WARREN COUNTY

EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN

BASIC PLAN

I. PURPOSE

This Emergency Operations Plan will establish policies and procedures that will allow the government of Warren County and the cities therein to save lives, minimize injuries, protect property, preserve functioning civil government, and maintain economic activities essential to Warren County's survival and recovery from natural, technological, and war-related disasters. It will establish the guidelines for conducting efficient, effective, coordinated emergency operations involving the use of all resources belonging to Warren County or available to it.

II. SITUATION AND ASSUMPTIONS

A. Situation:

1. Warren County is located in east central Missouri just west of St. Charles County and north of the Missouri River. The county borders encompass 429square miles of varied terrain and seven incorporated municipalities, many of whose residents commute regularly to the city of St. Louis.

2. Based on the 2000 census, Warren County has a population of 24,525. The

incorporated cities within the County are: Foristell, Village of Innsbrook, Marthasville, Village of Pendleton, Truesdale, Warrenton and Wright City.

3. Warren County is vulnerable to many hazards, all of which have the potential to

disrupt the community, cause damage, and create casualties. The identified natural and technological hazards include flooding, drought, heat wave, public health emergency, Urban/structural fire, tornadoes, wildfires, earthquake and severe winter storms. There is also the threat of civil disorder, or terrorism incident such as a nuclear attack or bombing. Other technological disasters include dam failure; hazardous materials incidents, transportation accident, power failure, and the possible rupture of natural gas, crude oil, and product lines that transverse the county (see Appendix 6). Conditions that could necessitate evacuation and/or sheltering within the county include: hazardous materials incidents, flooding, dam failure, etc.

4. This Plan was developed for Warren County. The unincorporated areas of the county

are the responsibility of Warren County, while the incorporated communities are responsible for their own emergency operations, if they have such. If an incorporated community does not have an EOP, they may use this Plan as a guide until such time as they can develop their own.

Warren County EOP BP-1 JAN. 2004


5. The Warren County Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) is responsible for the development of a hazardous materials plan for Warren County and its municipalities. See Annex H.

6. Incidents involving acts of terrorism will be managed as established in Presidential

Decision Directive 39 (PDD-39) and Homeland Security Presidential Directive 5 (HSPD-5), which provides specific policy guidance regarding the response to acts of terrorism. See Annex N (Terrorism) for additional information.

7. Warren County has capabilities and resources, which, if effectively employed would minimize or eliminate the loss of life and damage to property in the event of an emergency or major disaster. This must include the utilization of private and volunteer organizations to the greatest extent possible.

8. Mutual aid agreements, both written and verbal, exist between many of the

emergency service agencies, the subdivisions in the county and surrounding areas. 9. This emergency management plan is being developed and maintained as required by

local executive order, pursuant to Missouri State Law, Chapter 44, RSMo, and the all-hazard emergency planning guidance developed by the State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA).

B. Assumptions:

1. Some of the situations as previously stated may occur after implementation of

warning and other preparedness measures, but others may occur with little or no warning.

2. Officials of Warren County and its municipalities are aware of the possible

occurrence of an emergency or major disaster and are also aware of their responsibilities in the execution of this plan and will fulfill these responsibilities as needed.

3. The proper implementation of this plan will reduce or prevent the loss of lives and

damage to property in Warren County. 4. Depending upon the severity and magnitude of the situation, local resources may not

be adequate to deal with every occurrence. It may be necessary to request assistance through volunteer organizations, the private sector, mutual aid agreements, or State and Federal sources.


III. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS

A. General:

1. It is the responsibility of local government to provide for a comprehensive emergency management program that meets the emergency needs of those who either have been or might be affected by an emergency or major disaster. When the emergency exceeds the local government's capability to respond, assistance will be requested from the State government. If additional assistance is needed beyond state capabilities, the State will coordinate requests to the proper Federal agencies. The county commission is ultimately responsible for emergency management activities within the boundaries of the jurisdiction. The Presiding Commissioner of Warren County is responsible for those activities in the unincorporated areas of the county and in those incorporated communities that do not have a local emergency management organization (See Title XI, Division 10, Chapter 11, of the Missouri Code of Regulations). The chief elected official of each municipality (i.e., Mayor) has a similar responsibility within their corporate boundaries. These officials can delegate their authority, but never their responsibility.

2. At no time will the County Commission supersede the authority of the elected

officials of any of the incorporated subdivisions unless: (1) requested to do so by those elected officials, (2) the local subdivisions governmental body is incapacitated or ceases to exist, or (3) empowered to do so by the governor under the authority of Chapter 44, RSMo. Although they participate in this plan, the aforementioned subdivisions should develop their own local plans.

3. This plan is based on the concept that the emergency functions assigned to the various groups, organizations, and individuals involved in this plan will parallel their normal, day-to-day functions as closely as possible. The same personnel and material resources will be employed as much as possible in both normal and emergency functions.

4. Those day-to-day functions that do not contribute directly to the emergency operations may be suspended for the duration of the emergency. The efforts that would normally be required for those functions will be redirected to the accomplishment of emergency tasks by the agency concerned.

5. This plan, or portions thereof, will be implemented according to the emergency classification and control procedures set forth in Appendix 3 to the Basic Plan. The procedures discussed under this Appendix will describe what happens when an emergency/disaster occurs, activation of the EOC, response procedures that will take place, and notification of departments/individuals.

6. By County Commission Order, updated June 6, 2002, Warren County created an emergency management organization responsible for the preparation and implementation of emergency functions for Warren County in accordance with Chapter 44, RSMo and the State of Missouri Emergency Operations Plan.

Warren County EOP BP - 4 OCT. 2005

7. Discrimination on the grounds of race, color, religion, nationality, sex, age, physical

impairment, or economic status will not be allowed in the execution of emergency management functions. This policy applies to all levels of government and the private sector in any protected class.

8. The National Incident Management System (NIMS) will be used in any emergency involving hazardous materials within Warren County.

B. Operational Time Frames:

1. This Plan is concerned with all types of hazards that may develop in Warren County and must account for activities before, during, and after an occurrence. The following operational time frames were established for the various actions to be performed within the scope of this Plan:

a. Mitigation: A period of time during which activities are undertaken by

individuals/departments to improve their capabilities to respond to a potential emergency and fulfill their assigned responsibilities.

b. Preparedness: A period of time during which activities are undertaken by

individuals/departments to increase their readiness posture during periods of heightened risk.

c. Response: A period of time during which activities are undertaken by

individuals/departments to respond to an occurrence that threatens or harms people/property.

d. Recovery: A period of time during which activities are undertaken by

individuals/departments to provide for the welfare of the people following a disaster and/or emergency.

2. See each Annex for functional operational time frames and responsibilities.

IV. ORGANIZATION AND ASSIGNMENT OF RESPONSIBILITIES

A. Organization:

1. Most of the departments within local government have emergency functions in addition to their normal, day-to-day duties which parallel or complement normal functions. The emergency management organization for Warren County will be set up along the following functional lines: a. Direction and Control Annex A b. Communications and Warning Annex B


c. Emergency Public Information Annex C d. Damage Assessment Annex D e. Law Enforcement Annex E f. Fire and Rescue Annex F g. Resource and Supply Annex G h. Hazardous Material Response Annex H i. Public Works Annex I j. Evacuation Annex J k. In-Place Shelter Annex K l. Reception and Care Annex L m. Health and Medical Annex M n. Terrorism Annex N o. Animal Rescue, Care & Sheltering Annex O

2. Warren County and each incorporated subdivision should develop a capability in each of these functional areas using all available resources. In some cases one agency handles a particular operation for both on a day-to-day basis (i.e., Red Cross, Division of Family Services, Warren County Public Health Center, etc.).

3. The organizational chart for Warren County is located in Appendix 1 to the Basic Plan.

B. Assignment of Responsibilities:

1. Specific groups, departments/agencies, and individuals will be assigned primary

and/or support responsibilities to prepare for and to perform (coordinate) each of the functions listed above. In some cases a function will be assigned to a county official or agency, while others to city agencies or a combination thereof. Assignments for Warren County are identified on a Chart in Appendix 2 to this Basic Plan.

2. The specific tasks to be performed in each function are found in detail in each functional Annex. Appendix 2 contains a basic list of task assignments by function common to county and city organizations.

3. It will be the responsibility of those agencies and individuals having a primary/

support assignment to develop and maintain current standard guidelines (SOGs) and checklists which detail how their assigned tasks will be performed to support implementing this Plan.

4. Government at all levels and private sector organizations involved in community

service activities have heavy responsibilities for maintaining awareness of and being prepared to provide for the needs of persons with disabilities or other special problems. Throughout this EOP, the requirements of special needs groups will be addressed (i.e., providing medical, transportation, and other related support during emergency situations for the handicapped, elderly, etc.).

5. The Warren County Emergency Management Director is responsible for notification

and coordination with adjacent jurisdiction(s) on facilities and/or dangerous releases, which may impose risks across boundaries of different planning areas.

V. DIRECTION AND CONTROL

A. General:

1. The Presiding Commissioner of Warren County is responsible for all emergency management activities to include implementing this Plan and directing emergency response within their jurisdiction. The County Commission is also responsible for declaring a state of emergency and requesting state assistance when appropriate. See Appendices 4 and 6 to the Basic Plan.

2. The County Emergency Management Director is responsible for the following:

a. Brief appropriate officials and new employees on their roles in emergency management.

b. Coordination of all emergency management activities. c. Decisions on routine day-to-day matters pertaining to emergency

management. d. Advising on courses of action available for major decisions.

e. Ensuring proper functioning of the EOC and coordinate EOC operations

during an emergency. f. Acting as liaison with other local, State and Federal emergency management

agencies.


g. Other duties as outlined in the local orders, court orders and agreements.

B. Emergency Operations Center:

1. Warren County is subject to many hazards that would require decentralized control

and coordination of units in the field. See Appendix 6, Warren County Hazard Vulnerability Analysis, for a list of these hazards.

2. Warren County will provide direction and control from its primary emergency

operations center (EOC), which is co-located with Joint E-911 Communications Center, 209 Hwy. U, Warrenton, MO.

3. The primary power system for the EOC is the local electric company. Emergency

power can be provided by a back-up generator located on site. 4. In the event that the primary EOC cannot be used, all emergency response field

forces will be advised of the operations transfer from the primary EOC to the alternate EOC, by radio transmission as/if required. See Annex A this Basic Plan for further information about the EOC.

5. In the event the primary EOC becomes inoperable, the alternate EOC will be

activated. The alternate EOC is located at the Warrenton Fire Protection District Station # 1, 606 Fairgrounds Road, Warrenton, MO. The mobile LEPC communications trailer would also be used at this location to aid in the communication ability. Security would be provided by county and local law enforcement agencies.

6. Many of the other communities will operate independently of each other and operate

their own EOCs, unless they delegate their authority to another jurisdiction or higher form of government.

7. In the event the primary Joint E-911 communication and warning facilities become

inoperable, the alternate Joint E-911 communication and warning facilities will be the Warrenton Fire Protection District Station # 1, 606 Fairgrounds Road, Warrenton, MO. The mobile LEPC communications trailer would also be used at this location to aid in the communication ability. Security would be provided by county and local law enforcement agencies.

8. The EOC will be manned generally according to the level of the emergency

described in Appendix 3.

9. Procedures will be developed to protect EOC personnel from environmental threats (air purity, water portability, etc) within the means available. Additional requirements will be addressed to external support resources.


VI. CONTINUITY OF GOVERNMENT

Effective comprehensive emergency management operations depend upon two important factors to ensure continuity in government from the highest to the lowest level: (1) lines of succession for officials, agency/department heads, and authorized personnel; and (2) preservation of records.

A. Lines of Succession:

In the event that an official or agency charged with participating in emergency operations is unable to perform, lines of succession will be established to ensure continuous emergency services are provided.

1. The line of succession for the Warren County Commission is as follows:

a. The Presiding Commissioner.

b. In the absence of the Presiding Commissioner, the County Clerk shall

Appoint associate commissioner to act as the Presiding Commissioner. c. In the absence of the County Clerk, the first (1st) available Commissioner

will serve as Presiding Commissioner until the County Clerk can make an official appointment.

2. The line of succession for the Mayors of the incorporated jurisdictions is to the

Mayor, to be followed by members of the City Council, as they decide.

3. The line of succession for the Warren County Emergency Management Director is through the Deputy Emergency Management Director, and then the County Sheriff. This would also apply to other individual jurisdictions having an emergency management organization.

4. The line of succession for each department head is according to the standard

operating guides established by each department. The individual or agency responsible for each Annex (emergency function) identified in this Plan must establish a line of succession and insure that departmental personnel and the Emergency Management Director (EMD) are informed of the line of succession. Refer to each Annex of this Plan and SOGs.

5. In the event circumstances resulting from a disaster prevent a political entity from

performing effective operations, the next higher political subdivision may assume authority until that political entity is able to adequately resume operations.


B. Preservation of Records

1. Essential (vital) records for Warren County are of two types, written or stored on computerized disc (which are in several fire-rated storage areas in the County Court House). Some computer back-up records are stored off-site.

2. In order to provide normal government operations after a disaster, all vital records, of

both a public and private nature recorded by such county and city officials as the clerk, tax collector, tax assessor, etc., must be protected and preserved. These would include legal documents, property deeds, tax records, etc. The following guidelines will apply:

a. Certain records and documents are vital to the continuance of government

following a major disruption of normal activities, such as a major disaster. These records and documents are to be identified by officials responsible for their day-to-day maintenance.

b. Resources from local government will be allocated to provide for one or

more of the following options: (1) duplication of all such records, (2) timely movement to secure or safe areas outside the danger area, and/or development of secure areas in Warren County.

