Cost Effectiveness Section

The Cost Effectiveness section collects information about the cost effectiveness of the proposed mitigation activity. The information to be provided here is based on a FEMA-approved Benefit-Cost Analysis (BCA). The Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR) is calculated by dividing the Net Present Value of the Project Benefits by the Total Projected Cost Estimate for the project. Select the Attach button to upload BCA documentation. Maintenance costs are included in the BCA, so it is important to use the Total Project Costs figures generated through that analysis when completing this section. This section is not required for planning subapplications.
