Need help with a true and false question regarding emergency/disasters

The agency administrator does not need to ensure that the organization's emergency and disaster plan is compatible with the plan in the community where the agency is located.

A. True

B. False

I did some research and wikipedia says "The agency's primary purpose is to coordinate the response to a disaster that has occurred in the United States and that overwhelms the resources of local and state authorities. "

​Does that mean it's false?

    Well, I wouldn't be going to Wikipedia as a source. It can be edited by anyone and isn't necessarily correct information. It can, however, guide you to reliable sources through the citations.

    There are some things you need to consider when talking about emergency plans: is just the facility affected? How might the community be affected by an emergency at a facility? Think about that, and then tell us what you think the answer is.

    The American College of Healthcare Executives believes healthcare executives should actively participate in disaster planning and preparedness activities, striving to ensure their emergency operations plan fits within overall community plans and represents a responsible approach to the risks an organization might face.

    Did more research from a reliable source, and I def believe it's false now.
