The CISA
ECD, formed under Title XVIII of the
Homeland Security Act of 2002, 6
U.S.C. 571 et seq., as amended, is
required to develop and maintain the
Nationwide Emergency
Communications Plan (NECP). The
vision of the NECP is to ensure
emergency response personnel can
communicate as needed, on demand,
and as authorized. To achieve this
vision, ECD provides the
Communications Assets and Survey
Mapping (CASM) Tool. The CASM Tool
is the primary resource nationwide for
the emergency communications
community to inventory and share asset
and training information for the purpose
of planning public safety
communications operability and
interoperability.
DHS provides the CASM Tool as a
secure and free nationwide database to
contain communications capabilities for
use by Federal, State, Local, Territorial,
and Tribal (SLTT) emergency personnel.
CASM allows Federal employees and
SLTT Statewide Interoperability
Coordinators (SWIC) to inventory
emergency communication equipment
and resources. The information entered
is voluntary and used by SWIC to
support tactical planning and
coordination during emergencies. DHS
does not utilize the information entered
into CASM. DHS only provides,
maintains, and stores the information
entered in the CASM database and only
has administrative access to the
information entered. All information is
collected via electronic means. The
CASM registration and database tool is
available online via https://
casm.dhs.gov/. Users can also access
and enter information via the CASM
Resource Finder mobile app.
This is a new information collection.
OMB is particularly interested in
comments that:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
