The General Accounting Office published today its April 9
report to Congress, "Combating Terrorism: Threat and Risk
Assessments Can Help Prioritize and Target Program
Investments."
It reviews the status of the domestic preparedness program,
and recommends that for continued funding cities be required
to perform threat and risk assessments.
There's interesting discussion about the Feds sharing
sensitive intelligence with locals. And, FEMA questions if it
will be legal to require cities to perform the assessments.
The report is available from GAO in PDF format:
