The correct answer for the exercise: Which General Staff member prepares Incident Action Plans, manages information, and maintains situational awareness for the incident? Is: A) Planning Section Chief

Explanation:

To understand this answer we have to analyze the role of the planning section chief. First of all, we need a staff member that prepares incident action planes, manages information and maintains situational awareness of the event. First of all the finance/administration section chief is discarded because we don't need someone with the ability to manage the resources to the action. Then we have the logistics section chief which could only help us with the information and is distribution. However we have later the Operations section chief, who seems really promising nevertheless he or she would only help us managing with the execution of the plans we have, so he would not be able to plan them before the situation happens, finally, our correct staff member is the Planning Section chief because as planning says he would plan, manage the information, and also maintain awareness for the incident.
