Key Characteristics - continued
• Involvement of all sectors is vital.• States play a critical role and there is a role for
NSGIC for coordinating state-wide activities.• The private sector is critical in implementing a
consistent standards-based NSDI across the nation.
• We will need down-to-the-ground coordination among federal agencies.
• Decision support activities must be driven by local issues and requirements.
• The model must incorporate a feedback loop and a communications mechanism.
