SB 1168 proposes the creation of a disaster identification system to be activated in declared states of disaster. The system would allow individuals to voluntarily participate by using illuminated displays to signal their status to disaster relief personnel, distinguishing between individuals needing assistance and those who do not. The bill amends existing emergency management provisions to include this system as part of the state’s emergency response plan, specifying how disaster relief teams should use it for search and rescue operations.
