(2) United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Services: USACE can provide water, ice, construction materials, and engineer services when activated under ESF#3 and ESF#6 (Mass Care, Emergency Assistance, Housing, and Human Services). (3) Mortuary Affairs: The joint force may aid federal and state agencies by providing mortuary affairs assistance. (4) Decontamination Planning: The Environmental Protection Agency is the ESF coordinator and primary agency responsible for hazardous waste.
