Ports not identified in Group I or II are eligible to apply as a Group III or &#147;All Other Port Areas&#148; applicant.  There is no designated Ferry appropriation.  Ferry Systems in Group I and II can apply through the designated Fiduciary Agent (FA).  All other Ferry Systems should apply with the Group III and &#147;All Other Port Areas.&#148;  &#147;All Other Port Areas&#148; within Group I, II or III are allowed to receive grant funds from their geographically proximate higher group if the project has regional impact across the entire port area, but not from both funding groups for the same project.
Description: The PSGP is one tool in the comprehensive set of measures authorized by Congress and implemented by the Administration to strengthen the Nation&#146;s critical infrastructure against risks associated with potential terrorist attacks. The vast bulk of U.S. critical infrastructure is owned and/or operated by State, local and private sector partners. PSGP funds support increased port-wide risk management; enhanced domain awareness; training and exercises; and further capabilities to prevent, detect, respond to, and recover from attacks involving improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and other non-conventional weapons.
