Description

The Military Installation Resiliency (MIR) grant program provides technical and financial assistance to state, local, and Tribal governments for studies that identify and assess natural and man-made threats, such as wildfire, to infrastructure outside a miliary instillation necessary to conduct critical missions.

In FY2023, the previously separated Compatible Use Plan (formerly Joint Land Use Study) and Military Installation Resiliency grants were merged into one broader program, Installation Resilience, which provides technical and financial assistance to state, local, and Tribal governments for activities that address man-made or natural threats that are likely to affect operations or readiness at local military installations. Projects may include: a comprehensive review of natural and man-made threats and vulnerabilities; targeted studies or plans concerning, but not limited to, transportation, land use/encroachment, utility services, housing, stormwater management, sewer, and communications; and table-top exercises with local military and civilian (public and private) leadership to review capacities of hard infrastructure and public services to respond to natural and/or man-made disruptions.
