Title:
Emergency Preparedness Liaison Officer Command and Control Alignment

STOAbstractExternal:
To meet Department of Defense requirement to support civilian authorities when incident response requirements exceed local authorities? abilities, the Services have established Emergency Preparedness Liaison Officer (EPLO) authorizations across the country. Personnel selected to serve as EPLOs work with US Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) in planning for, and implementing, that assistance. Recognizing that proper organizational alignment and reporting chains are a vital component in meeting strategic goals, the Services and USNORTHCOM are continuing to evaluate current organizational alignment and command and control reporting chains for these officers both before and during an incident response. This project provides historical background on the US sensitivities to federal forces being employed within the States, examines the current alignment, reviews Joint doctrine and then makes a recommendation on how to organize the EPLOs to best meet USNORTHCOM requirements.
