The Industry Day shall be held on Thursday, September 25, 2008, from 9:00 AM ET to 12:00 PM ET. Sign-in shall begin at 8:15 AM ET on September 25, 2008. The U. S. Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency requires architect-engineer services to support the PA Program's disaster-related operations in accordance with the statutory authority of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. §5121-5206 (hereinafter referred to as the Stafford Act). The PA Program provides supplementary Federal assistance to State and local governments, certain private nonprofit organizations, and Indian Tribes and Alaskan Native Villages under Presidential major disaster declarations to clear debris; implement emergency protective measures for the preservation of life and property; repair or replace infrastructure, such as streets, bridges, and water control facilities; repair or replace public buildings and related equipment; repair or restore public utilities; and repair or restore public recreational facilities and parks. These program activities are highly visible and require the services of professional engineers, consultants, and other related technical specialists with knowledge, experience, and expertise in the professional field of architect-engineer services. To support this requirement, contractors shall provide architect-engineer, consultant, and other related professional services to FEMA in support of the PA Program and the PA Division's other programs, which include the Fire Management Assistance Grant Program and the Community Disaster Loan Program.
