4 INTRODUCTION In 2003, the Nevada Legislature created the Nevada Commission on Homeland Security in response to the terror attacks against the United States on September 11, As described in Chapter 239C of the Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS 239C), the Nevada Commission on Homeland Security (Commission) is tasked with several responsibilities directed toward making recommendations to the Governor, the Legislature, local governments, private business, and citizens about actions and measures that may be taken to protect the citizens and visitors to this State from potential acts of terrorism and related emergencies. The duties of the Commission include: Making recommendations to the Governor, Legislature, State agencies, local governments, businesses, and private citizens about actions to be taken to protect against terrorism; Making recommendations, through the Division of Emergency Management, on the use of money received by the State from homeland security grants or related programs; Proposing goals and programs to counteract acts of terrorism; Ensuring the safety of Nevada s residents and the critical infrastructures of the State by identifying the susceptibility of those infrastructures to terrorist acts; Examining the use and deployment of response agencies; Reviewing the interoperability of the State s communications systems and the efficacy of emergency (911) telephone systems, including establishment of a State plan for the compatibility and interoperability of the State s information and communication systems for response agencies and advising the Governor about such systems with particular emphasis on public safety radio systems; Coordinating between government agencies to avoid duplication; and Submission of an annual briefing to the Governor on the assessment of the State s preparedness, including an assessment of response plans and vulnerability assessments of utilities, and public and private entities. To summarize, the Commission has the responsibility to advise the Governor and the Legislature on any and all means that will improve the safety and security of the State, our residents, and visitors. To meet this responsibility, the Commission continues its close partnership with the Nevada Department of Public Safety, Division of Emergency Management and Office of Homeland Security. The resulting cooperation has allowed the Commission to move forward in its defined duties that are outlined in the following pages of this report. 1

5 OVERVIEW AND COMMISSION ACTIVITIES REPORT January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016 The Nevada Commission on Homeland Security (Commission) continued to support funding of riskbased counter-terrorism and public safety programs and projects in Nevada. The overall amount of federal homeland security grant funding available to Nevada to address preparedness and prevention activities remained virtually flat in Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2016 from the prior year. In FFY 2016, Nevada received a total of $6,696, in Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) funds representing a $38,000 decrease from the FFY 2015 HSGP funding allocation. Nevada s FFY 2016 HSGP award included $3,734, allocated to the State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) in addition to $2,962, awarded to the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI). The Commission met in regular session six times in Throughout this series of meetings, the Commission heard reports and briefings from local, state, and federal government officials including status updates on current HSGP funded projects and direction to stakeholders on efforts to address local and statewide preparedness efforts. The Commission itself held no closed sessions in 2016; however it did authorize a closed session of the Cyber Security Committee on December 13, Commission Meeting Overview On January 15, 2016, the Commission was briefed with an overview of the Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) process, the Commission s previously established FFY 2015 priorities, and the development of FFY 2016 priorities. This overview emphasized the Threat and Hazard Identification Risk Assessment (THIRA) as well as the State Preparedness Report (SPR) as drivers to the FFY 2016 HSGP process. Using this information, Commission members were asked to provide individual input to rank-prioritize core capabilities for the FFY Additional emphasis was placed on addressing the concerns surrounding the effect of federal Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) rankings for Nevada s urban area and the work the Governor, the State of Nevada, emergency management partners, and UASI partners are putting forth to aggressively pursue changes to the formula that continually places Nevada on the verge of not obtaining UASI funding. On February 12, 2016, the Commission set project and capabilities priorities for the FFY 2016 HSGP funding allocation in line with federal grant guidance and Presidential Policy Directive 8 (PPD-8) which 1 The Commission met on January 15, February 12, April 15, June 23, September 22, and December 19,

