NIMS and ICS play vital roles in emergency management response and resiliency and reactionary-based planning at the local, state, and federal levels. Further, in a chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, explosive (CBRNE) event, both NIMS and ICS must be utilized.
In a two-page reflection paper, complete the following sections:
Part I: Explain the role and purpose of NIMS and ICS. Further, NIMS and ICS can be applied to most emergency incidents that occur to include weapons of mass destruction scenarios involving chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive occurrences.
Part II: Create a table-top exercise incident involving a weapons of mass destruction event that can be administered at a law enforcement agency. Include the following: type of incident, agencies involved, location of incident, roles of agencies, how response should take place, and the role of NIMS and ICS. How is interoperability and resource management applied to your scenario? Finally, reflect on why table-top exercises are important to complete in the criminal justice and homeland security sectors.
