Nota di contenuto

Results in brief -- Background -- DOD has its own CBRNE consequence management plans in place but is unable to fully integrate them with other federal plans, which are incomplete -- DOD's planned response to CBRNE incidents may be insufficient -- DOD has taken actions to improve CCMRF readiness, but training gaps and conflicting priorities may degrade performance -- CCMRF requirements have not been fully developed, and funding and oversight are decentralized -- Conclusions.
