Response Activities. Grantee may not receive payment or reimbursement of costs for response activities when a state mission assignment has not been issued. State mission assignments will be issued when local and/or regional resources, including HPP/Emergency Medical Task Force EMTF Grantee resources, are not sufficient to meet the needs of the response. Furthermore, Grantee may not receive payment or reimbursement of costs for System Agency assets, held by the Grantee, that are deployed in a response outside of the costs associated with deploying and demobilizing the assets under a state mission assignment, and the costs of restoring the asset to deployable condition. Any System Agency assets lost or destroyed during deployment will be reported to System Agency.
Response Activities. In partnership with OHA, the Northwest Portland Indian Health Board (NPAIHB), and the local public health authority, Grantee must ensure that Grantee clients and community served have access to COVID-19 testing, outreach and education, and isolation supports, as applicable and resources are available.
Response Activities. The American National Red Cross will work to ensure that during a disaster relief operation the Red Cross chapter, disaster relief operation and the local CIL work together to share expertise, problem solve, and identify and address unmet access and functional needs.
a. Pre-disaster planning
i. The most important step in this process is for the CIL and the Red Cross chapter/region to each identify a Point of Contact (POC) for the local partnership. To find a local CIL or Red Cross chapter, refer to section 2 – Engagement at the Local Level.
ii. Suggestions for pre-disaster planning are: CILs participating in accessibility surveys for shelters CILs will offer guidance on improving accessibility in shelters How and when CILs will be engaged in a disaster response. How CILs can provide assistance: • staffing a hot-line • outreach services • access to shelters Both organizations will collaborate to identify qualified sign language interpreters in their community. If the need arises during a disaster event, it will be the responsibility of the disaster relief operation to provide a sign language interpreter either in person or by video remote interpreting (VRI). Any expense incurred will be the responsibility of the disaster relief operation. Referrals from both organizations Identify training each organization can provide to the other. Two Red Cross websites provide more information about disaster relief services and Red Cross history and services. • ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/what-we-do/disaster-relief • ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/support/volunteer/getting-started Participation in joint drills, exercises and/or planning activities NCIL or CIL’s may provide expertise in areas such as feedback on the Red Cross durable medical equipment (DME) inventory.
b. A leadership position will be created in the disaster relief operational structure during large disasters to share expertise, problem solve, identify and address unmet access and functional needs.
c. The national Red Cross will invite a NCIL representative to the disaster operations coordination center (DOCC) in Washington, DC during large scale disasters, i.e. - disasters affecting multiple states. Red Cross chapters are encouraged to invite a local CIL representative to the disaster relief operation headquarters to strengthen coordination during response and recovery efforts as well.
d. CIL representative access to Red Cross operated shelters
Response Activities a. In response to disasters and/or emergencies, the <MRC Unit Name> and <Red Cross Region/Chapter> will partner to address the immediate needs of affected communities, including providing the following support services:
i. Sheltering (e.g., managing shelters, providing health and mental health services)
ii. Feeding (e.g., in shelters, on mobile routes, at fixed sites in the impacted communities)
iii. Supporting Family Assistance Centers (e.g., managing family assistance centers, providing health and mental health services)
iv. Supporting Multi-Agency Resource Centers (e.g., serving as ambassadors, providing health and mental health services)
Response Activities a. General response to emergencies and disasters typically begins with a single agency or jurisdiction. As the incident expands or local resources are expended, the response effort expands. However, some incidents require an immediate, large-scale response. In either case, accountability and management of resources is a major concern. The IC or UC structures are vital to the operation, and must be implemented immediately. A prompt and ongoing size-up is critical, so that necessary resources can be requested and dispatched quickly, and coordinated goals and objectives can be developed. Initial response actions must include coordination with law enforcement and other agencies that may be needed to assure emergency access to the scene, traffic control and preventing access to the general public. A staging area must be identified, and a staging officer designated. Other traffic and transportation safety issues should also be addressed.
b. The IC should make an early request for EOC or emergency management assistance or support, to allow for response time of staff and/or the incident escalating faster than anticipated. Mutual aid agencies and departments must work within the established ICS, while maintaining authority/control of their equipment and personnel. At the point when the incident has become multi-jurisdictional or multi- agency, a unified command may be established.
c. If volunteer groups or citizens are assisting fire services and/or EMS, the IC must assign a person to supervise and monitor them. Accountability of volunteers is a significant safety issue, as is assuring that volunteers are given some basic information on how to do their assigned tasks and are aware of basic safety and emergency procedures.
d. County EOC/Department of Emergency Management
e. The decision to activate the county EOC may be made by DEM staff when a need or potential need for EOC assistance has been identified. The IC may also request activation of the EOC or support from DEM staff. The EOC will provide support and assistance as needed, and will maintain liaison with the State EOC as necessary.
Response Activities a. To communicate with the WAEMD via CEMNET radio, F-1, will be used.
b. Upon activation of the EOC for an emergency or disaster, DEM/EOC Manager will perform the following:
1) Request communications support as needed.
2) Notify local ARES/RACES Emergency Coordinator and Assistance Emergency Coordinator(s).
3) Notify WAEMD, and establish primary and backup communications with them.
4) Establish communications with local agencies and departments, and ensure all agencies with communications capabilities and responsibilities are advised of conditions, and are taking appropriate actions such as verifying current status of resources and personnel.
5) Determine overall operational status of communications resources, provide coordination, and maintain priorities for handling of messages and communications traffic within the EOC, and between EOC and field operations. Establish communications with adjacent counties, if necessary.
6) Coordinate specific locations where backup or support communications need to be established, such as hospitals, medical clinics, nursing homes, group homes, schools, daycare facilities, communities without phone service, response agencies, etc.
7) Set-up/deploy Command Repeater, if needed. INTRODUCTION To provide guidance for rapid alerting and warning to key local jurisdiction officials and the general public of an impending or occurring emergency or disaster.
1. General Emergency or disaster warnings may originate from any level of government or other sources. However, most forecasting resources are located within the federal government, and may include watches and warnings for: floods, mud slides, severe weather, volcanic eruptions, fixed nuclear facility incidents, hazardous materials incidents, as well as earthquake occurrence notification. This notification may come from the National Weather Service (NWS), the Emergency Alert System, Washington State Emergency Management, the amateur radio community, the Klickitat County Communications Center, or the general public. The National Alert and Warning System (NAWAS), established by the federal government, is the primary means of disseminating warnings concerning national threats, in addition to the hazards listed above. The primary receiving point for NAWAS is at Grand Coulee. Grand Coulee contacts Klickitat Dispatch via telephone. The Klickitat County alert notification system is coordinated by Klickitat County DEM. The system is a cooperative effort between local law enforcement, fir...
Response Activities a. The priority of transportation resources will be assigned based on protection of:
