III. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS

A. General

Emergency Operations span three separate but contiguous phases: emergency response, recovery and mitigation phases of a disaster. For the purposes of this plan, this concept of operations will focus on emergency response and relief efforts and measures to be taken for a smooth transition into intermediate and long-term recovery from a major or catastrophic emergency. Organizational charts and matrixes have been provided in the Appendix 4 to show the county’s responsibility and the coordination between local agencies and the ESF’s. In addition, the scope of these operational concepts and response actions will include:

1. Providing emergency notification and warning.

2. Describing emergency mobilization procedures.

3. Delineating emergency decision-making processes.

4. Describing types and methods of implementation of emergency protective actions.

5. Conducting rapid assessments of emergency impacts and immediate emergency resource needs.

6. Providing security to the hardest hit areas.

7. Coordinating information and instructions to the public.

8. Conducting emergency relief operations to ensure victims have been identified and that their needs are met.

9. Conducting PDAs to determine the need for federal assistance.

10. Summarizing procedures for requesting federal disaster assistance.

11. Relaxation of protective actions and coordination of reentry into evacuated areas.

12. Restoration of essential public facilities and services.

13. Preparing for federal disaster assistance (public and individual).

14. Coordination of resources and materials.

15. Coordination of volunteer organizations.

16. Dissemination of information and instructions to the public.

17. Restoration of public infrastructure damaged by the emergency.
The EOC serves as the central command and control point for emergency-related operations and activities and requests for deployment of resources. In the event the EOC is threatened, an Alternate EOC is activated. The locations of the primary and secondary EOC are listed below:
Primary:

Levy County Emergency Management

9010 NE 79th Ave, Bronson, Florida 32621

[phone], Lat/Long 29°27.4908 N / 82°38.2906 W

Secondary:

Levy County Courthouse

355 South Court Street, Bronson, FL 32621

[phone] Lat/Long: 29°26.4543 N / 82°38.0833 W

The County must be able to respond quickly and effectively to developing events. When an event or potential event is first detected, the EOC initiates Level III activation (monitoring). Communications is maintained between the EOC and the State Emergency Operations Center (SEOC).
While emergency response actions necessary to protect public health and safety are being implemented, the Policy Group will coordinate with the EMD, who will work with the ESF’s to make preparations to facilitate the rapid deployment of resources, activate the County's Emergency Operations Center if necessary and implement this plan.
Operations Staff in the EOC and ESF representatives will contact the designated emergency coordinators in affected municipalities to begin to identify needed and anticipated resources and contact persons. Resource requests, which exceed the capability of the County, will be forwarded to the State EOC by the Emergency Management Director.
The goal for each ESF is to have at least three individuals who are fully trained and capable of performing their duties and responsibilities in the EOC. It is essential that we are able to staff the EOC for each activated ESF. Realizing of course, that each situation is different and depending on the scope of the disaster/emergency, not all ESF’s may be activated or require 24 hour staffing. It is expected that due to the size of the county and availability of staff, outside resources would be necessary to conduct 24 hour staffing after 2 days in anything that more than a minor disaster.
