<br />National Incident Management <br />System Resolution <br />July 5, 2005 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />In 1996, the City of Santa Ana adopted the statewide Standardized Emergency <br />Management System (SEMS), which provides for a coordinated approach to <br />emergency preparedness, response, and recovery. The NIMS was built on the <br />foundation of the successes found through the SEMS and the Incident Command <br />System. Thus, the components involved in the NIMS are already an integral <br />part of the system the City currently uses for emergency management <br />activities. <br /> <br />In order to be in compliance with Homeland Security regulations, it is <br />necessary to adopt the NIMS. In additional, approval of the recommended <br />action is required in order to maintain the City's eligibility to receive <br />federal grant funding related to emergency management and homeland <br />security. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br /> <br />There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. <br /> <br />" ),. ., L J\t~- <br />pau11 M.
