Illinois Emergency Management Agency and Office of Homeland Security (IEMA-OHS)
2/17/23 - Governor JB Pritzker submitted an Executive Order to change the official name of the Illinois Emergency Management Agency to the Illinois Emergency Management Agency and Office of Homeland Security (IEMA-OHS). This aligns more with what the Federal Government is doing with FEMA being under Homeland Security.
- The state utilizes redundant systems employing HF, VHF Low,VHF High, UHF, 700/800 MHz conventional radio and 700/800MHz Project 25 trunked radio platform (STARCOM21) in fixed and mobile configurations, amateur radio, microwave, satellite, Illinois Century Network (ICN), digital messaging and common carrier telephone/cellular systems.
- The primary IEMA Operations Center is located at 2200 South Dirksen Parkway, Springfield IL.
- The alternate IEMA Operations Center is located at 4800 Rodger Street, Springfield IL

- 11 operating commercial nuclear power reactors at six sites generate about 50 percent of Illinois' electricity. There are also three commercial nuclear power reactors no longer operating: two at Zion and one at Dresden. In addition, there is an inactive reprocessing facility near Morris, Illinois. (Over 440 nuclear power reactors generate about one-sixth of the world's electricity. Over 100 power reactors generate about 22 percent of the Nation's electricity.)
In Illinois electricity is generated by two types of power reactors: Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs) and Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs). BWRs are located at the Dresden, Clinton, LaSalle, and Quad Cities Stations; PWRs, at the Braidwood and Byron Stations.
Radiological Emergency Response (RTF)
- Responds to nuclear power plant and other radiological emergencies in Illinois. The RTF consists of two components, the Radiological Emergency Assessment Center (REAC) in Springfield and the Radiological Response Group (RRG). REAC provides an independent assessment of the event, develops dose projections, and provides protective action recommendations for the public to the State Emergency Operations Center. To confirm the projections performed in REAC, RAFT personnel are dispatched to the affected area to measure radiation in the environment, collect environmental samples, ensure contamination control and sample chain of custody, analyze samples and coordinate with other field responders
