The Evolution of Emergency Management
The U.S. disaster response system was established in the 1970s under a framework called the Incident Command System. The benefit of ICS is it's plug and play so you can expand it, but now we don't have localized disasters like we used to. States generally could call on another state and say, could you send over X, Y or Z? That's becoming harder as well as we're seeing these multi-state disasters.
