support teams of Federal personnel to be deployed to an area affected 
by major disaster or emergency. Section 403(a)(3)(B) of the Stafford 
Act provides that the President may authorize Federal Departments and 
Agencies to perform work on public or private lands essential to save

medical care, and other essential needs. Section 327 of the Stafford 
Act further authorizes the National Urban Search and Rescue Response
