National Response Plan
By this Presidential directive NIMS compliance activities to be accomplished during FY 2005. This is an outline of activities that states and local and tribal entities should accomplish during the fiscal year that ends on Sept. 30, 2005. This outline is drawn from the letter from the Secretary of Homeland Security to the Governors on Sept. 8, 2004. The National Response Plan establishes a comprehensive all-hazards approach to enhance the ability of the United States to manage domestic incidents. The plan incorporates best practices and procedures from incident management disciplines—homeland security, emergency management, law enforcement, firefighting, public works, public health, responder and recovery worker health and safety, emergency medical services, and the private sector—and integrates them into a unified structure. It forms the basis of how the federal government coordinates with state, local, and tribal governments and the private sector during incidents.
