Within a reasonable time the initial participants will have a well developed EVAC program providing General Aviation facilities to the public for emergency service and having established links to all aviation facilities in adjoining states. The plan for subsequent full national implementation is in the process of development and implementation. The Emergency Volunteer Air Corps is a national organization, incorporated in California as a non profit public benefit corporation. This enhances the ability of chapters to attract membership and to participate with others in a well coordinated national effort. The relationship between the national organization and the chapters is seen as one of cooperative partnership and mutual support furthering the attainment of common objectives.
Local affairs are under the control of the local chapter.
Operational procedures and manuals are tailored to the needs and capabilities of each community and its emergency services infrastructure. EVAC provides a national guidelines manual which is the basis of most chapters' own manuals. Normally chapters are formed to conduct EVAC activities at an airport or group of airports at which EVAC Units will operate. The chapter works with the local community to coordinate EVAC's General Aviation emergency services in that area. Local membership rules must be non-exclusive, meeting the public service requirements and objectives of the Emergency Volunteer Air Corps.