6 describes the Nation s approach to preparing for threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk to the security of the United States. The objective of PPD-8 is to facilitate an integrated, all-of-nation risk informed, capabilities based approach to preparedness. This is done through a shared responsibility throughout all levels of government, including the private sector, nonprofits, and individual citizens. PPD-8 depends on close involvement of state and local government and stakeholders to work with the federal government to strengthen the security and resilience of the United States through systematic preparation for the threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk to the security of the Nation, including acts of terrorism, cyber-attacks, pandemics, and catastrophic natural disasters. The primary sources of information assisting in this ranking of priorities came from the 2015 SPR, which is an annual self-assessment of state preparedness capabilities. Using the 2015 SPR data, and analyzing the perceived gaps, risks, and needs relative to the core capabilities, the Commission established five priorities for the Nevada Homeland Security Working Group (HSWG) to use in the identification of eligible projects for FFY 2016 HSGP funding. The five priorities that were established by the Commission, ranked highest to lowest, are: RANK CORE CAPABILITY/PRIORITY MISSION AREA #1 Cybersecurity Protection #2 Intelligence and Information Sharing Prevention/Protection #3 Public Information and Warning All #4 Operational Coordination All #5 Operational Communication Response Additional briefings included a status update on the Cyber Security Committee (CSC), and an overview of the Student Visa process in Nevada, a discussion on re-establishing outreach efforts to rural communities for Commission-related initiatives, and lastly an update on response measures in place for hazardous and radiological waste sites in Nevada. On April 15, 2016, the Commission approved the Finance Committee s recommendation to accept six HSGP Project Change Requests (PCR s) including NCHS-117 through NCHS-122 for a total of $238, Using the established priorities set at the previous meeting, the Commission also adopted the 2016 Finance Committee recommendations to fund 21 SHSP projects in addition to accepting the UASI recommendation to fund seven projects as presented by the Urban Area Working Group (UAWG). This allowed the State Administrative Agency (SAA) to submit the 2016 Nevada HSGP 3

7 application to DHS on April 20, 2016, representing a combined HSGP Investment Justification (IJ) totaling $6,361,675.

10 COMMITTEE ACTIVITIES REPORT This section of the Annual Report of Governor summarizes the activities of the committees established by the Commission including the Critical Infrastructure Committee (CIC), Nevada Critical Infrastructure Protection Plan Subcommittee (NCIPP), Cyber Security Committee (CSC), Finance Committee, Legislative and Bylaws Committee, and State Homeland Security Strategy (SHSS) Advisory Committee. Additionally, it includes the Governor s Executive Order Committees that advise and make recommendations to the Commission including the Nevada Homeland Security Working Group (HSWG), the Nevada Public Safety Communications Committee (NPSCC), NPSCC Statewide 911 Coordinator Subcommittee, the NPSCC Grants Subcommittee, and the Nevada State Citizen Corps Council. The last section summarizes the health preparedness activities of the Nevada Health Division and the Nevada Hospital Association. The agendas for all scheduled public meetings of the Commission, its Committees and Subcommittees, and advisory Committees to the Commission are located in Appendix D. CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE COMMITTEE (CIC) The Critical Infrastructure Committee (CIC) is tasked with ensuring that the critical infrastructure assets of the State of Nevada are identified, properly cataloged, and protected in order to assist in decreasing any compromise of the critical infrastructure system that could potentially have a debilitating impact on the state either directly, through interdependency, or cascading effects from acts of terror or natural hazards. The CIC conducts reviews of federal Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) guidance and programs to ensure they are in line with state and local strategies. The Committee reports to the Commission on the critical infrastructure (CI) programs within Nevada and how well these programs correlate with DHS guidance and the Commission s intent. Additionally, the CIC conducts periodic reviews of state and federal law to identify gaps and obstacles affecting CI protection efforts and makes recommend changes in state or local law to the Commission as appropriate. The CIC did not meet in 2016, and membership remained constant with no changes. 7

