Yes I can see how it would be a horrible idea for the state to try and ensure the people they are allowing into a disaster area have a minimum degree of competence. As well as have some clue as to the chain of command works in disaster response so they can work with the first responders efficiently. Because lord knows everyone who owns a boat in Louisiana is perfectly capable of going into a chaotic situation, save the day, and not getting themselves in trouble. That would never happen.
