Regional Response Coordination Center (RRCC) 2
Regional Response Coordination Center (RRCC) 2 : "The RRCCs are regionally-based multiagency coordination centers that perform a complementary role to the NRCC [National Response Coordination Center, FEMA HQ]. Operating in the ten FEMA Regions, the RRCCs provide situational awareness information, identify and coordinate response requirements, perform capabilities analysis, and report on the status of Federal disaster response operations. The RRCCs deploy liaison officers and Emergency Response Teams-Advanced (ERT-A) [Emergency Response Team] to initiate Federal support, facilitate initial delivery of goods and services to save lives and property and to stabilize local infrastructures. They facilitate prioritizing "in theater" interagency resource allocation and coordination. NRCC and RRCC activations and operations are scalable and adjustable to most effectively address the nature, scope, magnitude, and potential impacts of an incident". (FEMA, Statement of Cannon, 2007, 6)
