The overarching goal of BIDP is to explore innovative and effective models of interoperable emergency communications systems and approaches that improve emergency communications along and across the U.S. border, and that can be shared with and adapted to other U.S. border communities. All projects are required to meet one or more of the BIDP Project Objectives. All applications should clearly state which of the below BIDP Project Objectives the project addresses (see Section I.G.): 1. Improve day-to-day interoperable emergency communications among local, tribal, State, and Federal entities, and international partners along and across international borders; 2. Improve interoperable emergency communications among emergency response providers responding to threats and natural disasters on the border; or 3. Facilitate interoperable communications among emergency response providers in border communities of varying population densities. The distinct subject matter of this funding opportunity necessitates a thorough review of the official program guidance referenced at the URL provided in the contact section of this summary.
