FEMA, the State of Oregon, Multnomah County, and other government agencies only have small roles to play in Portland NET. | |||
Though FEMA publishes the CERT curriculum used in NET, FEMA sets no standards or governance for CERT volunteer training. FEMA expects local jurisdictions to manage their own CERT programs, and FEMA does not audit CERT programs. They do provide grant funding that PBEM uses primarily to purchase NET equipment and pay trainers. | |||
The State of Oregon also has no role managing CERT programs directly. However, as of 2023, [https://www.oregon.gov/oem/community-preparedness/pages/cert-program.aspx Oregon's Office of Emergency Management] does coordinate and track CERT programs in the state. There are also state statutes that influence NET programming but are not actively administered.<ref>For example: [https://oregon.public.law/statutes/ors_30.285 ORS 30.285] and ORS [https://oregon.public.law/statutes/ors_chapter_401 401.358 to ORS 401.378].</ref> | |||
