Emergency of Primary Federal Responsibility
Emergency of Primary Federal Responsibility : "An emergency for which the primary responsibility for response rests with the United States (rather than a State) because the emergency involves a subject area for which, under the Constitution or laws of the United States, the Federal government exercises exclusive or pre-eminent responsibility and authority. In determining whether such an emergency exists, the President consults the Governor of the affected State, if practicable". (FEMA, Mission Assignment SOPs Operating Draft, 2007, p. 50)
