INTRODUCTION

In 2003, the Nevada Legislature created the Nevada Commission on Homeland Security in response to the terror attacks against the United States on September 11, 2001. As described in Chapter 239C of the Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS 239C), the Nevada Commission on Homeland Security (Commission) is tasked with several responsibilities directed toward making recommendations to the Governor, the Legislature, local governments, private business, and citizens about actions and measures that may be taken to protect the citizens and visitors to this State from potential acts of terrorism and related emergencies. The duties of the Commission include:

Making recommendations to the Governor, Legislature, State agencies, local governments, businesses, and private citizens about actions to be taken to protect against terrorism;

Making recommendations, through the Division of Emergency Management, on the use of money received by the State from homeland security grants or related programs;

Proposing goals and programs to counteract acts of terrorism;

Ensuring the safety of Nevada’s residents and the critical infrastructures of the State by identifying the susceptibility of those infrastructures to terrorist acts;

Examining the use and deployment of response agencies;

Reviewing the interoperability of the State’s communications systems and the efficacy of emergency (911) telephone systems, including establishment of a State plan for the compatibility and interoperability of the State’s information and communication systems for response agencies and advising the Governor about such systems with particular emphasis on public safety radio systems;

Coordinating between government agencies to avoid duplication; and

Submission of an annual briefing to the Governor on the assessment of the State’s preparedness, including an assessment of response plans and vulnerability assessments of utilities, and public and private entities.

To summarize, the Commission has the responsibility to advise the Governor and the Legislature on any and all means that will improve the safety and security of the State, our residents and visitors.

To meet this responsibility, the Commission continues its close partnership with the Nevada Department of Public Safety, Division of Emergency Management and Office of Homeland Security. The resulting cooperation has allowed the Commission to move forward in its defined duties that are outlined in the following pages of this report.

OVERVIEW AND COMMISSION ACTIVITIES REPORT

January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015

The Nevada Commission on Homeland Security (Commission) continued to support funding of risk-based counter-terrorism and public safety programs and projects in Nevada. The overall amount of federal homeland security grant funding available to Nevada to address preparedness and prevention activities increased in Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2015 from the prior year. In FFY 2015, Nevada received a total of $6,734,500 in Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) funds representing an increase of 43% over HSGP funds received in FFY 2014. Nevada’s FFY 2015 HSGP award included $3,734,500 allocated to the State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) in addition to $3,000,000 awarded to the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI). The Commission met in regular session five times in 2015.1 Throughout this series of meetings, the Commission heard reports and briefings from local, state, and federal government officials including status updates on current HSGP funded projects and direction to stakeholders on efforts to address local and statewide preparedness efforts. The Commission held no closed meetings in 2015. On February 13, 2015, the Commission received an update on the status of the HSGP including a review of FFY 2014 Commission priorities, HSGP investments, and summary results from the State Preparedness Report (SPR) and the Threat and Hazard Identification Risk Assessment (THIRA) for Nevada. As a result, the Commission was tasked to consider the information presented to develop its ranking of priorities for FFY 2015, with the results of those rankings to be presented at the March 6, 2015 Commission meeting. The Department of Homeland Security’s Assistant Secretary for Cyber Security, Dr. Andy Ozment, briefed the Commission with focus on minimizing cyber threats in Nevada including criminal, hacking, espionage, and destructive attacks. Emphasis was placed on Nevada’s success in mitigating cyber-risk through its efforts in working with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Homeland Security Advisor (HSA), and chief information officers. Additionally, private industry representatives briefed the Commission as it relates to cyber security risks, trends, and strategies to mitigate risk. Lastly, Governor Sandoval welcomed three new voting members to the Commission including Sheriff Joseph Lombardo, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD), Sheriff Chuck Allen, Washoe County Sheriff’s Department, and Chief Gregory Cassell, Clark County Fire Department. 1 The Commission met on February 13, March 6, May 15, August 28, and December 2, 2015.

