The ODPEM has divided the island into four (4) geographic regions North, South, East, and West. Assigned to these regions are Disaster Risk Management Specialists, officers designated as Regional Disaster Coordinators (RCs). An RC is a senior technical officer who is appointed to be the lead interface with local and parish level actors and systems of disaster risk management. They have authorized officers of the Director General as per section 2 (f) of the Disaster Risk Management (DRM) Act 2015.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
