Is your planning process and security model an
optimized and workable long term solution?
Common challenges and Issues:
- What models and methods are you using to assess critical infrastructure and community risk?
- How do you aligning risk and community readiness between community approaches and DHS models?
- No comprehensive method of integrating Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) funding, federal planning guidance, and local level implementation (i.e. Port
- Security, Critical Infrastructure Protection).

- Coordination issues between top- down federal planning versus horizontal
(standard) community preparedness
