BASIC PLAN
I. INTRODUCTION
The Town of Marana (TOM), in accordance with Arizona Revised Statutes (ARS), Title 26,
Chapter 2, Article 1, and TOM Code Chapter 2-3 Section 2-3-4 (E) is required to prepare and
respond to emergencies/disasters in order to save lives and protect public health and property.
TOM Resolution #2005-106 adopted the National Incident Management System (NIMS) as
the standard for incident management.
The TOM Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) (this plan) addresses the consequences of any
emergency/disaster in which there is a need for TOM response and recovery assistance. It is
applicable to natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods, technological emergencies
involving hazardous material releases, and other incidents requiring TOM assistance.
This plan describes the methods the TOM will use to mobilize resources and conduct
response and recovery activities. It uses a functional approach to group the types of assistance
under thirteen (13) Emergency Support Functions (ESFs). Each ESF is lead by one or more
primary agencies, which have been selected based on their authorities, resources and
capabilities. Other agencies have been designated as support agencies for one or more ESF(s)
based on their resources and capabilities to support the functional areas. The ESFs serve as
the primary mechanism through which TOM response and recovery assistance will be
provided.
The implementation response activities of this plan serve as the foundation for the
development of detailed TOM Department plans and procedures in a timely and efficient
manner.
A. Purpose
1. Establish the TOM emergency response and recovery organization for
emergencies/disasters.
2. Describe TOM response to and recovery from an emergency/disaster.
3. Describe the organization, assign responsibilities and provide planning
guidance to TOM agencies for disaster response/recovery.
4. Describe county/state/federal/private programs for individual and public
disaster assistance.
B. Scope
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
3 of 83
1. This plan applies to all TOM Departments which are tasked to provide
response and recovery assistance. It describes TOM actions to be taken in
providing immediate response assistance.
2. Local government means any incorporated community, unincorporated
community and special district located within the county.
3. Emergency response assistance includes those actions and activities that save
lives, protect public health and safety, and protect property. The identified
actions and activities in this plan, carried out under the ESFs, are based on
existing TOM, County, State and Federal statutory authorities or on specific
functional mission assignments made under the provisions ofPL 93-288, as
amended; ARS Title 26, Chapter 2, as amended; and as identified in the ESF
Annexes to this plan.
4. This plan addresses TOM/County/State/Federal recovery assistance programs.
Recovery activities may be conducted concurrently with response activities.
5. An emergency/disaster may result in a situation that affects the national
security ofthe United States. For those instances, appropriate security
authorities and procedures will be utilized to address national security
requirements.
C. Organization
This plan consists of the following:
1. The Basic Plan describes the purpose, scope, situation and concept of
operations of TOM response activity.
2. The Functional Annexes to the Basic Plan are identified as ESFs. Each ESF
describes the policies, situation, planning assumptions, concept of operations
and responsibilities for the primary and support response organizations.
II. POLICIES
A. Authorities
1. Under the TOM Code, Chapter 2-3-4 (E) through this plan, the Mayor may
direct any TOM Department to utilize its authorities and resources in order to
save lives and protect public health and prooerty.
2. Response by TOM Departments to lifesaving and life protecting requirements
under this plan has precedence over other TOM response activities, except
where national security implications are determined to be of a higher priority.
Support from TOM Departments in response to national emergencies will be
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
4 of 83
provided to the extent that it does not conflict with other emergency missions
that TOM Departments are required to perform.
B. Assignments
This plan provides standing mission assignments to designate Departments with
primary and support responsibilities. Those Departments designated as primary
agencies serve under the Mayor, or his designee, in accomplishing the ESF missions.
Upon activation of an ESF, a TOM Department is authorized in coordination with the
Mayor, or his designee, to initiate and continue actions to carry out the ESF missions.
This may include tasking of designated support agencies to carry out assigned ESF
mISSIOns.
