SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 2003, 

Homeland Security Presidential 

Directive-8: National Preparedness 

(HSPD–8) called for establishing a 

system that would assess the Nation’s 

overall preparedness and provide an 

annual status report of national 

preparedness. Three years later, the 

Post-Katrina Emergency Management 

Reform Act (PKEMRA) included 

requirements to establish a 

‘‘comprehensive system to assess, on an 

ongoing basis, the Nation’s prevention 

capabilities and overall preparedness.’’ 

The National Preparedness 

Directorate (NPD) within FEMA is 

charged with developing the 

Comprehensive Assessment System 

(CAS). The CAS will, as mandated by 

PKEMRA 649(c)(1–4), assess 

compliance with the national 

preparedness system, the National 

Incident Management System (NIMS), 

and other related plans; assess 

capability levels against target levels; 

assess resource needs to meet target 

levels; and assess the performance of 

training, exercises, and operations.