11 NEVADA CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROTECTION PLAN (NCIPP) SUBCOMMITTEE The National Infrastructure Protection Plan (NIPP) sets forth a broad framework in which critical infrastructure can be identified, and plans can be developed ensuring that such infrastructure is protected. As part of that strategy to manage risk as part of the overall framework protecting the resiliency of the nation s critical infrastructure and key resources, the NIPP recognized key roles that states must play in the identification and securing of critical infrastructure within their own borders. Building on this framework, the NCIPP Subcommittee, as a subcommittee under the CIC, is tasked to provide a roadmap for the State of Nevada, local government, and the private sector to ensure the safety and security of critical infrastructure and key resources vital to Nevada. The NCIPP did not meet in 2016, and membership remained constant. CYBER SECURITY COMMITTEE The Cyber Security Committee (CSC) is responsible for providing advice and recommendations to the Commission on Nevada s cybersecurity risk, cyber-threat preparedness posture, statewide cybersecurity plans and projects, cyber related training and exercises, and enhancement of security awareness through education, public awareness, and engagement with public and private sector partners. Seated in 2016, the CSC currently consists of 19 appointees, many of which encompass expertise in cybersecurity, information technology, and critical infrastructure from multiple jurisdictions including federal, state, county, city, and private industry. The CSC met three times in 2016, including an authorized Closed Session pursuant to NRS 239C.140[2]. 2 On March 8, 2016, the CSC was briefed with a complete overview of the HSGP process and tasked with the development of priorities and objectives as a tool for reviewing and rank-prioritizing HSGP projects with a cybersecurity component. The establishment of priorities to which all cyber-related projects would be vetted was adopted by the CSC including: Alignment with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Cybersecurity Framework; Avoidance of conflict with Improving Critical Infrastructure Cyber Security under Presidential Executive Order 13636; Review and ranking of HSGP projects for regional and/or statewide impact; 100% completion of project(s) within the allotted performance period of the grant; Sustainability of the project long-term; Compliance with the Commission s priorities and direction; and Compliance with Federal and State grant guidance Using this matrix, the CSC reviewed a total of 12 FFY 2016 HSGP project proposals totaling $2,823, Of these projects, only six were deemed to meet the established priority criteria, and 2 The CSC met in regular session on March 8, September 7, and in Closed Session on December 13,

12 those six projects were rank-prioritized, per funding stream, for further review and consideration by the Nevada Homeland Security Working Group (HSWG). Pursuant to NRS 239C.170[1], the CSC voted to approve Nevada Lieutenant Governor Mark Hutchison as the Chair of the CSC, and Joe McDonald, Chief Security Officer, Switch, Ltd., as Vice-Chair. On September 7, 2016, the CSC was briefed on Presidential Policy Directive 41 (PPD-41) released on July 26, 2016, that sets forth guiding principles that govern the Federal Government s response to a cyber incident occurring in government or private sector entities. Of significance is the establishment of lead Federal agencies and architecture for broader coordination in Federal response, and guiding principles including shared responsibility, risk-based response, respecting affected entities, unity of governmental effort, and enabling restoration and recovery. The CSC made the determination that the effects of PPD-41 may be considered in the examination of future projects for Nevada. Additional emphasis was placed on development of Nevada s cyber posture in reducing risk and utilizing the CSC not only as a grants project review body to develop unity with regard to cyber efforts across the state, but also to coordinate a baseline approach using best practices to address cyber security issues facing the state. On December 13, 2016, the CSC was briefed on the current HSGP status in addition to the upcoming FFY 2017 HSGP process as it relates to cyber-related projects. With the former approval by the Commission on September 22, 2016, and pursuant to NRS 239C.140, the CSC voted to hold a closed session to receive a cyber security briefing. Membership remained constant with no changes during FINANCE COMMITTEE The Finance Committee reviews the various homeland security and related sub-grant applications, program change requests, deobligation requests, and makes recommendations to the Commission on use of these funds. The Finance Committee works with the Nevada Division of Emergency Management in its role as the State Administrative Agency (SAA) administering homeland security grants (SAA). NRS 239C.170 requires the establishment of a Finance Committee to assist the Commission in its duties by reviewing these programs and making recommendations to the Commission as a whole. The Finance Committee met on three occasions in On April 7, 2016, the Finance Committee reviewed and approved a funding recommendation to the Commission for five FFY 2014 HSGP project change requests in addition to one FFY 2015 HSGP project change request for a combined total of $ This recommendation included projects NCHS-117 through NCHS-122.

