About

This Biological Incident Annex (BIA) to the Response and Recovery Federal Interagency Operational Plan (FIOP) replaces the 2017 BIA to the Response FIOP. The BIA serves as the federal organizing framework for responding to and recovering from a range of biological threats and incidents. The BIA also serves as a reference for state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) authorities and private sector organizations to conduct adaptive planning that is consistent with hazard and risk analysis for specific biological threats in their communities. This BIA is designed to be scalable, flexible, and adaptable for a wide range of biological incidents, regardless of cause, size, location, or complexity.
