Interagency Public Information Work Group (retrieved 28 May 2006)

Some things to note now—the “interagency” doesn’t include

the Federal Dept of Homeland Security (FEMA, Coast Guard), Dept of Transportation (FAA)

only one tribal government consortium

only one municipality but no municipality consortium, such as the Alaska Municipal League

no boroughs (equivalent to county government)

no single entry point for information, unless one counts the two different hotlines.

E-mail addresses are given, but none of the telephone numbers are toll-free
