Tell us about five different critical infrastructures. How are they at risk? How can you protect the five infrastructures you picked?Please provide at least two references to support your answersManagingRisk: Tools and Methodologies; Assessment and Countermeasures Critical Infrastructure Sectors Transportation and Water and Wastewater SystemsEmbedded in much of your readings about the various CIKR sectors is the continuing issue of risk. It is an everyday occurrence and we get it in many forms, uses, and contexts. As homeland security professionals and as members of the concerned public trying to keep up with current events, you cannot assume you fully understand a topic as serious as this one without something more than a dictionary definition of the word. Floods, fires, storms, tornadoes, and other forms of natural disasters, as well as those created by mankind, all create huge risks for us. Now you are beginning to understand how risk, threat, and warning are an important part of our lives.This week we are going to focus onmanagingrisk. To manage risk, you first have to know how to access risk, and how it is important to think intuitively about the countermeasures (mitigation) that are important to the viability, durability, and resilience of our infrastructure. Recent events have shown how vulnerable our infrastructure is, but it has also shown what happens in other areas (like Puerto Rico) that’s infrastructure is fragile and where it takes many months and a significant amount of money to rebuild roads, bridges, and electrical systems. Though the Minneapolis Bridge collapse happened 10 years ago, it is a good example of how fragile some of our bridges are in our transportation infrastructure. We will also be looking at another sector, water and wastewater.Read in the classroom:Minetree, P. (2017, December 27) Risk.Read:

What do you think the legacy of the Obama administration will be with regards to federalism and intergovernmental relations?

For this chapter’s discussion, it again comes in two sections. For the first part of the discussion, briefly describe the models of Federalism, systems of authority, and the “Iron Triangle”.Next, consider the description of the expansion (or contraction) of federalism under our last few presidents – Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, and Bush II. The text leaves off with what it presumes to be the legacy of George W. Bush with regards to intergovernmental relations. Since this text was constructed, the United States had eightyears of the Obama administration and four years of the Trump administration. We also saw a significant amount of friction between the federal and state levels of government over the last several months, with significant pressure from some federal authorities to alter or overturn election certifications in states, and several states attempting to thwart the vote certification of other states.What do you think the legacy of theObama administration will be with regards to federalism and intergovernmental relations? What models of authority or federalism will the Obama administration be known for? Finally,what do you predictPresident Trump’s effect on federalism will be now that his term of office has concluded (with today, perhaps fittingly, being Inauguration Day)?
