Today’s Objective
Discuss the relationships between the JFO and the EOC and how FEMA
would like to see us interact. According the HSPD-5, we will need to
have our personnel trained in NIMS and relate our disaster plan to the ICS
structures of other responding agencies. It is important that you know
how to access SBA Loans and how the SOC can help in adding you to
the LMS Strategy.
We want to make sure that we are using titles of LOGS, OPS, FIN/ADMIN
and incorporating our key messages to the IC so the PIO has pertinent
information internally and externally. All of this will help us as agencies
coordinate with the DCT and ultimately provide access to the DCC. We
Kevin Smith
all need to be sure to tie ourselves into the VOAD movement. (VOAiD for
National
Specialist
you old timers.) Forget
not thatDisaster
