Crisis Management 12
Crisis Management 12 :
"The HSPD-5 and the NRP adopt the concept of incident management as including both consequence management (CM) and crisis management (CrM), while DOD continues to categorize CS [Civil Support] operations using these two terms. The application of CrM and CM is unique and separate in the context of planning and conducting military operations". CrM is predominantly a law enforcement response, normally executed under federal law. DHS is responsible for preventing terrorist attacks, reducing the vulnerability of the United States to terrorism, minimizing the damage, and assisting in the recovery, from terrorist attacks.... Historically, much of DOD's CS mission set has involved CM operations. This is due to legal restrictions which generally preclude DOD from participating in CrM law enforcement investigations and operations". (JCS/DoD, Civil Support, 2007, p. I-9)
