Federal Emergency Management Agency Incident Management Handbook: FEMA B-761

by Fema

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is responsible for coordinating the delivery of federal support to state, local, tribal, and territorial governments under Presidential emergency or major disaster declarations or to other federal agencies under the concept of federal-to-federal support. Such coordination generally involves multiple departments, agencies, jurisdictions, and non-federal partners employing a broad range of assets and resources. It is important to recognize that FEMA does not assume responsibility for local incident command activities but, instead, provides a structure for the command, control, and coordination of federal resources to states, local incident commands, and other end users.
