FY 04 MMRS Grant Finance: Council Notes: Rf5l), d-DO~~3:( Agenda Item NO.~ g q [lg J Dc., STAFF REPORT SUBJECT: Resolution adopting the National Incident Management System as part of the City's emergency management system. BACKGROUND: On February 28, 2003, the President of the United States issued Homeland Security Directive number 8, that directs the Department of Homeland Security Secretary to develop and administer a National Incident Management System (NIMS). This system would provide a consistent nationwide approach for Federal, State, local, and tribal governments to work together more effectively and efficiently to prevent, prepare for, respond to and recover from domestic incidents, regardless of issue, size or complexity. NIMS was developed for the effective implementation and utilization of a comprehensive National Incident Management System. This includes the utilization of standardized terminology, standardized organizational structures, interoperable communications, consolidated action plans, and unified command structure. This also includes the utilization of uniform standards for planning, training, and exercising comprehensive resource management, and designated incident facilities during emergencies or disasters. Compliance with NIMS guidelines is an eligibility requirement for Federal preparedness assistance to State and local governments. All Federal preparedness grant programs the City participates in will be in jeopardy unless NIMS compliance requirements are met. Compliance with and implementation ofNIMS requirements will include four elements: I) Adoption of the National Incident Management System by the governing body; 2) NIMS required training courses for relevant staff (i.e. elected officials, city management, Fire personnel, Police personnel, and Emergency Operation Center responders (see attached training matrix); 3) Conducting NIMS baseline assessments; and 4) Integration of NIMS into existing plans. policies, and procedures. Compliance with NIMS training has already begun with relevant staff. Compliance with conducting a NIMS baseline assessment and integration into existing plans and policies will be accomplished during Federal Fiscal Year 2006/2007 (ending September 30, 2007). The Department of Homeland Security is seeking substantial completion of NIMS requirements by September 30, 2006. The goal for City staff is to have completion of NIMS training requirements by relevant City officials and staff by December 31, 2006. FINANCIAL IMP ACT: Financial impacts will be approximately $2,500, to include some training and printing related costs in the implementation of the National Incident Management System. These ~ ~ ./~~ 9/1 e/~6 costs will be funded through the FY 2004 Metropolitan Medical Response System grant account #123-719-5133. There is no financial impact to the City's General fund.
