The strategy was developed in <br />accordance with Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) Program <br />guidelines. Assessment data was collected from 10 disciplines (law <br />enforcement, emergency medical services, emergency management, <br />fire services, hazardous materials, public works, governmental <br />administration. public safety communications. health care. and public <br />health) in 36 jurisdictions throughout San Diego County (18 cities, 17 <br />fire districts, and the County itself representing unincorporated areas). <br />These data were consolidated, analyzed. and supplemented with <br />additional data to develop a clear understanding of current Urban Area <br />capabilities, and to characterize goals for specific capabilities required <br />to reduce risks and achieve an effective response to potential acts of <br />terrorism involving weapons of mass destruction (WMD). The <br />assessment results provide the analytical bridge for cross-jurisdictional <br />goals, objectives. implementation steps. and metrics that are the <br />foundation of the SDUA Strategy. Project work completed by URS <br />included: <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Facilitating a steering committee with stakeholder <br />representatives in the region <br /> <br />Developing a risk profile for the San Diego urban area <br />including an evaluation of San Diego Area potential targets, <br />CBRNE sites, critical infrastructure and other potential targets <br /> <br />Developing and ranking WMD scenarios and a vulnerability <br />assessment <br /> <br />'URS <br /> <br /> <br />28 <br />
