National Response Plan

Overview
The National Response Plan (NRP) (December 2004) was superseded by the National Response Framework (NRF) (January 2008). Both the NRP and the NRF were built on the NIMS template to establish a single, comprehensive framework for the management of domestic incidents (including threats) that require DHS coordination and effective response and engaged partnership by an appropriate combination of: Federal, State, local, and tribal governments; the private sector; and nongovernmental organizations.
