DHS/FEMA/PIA-032-Deployment Programs

FEMA’s Office of Response and Recovery (OR&R), Response Directorate, Incident Workforce Management Office (IWMO) Deployment Unit, coordinates deployment programs under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act). To deploy disaster response and recovery personnel, the IWMO Deployment Unit operates the Automated Deployment Database (ADD) system. FEMA collects information from FEMA disaster response and recovery personnel assigned to support disaster response and recovery operations and uses that information to coordinate and manage deployments. FEMA is conducting this Privacy Impact Assessment because FEMA collects, uses, maintains, retrieves, and disseminates personally identifiable information through ADD for the purpose of coordinating and managing deployments.  August 16, 2013, (PDF, 230 KB, 26 pages).
