C. Communications-The media through which early detection, alerting, control support, and coordination are maintained throughout the SAR system. D. Emergency Care-Emergency medical treatment at the distress scene, and life support enroute route to a medical facility. E. Documentation-The collection and analysis of SAR case information. Figure 1-1. SAR System {1} 103 National Search and Rescue Plan (NSP) The United States SAR system is implemented by the National Search and Rescue Plan (NSP) to provide greater protection of life and ensure efficient and effective SAR response. See Appendix A. 104 National SAR Manual (NSM) The National SAR Plan is implemented by the National SAR Manual (NSM). This manual 1-1
consolidates the information needed to effectively conduct SAR missions, and provides for the activation of components in stages as needed. 105 SAR Stages The designated SAR stages define the nature of SAR assistance provided at any particular time. A mission may not necessarily include each and every stage, or the stages may overlap. The major stages are: A. Awareness-Knowledge by any person or agency that an emergency situation may exist. B. Initial Action-Preliminary action taken to alert SAR facilities and obtain amplifying information. This stage may include evaluation and classification of the information, alerting of SAR facilities, preliminary communication checks (PRECOM), extended communication checks (EXCOM), and in urgent cases, immediate action from other stages. C. Planning-The development of operational plans, including plans for search, rescue, and final delivery. D. Operations-Sending SRUs to the scene, conducting searches, rescuing survivors, assisting distressed craft, providing necessary emergency care for survivors, and delivering casualties to medical facilities. E. Mission Conclusion-Return of SRUs to a location where they are finally debriefed, refueled, replenished, remanned, and prepared for other missions, and completion of documentation of the SAR mission by all SAR facilities. 110 SAR ORGANIZATION The three major elements of the SAR organization are: A. Defined geographic areas and regions of SAR coordination responsibility, each with its own SAR Coordinator and SAR plan. B. A centralized RCC within each defined region. C. A SAR mission organization for each defined area and region. 120 GEOGRAPHIC SAR ORGANIZATION A. A SAR Coordinator is the agency or official within a given area or region responsible for the SAR organization and coordination of SAR operations. A SAR Coordinator may have more than one RCC, with each serving a Search and Rescue Region (SRR), or multiple RSCs with each serving a Search and Rescue Sector (SRS). SAR Coordinator functions are described in more detail in paragraph 131 and the National Search and Rescue Plan. B. As party to both the International Maritime Organization (IMO)
