Discussion; Emergency Response, Who's Involved?

14 CFR 5.27(c) - Coordination of Emergency Response Planning (Links to an external site.) requires an airline's emergency response plan be coordinated with "external organizations" such as first responders, National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) investigators, family support organizations, airport authorities, manufacturers, hazardous materials authorities, the Center for Disease Control (CDC), etc.

For this activity, locate a website of one such external organization. Based on what you have learned in this course, describe the possible role of that external organization in the emergency response plan. Include the airline department(s) that would interact with the external organization.
