SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and 
Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act), 42 U.S.C. 5121-5207, 
authorizes the President to establish a program of disaster 
preparedness that utilizes services of all appropriate agencies and 
includes training and exercises. Section 611 of the Stafford Act (42 
U.S.C. 5196) directs that the Federal Emergency Management Agency 
(FEMA) may conduct training for the purpose of emergency preparedness. 
In response, FEMA established the National Emergency Training Center 
(NETC), located in Emmitsburg, Maryland. The NETC site has facilities 
and housing available for those participating in emergency preparedness 
training. For planning purposes, a request for use of these areas must 
be made in advance.
