Role of Risk Assessment in Risk-Based Decision Making

Using NFPA 1600 (Chapter 5 and the corresponding sections in Annex A) as a basis, explain the role of risk assessment in risk-based decision making in emergency management for your approved major public event. Include discussion of how risk-based decision making fits into the process of risk management and mitigation. Describe how risk-based decision making supports continuity of operations or business continuity. Consider also how risk-based decision making is supported by theory in emergency management.