On March 6, 2015, the Commission unanimously approved three HSGP project requests totaling $220,762.52 encompassing an array of reobligation, deobligation, and project change requests to address Nevada’s preparedness level. The Commission set project and capabilities priorities for the HSGP FFY 2015 funding allocation in line with federal grant guidance and Presidential Policy Directive 8 (PPD-8) which describes the Nation’s approach to preparing for threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk to the security of the United States. The objective of PPD-8 is to facilitate an integrated, all-of-nation risk informed, capabilities based approach to preparedness. This is done through a shared responsibility throughout all levels of government, including the private sector, nonprofits, and individual citizens. PPD-8 depends on close involvement of state and local government and stakeholders to work with the federal government to strengthen the security and resilience of the United States through systematic preparation for the threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk to the security of the Nation, including acts of terrorism, cyber-attacks, pandemics, and catastrophic natural disasters. Based on this federal model, the Commission was presented a detailed overview of the Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP), its timelines, and historical ranking data by the Chief of the Nevada Division of Emergency Management and Homeland Security (NDEM/HS). The primary sources of information assisting in this ranking of priorities came from the State Preparedness Report (SPR), which is an annual self-assessment of state preparedness capabilities. Using the SPR data, and analyzing the perceived gaps, risks, and needs relative to the core capabilities, the Commission established five priorities for the Nevada Homeland Security Working Group (HSWG) to use in the identification of eligible projects for FFY 2015 HSGP funding. The five priorities, ranked highest to lowest, are:

On May 15, 2015, the Commission used the established priorities set at the previous meeting in addition to the advisory approval of the Commission’s Finance Committee to vote on approving 22 SHSP funded projects. In addition to the approved UASI projects as presented by the Urban Area Working Group (UAWG), this allowed the State Administrative Agency (SAA) to submit the Nevada HSGP application to DHS representing combined HSGP Investment Justifications (IJ) totaling $6,397,775. The funded investments are as follows: (See Appendix C for more detail)

On August 28, 2015, the Commission received a briefing on the HSGP status for FFY2015 noting the 22 SHSP and 11 UASI project allocations were approved by DHS on July 28, 2015, and officially accepted on August 19, 2015, allowing sub-grantee awards to be mailed out by August 31, 2015. The period between the release of grant guidance and award to sub-grantees was the quickest turnaround to date by the NDEM/HS proving beneficial to communities receiving the monetary award. Considerable discussion ensued regarding the availability of threat-based funding for communities in Nevada. The Commission was briefed on recent changes regarding the Office of Safe and Respectful Learning Environment, Senate Bill 205, and school emergency capabilities. In providing this briefing, Dale Erquiaga, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, emphasized the necessity of addressing physical and cyber bullying in schools. Funding has been approved to enhance social-worker and behavioral health programs available to the school system in addition to the new Safe To Tell program that will work with private call centers and law enforcement to handle tips or complaints. The goal of these new initiatives is to provide a national model for dealing with the bullying threat in Nevada. The Commission welcomed Chief Caleb Cage, NDEM/HS as its newest member. On December 2, 2015, The Commission unanimously approved HSGP Project NCHS-116 for a mobile camera platform and fueling trailer for the LVMPD totaling $63,271. Overviews of the FFY2014 and FFY2015 HSGP and UASI grant program financials in addition to the re-established Nevada Homeland Security Working Group (HSWG) were presented as well as a thorough discussion on the local, county, city, state, and federal response to events that transpired due to the Beatty Industrial Fire. Emphasis was placed on the significant coordinated response effort for that incident. The Commission heard several presentations including a presentation from Catholic Charities of Southern Nevada to address Nevada’s State Refugee Program. Considerable discussion revolved around success stories of refugees who are part of that program, in addition to significant discussion over concern regarding the vetting process for incoming refugees. Additionally, the Commission was briefed on the current threat environment by Anthony Frangiopane, Director, Department of Homeland Security’s Southwest Region Field Operations. Director Frangiopane emphasized efforts undertaken by DHS to ensure the nation is secure against violent extremism in both individual and group-style attacks. Considerable discussion ensued regarding Nevada’s Special Event Assessment Ratings in addition to the federal tracking and vetting processes for potential terrorist activities. A capabilities and activities briefing was provided by both the Nevada Threat and Analysis Center and the Southern Nevada Counter Terrorism Center emphasizing the effectiveness of blending capabilities from Nevada’s fusion centers, intelligence centers, and law enforcement to keep Nevadans and visitors safe. Additional updates were provided on the activities of the Urban Area Working Group and preparations for the 2015 New Year’s Eve events in Las Vegas. Lastly, the Commission was presented an overview of the upcoming Vigilant Guard 2017 exercise that will test policy and capability shortfalls while working through a series of escalating earthquake events in southern Nevada and California.

