Interstate Emergency Services Mutual Aid Act

The act enables agencies that provide emergency services to enter into mutual aid agreements with counterparts in other states, so that personnel and resources can be shared across state lines. It authorizes those agreements and prescribes what they must contain, and requires each one to be submitted to the attorney general and filed, while allowing participating entities to appropriate funds to carry out their obligations. It also places limits on the powers conferred, makes clear that entering an agreement does not relieve an agency of its own duties, preserves the state's rights in legal actions arising from such agreements, and addresses how the act operates alongside other law.
