UPDATE0
by Robert A. Lansford
State Coordinator
Division of Emergency Management
The civil defense portion of FEMA's FY '84 budget has
cleared the conference committee mark-up. As it
stands now, $ 168.9 million has been finalized. This is
about $ 20 million more than last year, but far short of
the $253 million requested. Although we are short of
the request, continuation of the current programs are
assured, with some increase.
Our biggest problem with FEMA's FY '84 program is
deciding how to implement the training and education
proposals -- and deciding what their new program
means. We have had difficulty through the years with
FEMA's constant change and redirection of this pro-
gram. It is worse now than I have ever known it to be.
For those of you who still have excess property, we
have been informed by FEMA that they are working
hard on turnover authority. As you will recall, Congress
approved the transfer of title to current holders of the
property, and now it is up to FEMA to process the
paperwork. I urge you to sit tight with the property until
the turnover is authorized.
This past session of the state legislature transferred a
program from TENRAC (Texas Energy and Natural
Resources Advisory Council) to this division. The
state's energy preparedness program will now reside
with us. Primarily, its function is emergency fuel alloca-
tion. Two people will transfer from TENRAC to DEM
September 1. We welcome Program Manager Mike
Scott and his assistant, Dawn Demuth.0
