"Coordination Of Intelligence Collection"  - This Live Response program explains the importance of knowing how to collect and forward intelligence regarding potential terrorist actions involving possible WMD agents.  Joint operations are very important in prevention and deterrence, as well as consequence management of WMD incidents.  Having the right information ahead of time or assigning the right teams at an incident site is vital to the mitigation of a WMD incident.
