Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The emergency response plan should include a method to recognize when a disaster is imminent or occurring, policies and procedures as well as equipment and personnel to handle disasters, policies and procedures that operationalize actual activities during the disaster, and policies and procedures describing what will occur immediately after the disaster. A method to predict when a disaster will occur is not necessary or feasible.
