Management of Domestic Incidents Sample Clauses

Management of Domestic Incidents. On February 28, 2003, the President issued Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD)-5, Management of Domestic Incidents, which directs the Secretary of Homeland Security to develop and administer a National Incident Management System (NIMS). The system provides a consistent nationwide approach for Federal, State, local, and tribal governments and private sector and nongovernmental organizations to work together effectively to prepare for, prevent, respond to, and recover from domestic incidents. The HSPD-5 requires development of a single, all-discipline, all-hazards National Response Plan (NRP). The NRP uses the comprehensive framework provided by NIMS. Additionally, the directive requires all Federal agencies to adopt and use the NIMS and use in their individual programs and activities. One of the most important components of the NIMS is the Incident Command System (ICS), a standard, on-scene, all-hazards incident management system already in use by some firefighters, hazardous materials teams, rescuers and emergency medical teams. The ICS has been established by the NIMS as the standardized incident organizational structure for the management of all incidents.
