Securing the Cities Program, 2020 STC Sustainment: The STC program enhances the ability of the Unites States to detect and prevent terrorist attacks and other high-consequence events utilizing nuclear or other radiological materials that pose a high risk to homeland security in high risk urban areas (HRUA). Support to recipients includes assistance in developing and integrating local or regional programs into a national detection structure, guiding the development of Concepts of Operations (CONOPs) and standard operating procedures, providing radiological/nuclear (R/N) detection equipment, providing training and exercise products to ensure detection is integrated into day-to-day activities and that partners are proficient in the detection mission area. Capability is defined as trained and equipped personnel who are proficient in the use of R/N detection equipment and guided by detection and response protocols.This specific NOFO will focus on previous STC Program Recipients to sustain the regional capabilities and/or expanding those capabilities (by incorporating additional partners into the program), by recapitalizing the R/N detection equipment which has reached the end of its expected usable life cycle and funding the Regional Program Office to continue to manage the detection efforts within the region. This will enable the eligible applicants to continue to provide uninterrupted detection capabilities for their region and reducing the risk of R/N materials posing a threat to the high-risk urban area.