3. Each emergency support service (i.e., law enforcement, fire, public works, etc.) must

establish procedures to protect records deemed essential for continuing government functions and conduct of emergency operations.

4. Further information on preservation of records can be obtained by contacting the

Secretary of State’s Office located in Jefferson City. VII. ADMINISTRATION AND LOGISTICS

A. Administration

1. Emergency Authority (See Part IX, Authorities and References).

2. Reports and Records, as required, will be submitted to the proper authorities in accordance with the instructions in the individual Annexes.

3. Agreements and Understandings with other local jurisdictions, higher levels of

government and other agencies can be utilized to supplement local resources should an emergency situation exhaust the capabilities of Warren County. Requests for such assistance will be made in accordance with negotiated mutual aid agreements and understandings. All such agreements should be formalized in writing whenever possible.


4. Disaster Assistance from the State or Federal government will be utilized in accordance with their provisions and statutes. Requests for such assistance will be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Appendix 4.

5. Review and written concurrence of this Plan and its Annexes will be accomplished

as follows: each agency/department of government and private sector organizations assigned emergency responsibilities will review this Plan. They will report their concurrence to the Warren County Emergency Management Director.

6. The County Commissioners will sign the promulgation statement for all Warren

County government departments. 7. After this Plan is adopted by the Warren County Commission, it will be offered to all

municipalities in the county for their review and adoption, if they so desire.

B. Logistics

1. Whenever possible, procurement of necessary resources will be accomplished using normal day-to-day channels.

2. During unusual situations, when such constraints would result in the loss of life and

property, normal requisition procedures can be circumvented. This will be done under the authorities and by the procedures set forth in the local ordinances.

3. Establish policy for obtaining and using facilities, materials, services, and other

resources required to support emergency operations. 4. Set up procedures for receiving and managing the donations and services of

individual citizens, private sector organizations, and others not included in the formal response structure.

5. Identify, as appropriate, special or critical resources required for radiological and

chemical analysis, environmental assessment, biological sampling, etc. 6. Develop procedures for inventory, storage, maintenance, and replacement of

administrative and logistical support items during emergency conditions.

7. Identify the availability and accessibility of resources from neighboring jurisdictions, military installations, the State, and the Federal government. See Warren County Emergency Management Agency Resource Book.

VIII. PLAN DEVELOPMENT AND MAINTENANCE

A. The Warren County EOP was developed through the efforts of the Warren County Emergency Management Director with assistance provided by the State Emergency


Management Agency. During the development, various agencies, organizations, and county and city governments were interviewed to discuss their roles, responsibilities, and capabilities in an emergency.

B. This Plan is a result of their input. The Warren County EOP is a multi-hazard, functional

plan, broken into three components: (1) a Basic Plan that serves as an overview of the jurisdiction's approach to emergency management, (2) Annexes that address specific activities critical to emergency response and recovery, and (3) Appendices which support each Annex and contain technical information, details, and methods for use in emergency operations.

C. The Basic Plan is to be used primarily by the County Commission and the Emergency

Management Agency (EMA), but all individuals/agencies involved in the EOP should be familiar with it. The Annexes are to be used by the operational managers and the appendices are for disaster response personnel.

D. The contents of this Plan must be understood by those who will implement it or it will not be

effective. Thus, the Warren County Emergency Management Director (EMD) will brief the appropriate officials on their roles in emergency management. The director will also brief newly employed officials as they assume their duties.

E. Each organization/agency with an assigned task will be responsible for the development and

maintenance of their respective segments of the Plan (see Part IV, Organization and Assignment of Responsibilities). They will update their portion of the Plan, as needed, based on experience in emergencies, deficiencies identified through drills and exercises, and changes in government structure and emergency organizations.

F. The Emergency Management Director (EMD) will instigate an annual review of the Plan by

all officials and agencies. He/She will ensure that necessary changes and revisions to the Plan are prepared, coordinated, published, and distributed. The Director will provide a copy of the plan revisions to all organizations/agencies assigned responsibility for implementation of the Plan.

G. This Plan will be activated once a year in the form of a simulated emergency, taking into

account actual events, in order to determine if revisions can be made that would improve disaster response and recovery operations. This will also provide practical controlled operations experience to those who have EOC responsibilities. This will be done by the Emergency Management Director, with the approval of the Warren County Commission.

H. This Plan or any portions thereof will be activated by the order of the Warren County

Commission present, or by the procedures set forth in Appendix 3. I. This Plan will become effective upon the date it is approved and signed by the Warren

County Commission.

WARREN COUNTY HAZARD ANALYSIS This appendix is designed to provide an overview of the hazards that could affect Warren County. In general, hazards can be placed into two (2) categories: natural and technological/man-made hazards. Note those hazards, which are identified by an asterisk, are considered to be high-risk hazards for Warren County: I. NATURAL HAZARDS

A. *Tornado:

Since Missouri lies in the heart of the nation's "tornado alley", its residents are particularly vulnerable to tornadoes. Seventy percent (70%) of Missouri's tornadoes occur during the months of March, April, May and June, but a tornado can occur at any time of the year. In past years (1950-2001) Warren County has recorded 9 tornado touchdowns; consequently, Warren County is considered at risk to tornadoes.

B. *Winter Storms:

Although excessive snowfalls with prolonged severe cold, or storms producing blizzard conditions are rare in Missouri, they do occur.

A large winter storm accompanied by severe cold could cause numerous secondary hazards such as power failures, fuel shortages, and transportation incidents.

C. *Floods:

Flooding is a potential risk in Warren County. In recent years, Warren County has been included in Presidential Declarations for disaster assistance in 1993 and 1995. In the past years 1955 to 2002 Warren County has recorded 16 flood events, resulting in 4 injuries and 1 death. See Appendix 5, Annex J.

D. Earthquake:

Although earthquakes in the Midwest occur less frequently than on the west coast, the threat of earthquake affecting Missouri is high. In the event of a magnitude 7.6 earthquake along the New Madrid seismic zone, Warren County could experience an intensity of VII on the Modified Mercalli Scale. See Attachment B to this Appendix for additional information.


E. *Drought:

1. Drought is defined as a prolonged period with no rain that can affect agricultural areas and impact water supply systems. Because of its geographical location and characteristic weather patterns, Missouri is vulnerable to drought conditions. Agricultural droughts are the most common of record, particularly those inflicting damage to corn crop yields. Surface water sources usually become inadequate during extended drought. Groundwater resources are normally poor and typically supply only enough water for domestic needs. Irrigation is generally not feasible. When irrigation is practical, groundwater withdrawal may affect other uses. Surface water sources are used to supplement irrigation supplied by groundwater sources.

2. The Department of Natural Resources has divided Missouri into three regions which

are prioritized according to drought susceptibility: Region A - Slight, Region B - Moderate and Region C – High. Most of Warren County is located in Region B. Region B the natural groundwater resources are adequate to meet domestic and municipal water needs, but due to required well depths, irrigation wells are very expensive. The topography generally is unsuitable for row-crop irrigation. The southern area of Warren County that borders the Missouri River is classified in Region A which has very little drought susceptibility.

F. *Heat Wave:

A heat wave is defined by the National Weather Service as three consecutive days of 90 degree Fahrenheit plus temperatures. These high temperatures generally occur from June through September but are most prevalent in the months of July and August. When heat indexes of 105 degrees are reached for a large portion of the state, the Missouri Department of Health will announce a hot weather health advisory, warning or emergency, depending upon the duration. Heat waves are often a major contributing factor to power outages (brownouts, etc.) as the high temperatures result in a tremendous demand for electricity for cooling purposes.

G. Wildfire:

A wildfire is the uncontrolled burning in grasslands, brush or forest. The majority of fires and the greatest acreage loss will generally occur between February and September.

H. *Other:

Additional natural hazards that could affect Warren County include: ice storms, sleet, hail, high winds, excessive rain and lightning.


II. TECHNOLOGICAL/MAN-MADE HAZARDS

A. *Hazardous Materials:

Warren County is prone to hazardous materials incidents from both fixed containment sites and transportation accidents. There are numerous fixed facilities that store/use hazardous materials. Several major transportation routes cross through the county, which include the following (For additional information see Annex H): Highways: Interstate 70 & Highway 47 & 94 Rail Lines: Norfolk Southern Pipe Lines: Knaeb, Conoco and Williams & Platte Waterways: Missouri River Airports: Washington Airport

B. *Transportation Incidents:

This type of incident involves passenger and/or rail travel that results in death or serious injury. There is one rail line in Warren County and the nearest airport that provides passenger service is located in St. Louis. Highway incidents are usually excluded under this hazard and addressed under hazardous materials incident

C. Dam Failure:

There are 125 dams in Warren County. Of these dams there are 28 high hazard dams, 46 significant hazard, and 51 low hazard. The hazard rating is based on the contents of the downstream environment zone. The partial or complete collapse of any of these structures has the potential to cause downstream flooding problems in the County.

D. Fire:

Fire is the primary cause of accidental death in the United States, surpassing floods, automobile accidents and other disasters. Twenty (20) times more deaths are caused by fire than by floods, hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes combined. Fires may be accidental or intentional and have the potential to cause major conflagrations, leading to secondary hazards, such as a hazardous materials incident. Fires are by far the most frequent hazard that will affect Warren County.

E. Power Failures:

The loss or interruption of power can cause significant problems for the businesses and residents of Warren County. Power failure can result from another disaster (i.e., tornado, winter storm, etc.) or it can occur on its own. Power failures can be particularly dangerous when they occur during periods of either extreme heat or cold.


F. Terrorism:

Warren County, like any other area in the country, is vulnerable to a terrorist attack. An attack of this nature can come in many different forms, bombings, tampering with the local public works’/utilities’ infrastructure, etc. See ANNEX N (Terrorism) for additional information.

G. Public Health Emergency:

1. Public health emergencies can take many forms – disease epidemics, large-scale

incidents of food and water contamination, or extended periods without adequate water and sewage services. There can also be harmful exposure to chemical, radiological or biological agents, and large-scale infestations of disease-carrying insects or rodents – to name just a few. Public health emergencies can occur as primary events by themselves, or they may be secondary events to another disaster or emergency, such as flood, tornado, or hazardous material incident. The common characteristic of most public health emergencies is that they adversely impact, or have the potential to adversely impact, a large number of people. They can be statewide, regional, or localized.

2. In particular, two public health hazards have recently emerged as issues. The first

hazard is the release of a radiological, chemical, or biological agent, as a terrorist act of sabotage, to adversely impact a large number of people. The second hazard would be a deadly flu outbreak (influenza pandemic) that could kill or sicken thousands of people across the country or around the globe, as in the case of the Spanish Flu epidemic of 1918-19. Such a pandemic could occur either by a natural means, or man-caused as a bio-chemical terrorist activity. For additional information, refer to the New County and Health Plan.

H. Nuclear Power Plant Incident:

The Callaway Nuclear Plant is a commercial nuclear power reactor located west of Warren County in Callaway County. The plant is owned and operated by Ameren/UE, St. Louis. In a worst-case scenario, in which a significant release of radioactive material occurred, food sources within a fifty (50) mile radius of the plant could be contaminated. Since all of Warren County lies within the 50 mile ingestion pathway/Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ), a radiation release could affect agricultural products throughout Warren County. In the event of a significant release, the community would be notified and advised on what actions to take in accordance with the emergency operation plans developed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and the State of Missouri. See Attachment A to Appendix 7 To the Basic Plan. To View the map of the Callaway Nuclear Plant’s 50-mile radial grid.


I. Pipeline Failure:

Another technological/manmade hazard which could affect Warren County is a pipeline failure. There are various pipeline systems located within the County that could rupture, block, or otherwise create a disruption within the County.


Attachment A To Appendix 7 To the Basic Plan

50-MILE RADIAL GRID


Appendix 8 To the Basic Plan

EARTHQUAKE RESPONSE A. The New Madrid Seismic Zone is centered in Southeast Missouri and northeast Arkansas, but

extends into parts of Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi and Tennessee. The region is considered to pose the greatest danger and have the highest seismic level of any area east of the Rocky Mountains. Due to the geology of the area, damages could be spread over a large area of the Central United States.

B. Addendum 1 to this Appendix illustrates the projected Modified Mercalli intensities for Missouri

should a 7.6 magnitude earthquake occur anywhere along the New Madrid Seismic Zone. Warren County can expect to feel the effects of a VII intensity on the Modified Mercalli scale. See Addendum 1 to this Attachment for a list of these effects for Warren County.

C. A magnitude earthquake of 7.6 or greater would cause massive casualties and injuries, as well as

severe damage to private and public property. (Most casualties and injuries are due to falling objects and debris, not from the actual movement of the ground.) Railroads, highways, bridges, telecommunications, and utilities could also be severely damaged. An earthquake could trigger secondary events such as explosions, fires, landslides, flooding, liquefaction and hazardous materials releases. Natural gas and petroleum pipelines could rupture, causing fires and explosions. Dam failures are also likely to follow a major earthquake. Note: A New Madrid Earthquake could also be defined as a National Disaster due to the potential adverse impact it would have on the United States.

