Southern Regional Emergency Management Compact (SREMAC)
Southern Regional Emergency Management Compact (SREMAC) :
"Many questions were raised about the capability of the federal and non-federal governments to manage the consequences of disasters after Hurricane Andrew destroyed much of the infrastructure in areas around Miami, Florida. Then-Florida Governor Lawton Chiles initiated discussions with other governors through the Southern Governors Association to develop a mutual aid agreement. These discussions concluded with agreement by 17 states, as well as the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, to adopt the Southern Regional Emergency Management Compact (SREMAC) in 1993".
