B. Department of Emergency Management.

Explanation:

Government can be defined as a body of leadership and procedures for enforcing rules and regulations in a society.

The Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD) 5 established the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and it is mandated to provide a consistent nationwide approach by working together effectively and efficiently as a single, comprehensive management program to prepare for, respond to, and recover from domestic incidents and emergencies, regardless of cause, size, or complexity.

National Incident Management System (NIMS) is a comprehensive, national approach to domestic incident and emergency management for governments (federal, state and local), the private sector, non-governmental organizations, families and individuals that is applicable at all jurisdictional levels and across functional disciplines.

Generally, the Department of Emergency Management would be included in a state government's public safety function.
