Answer:

C. ICS provides a structure for organizing field-level operations for a broad spectrum of incidents.

Explanation:

ICS was designed by recognizing the key activities or functions needed to effectively and efficiently respond to incidents. Examination of incident reports and the review of military organizations were all utilized in ICS development.

This analysis recognizes the elementary needs of incidents. As incidents became more complicated, complex, expensive, difficult and the need for an organizational manager became more obvious. Hence, in ICS, and particularly in bigger incidents, the Incident Commander is to manage the organization and not the incident.
