The study finds three potential options for an expanded Army role in civil emergency response: (1) continue to support the Federal Emergency Management Administration's (FEMA's) leadership of disaster response planning; (2) expand the Director of Military Support office to include formal state liaison offices; and (3) designate civil disaster support as a fifth pillar of national defense strategy and incorporate disaster-support missions into the Army's primary missions. The last two options expand the Army's current role and will require both internal changes and outside actions. While weighing these options and examining the issues surrounding them, the Army should take three steps to make its force ready to meet the current expectations of the American people in the event of a disaster at home: (1) transfer executive authority for military support from the Secretary of the Army to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs; (2) support formal acceptance of civil disaster response as a mission for both active and reserve forces; and (3) review legal constraints on military participation in civil disaster relief. 606 $aEmergency management$zUnited States 606 $aEmergency management$zUnited States 615 0$aEmergency management 615 0$aEmergency management 676 $a355.3/4 700 $aSchrader$b John Y$01231840 712 02$aUnited States.$bArmy. 712 02$aArroyo Center. 712 02$aRand Corporation. 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996320210903316 996 $aThe Army's role in domestic disaster support$92860297 997 $aUNISA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
