Principal Responsibilities Provide direction and technical planning assistance to local governments as they develop their All-hazard Emergency Operations Plans. Collect data from a variety of sources to analyze and guide initial recommendations. Develop a prototype for local governments to use when writing their All-hazard Emergency Operations Plan.
Plan covers flooding, hazardous materials spills, forest fires and other disasters.
Research local resources such as fire, rescue and law enforcement agencies, hospitals, producers and transporters of hazardous waste, and environmental and structural engineers and incorporate these resources into the plan. Incorporate reception and protection of citizens from other jurisdictions who have evacuated because of the threats of or actual disasters. Research the economic and social impact of proposed plans. The plans developed and implemented by Planners Intermediate may have regional or statewide impact, but they will not have the technical planning depth and breadth typical of higher classes in the series. In the benchmark, for example, many facets of Emergency Operations Plans can be patterned from past years and among governmental jurisdictions.
