Current US&R System Recommendations & Reviews

2025 FEMA Cache List

In collaboration with associated Subgroups, the National Urban Search and Rescue (US&R) Response System (the System) Logistics Functional Group has identified the attached list of proposed updates to the 2025 FEMA Approved Equipment Cache List.  The Subgroups submitted the proposed updates to the Equipment Subgroup to prepare the list for a 21-day review by the System.  The proposed list of updates includes changes, additions, and deletions to meet operational requirements, identify obsolete equipment, update manufacturer and model/part numbers, meet current product and technology availability, and are required to maintain the FEMA Approved Equipment Cache List in an up-to-date status.

​

The 2025 FEMA Approved Equipment Cache List changes are available electronically on www.responsesystem.org on the 21-Day Review / Recommendations page.  Comments must be submitted online using the System’s US&R Comment Review Form.  For every comment being made, a new form must be submitted; do not combine issues or comments into one form.  If the recommendation is supported without comments, it will proceed to the subsequent approval step.  If further work is required for the document to be supported, it will be sent back for additional work, adjudication of comments, and resubmission into the approval process.  If a task force accepts the document as reviewed, one comment form stating that the task force has no comment should be submitted.  Task Force Representatives should ensure that all comments are submitted by COB on November 20, 2024.

​

Questions regarding this document review process may be directed to the appropriate Divisional Task Force Representative or the Advisory Group Chair.
