Previous MMRS guidance applicable to this CFA includes deliverable four of the FY 2003 MMRS Contract, and the capabilities sustainment element of the FY 2004 MMRS grant guidance. The term "MMRS Operational Area" means all of the political jurisdictions and special jurisdictions (such as port authorities and transportation authorities) with which an MMRS jurisdiction has mutual aid agreements and other preparedness and response coordination and/cooperation arrangements. This term is meant to avoid the confusion caused by the existence of multiple special purpose "regions" (e.g., emergency management, public health, homeland security, transportation/highway) in most States. The jurisdictions in an MMRS Operational Area which receive MMRS grants funds are "principal MMRS jurisdictions" and the other jurisdictions in the operational area are "affiliated MMRS jurisdictions." Grant funding is available to support continuing, and newly established MMRS Operational Areas. This multi-jurisdictional approach is a hallmark of the MMRS Program and achieves efficiency and economy by providing protection for a greater at-risk population, and by incorporating more highly trained response personnel (e.g., hospitals) and special-purpose resources (e.g., pharmaceuticals, equipment). . States with two or more MMRS jurisdictions shall achieve formalized State-wide mass casualty preparedness and response capabilities. . MMRS jurisdictions with Operational Areas in two or more States shall achieve common response protocols; common, or compatible, credentialing and permissions for first responder and medical treatment personnel; and common interoperable communications capabilities.
