disaster declaration
Définition
- The emergency management profession has a saying: “All disasters are local.” Although this is accurate for those experiencing the effects of an incident, it does not account for the political process involved in having an incident be declared a “disaster.” Only the president of the United States can invoke that status over a national incident. A complex formal process has to take place involving local, tribal, state, and regional emergency management in order to get that language assigned.
