Pages : 75
Book Description
Comprehensive Preparedness Guide (CPG) 101 provides guidelines on developing emergency operations plans (EOP). It promotes a common understanding of the fundamentals of risk-informed planning and decision making to help planners examine a hazard or threat and produce integrated, coordinated, and synchronized plans. The goal of CPG 101 is to make the planning process routine across all phases of emergency management and for all homeland security mission areas. This Guide helps planners at all levels of government in their efforts to develop and maintain viable all-hazards, all-threats EOPs. Accomplished properly, planning provides a methodical way to engage the whole community in thinking through the life cycle of a potential crisis, determining required capabilities, and establishing a framework for roles and responsibilities. It shapes how a community envisions and shares a desired outcome, selects effective ways to achieve it, and communicates expected results. Each jurisdiction's plans must reflect what that community will do to address its specific risks with the unique resources it has or can obtain.

Book Description
GAO reviewed sections of six states' emergency plans developed or updated with Federal funds provided under the Disaster Relief Act of 19714. These plans show the role state agencies will perform during and after a disaster. Some state agencies had not developed adequate procedures to determine how tasks would be performed. None of the states had developed training programs to prepare state and local personnel to implement assigned tasks. In five states, local communities' emergency plans were not compatible with state plans. This report makes a number of recommendations to the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency to effect the needed improvements.
