Concept of Operations All disast aster ers star art t & end locall lly and are managed on a daily basis at the closest possible geographical, organizational and jurisdictional level Commi mmitme tment: t: To provide a four-tie tiered red respon sponse se to any major disaster which is: Locally lly cent ntere ered, Regio gionally nally augment mented, ed, Stat ate e backed & Federally rally assis sisted ed, Where all Counties have some capability to respond to significant events.

Local Role  Local governments (counties or municipalities) respond to daily emergencies  Use own resources OR OR  Use mutual aid (via agreements w/other jurisdictions)  If beyond local capability, EM director can request state assistance  Request made through NCEM

State Role  NCEM backs local governments  Provides state resources such as SAR teams, RRT, staffing help, etc.  Use mutual aid (via EMAC or agreements with other states)  Provides training & funding support

Federal Role  If beyond state capability, governor can request federal assistance  Request made through FEMA  FEMA may pre-position with NCEM for large storms  FEMA provides resources and funds for disaster response & recovery  FEMA leads recovery efforts on federally-declared disasters

Our role is consequence management  Search and Rescue  Provide Mass Care  Protect Life and Property  Provide Incident Management  Supplement Local Resources  Help Communities Recover

Experienced Possibilities •  Hurricanes Drought •  Winter Storms Pandemic Flu •  Tornadoes Chemical /Biological Attack •  Floods Nuclear Attack •  Hazardous Material Spills School Attack •  Forest Fires Infrastructure/System Failures •  Earthquake Nuclear Power Issue •  Transportation Accidents Airplane Crash •  Water System Failures Animal Disease •  Missing Persons Food Contamination

Actions During Emergencies  Evaluate required resources  Activate State EOC – including all SERT partners  Dispatch requested state resources; coordinate and manage the resources  Governor declares a State of Emergency  Notify FEMA re: EOC activities/level  Establish County Receiving and Distribution Points  Identify additional needed resources  Use WebEOC, our critical incident management system  Coordinate resources with other states  Demobilize response & transition to recovery

Activation Levels Level 5 – Normal Operations Level 4 – Local Event; some support Level 3 – Partial Activation Level 2 – Full Activation Level 1 – Full Activation + Federal Support
