Regional Response Team 4 was formed to respond to emergencies in southwestern Wyoming when local resources were not adequate. The problem was Regional Response Team 4 had not assessed the response capabilities of the regional response team against the response needs of the jurisdictions within the region. The purpose of the research was to determine areas of response capabilities expansion based on the response needs of the jurisdictions within the region. A descriptive methodology was used to answer the research questions: (a) What are the identified risks within Region 4? (b) What are the response limitations of the jurisdictions within Region 4? (c) What are the current response capabilities of Regional Response Team 4? (d) What response capabilities could Regional Response Team 4 develop to fill the needs of the jurisdictions in Region 4? Internet and written sources were utilized to gather information on risks and response capabilities. Interviews were conducted with emergency management and emergency response agencies within Region 4. Interviews were conducted with Wyoming agencies and regional response teams to examine response capabilities. Recommendations were made on response capabilities Regional Response Team 4 could develop.
