The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is coordinating the final review of the National Incident Management System (NIMS). Modifications since the last public comment period include language changes resulting from the recent release of the National Response Framework (NRF). The draft of the NIMS document is available online at www.regulations.gov, Docket ID FEMA2008-0008.
The last national comment period will end June 2. All submissions must include the agency name and docket ID. Comments can be submitted by the following methods:
- Federal eRulemaking Portal at www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments.
- E-mail to FEMA-POLICY@dhs.gov. Include Docket in the subject line of the message.
- Fax to 866-466-5370.
- Mail/Hand Delivery to Regulation & Policy Team, Office of Chief Counsel, Federal Emergency Management Agency, Room 835, 500 C Street, SW., Washington, DC 20472.
Because a large response is expected, FEMA requests comments be submitted using the form available www.regulations.gov. Regardless of the submission method, all comments and material will be posted without change to the federal eRulemaking portal and personal information provided.
