Jonathan Windy Boy
Establish all-hazard incident management teams and provide funding authority

5 comments:

  1. Missoula County supports SB5. Montana has faced a number of challenges in the last few years, ice jams and flooding in Eastern Montana, large wildland fires in Western Montana these events show how quickly emergency response resources can be taxed. Montana has been working to expand its capacity to respond to these emergencies and disasters around the State by promoting the creation of local incident management teams. These teams bring together responders from all areas, to help manage and plan for emergency and disasters in their communities. In emergency response it is said that all emergencies start and end at the local level, long before Federal help arrives and long after it leaves local responders manage the event. SB5 is the first step in insuring this vital tool is available to local responders and through the funding mechanism in the bill means that both small and large communities have access to this tool. Missoula County believes that SB5 helps to give responders the best chance for keeping rapidly evolving events managed at the local level which will help to control costs.
