FY 2006 Port Security Grants Announced (Full Announcement)

Following risk-based national port security priorities, the FY 2006 PSGP will place a strong emphasis on prevention and detection against improvised explosive devices (IEDs). Of great concern are IEDs delivered via small craft, underwater and in vehicles on ferries. In addition, projects that demonstrate enhanced Maritime Domain Awareness (e.g., access control/standardized credentialing, command and control, communications and enhanced intelligence sharing and analysis) will also receive preference under the FY 2006 PSGP.
