Background
• In February of 2003, President Bush signed
Homeland Security Presidential Directive-5

development of the National Incident
Management System (NIMS) and a rewrite
of the National Response Plan (NRP).
NIMS establishes standards for all levels of
government and non-government agencies
as well as some private sector companies to
use when responding to domestic incidents.

NIMS implementation requirements. Tribal and
local governments were encouraged to start
implementing the NIMS.
• Self Certification: The state must certify that,
taken as a whole, it met the minimum FY05
requirements. State certification required to
receive FY06 preparedness funds.
FY 2006 Compliance

funds.
FY 2007 and Beyond
• Self Certification: The state (including its
local jurisdictions) has met the minimum
FY06 requirements. State certification
required to receive FY07 preparedness
funds.
• State certification of ongoing NIMS
compliance continues to be required to
receive federal preparedness funds.
