The National Incident Management System (NIMS) builds on the long-used Incident Command System and the principles of unified command. NIMS is mandated by Homeland Security Presidential Directive 5 and many federal grants and other funding sources that require compliance. Public safety officials objected to the development and implementation of NIMS as being inflexible. Despite the availability of expertise and experience, NIMS was developed in a top-down manner, centrally coordinated by DHS. Do you support the way NIMS was developed? Should it be revisited? Do you support the mandatory implementation of NIMS? Why or why not?
