Title: National Urban Search and Rescue Response System 
Abstract: The Department of Homeland Security published a proposed Maximum Pay Rate Table (Table) in conjunction with its interim rule for the National Urban Search and Rescue Response (US&R) System, which was also published in the same edition of the Federal Register. The interim rule standardizes the financing, administration, and operation of the US&R System, and standardizes the relationships between DHS and “Sponsoring Agencies” of the US&R System--those State or local government agencies that agree to organize and administer a US&R Task Force. The notice seeks comment on the proposed Table, which establishes the maximum rates that DHS will pay for US&R Task Force physicians, engineers, and canine handlers as “Affiliated Personnel” or for backfill positions for activated US&R System Members employed by or otherwise associated with a for-profit “Participating Agency.”
