The Coast Guard's Ninth District Response Division's Incident Management Branch oversees the response to all major incidents within the Great Lakes, including search and rescue, environmental, maritime law enforcement, and defense readiness, as well as ports and waterways security. It is imperative that all personnel and resources are trained and organized to respond to emergencies, regardless of size or type. This readiness enables all active duty, reserve, auxiliary, and civilian personnel to respond not only within the Ninth District, but to any national or international incident where such skilled personnel are needed.
