Going from a 'Federal' to a 'National' Approach: The

Interim National Response Plan (INRP) & The National

Incident Management System (NIMS)

January 7, 2004 -- 12:00 Noon Eastern Time 



To begin the New Year of 2004, the EIIP Virtual Forum

http://www.emforum.org invites you to a 'live chat'

presentation and interactive Q&A session, January 7th,

12:00 noon Eastern time (please convert to your local

time). Our topic will be the most recent developments

in the implementation of Homeland Security Presidential

Directive #5, specifically the planning requirements

for responding to domestic incidents.

 

Our guest will be Charles M. Hess, Deputy Director,

Response Division, Emergency Preparedness & Response

Secretariat, Department of Homeland Security. Mr. Hess

is responsible for directing and overseeing the

development and implementation of operational policies

and procedures, and deployment of resources for use by

DHS and other Federal departments and agencies in

responding to: (1) Presidential disaster and other

emergency declarations; (2) National Security

Emergencies; and (3) the response to technological and

man-made incidents in support of State and local

governments. 



Please make plans to start off the new year by joining

us and learning how this new approach will affect your

emergency management program in the years to come. See

the Background Page for related links, further

biographical information, and instructions for

participating (especially if this will be your first

time) - http://www.emforum.org .  To login, click on

the "Chat Login' link and follow instructions. 



This educational opportunity is brought to you by the

Emergency Information Infrastructure Partnership

(EIIP).  If interested in partnering with the EIIP,