D. A major earthquake would overwhelm a local jurisdiction's ability to adequately respond to the

situation. E. Earthquakes are more likely to hinder emergency operations than most other disasters or

emergencies (i.e., difficulties coordinating services and acquiring resources could be much more critical).

F. Access to and from the damaged area may be severely restricted for hours at least, if not days.

Communications and life-support systems may be severely hampered or destroyed. G. Seismic caused ground motions and its resulting damage may vary within a geographical region.

There could be heavy damage in one area and only slight damage in another area. Initial reports of the earthquake may not reflect the true nature of the problem.

H. A catastrophic earthquake would result in an immediate declaration of a "State of Emergency" by

the Governor, followed later by a Presidential Disaster Declaration. This would allow State and Federal emergency operations to begin.

I. Local jurisdictions may have to "go it alone" for the first 72 hours after an earthquake, before State

and Federal assistance arrives.

PROJECTED EARTHQUAKE INTENSITIES

This map shows the highest projected Modified Mercalli intensities by county from a potential magnitude 7.6 earthquake whose epicenter could be anywhere along the length of the New Madrid seismic zone.

Warren County EOP A - 1 JAN 2004

ANNEX A

DIRECTION & CONTROL I. PURPOSE

A. When an emergency occurs, centralized direction and control is required to facilitate a coordinated response by the County Commission and key staff members, emergency support service personnel, and representatives of private sector, organizations or individuals who have assigned emergency responsibilities. The most effective way to exercise direction and control under emergency conditions is to provide a single site for key officials. This has been provided through the Emergency Operation Center (EOC).

B. This Annex will develop a capability for the Warren County Commission and key local

officials of the County to direct and control response and recovery operations from a centralized facility in the event of an emergency.

II. SITUATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS

A. Situation:

1. Warren County is subject to many hazards (See Situation and Assumptions, Basic

Plan) that would require the use of a centralized emergency operating area to facilitate policymaking, coordination, and control of operating forces in a large-scale emergency situation.

2. Warren County and its incorporated municipalities are separate entities and thus

will control operations from EOCs within their respective jurisdiction. If the incorporated subdivisions do not have an emergency management organization, the county will assume that role upon request

3. Warren County will control their operations from their EOC. If the incorporated

subdivisions do not have an emergency management organization, the county will assume this responsibility upon request. Primary and alternate EOC designations for Warren County are as follows:

a. Primary: Warren County E-911 Joint Communication Center 209

Highway U, Warrenton, Missouri 63383.

b. Alternate: Warrenton Fire Protection District Station #1, 606 Fairgrounds Road, Warrenton, MO.

c. Mobile: A mobile communications trailer is also available from the

Warren County Local Emergency Planning Committee. The E-911 Joint Communications center is staffed 24 hours a day and has the communications equipment to communicate with City, County and State departments or agencies. This includes contact with the State Highway


Patrol, Troop C in Town and Country, area ambulance, fire and police departments, and local governmental agencies.

4. On-site direction and control can also be established, if necessary, through the use

of emergency vehicles equipped with radio communications. 5. The primary EOC has the capability to communicate with City, County, and State

departments and agencies. Among these are the Missouri State Highway Patrol, area fire and police departments, etc. Annex B details the communications capabilities of Warren County.

6. Space will be provided in the EOC for Direction and Control Staff (the

coordinators of the emergency functions), supporting agency representatives, and EOC staff (clerical support, plotters, etc.). Space for briefing the media will be available, but separate from actual operations rooms. State and Federal officials who support disaster operations will also be provided space to operate in the EOC.

B. Assumptions:

1. The EOC Direction and Control procedures described in this Annex shall be

adequate for all disaster conditions that could arise for Warren County.

2. When an emergency or disaster occurs or threatens to occur, the EOC will be activated in a timely manner. Local officials will respond as directed in this Annex and Appendix 3 to the Basic Plan.

3. Should a total County evacuation of the EOC become necessary, operations can

be successfully controlled from nearby safe location. 4. Close coordination with the EOC will be maintained to identify special

considerations, secondary threats, and available resources. 5. Most emergency situations are handled routinely by emergency response

personnel and can be managed by those response agencies under their established procedures.


A. General: (NOTE: 1-10 below are from the original EOP. The remaining are recommended.)

1. The EOC and emergency response personnel will be activated according to the

procedures outlined in Appendix 3 of the Basic Plan.


2. In most cases, the composition of the necessary operational staff will be

determined after all personnel have been called in and are present.

a. Space will be provided in the EOC for the County Commissioners and principal advisors, damage assessment staff, the public information officer and radiological protection officer including recorders, analysts and plotters. Space for briefing the media will be available but separate from the actual operations room.

3. The majority of agencies will operate from the EOC with the exceptions of those

agencies with numerous records and files who will send a representative to the EOC when called upon to do so.

4. Each emergency support agency/service will designate a representative to report to

the EOC during an emergency to advise decision makers and coordinate its agency/service’s response effort with other responding organizations/agencies.

5. The Emergency Management Agency Director shall maintain the capability to

activate the EOC on short notice and maintain a continuous 24-hour a day manning of emergency response jobs (EOC staff, emergency support services, dispatchers, shelter teams, etc.). This will include setting up work shifts (i.e. 8 hours, 12 hours, etc.).

6. Those organizations and agencies providing emergency response personnel must

include in their standard operating guideline (SOGs) the specific emergency authorities that may assume by a designated successor during emergency situations. The circumstances under which this authority would become effective and when it would be terminated should also be identified.

7. Although the elected governmental officials and department heads will control

operations, the Emergency Management Director will manage the EOC. 8. A log will be kept in the EOC to record significant events and key information

related to the disaster during an emergency situation. See Appendix 3 for log form.

9. The decision to discontinue operations will be made by the County Commission.

10. Staffing requirements of the EOC will be determined by the severity of the

situation. 11. The majority of departments will operate from the EOC with the exceptions, of

those departments with numerous records and files. However, when called upon to do so, they will provide a representative to the EOC.

12. Although the elected governmental officials and department heads will control

operations, the Emergency Management Director will manage the EOC.


13. In some situations, it may be necessary to utilize an on-scene command post or to move direction and control activities to the alternate EOC.

14. The on-scene commander will direct and control operations at the disaster site.

He/She will maintain contact with the EOC and keep them informed of the current situation.

15. Those emergency support services that do not operate from the EOC will designate

and establish a work/control/dispatch center to manage their resources and response personnel. During emergency situations, they will maintain contact with the EOC through their designated representative.

16. Should a life-threatening situation develop or appear imminent, emergency

instructions to the public will be disseminated by all available means (See ANNEX C). EOC operations will continue as required by the situation and will conclude by order of the chief elected official and the Emergency Management Director.

17. The FBI has been designated as the Lead Federal Agency (LFA) for a Terrorist

event, to include Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). Local and State agencies are to work jointly with the FBI in resolving the terrorist situation. Local Law Enforcement retains control within their jurisdiction. See Appendix 3 to Annex E and Annex N for further information on terrorism incidents. State and/or Federal officials will support disaster operations as appropriate. These officials will coordinate their efforts through their designated EOCs. (See Annex N (Terrorism) for additional information and requirements.

B. Actions to be taken by operating time frames:

1. Mitigation (Pre-Emergency):

a. Analyze potential disasters (See Situation and Assumptions, Basic Plan)

and expand EOC capabilities to meet situations. b. Identify agencies, facilities, personnel and resources necessary to support

EOC operations. c. Develop procedures for upgrading EOC. d. Train Direction and Control staff in EOC procedures through (Tests, Drills

and Exercises e. Develop a public information program to exercise citizen awareness of the

EOC facility and its purpose. Conduct tours and briefings as necessary. f. Develop plans to relocate EOC operations should it become necessary.


g. Prepare displays and acquire other equipment necessary for the EOC operations.

h. Develop a media and rumor control program. i. Stock administrative supplies and equipment. j. Develop a method for message handling within the EOC. k. Develop EOC security procedures. l. Conduct exercise and critiques of EOC procedures with all EOC staff. m. Develop information packets to be distributed to Direction and Control

Staff when EOC is activated. These packets should contain, but not be limited to the following:

1) EOC- Standard Operating Procedures 2) EOC- Layout floor plan 3) Message handling procedures to include receiving, transmitting,

preparing and logging.

ANNEX B

COMMUNICATIONS AND WARNING I. PURPOSE

The ability of local government to direct its emergency forces through adequate communication is essential to an effective operation in an emergency or disaster. Although Warren County already has an existing effective communication system in place, it is necessary to plan on how to realize the most effective use of this system in the event of an emergency or disaster. This Annex was developed to provide information and guidance concerning available or potentially available communications and warning capabilities of Warren County and how they can be augmented if necessary.


A. Situation:

1. Warren County could find itself subjected to many hazards (see Basic Plan, Situation and Assumptions) and would require activating emergency communications and warning operations.

2. Warren County receives its initial warning information from the Missouri

State Highway Patrol, Troop C Headquarters in Town and Country, where the National Warning Alert System (NAWAS) point is located. This warning, in turn, is dispersed throughout the County.

3. The communications and warning capabilities for Emergency Responders

in Warren County are handled by the Warren County E-911 Joint Communications Center.

4. The Warren County E-911 Joint Communications Center is staffed on a

24-hour basis by dispatch personnel. They dispatch for the following agencies: Warren County Sheriff, Warrenton Police, Wright City Police, Marthasville Police, Truesdale Police, Warren County Ambulance, Marthasville Ambulance District, Warrenton Fire Protection District, Wright City Fire Protection Dist., Marthasville Fire Protection District, and the Warren County Emergency Management Agency. Dispatching is done by radio and/or telephone, depending on how the call is received and where the responding agency is.

5. Severe weather warnings are received by the Warren County E-911 Joint

Communications Center and are dispersed throughout the county. There is currently only one operational warning system in Warren County; this system services the Cities of Warrenton and Truesdale. These sirens are

Warren County EOP B - 1 JAN 2004

tone-activated by Warren County E-911 Joint Communications Center Dispatchers. Warning in the uncovered areas of the county will be handled by mobile public address systems operated by the County Sheriff’s Department. Radio and television stations will also broadcast warnings.

6. This system can be augmented by amateur radio operators from the

Dutzow and St. Charles group. 7. This system is adequate to deal with most emergency situations in Warren

County, but in a severe emergency, augmentation may be required (i.e. LEPC Mobile Communication Trailer.)

B. Assumptions:

1. It is assumed that the existing communications and warning system in

Warren County will survive and remain functional regardless of which type of disaster strikes the area.

2. This Annex will aid timely emergency responses during disasters by insuring coordination of all communication and warning systems.

3. If the situation is such that local systems are overtaxed, the State will be able to augment local resources during the response and recovery phases.

4. Regardless of how well developed a warning system is, some citizens will ignore, not hear, or not understand warnings of impending disasters broadcast over radio or television, or sounded by local siren systems. Mobile public address and even door-to-door operations may be required in some disaster situations.

5. In most cases the communications center (dispatching personnel) in conjunction with the Incident Management Commander on the scene, will make the initial determination that a "classified" emergency has occurred or is developing. (See Appendix 4 to the Basic Plan, Emergency Classification, Control, and Alerting Procedures.)


A. General

1. Ultimate responsibility for developing and maintaining an emergency operations communications and warning capability lies with local government.


2. The communications and warning operations will be initiated by the Warren County Joint 911 Communications Center. They will establish shifts to provide a 24-hour a day staffing of their communications facilities during emergencies

3. During classified emergencies, curtailment of routine action may be necessary.

The degree of this curtailment will be determined by the chief communications officer and will depend upon the severity of the situation.

4. During emergency operations, all departments will maintain their existing

equipment and procedures for communicating with their field operations. They will keep the EOC informed of their operations at all times and will maintain communications liaison with the EOC

5. Communications between the state and local EOC will be primarily through land

line telephone links. 6. Telephone services, amateur radio communications network, in the area will be

used to expand communications capabilities during disaster situations. 7. Most warning alerts come from outside sources (i.e., state, National Weather

Service, etc.). 8. When an emergency situation occurs, all available systems will be used to alert

and warn the private residences, schools, nursing homes, hospitals, etc. Methods of warning include: television, radio, and outdoor warning sirens.

9. Tests and educational programs will be conducted regularly to ensure the public

understands the various warnings.

B. Actions to be taken by Operational Time Frames 1. Mitigation

a. Revise and update this annex and its appendices at least yearly. b. Formulate long-range plans for improvements and follow through with

them. c. Conduct training for all personnel (full-time, part-time and supplementary)

in: 1) Message flow when EOC is activated

2) Emergency classification 3) Warning systems activation procedures 4) Other subjects as required to support other functions

d. Participate in a regular schedule of tests and exercises.


e. Inspect and maintain all equipment on a regular basis. f. Identify private sector resources (i.e. telephone companies) that can

augment local capabilities to include repair and supply. g. Analyze equipment locations with regard to possible destruction from

hazards. h. Coordinate communications and warning capabilities with neighboring

jurisdictions. i. Ensure that a repair capability exists under emergency conditions. j. Develop procedures to provide coverage should any equipment become

disabled. k. Develop procedures to warn and/or communicate information to special

needs groups (hearing impaired persons, persons with visual impairments, non-English speaking groups, etc.).

2. Preparedness

a. Initiate personnel call-up as necessary, depending upon the potential of the situation.

b. Activate appropriate warning systems. c. Run equipment readiness checks to include emergency power. d. Activate alternate systems and procedures if necessary. e. Provide adequate communications support to EOC staff. f. Check communications links with state and federal agencies.

