IPW & TEPW Process

Keep in mind…for this discussion Trainings & exercises must assist the Houston Urban Area in building an enhanced and sustainable capacity to prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism. Be regional (minimum of two counties, or in lieu of one county, the exercise must have state or federal integration) or multi-regional (involves at least two Houston UASI jurisdictions as well as non-Houston UASI jurisdiction(s)).