C. Donations
1. TOM government encourages financial contributions to private nonprofit
voluntary organizations involved in disaster relief, rather than the specific
donation of clothing, food and other goods. Should goods or services be
offered, the TOM will coordinate the transportation and distribution of only
those donations it accepts for use. To facilitate this policy, the TOM may issue
appropriate press releases in conjunction with the Arizona Voluntary
Organizations Active in Disaster (AzVOAD). A central phone number will be
established (or tied in with the FEMA toll-free number established) for
handling donation inquiries and the Donations Coordinator will set up a
database for recording offers of goods and volunteers.
2. A Donations Coordinator will be designated by the Mayor, or his designee, to
work with AzVOAD and the Emergency Support Functions Primary Agencies
(ESFP As) in managing donations. The Donations Coordinator will ensure that
a database is made available to the ESFs to identify needed goods and services
or to respond to offers of goods and services. Should an ESFP A wish to take
advantage of the offer of donation items/service, that ESFP A will request that
the Coordinator to make the donations/services available.
D. Non-liability
1. The TOM will not be liable for any claim based upon the exercise or
performance, or the failure to exercise or perform, a discretionary function or
duty on the part of its political subdivisions or any employee of its political
subdivisions, excepting willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith of
any such employee, in carrying out the provisions of this plan. ARS 26-314
also covers volunteers and employees of another municipality, county, or state
rendering aid in the TOM.
2. ARS 26-314 and 26-353 provides immunity to licensed, certified or authorized
emergency responders and their employees at the scene of an emergency, when
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
5 of 83
the emergency response is provided in good faith. Furthermore, this immunity
applies to governmental entities, multi-jurisdictional planning organizations
that encompass each district, members of each local emergency planning
committee and their support personnel in carrying out the provisions of this
article.
E. Mutual Aid
1. ARS 26-309 establishes the following provisions for mutual aid:
a. Facilitates the rendering of aid to persons or property in areas within
the TOM/county/state stricken by an emergency and to make
unnecessary the execution of written agreements in times of
emergency. Any emergency plan, duly adopted and approved, satisfies
the requirement for mutual aid agreements.
b. During an emergency, ifthe need arises for outside aid in any county,
city or TOM, such aid may be rendered in accordance with approved
emergency plans.
F. Emergency Public Information
Emergency public information activities will be undertaken to ensure the coordinated,
timely and accurate release of a wide range of information to the news media and to
the public about disaster related activities. These activities will be carried out from the
TOM EOC or from the Joint Information Center (lIC). They will be staffed with
federal (in the event of an emergency or major disaster declaration by the President),
state, county, local, and volunteer organizations and in some instances commercial
public information representatives. Information intended for the news media and the
public will be coordinated prior to release with the Federal Coordination Officer
(FCO)/State Coordination Officer (SCO), other county/state/federal agencies and local
officials.
G. After-Action Reports
Following TOM response to an emergency/disaster, the Mayor, or his designee, will
coordinate the preparation of an after-action report documenting the TOM response
effort. Within seven (7) workdays following the termination of a declared disaster,
each Department involved in the response effort will provide the Mayor, or his
designee, with an after-action report outlining that Department's involvement in the
disaster.
III. SITUATION AND ASSUMPTIONS
A. Disaster Condition
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
6 of 83
1. An emergency/disaster may overwhelm the capabilities of local government to
provide a timely and effective response. The occurrence of a catastrophic
event in a high-risk, high population area will cause casualties, property loss,
disruption of normal life support systems, and impact the regional economic,
physical and social infrastructures.
2. An emergency/disaster has the potential to cause substantial health and
medical problems, with the possibility of hundreds of deaths or injuries,
depending on factors such as time of occurrence, severity of impact, existing
weather conditions, area demographics and the nature of local building
construction. Deaths and injuries could occur from the collapse of man-made
structures and collateral events, such as fires and mudslides.
3. An emergency/disaster may cause significant damage to local economic and
physical infrastructure. Significant events can multiply property losses and
hinder the immediate response efforts by damaging or destroying highways,
airports, railways, communications, water, waste disposal, electrical power,
natural gas and petroleum transmission systems.
