On Friday the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
announced that it had approved the information collection request (ICR) from
the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) for their new Exercise
Information System (EXIS). I
discussed this new program in some detail last year when TSA initiated this
ICR.
The EXIS web page is up and functioning, but there is little
on it yet. This is another site that will go on my list of sites to
periodically check. The EXIS Links
page does provide a good list of web sites that emergency planners and exercise
planners might find useful. There is also a brief overview of the Intermodal Security Training and
Exercise Program (I-STEP) that is supported by the EXIS program.
Everything sounds good here. It will be interesting to see
how well it is executed and used by the transportation and emergency response
communities.