The Commission welcomed eight new members in 2015 including Nevada Lieutenant Governor Mark Hutchison, Chief Caleb Cage, NDEM/HS, Sheriff Joseph Lombardo, LVMPD, Sheriff Chuck Allen, Washoe County Sheriff’s Department, Chief Gregory Cassell, Clark County Fire Department, and Lisa Christensen, Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California. At the request of the Inter-Tribal Council of Nevada (ITCN), Ms. Christensen replaced former Commissioner Alfreida Jake. The Legislative seats were reappointed and filled by Senator Michael Roberson and Assemblyman Derek Armstrong pursuant to NRS 239C.120 (4) and (5). The Commission also saw the resignation of four of its members including Chief Christopher Smith, NDEM/HS, Senator Pat Spearman, Nevada Senate, Dr. Warren Gilbert, ARC Health and Wellness, and Alfreida Jake, Elko Band and Te-Moak Tribal Emergency Manager. The Commission maintains a website with current and past meeting dates, agendas, and meeting minutes. The website can be accessed via http://dem.nv.gov/DEM/DEM_Public_Meeting_Information/. The Commission continues its service to the people of Nevada though its Vision and Mission Statements to provide “A safe Nevada for its citizens and visitors free from risks, vulnerabilities, and threats,” and “To advise the Governor on actions, measures and funding relating to homeland security for the State of Nevada.”

COMMITTEE ACTIVITIES REPORT

This section of the Annual Report of Governor summarizes the activities of the committees directly under the Commission (Critical Infrastructure Committee (CIC), Nevada Critical Infrastructure Protection Plan Subcommittee (NCIPP), Cyber Security Committee, Finance Committee, Legislative and Bylaws Committee, and State Homeland Security Strategy (SHSS) Advisory Committee. Additionally, it includes the Governor’s Executive Order Committees that advise and make recommendations to the Commission (The Nevada Homeland Security Working Group, the Nevada Public Safety Communications Committee (NPSCC), NPSCC Statewide 911 Coordinator Committee, and the State Citizen Corps Council). The last section summarizes the health preparedness activities of the Nevada Health Division and the Nevada Hospital Association. The agendas for all scheduled public meetings of the Commission and its Committees are located in Appendix D.

CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE COMMITTEE (CIC)

The Critical Infrastructure Committee (CIC) is tasked with ensuring that the critical infrastructure assets of the State of Nevada are identified, properly cataloged, and protected in order to assist in decreasing any compromise of the critical infrastructure system that could potentially have a debilitating impact on the state either directly, through interdependency, or cascading effects from acts of terror or natural hazards. The CIC conducts reviews of federal Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) guidance and programs to ensure they are in line with state and local strategies. The Committee reports to the Commission on the critical infrastructure (CI) programs within Nevada and how well these programs correlate with DHS guidance and the Commission’s intent. Additionally, the CIC conducts periodic reviews of state and federal law to identify gaps and obstacles affecting CI protection efforts and makes recommend changes in state or local law to the Commission as appropriate. The CIC met on one occasion in 2015.2 On August 13, 2015, the CIC met to discuss committee representation to bolster sector-specific membership and to review the draft of the Nevada Critical Infrastructure Protection Plan. Additional updates were provided on the State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial Government Coordinating Council emphasizing the need for more Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Region IX representation in addition to the current Regional Resiliency Assessment Program activities with emphasis on future project nominations to the Department of Homeland Security. 2 The CIC met on August 13, 2015.

