NIMS, National Incident Management System, is the national standardized approach to incident management that is equally appropriate for all jurisdictional levels including local, state, and federal, and is functional for all hazards. This system mainly started to develop after the incident of 9/11. The basis for the development of NIMS was the document called HSPD-7 which established a broad range of specific responsibilities for the DHS. There are five main components of NIMS; it includes…
