The First 24 Hours After an Emergency

All directors should go to the Tribal Center to establish the Emergency Operations Center (EOC)

The first director to arrive at the Tribal Center is the Incident Commander

Alternate Locations for EOC

If the Tribal Center is uninhabitable, the EOC will be established at an alternate location in the following order:

• Housing Authority

Building; or

• Senior Center; or
• Department of Children

and Family Services Building

As reports of damage, injuries or other neighborhood problems come in, the Incident Commander decides what needs to be done and in what order.

As more people arrive, the Incident Commander may relinquish responsibilities to a person trained or more qualified to serve as the Incident Commander.

Telephones and Radio for receiving information Status Board, chart or easel for recording information Information Board or space for posting information Chairs and a resource table for processing information