B. Planning Assumptions
1. An emergency/disaster will likely occur with little or no warning and may
produce casualties and widespread damage. This plan assumes that the
response capability ofthe affected local community may be quickly
overwhelmed.
2. A large number of casualties and/or the significant damage to buildings,
structures and the basic infrastructure will necessitate County, State and
possibly Federal government assistance to support local authorities in
conducting lifesaving and life-support efforts.
3. Minimization of deaths and injuries requires an immediate mobilization of
TOM, County, State and Federal search and rescue personnel, medical
personnel, and supplies and equipment to the area affected by the emergency.
C. Disaster Declaration Process
The provisions ofthis plan are applicable to all emergencies/disasters that require a
Proclamation of a State of Emergency by the Mayor, or his designee. Local
emergency/disaster activities and requests for disaster assistance will be made in
accordance with the following procedures:
1. TOM Government
a. When an emergency/disaster situation exceeds, or is likely to exceed
the scope of control and resources of the TOM considered essential for
an effective response/recovery, the Mayor, or his designee, may
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
7 of 83
proclaim a local emergency. The local emergency Proclamation shall
be forwarded to the Pima County Director, Office of Emergency
Management in an expedient manner, (i.e., voice followed by hard
copy).
b. When a local emergency has been proclaimed, the Mayor, or his
designee, will have the authority to govern by Proclamation and has
the authority to impose all necessary regulations to preserve the peace
and order of the TOM, including but not limited to:
· Imposing curfews in all or portions of the TOM
· Ordering the closure of any business
· Closing to public access any public building, street or other
public area
· Calling upon regular and/or auxiliary law enforcement agencies
and organizations
· Providing/requesting mutual aid to/from other political
subdivisions
· Obtaining commitments of local resources in accordance with
emergency plans
2. Federal Government
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) monitors developing or
actual disaster occurrences. Before, during and after a disaster, the FEMA
Regional Director is in close contact with the Arizona Governor's office and
Arizona Division of Emergency Management (ADEM), as well as with federal
agencies having disaster assistance responsibilities and capabilities. When
federal aid is needed, the Governor or Director, ADEM, will contact the
FEMA Regional Director for advice and assistance.
IV. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS
A. TOM Departments and personnel, when directed by the Mayor, or his designee, will
take actions to mobilize and deploy resources to assist in life, safety and property
protection efforts.
1. Each ESF identifies the combination of TOM Departments that will facilitate
the provision of response assistance.
2. Each ESF has been assigned a number of missions. The designated primary
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
8 of 83
Departments are responsible for managing the activities of the ESF and
ensuring that missions are accomplished. Primary departments have the
authority to execute response operations.
3. Department missions, organizational structures, response actions, primary and
support agency responsibilities are described in the ESFs.
4. Primary Departments will work with their support agencies to provide
assistance. Primary departments will use the ESF Annexes of the plan as a
basis for developing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
5. Support Departments will assist the primary Department in preparing and
maintaining SOPs and will provide support for ESF operations. Each support
agency will:
a. Designate two department staff members responsible for coordination
with the primary department for all actions related to this plan.
b. Participate in the process of exercising, reviewing, maintaining and
implementing this plan.
c. Provide qualified representatives to the TOM EOC or operational
locations as required.
6. The Mayor, or his designee, will coordinate TOM activities and assist in
identifying all response and recovery requirements.
7. The Mayor, or his designee, will oversee the TOM EOC response supporting
field operations.
8. Response under this plan will be based on situational needs to provide
response and recovery utilizing ESFs.
9. The majority of all disaster response organizations within the TOM operate
under the TOM Incident Command System (ICS) which complies with
National Incident Management System (NIMS).
B. Organization
Procedures under this plan are composed of county and local government and private
agencies. The response structure is designed to be flexible in order to accommodate
response and recovery requirements. County departments provide support to the TOM
Departments that implement on-scene response operations.
