Abstract:

Twelve feet beneath the state government Administration Building in Raleigh is the N.C. Emergency Management office. This office responds statewide to two types of emergencies: man-made disasters, including chemical spills; and natural disasters, including snowstorms and hurricanes. The office locates and coordinates help from state and local agencies and focuses it on the emergency at hand.
