This shared planning community increases the likelihood of integration and synchronization, makes planning cycles more efficient and effective, and makes plan maintenance easier.

THIRA/SPR

The Threat and Hazard Risk and Identification Assessment (THIRA) evaluates the the threats and hazards faced in Idaho and establishes benchmarks for actions across FEMA’s 32 core capabilities.  The Stakeholder Preparedness Review (SPR; formerly State Preparedness Report) measures the state’s ability to meet those benchmarks and identifies gaps across the elements of planning, organization, equipment, training, and exercise.
