InterAgency Board (IAB) for Emergency Preparedness and Response is partnering with The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Homeland Defense and Security Standardization Collaborative (HDSCC) to host a meeting on responder standards development priorities on March 27, 2018, in Washington, DC. The meeting will highlight expert discussions and feedback from federal agencies, standards development organizations, and responder stakeholder organizations.

Register for the event or view the draft agenda.

Based on direct field experience, IAB members advocate for and assist with the development and implementation of performance criteria, standards, test protocols, and technical, operating, and training requirements for all-hazards incident response equipment. Each year, the IAB develops a list of standards that do not currently exist but are needed for the responder community.
