Emergency Preparedness and Response

This committee is responsible for the coordination of emergency preparedness, security, and employee safety coordination among the Alamo Federal agencies.  There is one sub-group that helps this committee complete its mission:

The Regional COOP Working Group assists with the planning of annual interagency emergency exercises as well as provides assistance and up-to-date information for agency COOP plans. The COOP Working Group also ensures agencies have adequate Occupant Emergency Plans and assists with communications plans for emergency communication among federal agencies and with state and local officials.

If you would like more information about this committee or would like to become a member, please contact the Alamo FEB office at (210)565-1860.
