Capability Assessment 1 :
After conducting a Hazards Analysis, "[t]he next step for the jurisdiction is to assess its current capability for dealing with the hazards that have been identified Current capability is determined against standards and criteria FEMA has established as necessary to perform basic emergency management functions, e.g., alerting and warning, evacuation, emergency communications. The resulting information provides a summary of the capabilities that exist and upon which current plans should be prepared?and leads to the identification of the jurisdiction's weaknesses".
