New Hampshire HUD CDBG-DR and FEMA Resources

Grantee website, Federal Register notices, and FEMA disaster declarations for the State of New Hampshire.

The New Hampshire resource page is the state entry in the WindRainFlood.Com Resources index. It links to the HUD CDBG-DR grantee website for the State of New Hampshire (CDFA), the Federal Register search URL for CDBG-DR notices that name New Hampshire, and a live FEMA disaster declaration table, filtered by default to DR-type declarations for New Hampshire over the last five years.

The page is designed so that a household, a business, or an oversight volunteer can locate the state agency that administers the federal recovery grant, confirm the FEMA declaration number for their disaster, and search the declaration history for the state in one place.

The Three-Step New Hampshire State Index Routine

A repeatable sequence that locates the New Hampshire grantee, verifies the FEMA declaration, and tracks the assistance provided.

1

Locate the New Hampshire Grantee

Your Action: Open the CDFA grant program website from the New Hampshire Grantee card on this page. Look for the Action Plan, Amendments, Programs, and Applicant Portal sections.

Why It Matters: The CDFA grantee website is the only place where the New Hampshire household can read the current action plan, the current allocation, the current program rules, and the current status of an individual case.

2

Verify the New Hampshire Declaration

Your Action: Use the FEMA declarations table on this page to confirm the declaration number, the incident type, and the incident period for your disaster. If you need a wider search, use the FEMA declarations reference link below the table.

Why It Matters: The declaration number appears on the FEMA determination letter and on many New Hampshire program forms. Confirming it ensures your application is matched to the correct disaster.

3

Track the New Hampshire Assistance

Your Action: Use the Federal Register search on this page to review every HUD CDBG-DR notice that names New Hampshire. Use the HUD Exchange CDBG-DR link to confirm the current New Hampshire allocation and published action plan. Save a copy of the current action plan, the allocation, and every decision letter.

Why It Matters: The public record is the document that supports an oversight request, a public comment, a legislative inquiry, or a formal appeal. Preserving the record is the first step in preventing obscured aid.

Glossary Term: New Hampshire CDBG-DR Grantee

Definition: The State of New Hampshire, acting through the Community Development Finance Authority (CDFA), is the HUD CDBG-DR grantee for the state's non-entitlement communities .

In Practice: CDFA publishes the New Hampshire action plans, the amendments, the allocation amounts, the program rules, and the applicant portal on the CDFA website. CDFA is responsible for the program design, the eligibility determinations, and the appeal process for individual applicants.

Why It Matters: The CDFA website is the only public record of the New Hampshire recovery program. Without it, New Hampshire households cannot verify the program rules, the deadlines, or the case status.

Glossary Term: FEMA Disaster Declaration

Definition: A formal federal declaration by the President that a major disaster or emergency exists in a specified area and that federal assistance is authorized.

In Practice: The declaration records the disaster number, the state, the incident type, the incident period, and the designated counties. The declaration unlocks FEMA Individual Assistance, Public Assistance, Hazard Mitigation, and other federal programs.

Why It Matters: The declaration number appears on the FEMA determination letter and on most state and federal program forms. Without it, the household cannot verify eligibility or file a program application.

Case Origin: Why This Page Exists

After a presidentially declared disaster, federal recovery funding for New Hampshire flows through FEMA and HUD. FEMA administers Individual Assistance and Public Assistance. HUD administers the Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery program, which is awarded directly to the State of New Hampshire through CDFA .

This page traces to recurring New Hampshire flood, storm, and severe winter weather events where New Hampshire households could not locate the state's HUD CDBG-DR grantee website or the current FEMA declaration for their county. The pattern was consistent: households that found the state grantee website early in recovery completed the application faster and with fewer disputes than households that learned about the program after the application window had closed.

During the 2026 reorganization the recovery team found that the state recovery links, the FEMA declaration links, and the assistance matrix were documented on separate pages, and households could not see the full state record. The three were merged into this page, which carries the New Hampshire grantee website, the Federal Register search, and a live FEMA declarations lookup in one place.

Key public access points for New Hampshire:

  • CDFA CDBG-DR page: the New Hampshire grantee page for the HUD CDBG-DR program.
  • Federal Register search: the search that returns every HUD CDBG-DR notice naming New Hampshire.
  • FEMA Disaster Declarations: the federal database that records every New Hampshire declaration by number, incident type, and incident period.
  • FEMA Active Disaster Search: the federal search that lists currently open New Hampshire disasters.
  • HUD Exchange CDBG-DR: the federal program page that lists the New Hampshire allocation and the published action plan.
  • openFEMA: the federal open data portal that publishes FEMA program data, declarations, and assistance records for New Hampshire.

The method generalizes to any state or disaster because it depends on the public record that each grantee and each federal agency publishes. Any New Hampshire disaster can be looked up through the search tools on this page, and any new declaration is picked up automatically from the OpenFEMA v2 API.
