ESF #6 MandateUnder the NRF, ESF #6 Mass Care/Emergency Assistance is responsible for providing “…support to evacuations (including registration and tracking of evacuees)…”
ESF #6 – FEMA is responsible registering/tracking the general population (and service animals / household pets)A general population evacuee who becomes ill during evacuation will become the responsibility of ESF #8
ESF #8 – HHS is responsible for medical evacueesMedical evacuees discharged/released from medical care become the responsibility of ESF #6

State and Federal Challenges:
There is no single National System for evacuation Federal agencies are developing different system –DoD, FEMA, HHS
Some states purchased or developed their own software
Cost versus use
Host State versus affected State
Interoperability of systems How can diverse systems can exchange data

What is NMETS?
NMETS is composed of both manual and computer-based systems that are designed to assist States in tracking:
Transportation-assisted evacuees
Household pets
Luggage
Medical equipment
All software and basic training will be provided free of charge to States. Any equipment and maintenance costs are the responsibility of the
State.

What is NMETS?
The system includes three distinct evacuation support tools
(1) Paper-Based
(2) Low-Tech (LT)
(3) Advanced Tech (AT)
Each platform is designed to be used in combination with wristbands that include unique numbers and corresponding barcodes.
The system will also support corresponding Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) wristbands.

NMETS: Paper-Based
Can be used as a stand-alone system for States that choose not to adopt a technical solution due to cost considerations or infrequency of evacuation events;
Can be used as: as a back-up to existing technical systems
when power, connectivity or system operations fail
as a supplement to existing systems when those capabilities are overwhelmed.
Inexpensive to produce (8.5x11x4ply)
Easy to manage and simple to pre-position and/or rapidly deploy.
124-ply carbon copy form

NMETS Development Timeline Paper Based Evacuation Support Tool (PBEST) PBEST is in the final stages of development A prototype materials demonstration kit that will support 5,000 evacuees is
currently being assembled Following review and concurrence by DAD, PBEST will be submitted to NEMA
(National Emergency Management Association)
Low-Tech Evacuation Support Tool (LT) LT is currently being updated to reflect changes made to PBEST based on
stakeholder feedback It is expected to be available for field testing in Spring 2010
Advanced Technology Evacuation Support Tool (AT) AT is undergoing revisions and currently under development It is expected to be available for field testing in early Spring 2010

Interoperability
Building systems that communicate effectively is a critical step to provide the best support to the States and to the Evacuees.
Concerns to deal with: Maintaining field names Defining the number of fields What data is important How to transfer the data Encryption needed How will the data be imported
