Book excerpt: This regulation, Army Regulation AR 525-27 Military Operations: Army Emergency Management Program March 2019, establishes the Army Emergency Management (EM) Program. The Army EM function serves as the single integrated EM program across the Army on installations, facilities, and activities (hereafter referred to as installations) and associated off-installation areas (hereafter referred to as standalone facilities) subject to Army jurisdiction. The Army EM program is responsible for synchronizing all activities and operations related to preventing, protecting against, mitigating the potential effects of, responding to, and recovering from all multi-agency and/or multi-jurisdictional emergencies on or impacting Army installations worldwide. The Army EM program functions within an all-hazards environment consisting of all natural, technological, human-caused hazards, including terrorism threats or incidents. The intent of the Army EM program is not to replace existing, well-functioning single-agency and/or single-hazard-set programs, plans, or capabilities, but rather to integrate and synchronize these existing capabilities while coordinating the development of capabilities required for the transition to effective management of multi-agency and/or multi-jurisdictional emergencies regardless of cause. This regulation further outlines specific exceptions and caveats for facilities not possessing organic emergency response capabilities. The Army EM program synchronizes all emergency operations with an integrated operational concept coordinated with other protection programs.
