Regional Interagency Steering Committee (RISC)
Regional Interagency Steering Committee (RISC) : "RISCs are responsible for multi-agency coordination under the NRP on a steady-state basis. The RISCs support the national-level groups by coordinating issues and solutions that are unique to the regions. RISCs also coordinate preparedness efforts with other regional-level preparedness organizations (such as the Regional Response Teams (RRTs) that coordinate regional ESF #10 efforts). At a minimum, the RISC is comprised of representatives from each State in the region and, where appropriate, regional-level representatives from ESF primary and support agencies. RISCs meet at least quarterly and provide an operational-level forum for regional planning, interagency information sharing, and coordination. Each RISC includes an executive-level committee that meets at least twice yearly to provide executive-level guidance and oversight". (FEMA, Mission Assignment SOPs Operating Draft, July 2007, p. 59)
