Throughout this industrious nation, there are many policies, rules, and regulations for each detailed event one could think of. The U.S. government had created these to keep this country organized, prepared, and in control for whatever may occur. Among the vast number of programs and policies there is the Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (THIRA) and the Emergency Operations Plan (EOP). These two types of policies are very relative to each other in the sense of identifying threats/hazards and what should be done in the event of an emergency. Within the THIRA plan, there is a four-step process that must be developed for a complete report (DHS, 2013). These specific four pieces are vital to create a plan that will be able to

In addition, the different risks of all of these hazards and threats implied throughout the report. Many of these risks are addressed in a way that explains what to do in order to avoid further conflicts. For instance, keeping information 100% updated all the time while collecting intelligence, intercepting 100% of all associated actions of terrorism, using the creating Cyber Response Plan to address cyber risks, identifying physical measures that could pose a risk, and multiple more (Brown & Ghilarducci, 2014). More specifically, for example, is the community resilience section. This plan thoroughly explains that an implementation of a sustainable community resilience strategy plan must be done that will ultimately establish a community information system for mitigation and response. Previous units within this Hazards Governance course have mentioned the words “sustainable”, “resilience”, and “mitigation”, and in within this report it is clearly observed. Other terms were noted as well of high importance. A significant connection that can be made from reviewing this THIRA plan from the State of California, is that it reviews and touches base on every major component of hazards and risk management in the event of a serious emergency and disaster, without lacking in
