NIMSCAST — A web -based assessment tool for State, territorial, tribal, and local governments to evaluate and report
jurisdiction's NIMS Compliance Objectives released since 2005 by National Preparedness Directorate's Incident Management
System Division. Additionally, Homeland Security Presidential Directive -5 (HSPD-5) requires Federal Departments and

NIMSCAST facilitates adoption of NIMS by State, territory, tribal, and local governments in order to meet requirement
established in HSPD-5. City, county and tribal jurisdiction must be 100% complete to be eligible to receive Homeland
Security Grant Program (HSGP) funding.

Forest Service (TFS). TDEM is tasked with administering a program of comprehensive emergency management, designed to
reduce the vulnerability of the citizens and communities of Texas to damage, to injury, and to Toss of life and property by
providing a system for mitigation of, preparedness for, response to, and recovery from natural or man-made disasters.
TRRN web registration provides a central, web -based system to organize and coordinate resources in response to such
incidents. Jurisdiction receiving HSGP funding must register with TRRN; and equipment with value of $5,000 or more,
purchased with HSGP funds, must be entered into TRRN.
A-133 Audit — Any sub -recipient expending Federal funds in excess of $500,000 must obtain OMB Circular A-133 Single Audit
