Due Week 3 and worth 150 points

Per the text, the federal, state, and local governments of a
disaster-stricken area must work together in many ways. The federal government
may declare a federal disaster and provide federal assistance to the area if
certain requirements are met.

Read the following two (2) FEMA articles:

Write a five to eight (5-8) page paper in which you:

  1. Specify the nature of the interrelationships between the federal, state, and
    local government, the private sector, and nongovernmental organizations as
    outlined in the National Planning Frameworks and the five (5) preparedness
    mission areas in the “National Planning Frameworks” article.
  2. Analyze the specific requirements that the government must meet in order to
    declare a federal disaster and provide federal assistance, as outlined in the
    “Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Public Law
    93-288) as amended” article. Evaluate the importance of each requirement.
  3. Suggest two (2) requirements (not listed in the Robert T. Stafford Disaster
    Relief and Emergency Assistance Act) that you believe the government should
    follow in order to declare a federal disaster and provide federal assistance.
    Provide a rationale to support your suggestion.
  4. Use at least three (3) quality references. Note: Wikipedia and other related
    websites do not qualify as academic resources.

    instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s
    name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and
    the reference page are not included in the required assignment page
    length.
