SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On behalf of DHS, IP manages the 
Department's program to protect the Nation's 18 Critical Infrastructure 
and Key Resources (CIKR) Sectors by implementing the National 
Infrastructure Protection Plan (NIPP). Pursuant to Homeland Security 
Presidential Directive--7 (HSPD-7) (December 2003), each sector is 
assigned an SSA to oversee Federal interaction with the array of sector 
security partners, both public and private. An SSA is responsible for 
leading a unified public-private sector effort to develop, coordinate, 
and implement a comprehensive physical, human, and cybersecurity 
strategy for its assigned sector. The SSA EMO, within IP, executes the 
SSA responsibilities for the six CIKR sectors assigned to IP: Chemical; 
Commercial Facilities; Critical Manufacturing; Dams; Emergency 
Services; and Nuclear Reactors, Materials, and Waste (Nuclear).
    The mission of the SSA EMO is to enhance the resiliency of the 
Nation by leading the unified public-private sector effort to ensure 
its assigned CIKR are prepared, more secure, and safer from terrorist 
attacks, natural disasters, and other incidents. To achieve this 
mission, SSA EMO leverages the resources and knowledge of its CIKR 
sectors to develop and apply security initiatives that result in 
significant, measurable benefits to the Nation.
    Each SSA EMO branch builds sustainable partnerships with its public 
and private sector stakeholders to enable more effective sector 
coordination, information sharing, and program development and 
implementation. These partnerships are sustained through the Sector 
Partnership Model, described in the 2009 NIPP, pages 18-20.
    Information sharing is a key component of the NIPP Partnership 
Model, and DHS-sponsored conferences are one mechanism for information 
sharing. To facilitate conference planning and organization, the SSA 
EMO plans to establish an event registration tool for use by all of its 
branches. The information collection is voluntary and will be used by 
the SSAs within the SSA EMO. The six SSAs within the SSA EMO will use 
this information to register public and private sector stakeholders for

collected to reserve space at a meeting for the registrant; contact the 
registrant with a reminder about the event; develop meeting materials 
for attendees; determine key topics of interest; and efficiently 
generate attendee and speaker nametags. Additionally, it will allow the 
SSA EMO to have a better understanding of the organizations 
participating in the CIKR protection partnership events. By 
understanding who is participating, the SSA can identify portions of a 
sector that are underrepresented, and the SSA could then target 
underrepresented sector elements through outreach and awareness 
initiatives.