3. Response a. Activate warning system if not already done.

b. Activate all necessary personnel to meet communications needs. c. Provide communications for agencies in the field. d. Determine the emergency classification if necessary. e. Maintain and provide information to decision-makers.


f. Report on communications and warning systems status to the EOC staff. g. Make necessary repairs or switch to alternate systems as breakdowns

occur. 4. Recovery

a. Continue response level operations until orders to discontinue operations are received from appropriate authorities

b. Provide communications support to Damage Assessment. c. Make repairs and inventory equipment and supplies. Report status to the

EOC staff. IV. ORGANIZATION AND ASSIGNMENT OF RESPONSIBILITIES A. The organizational chart for the communications and warning function in Warren

County is provided in Appendix 1 to this Annex. B. Assignment of Responsibilities:

1. Overall coordination and control of communications and warning in Warren County is the responsibility of the Warren County E-911 Joint Communications Center. The Warren County E-911 Joint Communications Center will coordinate all communication activities in the county. This coordination is necessary because the NAWAS (National Warning System) warning originates here for the County from Troop C, Town and Country.

2. Those areas of the county that do not have a warning system in place, warning

will be provided by local radio and televisions stations activating their Emergency Alert System (EAS).

3. All law enforcement Departments are responsible for keeping the EOC

informed of their operations at all times with regard to communications and warning activities.


A. For incidents that have reached an emergency classification (See Appendix 3 to the

Basic Plan), overall direction and control will be from the designated EOC within the affected area or subdivision.

B. Specific department heads may be designated to maintain operational control of

their own communications systems, but will coordinate with the EOC during


emergency operations. All departments must become familiar with the procedures outlined in this Annex.

C. When a classified emergency occurs, normal procedures can be altered as

necessary to insure adequate direction and control.

D. Outside communications and warning resources used to support emergency operations will remain under the direct control of the sponsoring organization, but will be assigned by the EOC to respond as necessary.


A. Lines of succession to each department head and other key personnel positions shall be according to the procedures and normal lines of succession established in the respective departments' SOGs.

B. In the event the primary communications and warning facilities become

inoperable, the secondary Emergency Operation Center will be Warrenton Fire Station #1, 606 Fairgrounds Road, Warrenton Missouri 63383. The Mobile LEPC Communication Trailer could be used at this location to supplement communication, if necessary. Security would be provided by county and or local law enforcement.

C. The Alternate Emergency Operation Center will provide:

1. Complete Radio operations for Warren County 2. Administration telephone lines 3. Additional telephone lines 4. Dispatch capabilities 5. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Alert

monitoring.

D. All essential records vital to the continued functioning of the communications and warning section should be duplicated and maintained at another location. If this is not possible, plans should be developed to move documents to an alternate site.


VII. ADMINISTRATION & LOGISTICS

A. Administration:

1. Maintain mutual aid agreements and agreements of understanding regarding communications and warning operations as needed.

2. Notification/recall lists for all departments to include each individual in

the chain of command will be updated regularly and provided to the Warren County E-911 Joint Communications Center. This list should include telephone numbers and radio frequencies of neighboring jurisdictions and State agencies. A communication system to implement call-down rosters for personnel assigned to the EOC, etc. must also be maintained. It is the responsibility of each agency to insure that their personnel are adequately trained and familiar with communications and warning procedures as outlined in this Plan and the agencies' own SOGs.

3. Record keeping and accounting procedures will be according to

appropriate county/city regulations, ordinances, etc.

B. Logistics:

1. SOGs for the security and protection of communication equipment will be developed for the following:

a. Protection from lightning, wind, and power surges.

b. Overload (telephone)

1) Line-load control 2) Priority of service restoration

2. Requisition & Supply, see Resource and Supply, Annex G.

VIII. ANNEX DEVELOPMENT AND MAINTENANCE

ANNEX C

EMERGENCY PUBLIC INFORMATION I. PURPOSE

To provide for the timely release of accurate public safety information to the residents of Warren County in the event of a disaster or emergency


A. Situation:

1. Warren County could be affected by several types of disasters, which would require the dissemination of information and instructions to the general public.

2. There are no prominent groups of non-English speaking people in Warren

County. Dissemination of information will be in English. If necessary, the translation of emergency public information will be coordinated with the area schools' foreign languages staff. According to the U.S. Bureau of Census 2000 96.9% of Warren County speak the English language at home. It would be assumed that a certain percentage of these people that do not speak English at home would know and understand the English language.

B. Assumptions:

1. The media serving Warren County will cooperate with local officials in the

dissemination of information to the public. (See Appendix 4 of this Annex.) 2. Widespread or major disasters may result in state and national media coverage.

Media personnel from state and national levels will not necessarily be familiar with the Warren County news release procedures.

3. Media personnel will attempt to obtain information from other than "official

sources". 4. Federal and State officials may be on-site and called upon for information. Such

Federal and State agencies will provide Public Information Officer (PIO) support to Warren County, if requested.

5. More than one local public information officer may be involved during

emergency operations. Release of public information will be coordinated with appropriate county and city officials, as necessary.

Warren County EOP C - 1 JAN 2004

6. During an actual or impending emergency, or international crisis, the public will expect local government to provide specific information relating to safety, survival, and protection of property.

7. An effective Public Information program will reduce casualties and damages.


A. General:

1. The Public Information Officer will be located in the Warren County EOC (or at a location to be designated when this Plan is implemented). This place will serve as the single official point of contact for the media during an emergency

2. The Warren County Commission or their designated PIO representative

shall approve the release of all official public information. 3. Only that information released by the County Commission or the

designated PIO will be considered official. The media will be so informed.

4. Information for release will be prepared and released to the media in

accordance with the format described in Appendix 2 to this Annex. 5. Response organizations are responsible for coordinating with the PIO for

clearing press releases with the jurisdiction's elected officials or their designated PIO representative before releasing information to the media for public use.

6. Any person, department, or agency releasing information to the public of

their own volition will bear the responsibility for any legal or moral ramifications and repercussions resulting from that release.

7. Dissemination of public information will utilize all media methods:

television, radio, and newspaper. Activation of the Emergency Alert System (EAS), if necessary, will be in accordance with the State Emergency Alert Operational Plan.

8. Public information personnel in the field will coordinate with the PIO

through frequent contacts with the EOC or staff.

9. Periodic briefings as necessary for media personnel will be conducted by the County Commissioners or their designated PIO.


10. A rumor control section will answer inquiries from the public and monitor public media broadcasts to insure the public is receiving accurate information

11. A major task of public information operations will be responding to

inquiries. The PIO must establish procedures to inform families on the status of relatives that are injured, missing or deceased, emergency services that are available damaged and/or restricted areas due to a disaster event, etc.

12. Prepare Emergency Public Information (EPI) materials that address

survival tips for the sheltering in-place, earthquakes, tornados and flooding.)

13. The PIO will work with the Health and Medical Coordinator to prepare the

emergency public information EPI materials that describe the health risks associated with each hazard, the appropriate self-help or first aid actions, and other appropriate survival measures.

14. Should the need arise; the PIO will see that EPI materials are prepared for

the visually impaired and non-English-speaking groups.

15. The PIO will coordinate with the Emergency Management Director to prepare instructions for people who must evacuate from a high-risk area (as a result of flooding, dam failure, etc.). These EPI materials will include the following for each threat.

a. Definition of the population at risk

b. Evacuation routes

c. Suggestions on the types and quantities of clothing, food, medical items,

etc., evacuees should take with them

d. Locations of reception areas/shelters e. Safe travel routes for return to residence

f. Centrally located staging areas and pickup points for evacuees without

private automobiles or other means of transportation

g. Instructions which show the location of reception centers, shelters and lodging, feeding facilities, and medical clinics, etc., in the hosting area.

16. When an emergency occurs or threatens to occur that requires the dissemination

of emergency public information to the public, the PIO will release this information as soon as possible.


17. The PIO will coordinate with State, Federal, and private sector agencies to obtain technical information (health risks, weather, etc.) for release to the public and media.

18. Release of public information will include pre-disaster education and answering

inquiries.

B. Actions to be Taken By Operational Time Frames:

1. Mitigation

a. Develop and conduct Public Information Programs stressing hazard awareness and personal protection measures.

b. Establish agreements with all local information media (television, radio,

ANNEX D

DAMAGE ASSESSMENT I. PURPOSE

A. Following any type of disaster occurrence, one of the most important tasks to be performed is a complete damage assessment. It is necessary to (1) insure the safety of local residents, (2) establish priorities for repair of public facilities and roads, (3) determine if outside assistance is necessary, and (4) plan mitigation measures that will lessen the effect of future occurrences.

B. The purpose of this Annex is to organize existing personnel in Warren County and the

communities therein in such a manner that the assessments can be completed in a timely manner with results that will be consistent with State and Federal guidelines.


A. Situation:

1. Any of the identified hazards that could affect Warren County (See Basic Plan, Situation and Assumptions) has the potential for causing extensive public and private damage.

2. A thorough damage assessment is essential before a community can:

a. Conduct effective emergency operations.

b. Recover from the effects of a disaster in a manner that will insure safety

while minimizing the time required for the recovery.

c. Mitigate against future disasters.

3. All disaster relief programs exist at the federal level; therefore, damage estimation will be completed following federal guidelines.

4. Chapter 44, RSMo provides for the establishment of the Structural Assessment

and Visual Evaluation (SAVE) Volunteer Program to be activated in the event of a catastrophic earthquake or other natural disaster. This program allows the services of architects, professional engineers and building inspectors to assist local officials in the inspection of buildings. Inspection forms used by the SAVE Coalition are contained in Appendix 3 to this Annex. Requests for these services are made through the State Emergency Management Agency.

Warren County EOP D - 1 JAN 2004

5. There may be other disaster situations where the volunteers mentioned above would not be needed, but there is still a need for the local jurisdiction to conduct damage assessments in order to determine the magnitude and impact of the incident on individuals, businesses, and the public infrastructure within that jurisdiction. These initial assessments will normally be conducted by that jurisdiction's personnel.

6. To assist local jurisdiction in conducting these assessments and to provide a

standard method of reporting that information, SEMA has developed several Damage Assessment Forms (see Appendix 2 to this Annex). Instructions for completing these forms are also included in this Appendix.

B. Assumptions:

1. This Annex and all procedures therein will be developed with the assistance of

State personnel. 2. Following a major disaster, State and Federal personnel will be available to assist

in the final damage estimation as well as Structural Assessment and Visual Evaluation (SAVE) Coalition.

3. A properly completed damage assessment may initiate future legislation that may

mitigate or lessen the effects of future disasters. III. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS

A. General:

1. Survey teams dispatched from the EOC will make damage assessments in Warren County.

2. These teams will consist mainly of county officials and American Red Cross

Damage Assessment Teams, but could also include skilled persons from the private sector (real estate agents, insurance agents, contractors, etc.).

3. There are two types of damage assessments:

a. The first type of damage reports are those that come in during an actual

emergency. These reports may come from government employees operating in the field or from private citizens. They are useful in allocating resources during the disaster and in prioritizing recovery operations afterwards.

b. The second type is the assessment completed after a disaster. It is made by

highly trained individuals (damage survey teams) and is a more comprehensive structural damage assessment. This comprehensive


assessment is important in developing recovery plans, seeking outside assistance, and mitigating future disasters.

4. Communications equipment for the survey team will be provided by the Warren

County Emergency Management Agency. Additional support will be provided by the Warren County E-911 Joint Communications Center (See Annex B). Additional support may be required by the various emergency sections.

5. When Federal/State damage survey teams are working in Warren County, a

member of the local damage survey team and/or a local official will accompany them.

6. There will be two types of damage surveys completed. One will be of damage to

privately owned structures and property and the other will be of damage to public/government owned structures and property.

7. If the necessary response is beyond the capability of the local jurisdiction, the

chief executive or his/her designated successor may request assistance from the Governor through the State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA). SEMA will conduct a joint damage assessment with local officials to determine the extent of the incident and the need for state assistance. If recovery from the incident is beyond the capability of the local and state government, SEMA will initiate the request for a federal damage assessment from FEMA. NOTE: Federal assistance is supplemental to State assistance, which is supplemental to local capabilities.

8. In anticipation of making a request to the President for federal assistance, SEMA,

in cooperation with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), will conduct a preliminary damage assessment with one of two different teams. One team assesses the effects of damage to individuals, residences, and small businesses (Individual Damage Assessment) and is comprised of, but not limited to, SEMA, FEMA, Red Cross, and Small Business Administration (SBA). The other team will assess damages to the public infrastructure (Public Assistance Assessment) and is usually comprised of, but not limited to, FEMA and SEMA personnel. Individuals from the Missouri Department of Transportation, Missouri Department of Natural Resources, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers may also be used depending on the situation. Appropriate local officials will accompany each team and participate in the surveys.

9. If the situation is determined to be beyond the capability of local and state

government, the Governor may request from the President either an "Emergency" or "Major Disaster" declaration for assistance. The Governor's request for federal assistance is sent through FEMA, Region VII, Kansas City, to their national office in Washington, D.C., and hence to the President for consideration.

10. If FEMA determines that the impact of the incident is not beyond the combined

capabilities of the local and state government, a presidential disaster declaration will not be received.


