SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Presidential Policy Directive 8 (PPD–8:
National Preparedness), issued on
March 30, 2011, establishes a National
Preparedness Goal (NPG) that identifies
the core capabilities necessary for
preparedness and a National
Preparedness System (NPS) which
guides activities to enable the Nation to
achieve the NPG. The NPS allows the
Nation to track the progress of our
ability to build and improve the
capabilities necessary to prevent,
protect against, mitigate the effects of,
respond to, and recover from those
threats that pose the greatest risk to the
security of the Nation.
The NPS provides an integrated
approach to preparedness that can be
implemented and measured at all levels
of government. This system is an all-ofNation and whole community approach
to preparedness, from neighborhood
organizations to civic groups and
private businesses. It contains a
methodical approach integrated across
the preparedness cycle and links
together programs and requirements
into a comprehensive system, driving
rational decision-making and allowing
for a direct and defensible assessment of
progress against clearly defined
objectives.
The NPS is based on a consistent
methodology for assessing the threats
and hazards facing a given jurisdiction.
The findings of the assessment drive
planning factors and all other
components of the preparedness cycle
including resource requirements,
existing capabilities and capability gaps,
driving investments to close those gaps,
making and validating improvements in
capabilities through training and
exercising, and continually assessing
progress.
Section 648(b)(1) of the Post-Katrina
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, 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 HSEEP After Action
Report Improvement, Training and
Exercise Plan, and National Exercise

Program Nomination Forms provide the
standardized methods for reporting the
results of exercises, identifying exercise
program priorities, and submitting
exercise nominations necessary to
validate national preparedness
capabilities.
The HSEEP After Action
Improvement Plan will now be
submitted from Indian Tribal
governments and an additional annual
form will be required in addition to the
one form per quarter requirement
resulting in a small increase in the
burden hours due to an increase in the
number of reports estimated to be
submitted.
