HOMELAND SECURITY AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT

| |
The Harris County Office of Homeland Security and
Emergency Management is nationally recognized for its coordinated approach
to emergency preparedness
and response. As director of Homeland Security and Emergency Management,
County Judge Ed Emmett collaborates with law enforcement, emergency managers,
and medical personnel throughout the region to coordinate responses to
area disasters – whether they are natural or manmade.
In 2006, Homeland Security and Emergency Management
participated in four major homeland security exercises with local, state,
and federal
agencies. In addition, 16 local drills tested regional agencies, our
communications capability, and ability to respond various disaster scenarios.