1. Community Response Structure
The TOM will produce an EOP in support of the Pima County EOP. The TOM
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
9 of 83
will be the initial responders to any incident located within its corporate limits.
The TOM's incorporated community response structure will contain the
following:
a. Mayor
b. Police Department
c. Fire Department
d. Emergency Medical
e. Public Works
f. Operations & Maintenance
g. Building Services
h. Information Technology
1. Emergency Management
J. Transportation
k. Parks/Recreation
C. Volunteer/Private Organization Response Structure
The TOM has a number of volunteer organizations that respond to emergencies/
disasters. The American Red Cross (ARC) and the Salvation Army take the lead in
most volunteer efforts. A large number of volunteer organizations including the ARC
and Salvation Army have aligned themselves with the Voluntary Organizations Active
in Disaster (VOAD Group). The Arizona VOAD Group is identified as AzVOAD.
Although each volunteer organization is a stand-alone group, they readily
communicate with each other, exchange ideas, supplies, equipment and volunteers.
AzVOAD is not a controlling group and membership is completely voluntary by the
organizations.
V. ORGANIZATIONAL ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
A. TOM Council and Departments
The Mayor, or his designee, may declare an emergency arising from disasters as
provided in this plan and incur liabilities for emergency response activities on behalf
ofthe TOM.

A. Purpose
1. To meet Pima County Hazardous Materials (HazMat) Emergency Planning
requirements.
2. To protect life and property from risks associated with the discharge, release
or misuse of HazMat by providing coordinated, effective, county support to
incorporated and unincorporated areas, and to coordinate with and request
assistance from state, federal and private organizations.
B. Scope
1. Provide detailed information needed for the effective coordination of
local/county/state/federal private resources involved in HazMat emergency
operations by:
a. Identifying the authorities, roles and responsibilities of county
agencIes;
b. Establishing coordination, command and control procedures; and
c. Describing criteria and procedures for requesting state/federal
assistance.
II. POLICY
A. The term HazMat is used in a generic sense to mean any chemical, substance, material
or waste which may pose, in an uncontrolled state, a risk to life, health, safety,
property or the environment and includes:
1. Hazardous materials as defined by United States Department of Transportation
(US DOT).

scene of HazMat incidents.
D. Pima County has a Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) consisting of
elected officials, fire and law enforcement officers, emergency responders, emergency
managers, media, community members, industry, transportation and medical
representatives. The LEPC is mandated to develop and implement comprehensive
emergency response plans regarding potential HazMat emergencies/disasters within
Pima County.

HazMat annex of the National Response Plan (NRP), EPA National Contingency Plan
(NCP) (40 CFR, part 300), United States Department of Energy (DOE) Federal
Radiological Emergency Response Plan (FRERP) or DOE's Region 4 Radiological
Assistance Plan (RAP).
IV. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS
A. General
1. Responsible parties and local response organizations will assess the situation
and utilize their available resources. When an assessment indicates that
additional resources are needed, the local government will request county
assistance.
B. ActivationINotification
1. Execution of this Plan and requests for assistance from county, state, federal
and private organizations become effective upon notification to the county that
a HazMat incident has occurred.
C. Response Actions
1. Local response actions
On-scene command and control is the responsibility of the jurisdiction in
which the incident occurs. The IC is in charge of all personnel at the scene.
Agencies will maintain supervisory control of their personnel. Local
emergency response agencies should make an immediate appraisal of the
situation and it's potential. USDOT's North American Emergency Response
Guidebook provides basic information to assist on-scene officials in selecting
protective actions. Responders should:
a. Establish scene management.
b. Detect the presence of HazMat.
c. Begin product identification.
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
510f83
d. Begin evacuation or direct in-place sheltering as appropriate.
e. Consider personal protection decontamination.
f. Isolate incident and identify zones of activity.
g. Contain incident without risking exposure.
h. Perform firefighting, rescue, and emergency medical and other critical
life saving response activities without undue concern regarding the
potential for radiation exposure or contamination.
