Prologue

Key Planning Factors and Considerations for Response to and Recovery from a Chemical Incident is written for response and recovery planners at the regional, state, local, tribal, and territorial levels. A coordinated response and recovery effort will include all levels of government in addition to the private sector, non-governmental organizations, and, potentially, international partners: Planning for a chemical incident requires additional considerations beyond all-hazards preparedness planning, so this document includes strategic and operational issues for consideration when developing response and recovery plans for a chemical incident.
