National Response Coordination Center
In advance of a hurricane, FEMA has the authority and capability to pre-position response teams and disaster supplies close to the projected impact area and will activate the National Response Coordination Center (NRCC). The NRCC is the multi-agency center based at FEMA Headquarters in Washington, D.C., that provides overall coordination of the Federal response and supports emergency management program implementation. The NRCC brings together Emergency Support Function (ESF) Federal departments and agencies to assist in the preparations for and response to disasters and issuance of mission assignments for disaster support.
