"As a nation we cannot gamble with the citizenry and rely on the vagaries of the leadership, planning and preparedness capabilities of local and state authorities...we require an integrated national planning system that mandates minimum planning and preparedness standards that are routinely inspected, revised, updated and exercised."

I don't thinks so...I recommend reading the full article. What he suggests that follows is that national, state and local level preparedness plans have to be integrated and evaluated for sufficiency and be executable to the standards set. State and local leaders need training in crisis response and management, not winging it on the job...we don't elect generals to fight wars we train them...these decision makers likewise need more systematic training as well.