J. Seek additional appropriate resources through the Pima County OEM if
the event exceeds, or is expected to exceed, the capability of local
resources, including mutual aid. Pima County OEM may request state
assistance through the State On-Scene Coordinator (SOSC) or the
Department of Public Safety (DPS) Duty Officer (DO).
2. Private sector actions
a. The private sector (e.g., Chemical Manufacturers Association (CMA),
facility operators, shippers, carriers, etc.) may be able to provide the IC
with technical advice/recommendations or provide specialized
personnel/equipment needed for response/recovery operations.
b. Private cleanup contractors under Pima County contract will initiate
HazMat cleanup and disposal at the direction ofthe IC.
c. Private entities (i.e., responsible parties) may use a contractor of their
choice.
3. Command and control
a. In accordance with 29 CFR 1910.1 20(q) (3), county response to
HazMat incidents will be managed under the Pima County Incident
Command System (PCICS). On-scene command and control is the
responsibility of the jurisdiction in which the incident occurs.
b. County response to HazMat incidents will be managed using PCICS
under three general circumstances:
(1)
Response to a local jurisdiction -When a local jurisdiction has
legal responsibility for response and is the IC, the Pima County
Office of Emergency Management Coordinator (OEM C) will
serve as a resource initially through the liaison officer at the
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
52 of 83
command post. Additional county resources may be assigned to
other functional areas within the command structure at the
direction of the IC. The IC will coordinate requests for county
assistance with the OEMC.
(2) Response to state lands -The state is responsible for incidents
occurring on state lands. In those situations, the state will be the
IC and direct responding state and other resources.
(3) Response by both the county and a political subdivision -When
legal responsibility rests with both the county and another
jurisdiction, the IC will be identified in coordination with the
PCICS.
4. Containment
Local and state emergency responders should minimize the spread of a spilled
material by preventing the material from:
a. Entering a body of water (e.g., lakes, streams, canals, etc.);
b. Spreading over land;
c. Entering sewer or drainage systems; and
d. Becoming airborne.
D. Continuing Actions
1. Recovery
a. The responsibility/liability for cleanup lies with the entity responsible
for the release/incident (40 CFR, part 300). Contamination should be
minimized and cleanup expedited by emergency responders.
b. Cleanup operations should be initiated using the following guidelines:
(1)
Cleanup will be initiated if there is an immediate threat to
public health and safety.
(2)
If the responsible party accepts responsibility, local/state
officials will monitor cleanup to ensure environmental
standards are met.
(3)
If the responsible party is unknown or refuses to accept
responsibility and local government does not have the
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
53 of 83
capability or funds for cleanup, the State on Scene Coordinator
(SOSC) will assess the situation. The SOSC will then request
use ofthe Governor's Emergency Fund (GEF), the Water
Quality Assurance Revolving Fund (WQARF) (ARS 49-2 82)
or other funding sources available through DEQ.
2. Additional notifications
a. Local response agencies and the SOSC will complete the Arizona
Hazardous Materials Incident Report Form.

of a Weapon of Mass Destruction (WMD) or terrorist incident.
B. Scope
1. TOM response to a terrorist incident includes three major components, which
may operate concurrently or consecutively.
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
a. Crisis management response involves measures to identify, acquire and
plan the use of resources to anticipate, prevent and/or resolve a terrorist
threat or incident. Crisis Management response is implemented under
the primary jurisdiction of the FBI, local law enforcement offices, and
64 of 83
the Department of Public Safety (DPS).
b. Consequence Management response:
(1) Involves measures to alleviate the damage, loss, and hardship or
suffering caused by emergencies.
(2) Includes measures to protect public health and safety, restore
essential government services and provide emergency relief to
affected county agencies and political subdivisions.
(3) Is implemented under the primary jurisdiction of the affected
political subdivision.
c. Technical operations constitute an important support component to the
Crisis Management and Consequence Management response to a
WMD incident and:
(1) Addresses aspects ofWMD material that is not encountered in
routine operations; and
(2) Involves measures to:
(a) Identify the WMD agent or device;
(b) Assess the threat posed;
(c) Provide consultation to decision makers;
(d) Render safe transfer/disposal; and
(e) Decontaminate responders/victims/environment.