11. If the President grants federal assistance, the President will declare either an emergency or major disaster and implement the applicable disaster assistance programs as provided for under the provisions of the Robert T. Stafford Act under Public Law 93-288, as amended.

12. If a presidential disaster declaration is received, the State and Federal

governments will disseminate the disaster assistance information to the public through the news media.

13. SEMA and FEMA may, with the assistance of the local government, may

establish Disaster Recovery Centers (DRCs) where individuals may come and obtain information/assistance from various government agencies and private organizations. Counseling for disaster victims may also be available at these centers. The local, state, and federal emergency management organizations will jointly determine the locations, dates, and times of operation for the DRCs which would most benefit the disaster victims.

ANNEX E

LAW ENFORCEMENT I. PURPOSE

A. Law enforcement agencies deal with emergencies on a regular day-to-day basis. This is the nature of their occupation. Adequate resources are normally available to cope with any occurrence that should arise.

B. During a disaster, however, these resources could be exhausted before a situation is

brought under control. This Annex will organize local law enforcement personnel and develop procedures that will enable Warren County to provide law enforcement services regardless of the situation.


A. Situation:

1. Warren County could find itself subjected to many hazards (See Basic Plan, Situation and Assumptions) that would threaten the lives and property of its citizens. In each of these, local law enforcement personnel will have a major response role.

2. The Warren County Sheriff's Department, along with other municipal police

departments, provides law enforcement services in the County. (See Appendix 1 to this Annex).

3. Local law enforcement resources are adequate to meet most day-to-day situations

that could arise, but an emergency could occur that would exceed local capabilities.

4. Outside law enforcement resources (Federal, State and other local) are available

to support operations in Warren County. 5. In addition to normal law enforcement procedures, special training for personnel

will be required in the areas of:

a. Hazardous materials incidents b. Riot control c. Weather Spotting

6. See Annex N (Terrorism) for additional information, law enforcement

relationships, duties and responsibilities.

Warren County EOP E - 1 JAN 2004

B. Assumptions:

1. During a disaster, local law enforcement personnel will respond as directed in this

Plan. Situations may arise that could tax or exceed local law enforcement capabilities. If Warren County finds itself with insufficient manpower, equipment, or special expertise needed to maintain law and order, assistance from outside resources may be called upon to respond.

2. Situations will arise that will tax or exceed local law enforcement capabilities. 3. If additional law enforcement personnel, equipment, or special expertise is

needed, outside resources will respond when called upon to do so.


A. General:

1. The law enforcement activities described in this Annex are an extension of normal day-to-day activities and deal only with extraordinary situations that may completely saturate available resources and involve several jurisdictions. (See Appendix 3 to the Basic Plan.)

2. In addition to being the lead agency in certain response situations (i.e., riots,

hostage situations, etc.) the law enforcement section will provide security and support in all other emergencies that threaten life and property.

3. Local law enforcement agencies will primarily performed law

enforcement functions, while outside agencies will be used for traffic and crowd control.

4. Emergency operations will be directed from the EOC or forward

command post within the affected area. Questions concerning a lead agency in such a disaster situation will be resolved in the EOC (See Appendix 3 to the Basic Plan.)

5. The Warren County Sheriff's Department will control law enforcement

operations in all unincorporated areas of the County, while the Municipal Police Chiefs will control operations within the boundaries of their respective jurisdictions.

ANNEX G

RESOURCE & SUPPLY I. PURPOSE

In order to deal with the many types of disasters that could affect Warren County, local resources must be utilized in a timely manner. This Annex was designed to give the local officials the ability (1) to maintain a continuous inventory of these resources and, (2) to allocate these resources in a prompt and orderly manner.


A. Situation:

1. As this Annex is designed to provide for the management of the resources in

Warren County, a priority should be given to those resources, which could be used to combat the hazards identified in the Basic Plan, under Situation and Assumptions.

2. Procedures will be set up to request assistance both within the county and from

outside. 3. A system must be set up to insure adequate inventories of response resources are

available. 4. The local Resources and Supply function will have to anticipate resource needs

for all types of hazards and provide the coordination necessary for the proper allocation of these resources.

5. Local resources will have to be used first before outside assistance is required.

B. Assumptions:

1. During an emergency of a disaster magnitude, persons who own or control private

resources will cooperate without giving first thought to payment. 2. Funds to provide payment for the use of private resources will be available either

from local government or (if the disaster is severe enough) from the Federal government.

3. Warren County officials will not request outside assistance until all local sources

have been exhausted (including mutual aid agreements). 4. If the emergency response period lasts more than 24 hours, outside assistance will

probably be required.

Warren County EOP G - 1 JAN 2004

5. During a disaster or emergency, the County Commissioners may elect to suspend

or modify the normal supply requisition procedures. 6. Following an emergency of this magnitude, private resources will be available

that have not been included on the resource lists (especially manpower).


A. General:

1. The first resources to be identified will be those that are under the control of, or readily available to, local government.

3. All local resources must be committed before assistance is requested from neighboring jurisdictions or upper levels of government.

4. Normal supply requisition procedures will be followed to purchase supplies. These procedures may be bypassed with the approval of the Warren County Commissioners.

5. Field operation facilities (i.e., staging areas, mobilization centers, etc.) will be established as necessary to receive, assemble and distribute resources and supplies. Staging areas will be identified and established as necessary.

B. Tasks to be accomplished by Operational Time Frame:

e. Develop procedures that can circumvent normal procurement procedures during an emergency period.

2. It is the responsibility of local government to mobilize these resources as necessary to relieve suffering and to protect lives and property.

1. Mitigation

a. Review those hazards that threaten Warren County (see the Basic Plan, Situation & Assumptions) to determine what types of resources would be necessary to deal with them.

b. Locate the required resources in the community.

ANNEX H

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS RESPONSE

I. PURPOSE:

A. Hazardous Materials Response is written as Annex H to the Warren County All Hazard Emergency Operations Plan under the guidelines of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reorganization Act (SARA Title III). Other legislation used as guidance includes OSHA 1910.20 as incorporated in EPA Regulation governing the State.

B. This Plan establishes the policies and procedures under which Warren County will

operate in the event of a hazardous material incident. C. This Plan defines the roles, responsibilities and relationships of government and private

organizations in response to a hazardous material incident. D. This Plan provides assurance of appropriate response to protect the population, property

and the environment of Warren County in the event of a hazardous material incident involving transportation, use, storage, or processing of hazardous materials.


A. Situation:

1. Warren County is located in East Central Missouri just west of St. Charles

County, and north of the Missouri River. Its borders encompass 429 square miles of varied terrain and seven incorporated municipalities, many of whose residents commute into St. Louis metropolitan area.

2. Based on the 2000 census, Warren County has a population of 24,525. The incorporated cities within the county are: Foristell, Village of Innsbrook, Marthasville, Village of Pendelton, Truesdale, Warrenton and Wright City. The county is chiefly rural in nature, but it does have some light manufacturing along the I-70 corridor and adjacent railroad line.

3. Three major highways cross the county: I-70 (East-West), Hwy 47 North/South) and Hwy 94 (East -West along the Missouri River). One active railroad runs also East-West (Norfolk and Southern).

4. Three pipelines run through the county; one carries ammonia, the other two carry petroleum products. (See Appendix 4).

5. There are several fixed facilities in the county that use or store extremely

hazardous substances EHS. (See Appendix 5)

Warren County EOP H - 1 JAN 2004

6. There are a number of fixed facilities in Warren County that use or store

hazardous substances. (See Appendix 6) 7. The Southern parts of the county, including Hwy 47 & 94, are located within

flood plains. Flooding in the past has resulted in run-off of agricultural chemicals and petroleum products into the Missouri River.

8. Resources in Warren County for response to a major HAZMAT incident are

limited. Response to a serious incident (Level II or III) will in most cases require outside resources, mutual aid, State and/or Federal government and the private sector.


B. Assumptions:

1. Proper implementation of this Annex and its supporting procedures will reduce or prevent releases and related exposure to the public and environmental damage.

2. The greatest threat of a serious hazardous material incident in Warren County is posed by transportation related accidents. The greatest risk will more likely occur along I-70 or along the Norfolk and Southern railroad line. Other state highways in the county, mainly Hwy 47 and Hwy 94, pose a lesser risk due to the lighter volume of traffic.

3. There are a small number of fixed site facilities reporting Extremely Hazardous Substances (EHS). Planning for these facilities will be carried out using a three-tiered Hazard Analysis. Present levels of inventories reported via Tier II forms by fixed site facilities storing and/or processing hazardous materials pose a relatively small threat to the general population.

4. Protective actions for the general population may include in-place sheltering and/or evacuation. Many of the residents in the risk area will evacuate to private homes or shelters of their own choosing.

A. General: 1. Warren County does not have the resources to neutralize the effects of a serious

hazardous substance release and must turn to outside government and private agencies for assistance. The county has the capability to provide logistical support for these outside agencies and to coordinate off-site protective actions.

2. Warren County has the capability to make a first response to a hazardous

materials release with local response agencies, with personnel that are trained at the awareness or operations level. This response will be defensive and is to assess


the severity of the incident, classify the emergency as shown below and start the notification chain and/or the response chain.

B. Actions to be taken by Operation Time Frames

Mitigation

1. Develop after-action reports to include:

a. Actions taken;

2. Review plans and procedures with key personnel and make revisions and changes.

3. Develop safety programs that include disaster situations for presentation to the public.

4. Develop training programs for local fire departments and emergency medical services.

b. Personnel costs and materials expended;

c. Assistance received from and given to other agencies; and,

d. Problem areas to address corrective measures.

5. Identify facilities such as hospitals, nursing homes and adult congregate living

facilities (ACLFs) that could create special problems before or during an evacuation.

6. Participate in tests, exercises and drills. 7. Establish liaison with private area resources that could be useful in the event of a

HAZMAT incident. 8. Develop SOGs to meet anticipated needs. 9. Review and update the annex and SOGs at least annually. Call-up lists should be

reviewed twice a year.

10. Initiate and conduct training programs.

Preparedness

1. Alert key personnel according to the procedures established in departmental call-up lists.

2. Determine the status of equipment and resources.


Response

1. Initiate the hazardous materials annex or plans to include possible evacuation, area control and clean-up.

2. Alert or activate off-duty and auxiliary personnel as the emergency requires.

4. Replenish supplies and repair damaged equipment.

C. Levels of Response:

The classification of Levels in a hazardous materials incident differs from the emergency classifications generally found in All Hazards Emergency Operations Plans. In a HAZMAT incident the response level is based on the characteristics of the chemical involved, the size or potential size of the spill and the threat posed to life, property and the environment.

1. Level I: PROBABLE EMERGENCY CONDITION

No evacuation other than from the immediate scene. This level of incident does not pose a chemical exposure hazard to first responders in fire service using dermal and respiratory gear. Examples of Level I incidents are: minor releases of fuel from vehicular accidents, small releases of corrosives, and illegally discarded chemical containers that are not in danger of releasing substances. EOC not activated.

3. Notify DNR at 800/334-6946 or 573/634-2436.

4. Coordinate activities with other agencies.

5. Coordinate the response of those responding from outside the incident area.

6. Activate mutual aid agreements if needed.

7. Relay the damage reports. Advance warning of all potential problem areas should be included in the report to the SEOC.

8. Maintain records of actions, problems and costs.

Recovery

1. Continue to participate in clean-up. Assist in damage assessment.

2. Report on all activities to direction and control.

3. Submit expense reports on personnel, resources and supplies expended.


2. Level II: LIMITED EMERGENCY SITUATION

An incident involving a high hazard or larger area that also poses threat to life or property may require a limited evacuation of the surrounding area. These incidents may require outside assistance if it is necessary to stop the release. Examples of this level may be releases of significant quantities of volatile organic at fixed facilities or cargo tank releases in transportation. EOC partially staffed.

3. Level III: FULL EMERGENCY SITUATION

An incident or accident involving severe potential exposure for the responders or the general public. Mitigation may require a large-scale evacuation and the expertise or resources of private industry and state and federal governments. EOC fully staffed.

3) County or City agency such as highway or sanitation department.

B. Response Functions

1. Initial Notification Of Response Organizations:

a. When a hazardous substance spill occurs, notification of the Warren

County E-911 Joint Communications Center Dispatch may come from a variety of sources:

1) Citizens. 2) Fixed Facility.

4) County or City response agency.

b. The Warren County E-911 Joint Communications Center Dispatcher receiving this first report must give priority to alert the Fire Department in the appropriate jurisdiction. The dispatcher must then try to obtain as much information as possible from the first source or the first responder. (Appendix 7)

1) Identification of caller and how contact can be maintained. 2) What happened? Where and When? 3) Injuries? 4) Chemical name or identity (Placard). 5) Estimated quantity. 6) Type and condition of containers. 7) Shipping information 8) First estimate of Incident Level

c. The Center dispatcher then alerts Law Enforcement, EMS and the County

Coordinator passing on above information to all responding units. (Appendix 2)

d. Depending on the classification of the incident, many emergency functions

may be necessary for the appropriate response. Notifications will be made in accordance with procedures found in the Functional Annexes of the Warren County Emergency Operating Plan. If a determination is made that the release exceeds the reportable quantity the spiller shall notify the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MODNR) and the Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC).


e. Public Warnings will be issued in accordance with procedure set forth in (Annex C Emergency Public Information) Warren County Emergency Operating Plan. Priorities for initiating response actions will be based on these public protective options:

1) EVACUATION: Evacuation can be completely effective if accomplished prior to the arrival of the toxic cloud. (See Annex J, Evacuation).

