EMAC, the Emergency Management Assistance Compact, is a
congressionally ratified organization that provides form and
structure to interstate mutual aid.
Through EMAC, a disaster impacted state can request and
receive assistance from other member states quickly and
efficiently, resolving two key issues upfront: liability and
reimbursement.