8

Membership for the CIC changed throughout 2015 with the resignation of Nicole Hart, LVMPD.

NEVADA CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROTECTION PLAN (NCIPP) SUBCOMMITTEE The National Infrastructure Protection Plan (NIPP) sets forth a broad framework in which critical infrastructure can be identified, and plans can be developed ensuring that such infrastructure is protected. As part of that strategy to manage risk as part of the overall framework protecting the resiliency of the nation’s critical infrastructure and key resources, the NIPP recognized key roles that states must play in the identification and securing of critical infrastructure within their own borders. Building on this framework, the NCIPP Subcommittee, as a subcommittee under the CIC, is tasked to provide a roadmap for the State of Nevada, local government, and the private sector to ensure the safety and security of critical infrastructure and key resources vital to Nevada. The NCIPP did not meet in 2015. Membership for the NCIPP changed with the resignation of Chief Christopher Smith, NDEM/HS, and Nicole Hart, LVMPD.

LEGISLATIVE AND BYLAWS COMMITTEE The Legislative and Bylaws Committee did not meet in 2015.

10

STATE HOMELAND SECURITY STRATEGY ADVISORY COMMITTEE (SHSS)

The objective of the State Homeland Security Strategy (SHSS) Committee is to define the SHSS to guide and direct all activities that propose the use of federal homeland security grant dollars so that they fall within this single, unified set of guidelines. These guidelines are derivative of and reflect the priories set forth by the Commission for funding prevention and protection of project requests through the Homeland Security Grant Program. The SHSS document is a guideline addressing terrorism and all other critical hazards from a well-rounded approach that considers every aspect of a disaster from prevention, to mitigation, response and recovery. The federal DHS uses this document along with the grant Investment Justification as a measure for how the state, though its sub-grantees, commit to the use of federal homeland security grant funds. The SHSS is no longer a requirement of the federal Homeland Security Grant Program. In 2015, the SHSS Committee did not meet. Membership for the SHSS Committee changed in 2015, with the resignations of Chief Christopher Smith, NDEM/HS. No new membership was added to the Committee.

EXECUTIVE ORDER COMMITTEES

NEVADA HOMELAND SECURITY WORKING GROUP (HSWG)

The Nevada Homeland Security Working Group (HSWG) was created by Executive Order on March 3, 2008 and amended by Executive Order 2011-31 on December 15, 2011. Executive Order 2011-31 expired on June 30, 2015, and the HSWG is re-established under Executive Order 2015-32. The HSWG met twice during 2015. The meetings were held on April 14, 2015, and April 28, 2015. Both meetings were video conferenced between Las Vegas and Carson City. The HSWG membership comprises not more than 35 voting members as stipulated in Executive Order 2015-32. In 2015, 30 voting members were appointed to the HSWG, along with the Chief of the Division of Emergency Management (State Administrative Agent) and the Urban Area Administrator as non-voting members and co-chairs of the working group. The role of the HSWG is to bring together subject matter experts from state agencies, law enforcement, tribal representatives, first responder organizations, and local government to participate in an open and collaborative vetting process to select projects eligible for receiving State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) funding for the current FFY. The HSWG makes project-funding recommendations to the Finance Committee of the Nevada Commission on Homeland Security. The Finance Committee reviews the project recommendations and after consideration passes the final project recommendations

11

to the Homeland Security Commission for final consideration and approval. The Commission met on May 15, 2015 and approved the HSWG recommendations with the concurrent recommendation of the Finance Committee. The HSWG successfully carried out its duties for 2015. The HSWG met on April 14, 2015 after the release of the FFY 2015 Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) guidance and federally established grant allocation for Nevada. Nevada was allocated $3,734,000 in the State Homeland Security Program (SHSP), with an additional $3,000,000 awarded to the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) (Note: the HSWG only reviews and recommends projects

receiving SHSGP funds, the UASI has a separate working group for the Urban Area). At the first meeting, 33 projects totaling $9,290,101 in SHSP and UASI funding were requested by project managers representing several state, local government, and tribal entities. At the end of the meeting, the project presenters were asked to make voluntary cuts or to withdraw projects that did not need FFY 2015 funding. The following are the items discussed at the April 14, 2015 HSWG meeting:

Review and discussion of the Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) guidance, award status, and federal application timelines and deadlines.

