SUMMARY

This project involved development of a Hazards Stress Test Tool (HSTT) that supports coordinated actions in all risk management and mitigation phases involving collaboration between federal, state, local, tribal, and private sector partners. We concluded that the project direction should be adjusted to produce a decision support framework that supports not only planning, but the integration of planning within a broader decision making context including implementation and funding.
