System (NIMS), and the National Response Framework (NRF).
Activities implemented under SHSP must support terrorism preparedness by building or
enhancing capabilities that relate to the prevention of, protection from, or response to, and
recovery from terrorism. Many capabilities which support terrorism preparedness
simultaneously support preparedness for other hazards.
Based upon ongoing intelligence analysis, extensive security reviews, and Congressional
direction, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security focuses the bulk of its available
grant dollars on a risk-based investment using a model consisting of three principal
variables: threat - the likelihood of an attack occurring; vulnerability - the relative
exposure to an attack; and consequence - the expected impact of an attack. The total
Homeland Security Grant Program allocation provided to the County by the federal
Department of Homeland Security and sub-granted through the State of California is
$2,179,940.
The attached Resolution is to comply with specific State of California requirements for
Governing Body authorization.