2) IN-PLACE SHELTERING: In some cases, advising people to stay indoors and attempting to reduce airflow into a structure may be the most effective protective action. (See Annex K, Sheltering In-Place).

3) INGESTION ADVISORY: Drinking water and food crops may be contaminated by a chemical release. The public must be warned of a threat o food and water supplies. (See Annex C, Emergency Public Information)

4) SEWAGE and RUN-OFF: A Hazardous chemical release may contaminate sewage systems or area streams and lakes. Such contamination could create a public health threat and serious environmental problems.


3. First responders from the above agencies must be qualified at operations level. The maximum level of personal protection available to these responders is: Structural firefighting protective clothing in combination with positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). This protection is limited to a range of chemicals listed in the North American Emergency Response Guide (NAERG) Manual. Consequently, operations level response for Warren County will be defensive and not compromise the safety of the responders. Also see DOT Manual on Hazardous Material.

A. Incident Command/Management System:

1. Responders to a hazardous materials emergency Level II or III in Warren County will operate using the Incident Management System (IMS). To affect the fastest response, Warren County is served by nine Fire Protection Districts; each district is responsible for the area located in their jurisdictions. (See Basic Plan and Levels of Responses)

2. In the event of a hazardous materials incident, the Fire Chief of the home venue

will be the Incident Ranking Officer. In his absence the highest ranking department officer present will assume Incident Commander/Manager. In his absence, command will be assumed by the IMS trained person until a qualified fire service person arrives. Incident Commander/Manager must be qualified at IMS level.


4. When an incident is classified a Level II or III HAZMAT emergency (beyond local response control), The Incident Ranking Officer must immediately request appropriate mutual aid and/or assistance at Federal and State level. (See Annex F)

5. In preparation for logistical support of outside assistance the Incident Ranking Officer activates the Emergency Operating Center.

B. Direction and Control Procedures:

1. The Direction and Control function is the combined capability of Incident Management Post (IMP) and the Emergency Operating Center (EOC) in a larger scale chemical emergency Level II or III. The Management structure linking IM and EOC is the Incident Management System (IMS). The Incident Ranking Officer will maintain control of the scene and coordinate all actions related to the incident and assigns specific responsibilities to IM and the EOC.

2. Incident Management System. The purpose of the IMS is to provide on-site, a unified management of all participating agencies to ensure coordinated operations, simplification of communications, performance of logistical tasks, and to assist the Incident Management Ranking Officer with the overall management of incident activities.

3. Emergency Operating Center. The EOC, which is isolated by distance from the immediate pressures of ongoing mitigation at the scene, is the focal point for coordination of resource requirements in support of both on-site and off-site activities.

4. Typical for On-Site support: Coordination of local resources with HAZMAT

teams in transit to the emergency. Transmittal and follow-up of requests for mutual aid or public works assistance. Manning resource boards to track incoming resources and optimizing use of available communications.

5. Typical Off-Site support: Coordination of evacuations, sheltering, public health

and social services. 6. The EOC is a single point for collection, evaluation, display and dissemination of

information to develop current status, to aid in decision making process, to track costs and to provide documentation for investigative follow up.

7. The EOC is located in the Warren County Joint E-911 Communications Center

Dispatch. For a large hazardous chemical incident, the St. Charles Mobile Management Post is available through mutual aid agreement.

8. The Warren County EMA Director is in charge of EOC operations under direction

of the Incident Management Ranking Officer. The Incident Ranking Officer, at his discretion, may assign IMS personnel to the EOC for liaison or functional assignments


C. Communications Among Responders:

1. During emergency operations, all departments will use their existing equipment

and procedures to communicate with their field operations. (See Annex B).

2. Warren County Joint E-911 Communication Center will forward (relay) all messages to the EOC.

D. Response Personnel Safety:

1. To reduce the risks to first responders in the event of a hazardous material incident, health and safety procedures have been developed that include:

a. Medical Surveillance in the Safe Zone

b. Establishment of Exclusion Zones

c. Personnel Protective Equipment 2. Medical Surveillance: An EMT (or paramedic) from either the Emergency

Medical Service or the Rescue Squad should be charged with the responsibility for surveillance of the first response team for any indicators of the effects of toxic exposure.

3. Exclusion Zones: Exclusion Zones are the safety perimeters established around a

hazardous material release. These are shown schematically in the following figure and are defined as follows:

Hot Zone

Incident Commander

Incident Command Post

Safe Zone

Contamination Control Zone

Hazmat Release


a. HOT ZONE: The area of maximum hazard. All personnel entering the hot zone must wear prescribed levels of protective equipment. A single entry and exit checkpoint must be established at the perimeter of the hot zone to regulate and account for the flow of personnel and equipment into and out of the zone.

c. SAFE ZONE: The unrestricted area beyond the outer perimeter of the

contamination control zone. The management post, the HAZMAT response team and support agencies are located here.

c. EXCLUSION ZONES: Must be set up for any HAZMAT incident. For a Level I incident this can be accomplished, at a minimum, with a HOT ZONE and an informal Management Post. The NAERG and DOT Guidebook list many chemicals where SCBA and structural protective clothing provide some protection to permit control of a small release. Release of chemicals, where the NAERG guide shows that the above protective equipment is not effective, must be treated as a level II incident.

4. LEVEL II and LEVEL III: Incidents require establishment of the three-tiered exclusion zones (HOT, CONTAMINATION CONTROL, SAFE). The size of each perimeter must be determined by the nature of the material involved, atmospheric conditions and magnitude of the incident.

E. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

1. Protective Equipment available to Warren County first responders is structural firefighter’s protective clothing together with positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). This combination provides only limited protection for a number of chemicals shown in the DOT guidebook.

2. Members of outside HAZMAT teams dispatched to enter exclusion zones of a incident occurring in Warren County will have LEVEL A and LEVEL B personal protective equipment at their disposal because maximum respiratory protection is required when entering environments containing unknown substances or known substances in unknown concentrations.

b. CONTAMINATION CONTROL ZONE: Surrounds the hot zone and is also a restricted area. The level of personal protection required is less stringent than that of the hot zone. The decontamination unit (if needed) is located here, as is the Safety Officer and immediate support and security personnel.

a. LEVEL A protection will be worn when the highest level of respiratory, skin, eye and mucous membrane protection is needed.

b. LEVEL B protection will be selected when the highest level of respiratory protection is needed, but with a lower level of skin and eye protection.


Level B protection is the minimum level recommended on initial site entries until the hazards have been further identified.

a. LEVEL OF THE INCIDENT: Initiate response activities commensurate

with the severity of the incident. Resolution of a Level II or III incident in Warren County will always require outside assistance of Mutual aid fire department and/or Federal, State or private agencies. The rules for notifications are summarized as follows:

b. TRANSPORTATION INCIDENTS: It is the shipper’s responsibility to

initiate emergency clean-up and assistance response once notified of a leak, accident or incident. The Incident Ranking Officer shall call the emergency response telephone number listed on the shipping papers. If the shipping papers are not, CHEMTREC shall be called with the following information if available: Truck Line Name, Placard Number on truck/containers and call back number for incident commander or dispatcher. Once the shipper or manufacturer has be notified the responsibility is then shifted to the shipper or manufacturer for on scene assistance and clean-up.

F. FIRE AND RESCUE

1. When the Warren County Joint E-911 Communications Center Dispatch has notified the fire department in the appropriate jurisdiction of an incident involving a release of a hazardous materials the officer in charge of the first unit at the scene shall implement the Management Structure of the Incident Management System.

2. During the initial phase of the incident, the Incident Ranking Officer shall:

c. FIXED SITE FACILITY INCIDENTS: Chemical incidents occurring within a fixed site facility are the responsibility of the facility, emorganization. If control is transferred, or if the incident poses a threat outside of the facility, the Fire Department is in charge and prIMS. The Incident Ranking Officer directs facility personnel to remany chemicals that may increase or catalyze the fire, cause excreate toxic gas releases or cause environmental damage. For outside assistance the Incident Ranking Officer shall notify the NATIONAL RESPONSE CENTER (NRC). The NRC will initiate responthe Federal On-Scene Coordinator (OSC). The OSC will determfederal course of action.

d. FEDERAL ON-SCENE COORDINATOR: The OSC acts as a consultant to the Incident Commander/Manager (Ranking Officer). The OSC, however, is in control of and directs all Federal and State agencies on the scene that are committed as part of the National Contingency plan.


e. The following table reviews incident levels and the appropriate response activities:

RESPONSE LEVEL III FULL EMERGENCY CONDITION

An incident involving a severe hazard or a large area which poses an extreme threat to life and property and will probably require a large-scale evacuation; or an incident requiring the combined expertise or resources of county, federal and private agencies.

RESPONSE: Active-----All Level I, II and Mutual Aid Agencies

Missouri Department of Health, U.S. EPA MDNR may not become actively involved in response but should be used as

SEMA for large-scale support, i.e., mass evacuations, use of National Guard Technical consultants

RESPONSE LEVEL I An incident or threat of a release, which can be controlled by first responders and does not require evacuation of other than the structure or immediate outdoor area. The incident is confined to a small area and does not pose an immediate threat to life or property.

POTENTIAL EMERGENCY CONDITION

RESPONSE: Active-----Fire Department, Law Enforcement Standby---EMS, Partial EOC, County Coordinator Notify-----If required: MDNR (by spiller)

If required shipper or CHEMTREC (transportation), NRC (fixed site)

RESPONSE LEVEL II LIMITED EMERGENCY SITUATION

An incident involving a greater hazard or larger area which poses a potential threat to life or property and which may require a limited evacuation of the surrounding area.

RESPONSE: Active-----Fire Department, Law Enforcement, EMS, EOC, County Coordinator Standby---Mutual Aid, Public Works, County Sanitarian, Social Services Notify-----MDNR (by spiller)

Shipper or CHEMTREC (transportation), NRC (fixed site)


f. Establish Exclusion Zones (SEE RESPONSE PERSONNEL SAFETY ) g. Because Personal Protective Equipment available to Warren County first

responders is limited, operations in the HOT ZONE and CONTAMINATION CONTROL ZONE are restricted. Responders that have been imported, via the response chain, are either HAZMAT teams that have trained as a unit or Contract Specialists working together with individual HAZMAT technicians.

h. A typical HAZMAT team is comprised of:

c. Assist residents in relocation, and provide direction out of the area and to shelters.

G. LAW ENFORCEMENT:

1. LAW ENFORCMENT: (Awareness Level recommended) is handled by the Warren County Sheriff’s Department or by the municipal Police Departments within the boundaries of their jurisdictions. Mutual aid agreements are in force between all law enforcement agencies in the county, and with outside agencies.

2. ON-SCENE CONTROL: Establishes scene perimeters, access control points,

and traffic control points. Provide additional resources for traffic and crowd control.

3. EVACUATION: The order to evacuate must come from the Chief Elected

Official. When there are time constraints, limited evacuation can be ordered by the Incident Ranking Officer. The Law Enforcement agency designated by the IRO or EOC is in charge and will direct the evacuation effort.

a. Isolate affected area and permit entry only to appropriate response

personnel. b. Notify residents in the affected area.

d. Provide security for evacuated areas and reroute traffic around the affected

area. e. Coordinate all search efforts for missing persons. f. Assist in return of residents, upon “all clear” order.


H. EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES (Minimum Awareness Level)

1. (Awareness Level recommended) Assigns priorities of medical treatment on the

basis of urgency and for transporting casualties from the incident site to appropriate medical facilities. Only members of the HAZMAT Team under direction of the Safety Officer can remove victims from the HOT ZONE and supervise appropriate decontamination procedures.

2. Provides a liaison between medical personnel and the Incident

Commander/Manager (Ranking Officer). Notify area hospitals as to what chemicals are involved, and what decontamination and exposure situations will be necessary for proper handling and care of victims.

3. Provides medical assistance to Incident Commander/Manager (Ranking Officer)

on signs and symptoms of chemicals involved. Monitor decontamination (from Safe Zone) to ensure victims are properly decontaminated, before accepting victims.

I. ON-GOING INCIDENT ASSESSMENT

1. During the active period of a continuing major release, resources dispatched by MDNR are responsible to monitor on-site quantity, concentration and movement of spilled material. Based on their recommendations, the Incident Ranking Officer must initiate immediate actions in terms of response personnel safety and citizen’s protection.

2. Decisions dealing with citizen’s protection on a large scale particularly those

dealing with residual effects such as short or long-term contamination of food and water supplies as well as structures and soil, must rely on input from specialized resources dispatched by State or Federal agencies.

J. WARNING AND EMERGENCY PUBLIC NOTIFICATION

Procedures to warn the public of any highly probable and immediate danger are found in Annex C of the Warren County Emergency Operations Plan.

K. PUBLIC INFORMATION

Procedures to provide the public with accurate information of the progress of a HAZMAT incident are found in Annex D of the Warren County Emergency Operations Plan. Annex D also provides a public information program to educate citizens about Safety and Personal Protection during an ongoing incident.


