Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I find the information that was on the Domestic Preparedness Web site?

As designated by Public Law 104-201, the Domestic Preparedness program oversight and execution transitioned to the Department of Justice (DOJ) on 1 October 2000; therefore, the original Domestic Preparedness Web site no longer exists. For your convenience, we have listed all information products that have been carried over from the Domestic Preparedness Web site. For any other information products not listed please e-mail Homeland Defense at homeland.defense@sbccom.apgea.army.mil.

How can I receive printed copies of the various Domestic Preparedness training materials?

Domestic Preparedness training materials can be obtained from EAI at this web address, http://www.eaicorp.com/. For printed Homeland Defense publications please send an e-mail to homeland.defense@sbccom.apgea.army.mil. Please include your name, organization, phone number, and printed material request (please include title of fact sheet, report, etc.).

What happened to the Compendium of Weapons of Mass Destruction Courses that used to be on the Domestic Preparedness Web site?

For your convenience, we have provided a link: Domestic Preparedness Compendium of Weapons of Mass Destruction Courses-August 2000 (523 KB PDF, 159 pages)

How can I determine what equipment to use?

Determining what equipment to use is a very complicated question. It depends on your goals, skill levels, personnel availablility, etc. In order to assist you in determining your equipment needs, see the reports listed in the information products section. These reports will allow you to compare the different types of equipment available.