II. POLICIES
A. United States policy on counter-terrorism establishes the framework for the roles,
responsibilities and coordination of responding agencies.
1. Pima County Sheriff s Department will be the Crisis Management Lead
County Agency (LCA).
2. The Arizona Department of Public Safety will be the Crisis Management Lead
State Agency (LSA).
3. The Department of Justice (DOJ) Federal Bureau ofInvestigation (FBI) will
be the Crisis Management Lead Federal Agency (LF A).
B. Arizona Revised Statutes (ARS 26-300) establishes the roles, responsibilities and
coordination of state responding agencies.
1. PCOEM will be the Consequence Management LCA.
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
65 of 83
2. Federal Emergency Management Administration will be the Consequence
Management LF A.
3. Arizona Division of Emergency Management ADEM will be the
Consequence Management LSA.
C. ARS Title 26 establishes the concept of a single focal point, the Office of Emergency
Management (OEM), for emergency/disaster response.
1. During Crisis Management, other agencies provide guidance/assistance to the
FBI as indicated in the FBI incident contingency plan. OEM will coordinate
the response of all Consequence Management agencies, to support the FBI and
supporting law enforcement agencies. This support will continue until the u.s.
Attorney General transfers the lead agency role to Consequence Management.
2. The decision to transition between the Lead Agency (LA) roles will be
assigned when the federal responsibility to contain the risk of further
escalation has been over shadowed by the state/local responsibility to provide
relief.

state. These mayor may not be unrelated incidents. The FBI will establish
coordination relationships between FBI field offices, ADEM, OEM and local
authorities.
B. Disaster Response to a Crime Scene and/or Hazardous Materials Site
1. In a terrorist incident, the area of operations may be a federal crime scene,
hazardous materials site and disaster area, which may span the borders of
neighboring counties, nations and states. To organize complex on-scene
operations, operational boundaries need to be defined with common
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
66 of 83
terminology and procedures. Operational boundaries may be used to control
access to the area, target public information messages, assign operational
sectors among responders and assess potential effects on the population and
the environment. Physical location of these boundaries will depend on the type
and quantity of hazardous materials involved.
a. The crime scene boundary defines the law enforcement crime scene
area. Access to the crime scene may be restricted on authority of the
FBI, DPS and local law enforcement.
b. The HAZMAT boundary defines the hazardous materials site, which
may be called the hot zone (biological/chemical). The HAZMA T
materials site may include some portions of the crime scene. Access to
this area may be restricted to personnel wearing personal protective
clothing and using safety decontamination procedures.
c. The emergency/disaster boundary identifies the community-at-risk that
may take protective actions such as shelter, evacuation or quarantine.
Access to this area may be restricted.
IV. CONCEPT OF OPERA nONS
A. Increased Readiness
1. In preparation for special events, law enforcement may notify appropriate
agencies to increase readiness. OEM supports law enforcement by identifying
Consequence Management issues and coordinating with appropriate
Consequence Management agencies. OEM cooperation may include planning,
training and exercises and drills.
B. Crisis Management Response
1. Title 18, Section 3107 ofthe U.S. Code provides that the FBI has primary
jurisdiction over criminal acts ofterrorism. Presidential Decision Directive 39
(PDD-39), U.S. Policy on Counter Terrorism reaffirms the FBI's responsibility
for Crisis Management response to terrorist incidents. The FBI functions as the
on-scene management for the federal government. State and local law
enforcement agencies will provide assistance as requested by the FBI On-
Scene Commander (OSC).
2. The FBI Field Officer responsible for the incident site will modify its
command post to function as a JOC. The FBI OSC will keep state/local
Consequence Management representatives informed of developments in the
Crisis Management situation. This allows state/local TOM EOC's to conduct
concurrent Consequence Management planning in cooperation with FEMA.
