The Maryland Emergency Management Agency is proud the approved final draft of the State Mitigation Operations Plan (SMOP). The SMOP is the core plan of the Mitigation Mission of the Maryland Emergency Preparedness Program (MEPP).  This plan seeks to ensure the ability of the State of Maryland to effectively reduce or eliminate the impacts of all hazards on individuals, property, and the environment in coordination with all necessary State, local, federal, private sector, and voluntary, faith-based, and nongovernmental agencies in order to create a more resilient Maryland.  The SMOP also serves to implement the Maryland State Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP).

If you have questions or comments about the SMOP, please contact Elizabeth Webster ([email protected]).
