail system. It is one of four FEMA-administered grant programs focused on transportation infrastructure security, and it sits within a broader set of congressionally authorized efforts meant to harden critical infrastructure against terrorism and other deliberate threats. The core purpose of this program is to provide funding to Amtrak to help protect critical surface transportation assets and the traveling public from acts of terrorism, while also supporting national preparedness and resilience goals set out in DHS and FEMA strategic plans.
This opportunity is issued as a discretionary cooperative agreement, meaning FEMA expects to maintain an active partnership role during the period of performance rather than simply issuing a pass-through award. The funding activity is categorized as "Other" (with further clarification typically provided in the full notice), and it is tied to CFDA number 97.075. The eligible applicant category is listed as "Others," but in practice the program is aimed at Amtrak as the intended recipient, which is reinforced by the program title and the expectation of a single award.
In terms of scale and structure, the notice anticipates one award with an award ceiling of $10,000,000. The opportunity was created on February 27, 2023, with an original closing date of May 18, 2023. The funding opportunity number is DHS 23 GPD 075 00 01, and the issuing agency is the Department of Homeland Security through FEMA.
Strategically, the program is framed around DHSs homeland security mission to "Strengthen Preparedness and Resilience." It also aligns with FEMAs 2022-2026 Strategic Plan, particularly the objective to "Promote and Sustain a Ready FEMA and Prepared Nation." Taken together, the program is positioned not just as a security upgrade fund, but as part of a larger national posture aimed at improving readiness, reducing risk, and ensuring that major public transportation systems can prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from terrorist incidents. The notice also signals that FEMA encourages stakeholders and partners to adopt these same priorities, emphasizing a whole-community approach to building a more prepared and resilient nation.Apply for DHS 23 GPD 075 00 01
