In Texas county, ESF-5 Emergency Management is not only organized in accordance with the National Incident Management System (NIMS) but also upholds the Incident Command System (ICS). For emergency management to be effective, it has to cover all mission areas, which include protection, prevention, response, recovery, and mitigation (Canton, 2019). It also requires comprehensive plans and procedures, personnel and material resources, operational facilities, and effective communication to make it as effective as possible. Other than coordinating with the primary case agency and the Texas Division Emergency Management (TDEM), it also includes other state agencies, non-governmental organizations, institutions of higher education, and private sector partners.
