Any party jurisdiction requested to render mutual aid or conduct exercises and training for mutual aid shall take such action as is necessary to provide and make available the resources covered by this compact in accordance with the terms of this compact, except that it is understood that the party jurisdiction rendering aid may withhold resources to the extent necessary to provide reasonable protection for that party jurisdiction. Each party jurisdiction shall afford to the emergency forces of any party jurisdiction, while operating within its jurisdiction limits under the terms and conditions of this compact and under the control of an officer of the requesting party jurisdiction, the same powers, duties, rights, privileges and immunities as are afforded similar or like forces of the party jurisdiction in which they are performing emergency services. Emergency forces continue under the command and control of their regular leaders, but the organizational units come under the operational control of the emergency services authorities of the party jurisdiction receiving assistance. These conditions may be activated, as needed, by the party jurisdiction that is to receive assistance or commencement of exercises or training for mutual aid and continue as long as the exercises or training for mutual aid are in progress, the emergency or disaster remains in effect or loaned resources remain in the receiving party jurisdiction or jurisdictions, whichever is longer.
