Emergency Justfication: This emergency authorization of the new collection is necessary for States to meet Congressional mandate, expressed in the Post Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act of 2006 (PKEMRA), to assess annual State capability levels, describe target capability levels, and to assess annual resources needed to achieve the preparedness priorities established under PKEMRA.
