U.S.C. 101 et seq., is responsible for
ensuring that activities funded by the

Statewide Communication
Interoperability Plan (SCIP) for that
State required by section 7303(f) of the

Prevention Act of 2004 (6 U.S.C. 194(f)).
Further, under the Implementing
Recommendations of the 9/11

under the IECGP must annually submit
to the Director of OEC a report on the
progress of the State in implementing its
SCIP and on achieving interoperability
at the city, county, regional, State, and
interstate levels. OEC is then required to
make these reports publicly available (6
U.S.C 579(m)). The SCIP
Implementation Report Form is
designed to meet these statutory
requirements. SCIP Implementation
Reports will be submitted electronically.
