Question:
| Are State and local governments required to integrate antiterrorism into mitigation planning? |
Answer:
| No. There is no requirement in the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 or any other FEMA program to incorporate terrorism into all-hazard mitigation planning. However, State and local governments are strongly encouraged to treat antiterrorism as mitigation and establish or enhance the linkages between law enforcement/security, emergency management and other stakeholder organizations. |
