The Rapid Response Team (RRT) cooperative agreement funds development, implementation, exercise and integration of an all-hazards food and food-borne illness response capability in order to more rapidly react to potential threats to our food supply. The RRT, which is designed to operate in conjunction with other food and feed agencies within state programs, other state RRTs, FDA district offices, and state emergency operations centers, is another tool to enhance response capabilities.
The RRTs will respond to all food hazard incidents in the farm-to-table continuum of food production and delivery by using incident command structure response protocols, a formalized crisis management system. Recipients will be awarded up to $500,000 in FY09 to develop its response team, conduct a program assessment, purchase equipment and supplies, hire personnel, and share information and data as appropriate.
The deadline for applications for Fiscal Year 2009 is June 30, 2009.
To view the full Program Announcement, please refer to the NIH Guide.
