  4. Prions/BSEs • Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy • Other Chronic Wasting Diseases • USDA Nationwide Response System in place • New Tracking Regulations proposed late December

  5. HSPD #9 • Signed on February 3, 2004 • Protects food supply and agriculture from terrorist attacks • Requires improved coordination between USDA, FDA, and EPA • Expands ESF #11 in draft Final NRP

  6. Anthrax Activities • Several regional and other exercises • Brentwood, Trenton completed; AMI underway • 2nd Civilian/Military Workshop • Revision of the NRT Anthrax TAD • US/Russian Scientific Exchange

  7. How Clean? • Technical Working Group (TWG) • Clearance Advisory Committee (CAC) • Characteristics of Key CWA and BWA • Technical Guidelines/Resources

  8. Bio-Watch • DHS program supported by EPA, CDC, FBI • Operational in major urban centers • Early detection of airborne BWA • Early mobilization of public health system

  9. Bio-Watch Planning Templates • Preparedness • Public Health Response • Environmental Sampling

  10. NRP ESF # 8 – Current Thoughts • NRP ESF 8 similar to FRP ESF 8 • SERT/SCC • NDMS/MMRS • ATSDR/CDC Management Consolidation • ATSDR/CDC support to NCP and ESF 10

  13. Discussion Questions • Is there adequate bio-response planning at the RRT/State/local level? • What gaps exist in bio-response planning, training, exercises, health and safety? • What steps should the NRT/RRTs take to close existing gaps?
