CAMP JOSEPH T. ROBINSON, NORTH LITTLE ROCK,, Ark. - The Arkansas National Guard is working closely with its state and federal partners to intensify preparations for a high-magnitude earthquake from the New Madrid Seismic Zone, spanning Illinois to northeast Arkansas. By planning for this rare, high-impact disaster, the Arkansas National Guard is building a robust framework capable of addressing any emergency, from tornadoes to floods to unforeseen crises. The Arkansas National Guard, in partnership with the Arkansas Division of Emergency Management, is crafting a response plan emphasizing communication, logistics, and mutual aid. Recent drills with Federal Emergency Management Agency Region 6 states Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas simulated a New Madrid Seismic Zone quake response, honing strategies for route assessments, hazardous materials response, and commodities distribution. These exercises, part of the Emergency Management Assistance Compact, strengthen Arkansas’ ability to both provide and receive aid, ensuring flexibility for a multitude of disasters.
