Department of Homeland Security Prepares for Midwest Disaster

This blog post is a little off topic but I find this information to be very interesting.  The Dept. of Homeland Security is preparing for a disaster in the New Madrid fault zone region.

DHS has requested a supplier of meals for disaster victims: http://www.fbodaily.com/archive/2011/01-January/22-Jan-2011/FBO-023...

They have also requested a supply of water: http://www.fbodaily.com/archive/2011/01-January/22-Jan-2011/FBO-023...

Also DHS is requesting a supplier for blankets: https://www.fbodaily.com/archive/2011/01-January/22-Jan-2011/83-src...

They are looking for someone to train an urban rescue team (including equipment and rescue dogs): http://www.fbodaily.com/archive/2011/01-January/12-Jan-2011/FBO-023...

They are requesting a supplier of canine food (TSA): https://www.fbodaily.com/archive/2011/01-January/21-Jan-2011/FBO-02...

And this may not be related, but they are also moving FEMA trailers from Baton Rogue to southern Mississippi:   https://www.fbo.gov/index?s=opportunity&mode=form&id=2ab928...

It is clear that The Department of Homeland Security is investing a lot of money in preparation for a major disaster within the U.S.  The time frame on these requests are relatively short.  What do they know?  Is there an earthquake coming?
