Abstract

This working group was designed to provide an environment for participants to: (1) Determine efficacy of application of a Multi-Agency Coordination System (MACS)/Multi-Agency Coordination Group (MACG) in the State of Colorado, and (2) Establish a structure to work through requirements to establish and manage a MACG. The meeting was supported by FEMA Region VIII and facilitated by Chuck Mills, President, Emergency Management Services, International. Mr. Mills provided an academic overview of the National Incident Management System (NIMS) Incident Command System (ICS) and MACS; including specifically roles and responsibilities of both Area Command and a MACG, influences affecting response and recovery operations, and how to determine the most appropriate organizations to establish following a large incident.
