13. Joint Guidance for Federal Interagency Operations Under Existing Emergency Response Plans IAW INRP • The “Guidance” is complete & awaiting signature. Will then be sent to regional and local components. • All plans changed to recognize provisions of INRP. • One document created to change FRP, CONPLAN, FRERP & NCP.

14. Initial National Response Plan Nothing in the INRP alters, or impedes the ability to carry out the authorities of federal departments and agencies to perform their responsibilities under the law. However, to the extent that the INRP conflicts with existing federal plans or protocols, the INRP supersedes such plans or protocols.