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
67 of 83
C. Consequence Management Response
1. Preparedness phase: The FBI may notify FEMA of a significant threat. The
FEMA National Emergency Coordination Center (NECC) and the Mobile
Emergency Response Support (MERS) Operations Center (MOC) supporting
Region IX may issue an alert to selected FEMA officials. FEMA Region IX
may then notify the Director of ADEM, who may notify the Director of OEM
who may notify local emergency response agencies.
2. Response phase: In case of an incident, interagency operations will transition
immediately from Crisis Management to Consequence Management. Local
emergency services will set priorities for response concentrating on
preservation of life and establishment of security. ADEM will provide
coordination and support.
3. Recovery phase: In response to a terrorist release of a WMD that occurs
without warning, PCOEM will immediately activate the Pima County EOC
and commence Consequence Management operations and coordinate
County/State/Federal agencies response assets. This includes technical
operations providing agent monitoring, decontamination and long-term
restoration.
a. In the event a false terrorist incident occurs, state/local emergency
management, in consultation with local law enforcement, will resume
normal operations.
b. Consequence Management operations will continue until recovery can
be conducted locally. Some technical operations may continue beyond
disengagement to support local governments with long-term hazard
monitoring, decontamination and site restoration.
V. ORGANIZATIONAL ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
A. MPD will maintain law and order, protect life and property, provide traffic control
and law enforcement support, guard essential facilities/supplies and coordinate mutual
aid. MPD will contact the Pima County OEM in the event of any terrorist related
activities.
B. NWFRD or District Having Jurisdiction will respond to and control fire incidents and
emergency medical incidents within their identified boundaries. The Pima County
OEM will be contacted if there is any evidence of terrorist related activities.
C. PCOEM will:
1. Serve as the accountable agency to the County Administrator.
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
68 of 83
2. Establish liaison with Joint Operations Center (JOC).
3. Cooperate with law enforcement to resolve Consequence Management/Crisis
Management conflicts.
4. Coordinate priority/action plans with law enforcement for Consequence
Management response.
5. Prepare briefings/reports with law enforcement.
6. Participate in a Joint Information Center to coordinate public information of
the responding Consequence Management agencies with the media and the
public.
D. Pima County Health Department will coordinate with ADHS to implement the U.S.
Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Health and Medical Services
Support Plan. This plan will include threat assessment, consultation, agent
identification, epidemiological investigation, hazard detection and reduction,
decontamination, public health support, medical support and pharmaceutical support
operations.
E. Pima County Department of Environmental Quality (PDEQ) will coordinate with
DEQ to implement the National Contingency Plan (NCP). The NCP coordinates
environmental response and provides for environmental monitoring, decontamination
and long term site restoration (environmental clean up) operations using the
Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act Trust Fund
(CERCLA).
F. In terrorist incidents involving nuclear material, the Arizona Radiation Regulatory Act
(ARRA) is the LSA. The LSA will implement Federal Radiological Emergency
Response Plan (FRERP) to coordinate radiological response, and will assess the
situation, develop protective action recommendations, and serve as the primary state
source of technical information regarding on-site conditions and off-site radiological
effects.
G. Other Consequence Management agencies will:
1. Establish an operational structure to coordinate chain-of-command structures
for local/county/state/federal agencies. This plan uses a multi-agency
operational structure that functions within the principles ofthe National
Interagency Incident Management System (NIMS), Incident Command
System (ICS), and Unified Command (UC).
2. Using Unified Command the local or state/federal law enforcement retains
control of Crisis Management actions. On-scene decisions are made
cooperatively by command group at the JOC in consultation with
ADOPTED 17 January 2006
69 of 83
local/county/state/federal representatives.
3. On-scene decisions will be made cooperatively by a Consequence
Management command group at the TOM EOC in consultation with technical
advisors and on-scene personnel.
VI. Plan Development and Maintenance
A. Reviews/updates to the ESF will be provided by the MPD.