NEVADA STATE CITIZEN CORPS COUNCIL The Nevada State Citizen Corps Council (the State Council) was created by Executive Order (EO) on February 25, 2009, and amended by EO on November 28, EO expired on June 30, The State Council was reestablished on February 24, 2016, by EO that will expire on December 31, The State Council unifies all the local Citizen Corps Councils into a coordinated statewide organization with a common goal to sustain and improve volunteer activities in the State of Nevada and to provide new and innovative ways to deliver important training to citizen volunteers. The Division of Emergency Management (DEM) provides administrative support to the State Council along with the Chief of DEM serving as the Council Chair. Following the tragic events that occurred on September 11, 2001, state and local government officials have increased opportunities for citizens to become an integral part of protecting the homeland and supporting the local first responders. A key component to ensuring a more secure and safer homeland consists of preparedness, training, and citizen involvement in supporting first responders. In January 2002, the President of the United States launched Citizen Corps, to capture the spirit of service that emerged throughout our communities following the terrorist attacks. The mission of Citizen Corps is to harness the power of every individual through education, training, and volunteer service to make communities safer, stronger, and better prepared to respond to the threats of terrorism, crime, public health issues, and disasters of all kinds. 6 NPSCC Statewide 911 Coordinator Subcommittee met on February 11, March 3, April 13, and May 16,

19 Although the Citizen Corps Program (CCP) is no longer a separate grant program (the line item funding was discontinued in FFY 2012), it is supportable through the Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP). Under the direction of the Governor s Executive Order, the State Council s role is to identify opportunities for local, state, and federal organizations to collaborate to accomplish the primary objectives of Citizen Corps. Additionally, the Council shall engage in ongoing discussions to develop and support local Citizen Corps Councils and advance the national mission of Citizen Corps across the State. The State Council has divided Nevada into four geographic regions for the purpose of establishing a statewide Citizen Corps Program. The geographic regions are: Northern Region: Counties of Carson City, Churchill, Douglas, Lyon, Mineral, Pershing, Storey, and Washoe; North East Region: Counties of Elko, Eureka, Humboldt, Lander, and White Pine; Southern Region: Counties of Clark, Esmeralda, Lincoln, and Nye; and Tribal Lands. Within these regions are federally recognized Citizen Corps Councils: State of Nevada s Citizen Corps Council; The Nevada Statewide Tribal Council; The Washoe County Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) and Citizen Corps Council; and The Las Vegas Urban Area Citizen Corps Council. Nevada also has federally-recognized Citizen Emergency Response Teams (CERT) in the following cities, counties, and tribal lands: Carson City, Douglas County, Duck Valley Tribe, Duckwater Tribe, Mesquite, Mineral County, Moapa Band of Paiutes, North Lyon County Fire, Northeast Nevada, Reno-Sparks Indian Colony, Southern Nevada, Storey County, Washoe Regional and Washoe Tribe. Primary Goals of the State Citizen Corps Council An active State Citizen Corps Council chaired by NDEM supporting regional Councils and multiple Citizen Emergency Response Teams registered with the Department of Homeland Security. The 2016 Citizen Corps projects reflect a Whole Community approach with a focus on Public awareness and Youth Preparedness. Additional Goals of the Nevada Citizen Corps program include: Continued public awareness and response training (preparedness) through training and exercises for citizens and volunteers which include prevention techniques and protocols; Procuring the necessary equipment and training materials required by FEMA to meet the standards for public awareness and prevention for all hazards; 16

20 Create team leaders in each county/community to expand and enhance the education in the target capabilities for prepared awareness, education and prevention; Outreach to schools, businesses and local communities through prepared awareness, training and prevention which will assist them in recognizing, preparing for and responding to emergency incidents in their communities and to be deployed throughout the state upon request; and Continue organizing CERT train-the-trainer/program manager courses for Citizen Corps Leaders.
