Earthquake Non-Structural Mitigation Workshop - MO47
Since January of 2005, there have been over 200 earthquakes along the New Madrid Seismic Zone, many of which were widely felt throughout the region. When and where the next one will occur, and how large it will be, are questions which are difficult, if not impossible, to answer with any certainty, but reducing the vulnerability from damages is possible. Northeast Kansas recent magnitude 3.1 earthquake was a reminder that Region VII has more than one location that can produce damaging earthquakes. Even during smaller sized earthquakes, non-structural components of buildings and structures can cause injury and/or varying amounts of damage. Components such as shelving, filing systems, parapets, computer systems, and more, are all susceptible to damage if not properly secured. By using sound, cost effective mitigation techniques, these losses can be reduced, and in some cases eliminated. The Missouri State Emergency Management Agency and the Federal Emergency Management Agency are pleased to invite you to a one day workshop on the basic principles of non-structural mitigation for earthquakes.

IS-800 National Response Plan (NRP), an Introduction - IS800.A
Since the tragic events of September 11, 2001, our Nation has now resolved to better prepare to prevent terrorist attacks within the United States; reduce America's vulnerability to terrorism, major disasters, and other emergencies; and minimize the damage and recover from attacks, major disasters, and other emergencies that occur. These complex and emerging 21st century threats and hazards demand a unified and coordinated national approach to domestic incident management. The National Response Plan, or NRP, specifies how the resources of the Federal Government will work in concert with State, local, and tribal governments and the private sector to respond to Incidents of National Significance. The NRP is predicated on the National Incident Management System, or NIMS. Together the NRP and the NIMS provide a nationwide template for working together to prevent or respond to threats and incidents regardless of cause, size, or complexity. You can find more information about the National Response Plan by clicking on the following link NRP. This course introduces you to the NRP, including the concept of operations upon which the plan is built, roles and responsibilities of the key players, and the organizational structures used to manage these resources. The NRP provides a framework to ensure that we can all work together when our Nation is threatened. The course is designed for DHS and other Federal department/agency staff responsible for implementing the NRP, as well as State, local and private sector emergency management professionals.
