Combating terrorism FEMA continues to make progress in coordinating preparedness and response Book PDF Summary

In policy and practice, FEMA has generally addressed the key lessons learned from its experience in coordinating federal consequence management activities after the Oklahoma City bombing. In analyzing the lessons learned after the bombing, FEMA identified three major actions that needed to be taken: (1) create guidance to facilitate agencies' coordinated response to terrorist events, (2) ensure that state and local emergency plans terrorism, the Federal Response Plan, and (3) establish an adequate number of emergency response teams to deal with mass casualties. Improvements in these areas have been made across the board. FEMA has updated the Federal Response Plan to address how federal agencies, states, and localities would work together to respond to an act of terrorism, and states are increasingly modeling their emergency operations plans on the federal plan. Also, the number of teams available for emergency response to deal with mass casualties has doubled since 1995. In response to a PDD 39 requirement and to ensure that states are prepared to respond to a terrorist incident, FEMA assessed states' capabilities for consequence management in 1995 and set up a system to continue monitoring those capabilities. In 1997, FEMA reported to the Congress and to the President that the states had the basic capabilities to respond to disasters but were not well prepared for a terrorist incident involving a weapon of mass destruction. The agency has also expanded terrorism preparedness training grants and systematically incorporated terrorism preparedness courses into its emergency management curriculum. On the federal level, FEMA coordinates extensively with other involved agencies on key, national-level terrorism preparedness guidance and policy documents and on activities, as required by PDDs 39 and 62. The agency also participates in numerous operations and special events designed to enhance the security of domestic events.
