Executive Summary
-FEMA The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) carries out its mission to suppott our citizens and first responders to ensure Americans work together to build, sustain, and improve our capabilities to prepare for, protect against, respond to, recover from, and mitigate all hazards that could potentiaJ ly befall the Nation. To effectively collaborate a nd coordinate the management and implementation offederal, state, and territorial government resources and capabilities requires a resilient, survivable
communications platform, independent from but interconnected with normal communications infrastructure. FEMA's National Continuity Programs Directorate (NCP), in accordance with Presidential PolicyDirective
40 (PPD 40), National Continuity Policy, maintains the FEMA High Frequency Continuity
System (FHFCS), a suite
of unclassified High Frequency (HF) radio communications systems designed to provide resilient capabilities across the full spectrum of potential hazards. The FEMA National RadioSystem (FNARS) is a key component
of the FHFCS portfolio, and is suppmted with commercial-off-the sbelf (COTS) equipment installed at the Mount Weather Emergency Operations Center (MWEOC), Federal Regional Centers (FRCs), Regional Offices (R.Os), the Mobile Emergency Response Support(MERS) detachments, as well as the emergency operations centers (EOCs) of the 50 states, the District of
Columbia, and the U.S. Territories.
FNARS provides the FEMA Administrator and executive leadership with resilient voice and messaging capabiliti es for command, control, and communications (C3); continuity of operations (COOP) of FEMAassets and resources; and communication, coordination, and collaboration with Regional Administrators
and state/territorial emergency management pa1tners in response to all hazards.This Concept
of Operations (CONOPS) serves as the foundation for the development of FNARS operational plans and procedures, and will be reviewed and updated as necessaty to ensure it is accurate, current, and provides appropriate guidance to ensw-e the program demonstrates maximum benefit to theNation's continuity and security.
