II. Background
The NDHTF CONOPS explains the
Federal Government’s normal disaster
housing support role in operational
terms, along with the Federal
Government’s responsibility to maintain
readiness to assume a greater role in
housing disaster survivors when
required. It conveys national guidance,
operating principles, and a vision for
public (Federal, State, Tribal, local), and
individual coordination. It defines the
roles, programs, authorities, and
responsibilities of all entities,
emphasizing the cooperative efforts
required for disaster survivors and
affected communities to recover from a
disaster. Additionally, the CONOPS
outlines the national activities that will
be pursued in moving toward
accomplishing the goals of the Strategy.
Implementing the Strategy strengthens
the Nation’s collective capability and
resolve to fulfill all partner
responsibilities to the American people
in times of disaster or emergency,
regardless of cause, scope, or
complexity. The CONOPS describes
how the NDHTF intends to connect
critical programs, based in a wide
variety of Federal agency authorities, to
produce a unified effort.
Congress mandated that FEMA create
the Strategy in the Post-Katrina
Emergency Management Reform Act of
2006, Public Law 109–295. The
Strategy, published in January 2009 and
available at https://www.regulations.gov
under docket ID FEMA–2008–0009,
frames the full range of options that
unified disaster housing efforts should
consider to better meet the needs of
disaster survivors and affected
communities. The Strategy calls for the
establishment of the NDHTF to provide
a full-time, multi-agency focus on
disaster housing related issues, to
elevate the significance of disaster
housing preparedness in all
jurisdictions, and to oversee
implementation of the Strategy.
Additionally, the Strategy sets the goal
of the NDHTF to create this CONOPS
through a collaborative process among
the various local, State, Tribal, and
Federal partners, nongovernmental
organizations, and the private sector to
meet the needs of all disaster survivors.

error. However, during this 60 day
