This event was a series of emergency response related exchanges that facilitated a dynamic forum of joint interagency partners, local agencies and stakeholders.
The purpose of the workshop was to identify the processes, procedures, and structure to facilitate Defense support of civil authorities in Pohnpei.
The goal was to build on last year’s exchange and provide an opportunity to test and help identify the current strengths and areas of improvement in the Pohnpei and FSM emergency response plans.
The task force also benefitted from seeing first hand on how the processes and procedures work among the disaster management agencies of Pohnpei for all-hazards and terrorism events.
This workshop should provide the local agencies, Defense and the taks force a better understanding of the current disaster/mass casualty response operation in Pohnpei.