Overview of the HSWG process including project proposals, requirements for line item detailed budgets and investment justifications, and the Nevada Commission on Homeland Security (NCHS) priorities.

Review and discussion of the HSGP guidelines for both current and historical issues including current HSGP grant balances, grant de-obligations, grant compliance, timely reporting, extensions, and sub-grantee monitoring pertaining to the use of HSGP funds.

Briefing on the Urban Area Working Group meeting held April 13, 2015 with an update on funding breakouts for UASI projects.

Presentation, review, and discussion of the HSGP project proposals for FY 2015 including the identification of proposal duplication, possible project mergers, grant compliance, and NCHS priorities.

Review of the HSGP Investment Justification (IJ) process including IJ groupings, input, quality, associated deadlines, and identification of IJ leads to write final IJ for the purpose of submitting the final Department of Homeland Security (DHS) grant application.

Project proposal funding discussion summarizing the total grant funding requested and next steps in the HSGP process including modification submissions and detailed budgets with narrative.

The HSWG met for a second and final time on April 28, 2015. At this meeting, the voting members heard from project managers, some who had voluntarily reduced their request or completely withdrew their project. After hearing the project presentations, each voting member rank prioritized the projects and the results were read into the record. Based on the rank prioritized projects, the voting members selected 22 statewide projects staying within the $6,397,775 SHSP budget allotment. Eight additional

12

UASI projects were recommended for funding by the UAWG. The HSWG recommended that these projects be presented at the May 11, 2015 Finance Committee meeting.

The following are the items discussed at the April 28, 2015 HSWG meeting:

Review and discussion on the UAWG meeting held on April 27, 2015.

Review and discussion on project proposal modifications and budgets allowing opportunity the body to ask questions of applicants focusing on modifications or reductions in budgets.

Discussion and ranking of HSGP proposals and funding requests including individual HSWG members ranking all proposals to create a prioritized list to then be evaluated by the body relative to available funding.

Final vote on the HSWG recommendation to accept the FFY 2015 Recommended Project and Funding List with the direction to the SAA to submit to the Finance Committee.

Review and discussion of the next steps in the HSGP process including the submission of the prioritized HSGP project list to the Finance Committee, then to NCHS, and ultimately the application being sent to the Department of Homeland Security.

Upon Executive Order 2014-01 on January 8, 2014, Governor Brian Sandoval established the creation of the Nevada Public Safety Communications Committee (NPSCC) with the purpose of serving as advisor to the Commission on Homeland Security, the SAA, and the Statewide 911 Coordinator regarding public safety communication and interoperability. The NPSCC will serve as the governance board for the State and Local Implementation Grant Program (SLIGP).

The NPSCC membership consists of a total of 15 voting members and 3 non-voting members as stipulated in Executive Order 2014-1. Nonvoting members consist of the Chief of Emergency Management (State Administrative Agent, SAA), the Statewide Interoperability Coordinator (SWIC), as well as a representative from the Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency, or First Responder Network Authority. The NPSCC met three times in 2015.4 On January 7, 2015, the NPSCC hosted the Nevada FirstNet State Consultation that is part of the State and Local Implementation Grant Program (SLIGP) to provide an opportunity for Nevada to interact with federal representatives from FirstNet regarding Public Safety wireless broadband outreach and governance as well as coverage needs within the state. Included in the discussion were three key events including the Reno Championship Air Races disaster, Burning Man, and New Year’s Eve celebrations in Las Vegas. 4The NPSCC met on January 7, June 15, and September 15, 2015.

