This raises some questions, however, because an ITL will not have access to information inputted to the DAMM. PBEM recommends the following course of action: ITLs should order the prioritization of paper form use for damage assessments (NET Form 1) and order the Documentation Unit input completed NET Form 1s into the DAMM as soon as possible. Doing so will help ensure the ECC receives the situational awareness needed to make resource decisions. | This raises some questions, however, because an ITL will not have access to information inputted to the DAMM during a disaster (the dashboard is hidden from public view to protect survivors).
