Volume 1, Issue 3

In this issue of the HDIAC Journal, we will address the critical components of emergency preparedness from both Weapons of Mass Destruction and Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Defense angles. Additionally, as the U.S. continues to address shortfalls through technological advances, in an attempt to bolster our nation’s border security, biometrics will play a key role in the implementation, management, and enforcement of immigration policies. Lastly, the U.S.’s electrical infrastructure has remained largely unchanged for the last century. However, to meet the growing energy needs in the coming decades and incorporate alternative energy solutions, microgrids are proving to be economically feasible and provide the country with a viable architecture.
