NG CERFP Mission Planning

• The NG CERFP will operate within the supported/supporting State’s Emergency Management Incident Command (IC) System.

• NG CERFP will not be in the lead but in a supporting role when requested via the Emergency Management System.

• CERFP response operations will be organized and supported within the tiered response of Local, State, and Federal responders.

• NG CERFP will work in coordination with other military forces and commands as part of the overall national response of local, State and Federal Assets.

• NG CERFP may be pre-positioned at designated locations in anticipation of a potential CBRNE incident i.e. a possible threat based on up to date and vetted information, or at a designated National Special Security Event (NSSE)
