Topic: SERRI Project - Disaster Planning and Response
Application to First Responders: • Unified application for training, day-to-day,
and emergency operation
Application to Preparedness:
• Identify at-risk populations
• Project hazards
• Disseminate impact
Application to the Southeast: • Can support DHS concerns at local, state,
and regional levels