L. PERSONAL PROTECTION OF CITIZENS

1. In-Place Sheltering:

a. When the progression of a HAZMAT incident indicates that segments of the population need to be isolated from a spreading chemical plume, in-place sheltering is the first consideration for protective action. (See Annex K In-Place Sheltering).

b. In-Place Sheltering is viable when:

1) The nature and concentration of the chemical in the plume is not

life threatening. (It may, however, be quite noxious) 2) The size of the release and given atmospheric conditions indicate

rapid dispersal of the chemical. 3) When a toxic plume approaches so rapidly that timely evacuation

cannot be carried out.

c. In-Place Sheltering gets people out of the open into buildings with doors and windows closed. In older buildings that have relatively high air leakage rates, it is advisable to shut down air circulation systems (heating systems, air conditioning systems, particularly window-mounted units). In modern energy efficient buildings, air circulation systems tend to build up positive pressure inside which counteracts air leakage inside, but only if fresh air supply is shut off.

d. Technical input to support the decision to order In-Place Sheltering comes from the CAMEO computerized air dispersion model or the Table of Initial Isolation given in the DOT Guidebook.

2. Evacuation Procedures:

a. The Hazardous Material Incident of sufficient magnitude to trigger an evacuation will most probably come from a transportation-related accident. For that reason, Warren County is not subdivided into pre-assigned Risk Zones. The area at risk must be determined from the site of the accident, taking into account the toxicity and magnitude of the release and atmospheric conditions. Inputs from the DOT Guidebook or CAMEO are invaluable.

b. Evacuation procedures are found in Annex J of the Warren County Emergency Operations Plan. Annex J also contains procedures to guide returning evacuees once the evacuated area is declared safe.


3. Other Public Protection Strategies: See Basic Plan of the Warren County EOP and Annex J

a. RELOCATION: Some hazardous materials incidents may contaminate

the soil or water of an area and pose a chronic threat to people living there. It may be necessary for people to move out of the area for a substantial period of time until the area is decontaminated or until natural weathering or decay reduces the hazard.

b. WATER SUPPLY PROTECTION: Surface and ground water supplies

can be contaminated by a hazardous chemical release. Local Public Works Officials must provide quick identification of a threat to the drinking water supply and notification to the public. Officials should also notify the public of alternate sources for safe drinking water.

c. SEWAGE SYSTEM PROTECTION: A hazardous chemical entering the

sewage system can cause serious and long-term damage to a treatment plant. It may be necessary to divert sewage, creating another public health threat and environmental problems.

M. HUMAN SERVICES:

1. The Emergency Management Agency coordinates the various aspects of human

services. Services on a small scale can be provided by local volunteer organizations. Larger scale requirements must be met by Disaster Assistance Agencies through their state or regional organizations (American Red Cross, Salvation Army, and Missouri Division of Family Support.)

2. Annex M of the Warren County Emergency Operations Plan covers procedures

for Human Services in general terms.

N. HEALTH AND MEDICAL SERVICES:

The Warren County Public Health Department and the Warren County Sanitarian will respond to the incident if requested, or to the EOC if activated.

1. Will assist in contacting the appropriate State and Federal Agencies as needed. 2. To test or provide for testing of water, air, soil or food as applicable. 3. Provide local representation with state and Federal agencies dealing with

containment of hazardous material.


O. PUBLIC WORKS:

1. In the event of a hazardous material incident, the County Road Department or the appropriate municipal public works department will assist the Incident Manager or the EOC staff as needed. The Public Works services can extend to all or some of the following activities:

a. Debris removal from public right-of-ways only. b. Construction of earthen dikes to contain spills or re-route them around

critical areas such as water supplies and sewer inlets. c. Road and bridge repairs. d. Barricade installation. e. Evacuation assistance.

b. Annex I of the Warren County Emergency Operations Plan covers procedures for

the deployment of the Warren County Road and Bridge Department and Municipal Public Works Department.

P. RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

1. Mitigation of problems caused by a HAZMAT incident may require resources

found in the public and private sectors. Annex G of the Warren County Emergency Operating Plan covers procedures for Resource and Supply.

2. See Annex G for procedures for Resource Management.

VI. CONTAINMENT AND RESTORATION:

A. Responsibilities:

1. The responsibility for selecting and implementing the appropriate counter-measures is assigned to the Incident Commander/Manager in coordination with the EOC and appropriate technical resources.

2. The spiller is responsible by law for the costs of all cleanup and countermeasures.

The Incident Commander/Manager together with State and Federal resources is responsible for determining these measures and monitoring the cleanup and disposal of contaminated materials. Federal and State resources have companies on contract to respond to hazardous materials incidents if the responsible parties are unknown, or are unwilling or unable to respond correctly.


3. The Incident Commander/Manager is responsible for monitoring the response activity to ensure that appropriate containment and control techniques are being initiated. Containment methods may include:

a. Retention Dikes

b. Berms and drains

c. Trenches

d. Booms

e. Barriers in soil

f. Stream diversion

g. Patching and plugging of containers or vessels

h. Portable catch basins

i. Over-packed drums or other forms of containerization

j. Reorientation of the container

4. The Incident Commander/Manager, in conjunction with the EOC, will secure private contractors for displacement techniques. These may include:

a. Hydraulic and mechanical dredging

b. Excavating

c. Skimming

d. Pumping

e. Dispersion/dilution

f. Vacuuming

5. Treatment of spilled hazardous substances can be either physical, chemical or biological in nature. Treatment operations are the responsibility of the operator. Monitoring responsibility is assigned to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR).


B. Restoration

1. The County Emergency Management Agency, in conjunction with State and Federal authorities, is in charge of restoration efforts.

2. Treatment of contaminated soils and sediments is a responsibility of the spiller.

3. When feasible, contaminated soils and sediments will be treated on the site. Technologies available include:

d. Encapsulation

e. Solution mining (soil washing or soil flushing)

f. Neutralization/detoxification

a. Incineration b. Wet air oxidation c. Solidification

g. Microbiological degradation

4. Off-site transportation or storage, treatment, destruction, or secure disposition off-

site must be provided by the spiller in cases where State or Federal EPA determines such actions.

VII. DOCUMENTATION AND INVESTIGATIVE FOLLOW-UP

A. LEVEL I HAZMAT INCIDENT:

1. In case of a Level I HAZMAT incident the Incident Ranking Officer must submit to the County Director of EMA a brief description of the incident and response rendered. Where the spill exceeded reporting requirements the Incident Ranking Officer must ascertain that the spiller has notified the appropriate State and Federal agencies.

2. The County Director of EMD will compile a log of all HAZMAT incidents in

Warren County. B. LEVEL II AND III HAZMAT INCIDENT:

1. The County Director of EMA is responsible for preparation of a report that

summarizes the entire incident including cause of incident, damage assessment, and actual cost of response activities, incident critique and conclusions.


2. The Warren County E-911 Communications Center Dispatching Supervisor shall document all communications between the Incident Management Post, the Warren County E-911 Communications Center Dispatch and other response agencies. The Incident Commander/Manager shall be responsible for submitting a complete report of the incident that includes, but not limited to the following information: location, material and quantity released, owner or operator, source of spill, health or physical hazards generated and response activities. This report shall be submitted to the County EMD thirty days of the incident.

3. For incidents occurring in a fixed facility, the owner or operator is required to

submit a follow-up report similar to the above to the County Director of EMA and the appropriate State and Federal Agencies.

4. The County/City Attorney is responsible for preparing an investigative report in

order to facilitate cost recovery. VIII. TRAINING AND EXERCISING

A. Training:

Training will be based on the duties and functions to be performed by each responder of an emergency response organization. The skill and knowledge levels required for all new responders, those hired after the effective date of this standard, shall be conveyed to them through training before they are permitted to take part in actual emergency operations on an incident. Responders who participate in a chemical emergency shall be given training in accordance with the following paragraphs: 1. First Responder - Awareness Level

First Responders at the awareness level are individuals who are likely to witness or discover a hazardous substance release and who have been trained to initiate an emergency response sequence by notifying the proper authorities of the release. They would take no further actions beyond notifying the authorities (Warren County E-911 Communications Dispatch Center) of the release. First responders at the awareness level shall have sufficient training or had sufficient experience to objectively demonstrate competency in the following areas:

a. An understanding of what hazardous materials are, and the risks

associated with them in an accident.

b. POPULATION WITHIN VULNERABLE ZONE:

Facilities 109 -112 The vulnerable zones predicted for the four facilities will spread over sparsely populated areas in the county.

3. RISK ANALYSIS - All Facilities

a. LIKELIHOOD OF HAZARD OCCURRENCE

Medium. Manual switching of process cylinder poses a potential risk for a release.

b. CONSEQUENCES IF PEOPLE ARE EXPOSED Low. Although chlorine gas may be fatal if inhaled, the relatively small amounts of

chlorine released in a closed building poses a low risk outside of the facilities. The release will dissipate within 40 to 45 minutes.

In-place sheltering is recommended for the nursing home and school. Speed in notifying

endangered population is essential.

c. CONSEQUENCES FOR PROPERTY Superficial damage to facility equipment.

d. CONSEQUENCES OF ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE

Some damage to surrounding vegetation.

e. LIKELIHOOD/SEVERITY OF CONSEQUENCES

Medium likelihood. Low severity of consequences outside of facilities.


2. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

a. LOCATION (H-36) ID No. Quantity (lbs) 105 Pipeline

108 156,000

b. CREDIBLE WORST CASE ASSUMPTION Quantity released from active supply tanks over a period of 10 minutes. For the Fertilizer

plant (108) liquid Ammonia is dispensed through tank bottom discharge. A rupture in the discharge manifold will cause a continuous two-phase flow (mostly liquid Ammonia at the source) at the release rate shown.

No worst case analysis was made for a pipeline incident.

107 10,000

113 10,000

The refrigeration systems in plant 113 is charged with gaseous Ammonia withdrawn

through a discharge manifold on top of the supply tanks. A rupture in the discharge manifolds releases gaseous Ammonia initially at a high rate until internal tank pressures are reduced to atmospheric pressure.

Facility Total Release (lbs/10 min) 105 Pipeline 107 10,000

c. PROPERTIES

108 10,000 113 400

Poisonous; may be fatal if inhaled. Vapors cause irritation of eyes and respiratory tract. Liquid will burn skin and eyes. Contact with liquid may cause frostbite. Effects may be delayed. Although not flammable, will burn within certain vapor limits and increase fire hazard in the presence of oil and other combustible materials.

b. POPULATION WITHIN VULNERABLE ZONE

Facility 105 This pipeline is buried underground and crosses the county in a west to east direction. Depending on where the rupture/leak occurs will determine the population impact.

3. RISK ANALYSIS - All Facilities

a. LIKELIHOOD OF HAZARD OCCURRENCE

Facility 105 High. Release is in the open. Exposure to ammonia vapors can

cause irritation to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Exposure to high concentrations can cause difficulty in breathing and in extreme cases death.


Facility 107-108 High. Release is in the open. Workers in the area will be exposed to concentrations above the IDLH. Dissipation of the tanks contents may take several hours.

Facilities 113 Low. Although Ammonia gas may be fatal if inhaled, the

relatively small amounts of Ammonia released in a closed building poses a low risk outside of the facilities. The initial release will be fueled by continuing boiling of Ammonia (at a lower rate) in the supply tank until the contents are exhausted or repairs are made.

c. CONSEQUENCES FOR PROPERTY

Facility 105 No damage to other surrounding property other than repairable

damage to the pipeline. Facility 107-108 Repairable damage to facility equipment. Facility 113 Repairable damage to facility equipment.

d. CONSEQUENCES OF ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE Facility 105 Severe damage to vegetation in the immediate vicinity of the

ANNEX I

PUBLIC WORKS I. PURPOSE

The ability of local government to protect life and property in Warren County following or during a disaster could well depend on how fast all utilities are restored or how soon debris can be removed from the roads. This Annex will organize local public works resources in such a manner that they will be able to perform the many tasks that are essential to an effective emergency (disaster) response.


3. The residents of Warren County and its municipalities are served by

several different public utility departments, utility districts and private utility companies. See Appendix 3 to this Annex for a list of these departments, districts and companies.

4. Private resources are available in the county to assist in Public Works activities.

5. Outside resources are available to assist, should all local resources become committed.

6. Public Works”, for the purpose of this Plan, refers to electric, natural gas,

water, streets/roads, bridges, sewer, sanitation, and telephone service.

A. Situation:

1. Warren County is subject to many types of hazards (See Basic Plan, Situation and Assumptions). In this Annex, public works refers to the duties and responsibilities assigned to Warren County Roads Department. The Warren County Roads Department could become involved in any of these and could be asked to perform any of a large number of assignments.

2. The Warren County Roads and Bridge Department is responsible for the construction and maintenance of all county-owned roads and bridges in its road system. Municipalities in the county are responsible for the construction and maintenance of all roads, streets and bridges in their jurisdiction. Missouri Department of Transportation is responsible for the construction and maintenance of the interstate road system, all state highways/roads, bridges and overpasses in their road system.

ANNEX J

EVACUATION I. PURPOSE

The movement of people and property from the areas "at risk" to a safer place is a concept as old as mankind. This Annex will give Warren County the guidelines under which they can accomplish such an evacuation. This function must be applicable to small localized situations as well as for a whole-scale countywide movement should the need arise.


A. Situation:

1. Warren County is subject to several hazards (See Basic Plan, Situation and Assumptions) that could threaten the lives and property of its citizens and require evacuation operations. Such hazards would be flooding, dam failure, and hazardous materials incidents, pipeline rupture.

