SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Homeland
Security Presidential Directive–8
(HSPD–8: National Preparedness) issued
on December 17, 2003, establishes
policies to strengthen the preparedness
of the United States to prevent and
respond to threatened or actual
domestic terrorist attacks, major
disasters, and other emergencies by
requiring a National Preparedness Goal
that establishes measurable priorities
and targets, establishing mechanisms to
improve delivery of Federal
preparedness assistance to State, local,
and tribal governments, and outlining
actions to strengthen preparedness
capabilities of Federal, State, local, and
tribal governments and their private
sector partners. HSPD–8 further directs
that the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS), in coordination with
other appropriate Federal departments
and agencies, establish a ‘‘national
program and a multi-year planning
system to conduct homeland security
preparedness-related exercises that
reinforces identified training standards,
provides for evaluation of readiness,
and supports the National Preparedness
Goal.’’ Section 648(b)(1) of the PostKatrina Emergency Management Reform
Act of 2006 (6 U.S.C. 748(b)(1)) also
provides for these exercises and states
the Administrator ‘‘shall carry out a
national exercise program to test and
evaluate the national preparedness goal,
National Incident Management System,
National Response Plan, and other
related plans and strategies.’’ The
Homeland Security Exercise and
Evaluation Program (HSEEP) provides
the program structure, multi-year
planning system, tools, and guidance
necessary for entities to build and
sustain exercise programs that enhance
homeland security capabilities and,
ultimately, preparedness. The

Evaluation (HSEEP) After Action Report
