LHDs are encouraged to modify and expand upon the exercise plan to meet specific jurisdictional exercise objectives and goals. Furthermore, Appendix B: Operational LHD Objectives provides suggestions on objectives that could be included in the exercise to help meet MCM ORR requirements.

 

 

Similar to previous years, this drill will test local-to-state SNS request procedures utilizing the MISNS SharePoint request site. On March 21, the exercise will begin with a MIHAN alert to the LHD EPC and Health Officer groups indicating that the CHECC will begin accepting "ongoing" SNS requests. Participants will be able to submit requests any time between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM EST through the MISNS SharePoint request site at http://mirequest.org/SNS.
