  5. Key Components of Disaster Recovery Business Alliances 1. They are community-based and community-driven; 2. They involve strong public/private sector collaboration; 3. They are based upon a hazard and risk assessment; 4. They recognize the importance of land use planning and building codes as mitigation tools; 5. They recognize the role of incentives; and 6. They integrate professional training opportunities, public awareness and education for all sectors of the community into the whole process.

  6. Critical Infrastructure Assurance Office Major Initiatives • Coordinate and implement the national strategy; • Assess the U.S. Government's own risk exposure and dependencies on critical infrastructure: • Raise awareness and educate public understanding and participation in critical infrastructure protection efforts; and 4. Coordinate legislative and public affairs to integrate infrastructure assurance objectives into the public and private sectors.

  7. NRF Roles for the Private Sector

  8. NRF Essential Private Sector Responsibilities • Planning for the protection of employees, infrastructure, and facilities. • Planning for the protection of information and the continuity of business operations. •  Planning for responding to and recovering from incidents that impact their own infrastructure and facilities. •  Collaborating with emergency management personnel before an incident occurs to ascertain what assistance may be necessary and how they can help. • Developing and exercising emergency plans before an incident occurs. • Where appropriate, establishing mutual aid and assistance agreements to provide specific response capabilities. • Providing assistance (including volunteers) to support local emergency management and public awareness during response and throughout the recovery process.

  9. NIPP Government Assistance to the Private Sector • Providing owners and operators timely, analytical, accu­rate, and useful information on threats to CI/KR;  • Ensuring industry is engaged as early as possible in the development of initiatives and policies related to NIPP implementation and, as needed, revision of the NIPP Base Plan; • Ensuring industry is engaged as early as possible in the development and revision of the SSPs and in planning and other CI/KR protection initiatives; • Articulating to corporate leaders, through the use of public platforms and private communications, both the business and national security benefits of investing in security measures that exceed their business case;  • Creating an environment that encourages and supports incentives for companies to voluntarily adopt widely accepted, sound security practices; • Working with industry to develop and clearly prioritize key missions and enable their protection and/or restoration; • Providing support for research needed to enhance future CI/KR protection efforts; • Developing the resources to engage in cross-sector interde­pendency studies, through exercises, symposiums, training sessions, and computer modeling, that result in guided decision support for business continuity planning; and • Enabling time-sensitive information sharing and restora­tion and recovery support to priority CI/KR facilities and services during incidents in accordance with the provisions of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act.

  10. BENS Recommendations 1 Public-private collaboration, to plan, train, exercise, implement and evaluate joint actions required to facilitate effective communication, decision-making and execution. 1. Creating new ways to institutionalize public-private collaboration at the state and major metropolitan area levels;  2. Facilitating greater public-private collaboration at the regional and federal levels; and 3. Building a “Business Emergency Management Assistance Compact (BEMAC)” structure.

  11. BENS Recommendations 2 Surge capacity for private-sector goods and services, and the capabilities resident in private sector supply chains to manage the delivery of goods and services (whether pro bono or contracted) to and within disaster areas. 1. Improving government emergency-purchasing protocols; 2. Revising deficient donations management systems; and 3. Modernizing logistics processes across the board.

  12. BENS Recommendations 3 The legal & regulatory environment, which can help or dramatically hinder efficient delivery of private-sector support during a disaster. 1. Enact a nationwide body of “disaster law”; 2. Modify the Stafford Act2 to include the private sector; and 3. Hold hearings to determine which Task Force recommendations can be implemented under existing law and which require new legislation.