13

On June 15, 2015, the NPSCC was briefed with alternative broadband solutions for public safety and reviewed key topics from the FirstNet State Consultation held earlier in the year. A thorough report was given by the Statewide Interoperability Coordinator (SWIC) on interoperability activities affecting Nevada with a request to recommend implementation of the Nevada Core System (NCORE) channels in radios and dispatch facilities. Additional updates were received on the Statewide Communications Interoperability Plan (SCIP), and progress on the Southern Nevada Area Communications Council (SNACC) move to the Open Radio Standard of Project 25 Phase I for public safety. Additionally, the Committee voted to create two subcommittees; the NPSCC Grant Subcommittee and the NPSCC Statewide 911 Coordinator Committee to address ongoing interoperability issues. On September 15, 2015, the NPSCC received an update from The Digital Decision, contractor for SLIGP regarding the status of data collection for Nevada with emphasis on pushing collection requests out to as many people as possible. The Committee received an update on the SNACC initiative to move to Project 25 Phase I radio system specifications. To date, it was reported that 25% of subscriber radios had been updated and reprogrammed. Approximately 2,000 radios require replacement, and agencies are working with vendors to accomplish that task. All dispatch centers except one are updated and operational. The remaining center will be operational after the first of the year. Additional reports were shared with the Committee including a report from the NPSCC Statewide 911 Coordinator Subcommittee on its efforts to use best examples in crafting legislative language for the position. NCORE and Nevada Shared Radio Systems reports were also provided to the Committee.

The NPSCC membership changed in 2015 with the resignations of David Gustafson, Chief Information Officer, State of Nevada, Chief Christopher Smith, NDEM/HS, George Molnar, Statewide Interoperability Coordinator, and Bill Welch, President and Chief Executive Officer, Nevada Hospital Association. New Membership included Chief Cage, NDEM/HS.

NPSCC GRANTS SUBCOMMITTEE The NPSCC Grants Subcommittee did not meet in 2015.

NPSCC STATEWIDE 911 COORDINATOR SUBCOMMITTEE The NPSCC Statewide 911 Coordinator Subcommittee is tasked with the development of the position-specific job functions, statewide requirements for such a position, support staff required, and identifying funding sources to create and maintain the position. The Subcommittee will advise the NPSCC on its recommendation for the position, and if approved, the position recommendation will move to the Commission for final consideration. On August 25, 2015, the NPSCC Statewide 911 Coordinator Subcommittee (911 Coordinator Subcommittee) met to discuss the purpose of the Subcommittee, the current 911 program status in the state, and explored different methods of funding the coordinator position. Emphasis was placed on using best practices from other states that have such a position in addition to setting up a regular meeting schedule with timeline deliverables from Subcommittee members.

14

On September 24, 2015, the 911 Coordinator Subcommittee met to establish project deadlines for deliverables allowing the Governor to bring the request to the Nevada Legislature. It was determined that a recommendation needs to go to the Governor by October 1, 2016, and therefore the Subcommittee’s work requires completion in July 2016 to allow time for review by the NPSCC. An outline was developed to include the current status of 911 in Nevada, the future of Next-Gen 911 and what it means to Nevada, why a Statewide 911 Coordinator is required, the roles and responsibilities of the Coordinator, how to fund the Coordinator position, and lastly how to address legislative issues. On October 20, 2015, the 911 Coordinator Subcommittee members presented task assignments on the outlined items from the September 24, 2015, meeting. A spreadsheet was developed to catalog the 911 capability in the state, be it basic, enhanced, or moving toward Next-Gen 911. An executive summary is being prepared on the justification for a 911 Coordinator, in addition to comparison tables of what other states are currently doing with their programs. Considerable discussion was had on funding sources and Voice-Over Internet Protocol issues. On December 14, 2015, the 911 Coordinator Subcommittee members met for a final time on updates to member assignments.

