The Federal Emergency Management Agency is soliciting
companies to provide operational support for a “motor coach evacuation
of the general population” of the United States in response to a
declared emergency or a natural disaster.

The solicitation originally appeared on the FedBizOpps website back in October but was recently revised after businesses began asking FEMA questions about the contract.
“This is a synopsis for a single indefinite-delivery,
indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract to obtain evacuation planning and
operational support to facilitate a motor coach evacuation of the
general population in response to Presidential-Declared Emergencies and
Major Disasters within the continental United States,” states the
solicitation.
Attachments to the solicitation provide more details,
including of how FEMA requires companies to provide security at “a
staging and operational area in the event of a no-notice, life
threatening event that requires the contractor’s immediate or rapid
deployment.”
One scenario outlined in the documents is a massive
hurricane striking Florida and the Louisiana-Texas-coast which would
mandate the evacuation of thousands of citizens in the affected areas.
The document notes that even in the event of a
presidential declaration of emergency and an official evacuation order,
“Many people (would) refuse to evacuate.”
Last week we reported on
how FEMA was preparing for a pandemic by seeking, “vendors that can
potentially provide either dumpster service and/or bio-medical waste
collection and removal services during emergency response events within
the Continental United States.”
Although FEMA would argue that its job is to prepare for
every kind of national emergency that could possibly be envisaged, such
actions routinely prompt concerns from some that such crises could be
exploited to justify unconstitutional actions.
During Hurricane Katrina, law enforcement disarmed residents even
in the high and dry areas, with police telling citizens, “No one will
be able to be armed. We will take all weapons. Only law enforcement will
be allowed to have guns.”
As we have documented,
networks of emergency detention camps have been constructed across the
United States, despite the fact that the media treats such claims as
baseless conspiracy theories.
In 2006, Halliburton subsidiary KBR was awarded a contract by
the Department of Homeland Security to build detention centers designed
to deal with “an emergency influx of immigrants into the U.S.,” or the
rapid development of unspecified “new programs” that would require large
numbers of people to be interned.
In December 2011, we received a document from
a state government employee confirming that KBR was seeking
sub-contractors to staff and outfit “emergency environment” camps
located in five regions of the United States.
During the Iran-Contra hearings it was revealed that the
U.S. government had secret plans to detain large numbers of American
citizens considered to be “national security threats” under Rex 84,
short for Readiness Exercise 1984.
In 2006 we revealed how a FEMA program was
training pastors to teach their congregations to “obey the government”
in preparation for a declaration of martial law, property and firearm
seizures, and forced relocation.
