The City of Mt Pleasant has applied for Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) funding through the Tennessee Emergency Management (TEMA) as a sub-recipient.
Under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), federal actions must be reviewed and evaluated for feasible alternatives and for social, economic, historic, environmental, legal, and safety considerations. Under Executive Order (EO) 11988 and EO 11990, FEMA is required to consider alternatives to and to provide a public notice of any proposed actions in or affecting floodplains or wetlands. EO 12898 also requires FEMA to provide the opportunity for public participation in the planning process and to consider potential impacts to minority and low-income populations. This notice may also fulfill requirements under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA).
Funding for the proposed project will be conditional upon compliance with all applicable federal, tribal, state, and local laws, regulations, floodplain standards, permit requirements and conditions.
Applicant: City of Mt. Pleasant
Project Title: Mt Pleasant Community Center Generator Project
Location of Proposed Work:
Name of Structure: See Table
Address of Structure: See Table, Mt. Pleasant, TN
A map showing the location of all properties is available by contacting (POINT-OF-CONTACT listed below)
Facility Address Latitude Longitude Date of Construction
Mt. Pleasant 501 Gray Lane , 35.546638 -87.206690 2005
Community Center Mt Pleasant, TN 38474
Proposed Work and Purpose:
The City of Mt Pleasant is seeking funding to allow the purchase and install for a new 100KW, fixed, natural gas-powered backup generator with an automatic transfer switch for the Community Center located at 501 Gray Lane, Mt. Pleasant, TN, 38474 (GPS 35.546409, -87.206569). The generator will operate and control the entire facility during extended power outage situations. The backup generator will be placed on a concrete pad with an enclosure constructed for protection from wind and flying debris.
Power failure at this critical facility is significant because the community center serves as a shelter, distribution center, TCAT Center, Senior Center, and TEEN Watch After School Program. When the power is out this facility can't function as a crucial service to the citizens of Mt Pleasant.
The purpose of the backup generator will be to provide emergency power during a disaster or extended power outage for continuity of operations to provide crucial services for the citizens health and safety. The project will meet NENA and NFPA 110 compliance.
Project Alternatives:
Alternative #1 (no action alternative):
Taking no action would result in the Community Center not being able to fully function to support the Community during an event as a shelter. No action is not an option because it does not provide for the health and safety for the citizens of Mount Pleasant.
Alternative #2:
Alternative action would require a need to contract for a rental generator to be placed on the facility and connected by a certified electrician creating a greater cost and this can be a problem for on-demand in an emergency to provide in a timely manner to make the shelter functional for the citizens.
PUBLIC COMMENTS: Any individual, group, or agency disagreeing with the proposed projects and is wishing to comment on these projects may submit written comments to the City of Mt Pleasant, contact information below. All comments received by May 1, 2026 will be reviewed by the County, and forwarded on to the State and FEMA.
