Pages 38 thru 40 lists and discusses concisely many of these federal agencies and their actual duties and responsibilities when recovering from a disaster. Again, be careful of the copy-and-paste/plagiarism of such words/materials! That should take several pages of Assignment #2 and should be the bulk of this submission. #3 speaks for itself.

DO NOT INCLUDE FEMA in any of these discussions regarding a chosen federal agency. That is just too easy and for me boring because we constantly discuss FEMA. There are SO many other agencies/organizations to discuss. Please choose and discuss 2 such federal agencies OTHER than FEMA. You WILL lose points if you include FEMA as one of those agencies or organizations within your discussion of a response and/or recovery plans for your chosen disaster.