NEVADA STATE CITIZEN CORPS PROGRAM

The State Citizen Corps Council (the State Council) was created by Executive Order on February 25, 2009 and amended by Executive Order 2011-06 on November 28, 2011. The current Executive Order expired June 30. 2015. The State Council unifies all the local Citizen Corps Councils into a coordinated statewide organization with a common goal to sustain and improve volunteer activities in the State of Nevada and to provide new and innovative ways to deliver important training to citizen volunteers. The NDEM/HS provides administrative support to the State Council along with an agency program manager as the elected Chair to the Council.

Following the tragic events that occurred on September 11, 2001, state and local government officials have increased opportunities for citizens to become an integral part of protecting the homeland and supporting the local first responders. A key component to ensuring a more secure and safer homeland consists of preparedness, training, and citizen involvement in supporting first responders. In January 2002, the President of the United States launched Citizen Corps, to capture the spirit of service that emerged throughout our communities following the terrorist attacks. The mission of Citizen Corps is to harness the power of every individual through education, training, and volunteer service to make communities safer, stronger, and better prepared to respond to the threats of terrorism, crime, public health issues, and disasters of all kinds.

15

Although the Citizen Corps Program (CCP) is no longer a separate grant program (the line item funding was discontinued in FFY 2012), it is supportable through the State Homeland Security Grant Program (SHGP). Under the direction of the Governor’s Executive Order, the State Citizen Corps Council’s role is to “identify opportunities for local, state, and federal organizations to collaborate to accomplish the primary objectives of Citizen Corps.” Additionally the Council shall “engage in ongoing discussions to develop and support local Citizen Corps Councils and advance the national mission of Citizen Corps across the State.” The State Council has divided Nevada into 4 geographic regions for the purpose of establishing a statewide Citizen Corps Program. The geographic regions are:

Northern Region: Carson City, Churchill, Douglas, Lyon, Mineral, Pershing, Storey, Washoe North East Region: Elko, Eureka, Humboldt, Lander, White Pine Southern Region: Clark, Esmeralda, Lincoln, Nye Tribal Lands

Within these regions are federally recognized Citizen Corps Councils:

State of Nevada’s Citizen Corps Council; The Nevada Statewide Tribal Council; The Washoe County LEPC and Citizen Corps Council and, The Las Vegas Urban Area Citizen Corps Council.

In addition to the CCP Councils, Nevada has several federally-recognized Citizen Emergency Response Teams (CERT) in the following cities, counties, and tribal lands: Carson City, Douglas County, Duck Valley Tribe, Duckwater Tribe, Mesquite, Mineral County, Moapa Band of Paiutes, North Lyon County Fire, Northeast Nevada, Reno-Sparks Indian Colony, Southern Nevada, Storey County, Washoe Regional and Washoe Tribe. Primary Goals of the State Citizen Corps Council

An active State Citizen Corps Council chaired by NDEM supporting regional Councils and multiple Citizen Emergency Response Teams registered with the Department of Homeland Security ;

The 2015 Citizen Corps projects reflect a “Whole Community” approach with a focus on Public awareness and Youth Preparedness.

Additional Goals of the Nevada Citizen Corps program include:

Continued public awareness and response training (preparedness) through training and exercises for citizens and volunteers which include prevention techniques and protocols.

16

Procuring the necessary equipment and training materials required by FEMA to meet the standards for public awareness and prevention for all hazards.

Create team leaders in each county/community to expand and enhance the education in the target capabilities for prepared awareness, education and prevention.

Outreach to schools, businesses and local communities through prepared awareness, training and prevention which will assist them in recognizing, preparing for and responding to emergency incidents in their communities and to be deployed throughout the state upon request.

Continue organizing CERT train-the-trainer/program manager courses for Citizen Corps Leaders.

Trainings:

In addition to conducting four CERT Basic Training academies this year, CERT volunteers attended a number of specially focused trainings and skills trainings at each monthly meeting. Volunteers also participated in five drills/exercises in 2015, practicing skills and assisting other agencies.

