Mass Casualty and Catastrophic Event Enhancement <br /> <br /> The mass casualty and catastrophic event enhancement initiative is aimed at developing a <br /> <br /> comprehensive statewide Fire, Emergency Medical System (EMS), Hazardous Materials <br /> (HazMat), and Urban Search and Rescue program that will provide a timely and effective <br /> <br /> response to routine CBRNE incidents and catastrophic events. Complimenting the EMS and <br /> HazMat, continue the building of the state-wide Urban Seazch and Rescue medium capability. <br /> To prepaze agencies to respond to incidents covered by the plan by insuring equipment and <br /> procedures for routine operations that can be readily expanded to address large scale incidents. <br /> Provide additional equipment, training, and exercises to support mass casualty, mass <br /> decontamination, and mobile command requirements of catastrophic incidents. To insure <br /> effective command and control through incorporation of communications interoperability and <br /> use of the National Incident Management System (NIMS) at all levels." <br /> Initiative 9 -Synopsis <br /> Mass Casualty and Catastrophic Event Enhancement <br /> Attachment 4 <br /> <br />
