Organization of the plan:
The plan utilizes the combination of accepted emergency response practices, ICS (Incident Command System), and SEMS/NIMS (Standardized Emergency Management System /National Incident Management System). The SEMS structure is incorporated as a means to simplify interactions with all agencies involved in emergency response and disaster preparedness. All federal and state agencies are required to utilize this structure and FEMA (the Federal Emergency Management Agency) requires its use as one condition of reimbursement eligibility. Because the plan provides a continuum of levels of activation, it can be utilized for incidents ranging from those of limited outcome, site, or problem, up to and including large events with potential for large loss.
Types of events the plan addresses:
- Earthquakes
- Floods
- Fires
- Medical Disaster
- Drought
- Extreme Weather/Storms
- Civil Disturbance
- Terrorism
- Active Shooter
- Transportation Incident
- Landslide