CERT Academy – The January CERT academy graduated seventeen. Of those, eleven (11) became active volunteers. The April CERT academy graduated twelve. The third quarterly training for community members was held in July, graduating 12 and retaining 10 as volunteers. The last quarterly training in October graduated 10 and retained 4 volunteers. When there is sufficient interest, New Volunteer Orientation trainings occur three to four weeks following the academies, to encourage new volunteer participation and introduce them to CERT Team Leaders and the SMART and CHSC teams.

Drills – CERT volunteers participated in five interagency drills during this period:

UNR Active Assailant Full-Scale Exercise – This exercise tested the University’s response team’s effectiveness to manage an active shooter, bomb threat and hazardous materials release as a combined event, while maintaining the security of students and staff and the continuity of work, studies and research at the University. Twenty-six CERT volunteers were asked to provide perimeter security, directions for staff and students, and limit media movement. One volunteer was tasked as an Observer. Staff, with one volunteer, provided moulage services, creating gunshot wounds on 13 role players and staging them in the event area. Media and many agency observers attended the exercise, with a large number of agencies participating.

20

Incline Village Mill Creek Evacuation Drill - Full-Scale Exercise – This late May drill was designed to enhance regional emergency operational response, including affording first responders and public officials the opportunity to address a full-scale exercise involving neighborhood evacuations and sheltering of citizens and pets. In support of the Exercise and the associated Safety Fair public event, CERT was assigned a number of tasks for which we provided organization, planning, and volunteers. The tasks associated with agency support and the public safety event included:

Crowd assistance/information dissemination at the Safety Fair; Outreach ‘booth’ at the Safety Fair, providing information on emergency preparedness; Traffic management and parking assistance at the approach intersection and parking area

Twenty-three volunteers attended this training. We have trained 46 CERT volunteers in Red Cross Shelter Operations within the past six months, integrating CERT volunteers into the shelter operations in such a manner that allows CERT to perform according to our mission and grant deliverables.

TLOV training - Terrorism Liaison Officer Volunteer (TLOV) training was conducted on March 7. Volunteers are trained and must review and sign a non-disclosure agreement prior to their participation in exercises and/or security assignments of a sensitive nature, whether Confidential Airport Security Testing (CAST) missions or other opportunities under development.

WebEOC – The Washoe County Emergency Operations Manager hosted a 3 days of training on how to utilize the WebEOC program during emergency activations. The CCP Coordinator attended this training, as did several volunteers. The CCP Manager invited VOAD members and conducted WebEOC orientation and training for CERT volunteers at the EOC in May, for 16 volunteers.

Helicopter Landing Zone Safety – The Washoe County Sheriff’s Office provided the training, conducted by Chief Pilot and CFI Deputy Russell. This training allows CERT volunteers to safely provide perimeter security at the helicopter landing zone during emergencies or other events.

Cribbing Train-the-Trainer – A CERT volunteer who is also fire and EMT–trained provided the instruction for this technically advanced cribbing training, to train volunteers to teach the techniques to other volunteers. More than a dozen volunteers completed this training and have since used their skills to train CERT members.

Traffic Safety and Flagging – An experienced WCSO CERT volunteer who has also completed NDOT’s Traffic and Flagging course conducted this training. With the proper equipment now available, these volunteers are capable of assisting in a variety of traffic situations, including assisting at public events or redirecting traffic on highways during emergencies. CERT volunteers from Storey County, Lyon County and Placer County attended this training.

First Aid/CPR/AED – A WCSO CERT volunteer who is a certified instructor conducts this training. With the instruction books and certification cards purchased through grant funds, this valuable training/certification is available to CERT volunteers at no additional cost.

22

Search & Rescue Academy – Although not a regular or required part of CERT training, our relationship with Washoe County Sheriff’s Office SAR program provides an opportunity for CERT volunteers to attend this special training, if they wish to do so. About 16 CERT volunteers attended the SAR academy, which met every Monday evening through all of March and April. They learned a variety of skills, including outdoor survival, map reading and tracking.