2. Warren County has a very good transportation network that will facilitate any

evacuation of the general population (See Appendix 8 to this Annex). 3. There are several special facilities, such as nursing homes, that will require

special consideration in this Annex. 4. In the event of a serious hazardous materials incident in Warren County, most

likely it will be a transportation-related accident. A hazardous material incident would mostly likely occur on Interstate 70 or along the Norfolk Southern Railroad. Highway 47 and 94 could also be the site of a potential hazardous material incident, but to a lesser extent due to a lighter volume of truck traffic.

B. Assumptions:

1. In almost every emergency situation requiring evacuation, a number of people

will evacuate on their own volition.

2. It can be anticipated that the majority of persons will receive and follow the

evacuation instructions. However, a certain portion of the population (l) will not get the information, (2) will not understand it or (3) purposely not follow directions.

3. In all cases, an adequate number of county and/or city emergency personnel will be available to accomplish the tasks necessary to complete the evacuation.

Warren County EOP J - 1 JAN 2004

4. Panic by evacuees should not be a problem as long as the Public Information Officer (PIO) furnishes adequate information.

6. Looting of evacuated areas is possible, but it should be contained by the Sheriff

Department.

7. Assistance, in planning for, and in conducting actual evacuations, will be provided by higher levels of government.

8. Evacuations within the municipalities will be the responsibility of the affected municipality. Warren County will provide assistance upon request.

5. Evacuation will be primarily by family groups using privately-owned vehicles with transportation being provided for those persons without automobiles.


1. The ultimate responsibility for ordering an evacuation rests with local government; hence, it should only be implemented by the County Commission or a designated successor.

2. During any evacuation, close coordination will be required with the following functions:

b. Law Enforcement -- Traffic control along movement routes and security for evacuated areas are an absolute necessity.

A. General

a. Reception & Care -- The evacuees must have some place to go even if it is

in another county; whether it is a full-fledged evacuation or a limited evacuation in scope.

c. Resource & Supply -- Transportation for persons without automobiles, food, clothing, and fuel will be required.

d. Other support agencies -- Constant interface will be required with the

State and Federal government and private agencies such as the American Red Cross.

3. The duration of the evacuation will be determined by the County Commission

based on technical information furnished by Federal, State and local agencies. 4. Certain day-to-day governmental activities will be curtailed during evacuations.

The degree to which this is necessary will, of course, depend upon the amount of local resources that are committed.


5. Transportation will be provided for patients/residents of various institutions requiring special care or attention (i.e., nursing homes, schools, etc.). Appendix 2 to this Annex lists these facilities.

6. During the evacuation, staging areas and pickup points will be identified to

provide transportation for those people without private automobiles or other means (See Appendix 3 to this Annex.)

7. Assistance in planning for and in conducting actual evacuations will be provided

by higher levels of government. 8. Evacuations within the municipalities will be the responsibility of the affected

municipality. Warren County will provide assistance upon request.

B. Tasks to be accomplished by Operating Time Frame

1. Mitigation

a. Identify the known risk areas to be evacuated and the rationale for their evacuation (See Appendices to this Annex).

b. Identify population groups or facilities requiring special assistance in an

evacuation and the methods to evacuate them (such as nursing homes, childcare centers, eldercare centers, senior citizens and persons who are visually, mobility impaired, and medically dependent,).

c. Identify and make agreements with private organizations that can facilitate

evacuations (i.e., service stations, garages, fuel distributors, bus companies, etc.). This should be done in conjunction with the head of the Resource and Supply section (See Annex G).

d. Coordinate with the Public Information Officer (PIO) to develop public

information packets to detail evacuation routes, what evacuees should take with them, where they should go, etc. (See Annex C).

e. Develop contingency plans that provide for potential impediments to

evacuation (physical barrier, time, lack of transportation resources, etc.). f. Develop plans to deal with vehicles with mechanical problems.

g. Coordinate all evacuation plans with the State Emergency Management

Agency.


2. Preparedness

a. Analyze all developing emergencies for potential evacuation situations to include number of evacuees.

b. Alert reception and care of possible evacuation and obtain location of

available reception centers. c. Identify necessary evacuation routes and check the status and condition of

each one (coordinate with Law Enforcement).

f. Through the Direction and Control section, alert all other emergency sections that an evacuation may be required.

g. Check with law enforcement to provide for security and parking in the reception area.

h. Inform the public of the potential evacuation to include the nature of the problem, the movement route to use, and the reception area to go to.

i. If necessary, make plans to evacuate government and critical workers.

2) Reception areas

d. If appropriate, contact road service groups (wreckers, service stations,

etc.). e. Locate transportation for all persons in threatened area.

3. Response

a. Order evacuation, when necessary. b. Notify all appropriate agencies to include State and Federal. c. Monitor the following actions to insure the evacuation functions smoothly:

1) Traffic flow

3) Security for evacuated area

d. Broadcast public information continuously during the evacuation to minimize confusion.

e. Coordinate with and furnish information on the situation to the other emergency services.

f. Assist in the transfer of necessary supplies and personnel to reception

areas, especially if these areas are outside the affected jurisdiction.


g. As the evacuation winds down, begin planning for the return.


h. Designate rest areas along movement routes where evacuees can obtain fuel, water, medical aid, vehicle maintenance, information, and comfort facilities. (This would apply to evacuations that require a long distance of travel away from the affected area.)

i. Provide for transportation for essential workers who might have to work in or near the hazardous areas.

j. Make provisions for the evacuation of handicapped, elderly, and institutionalized persons.

4. Recovery:

a. Initiate return when conditions will allow this to be done safely. This will include advising evacuees on what to do to reenter the evacuated area (i.e., what return routes to use, instructing public to boil water, procedures for turning on gas, etc.).

b. Monitor all return activities until the return is completed. c. Prepare and present after action reports to governing authorities.

A. Organization:

The organizational chart for the evacuation function is shown in Appendix 1 to this Annex.


1. In most cases, the direction and control section will make all major decisions pertaining to evacuation. The County Commissioners will normally issue the order for evacuation. In the event of a fast developing, life-threatening situation, fire officials and law enforcement officials can order an evacuation.

2. In Warren County the responding fire protection district will be the first responders, thus in charge initially (See Appendix 4 to Basic Plan).

3. Traffic control and site security will be the responsibility of the Law Enforcement section (See Annex E). The Sheriff’s Department will control these activities in the County while the Police Departments will do the same in the municipalities. The Sheriff’s Department will also be responsible for the relocation of prisoners from the County Jail to adjacent county jail facilities, if necessary.


4. In some instances, when time is of the utmost importance, the chief law enforcement or fire official at the scene can initiate an evacuation. (An example here is a hazardous materials incident.)

5. Public transportation resources will be the responsibility of the Resource and Supply Coordinator (See Annex G, Resource and Supply).

6. The dissemination of information and instructions to inform and motivate residents to comply with evacuation plans will be the responsibility of the Emergency Public Information section (See Annex C, Emergency Public Information).

7. Other sections will provide support as necessary to meet the needs of the emergency.


A. All evacuation operations will be coordinated through the EOC of the affected jurisdiction(s), which will serve as the source of all Direction and Control.

B. Should the order come to evacuate the entire county, operations will be controlled from a nearby safe location.


A. The line of succession for Evacuation Section: (See Basic Plan)

1. Emergency Management Director

2. Deputy Emergency Management

C. Preservation of records will be a major priority during a major evacuation. Resources will be allocated to move vital government records as necessary.

3. County Commission

B. If citizens are evacuated to a neighboring jurisdiction, a local official from the evacuated

area will be designated as liaison between the hazard area and reception area. The evacuees will be subject to the laws of the reception area for the duration of their stay.


A. Each jurisdiction is responsible for the procurement of its own essential supplies needed for evacuation operations, through normal procurement channels.


B. Requisition of privately owned property will be in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 44, RSMo.

C. The county may elect to use county-owned vehicles to supplement the evacuation of citizens without transportation of their own. Formal arrangements for outside resources should be made. Transportation resources available for mass evacuation may include the following types of vehicles:

1. School buses

2. Church buses

3. Privately-owned buses or vans

4. County vehicles

VIII. ANNEX DEVELOPMENT & MAINTENANCE

It is the responsibility of the Warren County Emergency Management Director to maintain and update this Annex at least yearly.


submitted to the County Commissioners for approval. 2. All revisions will be dated and recorded and provided to all holders on record. Revised

STAGING AREAS FOR EVACUATION

C. The locations selected for staging areas are sites that are suitable for:

2. Warren County R-3 (High School), Warrenton, MO 63383

3. Warren County R-2 (High School), Wright City, MO 63390

A. Staging areas are locations that may be used in the event an evacuation has been ordered which would require evacuees to relocate to a safe area, possibly outside their community. Those evacuees who do not have transportation would go to these staging areas where transportation will be provided to move them to a designated safe area.

B. In addition, staging areas can be used as pick-up and drop-off points for resources and

supplies into the affected area.

1. People who need transportation

2. Assembling equipment and supplies.

D. The following facilities represent centrally located, easily accessible, collection points for county

and city residents. Which sites to be used would be determined by the situation and prior agreement between the school districts and local government.

1. Washington School District (Marthasville Elementary School), Marthasville, MO 63357

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS EVACUATION

I. PURPOSE

Provide for the orderly and coordinated evacuation of those people in Warren County whose health and/or lives are endangered as a result of accidental exposure to hazardous materials (HAZMAT). Such exposure could result from either a mishap involving the transport of HAZMAT or the accidental release of such materials from a fixed facility or terrorism.


A. Situation:

Warren County is exposed daily to hazardous materials being transported across its highways, pipelines that transverse the county, and also from the storage of these materials in containment areas.

B. Assumptions:

1. In 1988, statewide hazardous materials incidents were reported in the following categories: Fixed facility/storage - 51%; railroad - 2%; pipeline - 2% and other making up the remaining 30%.

2. Hazardous materials incidents may occur without any other emergencies being involved, such as an accidental release resulting from the structural failure of a container or a leaking valve.

3. Such incidents could pose a significant threat to the health and safety of response personnel, as well as others in the immediate area.

4. The Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) recognizes the responsibility

regarding public health and safety, as well as the implementation and exercise of the Warren County Hazardous Materials Emergency Operations Plan.

III. EVACUATION RESPONSE PROCEDURE

A. If no evacuation is required:

1. Secure the area. Since law enforcement personnel are able to respond quickly, they should cordon off the affected area.


2. Dispatch Hazardous Materials Team. Normally this would be part of the local fire department or a task force composed of members of several services within local government (e.g., members of the State's Radiological Response Team.

3. Alert other Departments/Agencies. Other local governmental units such as fire,

water, sewer, and street departments should be informed of the situation. Also, notify Missouri's Department of Natural Resources (DNR), the State Emergency Management Agency as required, and CHEMTREC if necessary.

B. If evacuation is required and an order is made to evacuate:

1. Designate the area to be evacuated. This information should be as clear and

concise as possible in order to aid those who are assisting in the evacuation, as well as for those being evacuated.

2. Establish perimeter security. The purpose is to limit, or prohibit, entry into the

affected area.

3. Activate an emergency shelter plan, if necessary. Many evacuees will stay with friends or neighbors for short periods of time; if duration is longer, the affected community should be relocated and it would become necessary to prepare evacuation facilities/centers for long-term occupancy.

4. Notify affected persons. All persons within affected area must be contacted. This

is best accomplished on a door-to-door basis, use of loudspeakers, or by government-manned telephones, depending upon the situation. Records should be kept of location of homes/buildings visited, times and dates, and results of attempted visits. (See Appendix 9 to this Annex.)

5. Return of affected persons. Once the area is declared safe, a public information

program should so inform evacuees when to return, what to expect upon return (i.e., how to turn utilities back on, etc.), and how to request additional information. Also, local government should warn the citizens of other related hazards so as to alert them to changes in their environment.


Attachment A To Appendix 4 To Annex J

EMERGENCY PROCEDURES FOR LOCAL AUTHORITIES

RADIOLOGICAL ACCIDENTS AND INCIDENTS I. PURPOSE:

This Annex will serve as a guide and checklist for local authorities in handling a peacetime radiological emergency until qualified radiation safety specialists arrive at the accident scene.

II. EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

When an incident involving radioactive material occurs, the following emergency actions and precautions should be taken:

A. Take any steps necessary to protect human life. Emergency medical procedures should

not be denied just because radioactive material may be involved. Safeguard property insofar as possible.

B. Call the State Emergency Management Agency at the following numbers:

1. Daytime: (573) 526-9100 2. Nighttime: (573) 751-2747 Pager Duty Officer

C. Be prepared to give as much of the following information as possible.

1. Name, location and phone number of person making report.

2. Name of possessor of radioactive material in question, (e.g., licensee, consignee, consignor, carrier, etc.)

3. Description of incident:

a. Nature of incident b. Time of incident

c. Location of incident

d. Accessibility of incident site

e. Extent of injuries to personnel


f. Have injured and/or exposed persons been given treatment: Transported to a Hospital? Which one?

g. Possible hazard to public

D. Other agencies already notified.

E. Keep the public as far from the scene of the incident as reasonably possible. Prevent

souvenir hunting and handling of debris. F. Isolate for further examination those persons who may have had contact with the

radioactive material. Obtain names and addresses of those involved.

G. Remove moderately injured persons from the possibly contaminated area unless medically contra-indicated. Hold them at a transfer point for first aid. If serious injury has occurred, demanding more than first aid measures, the patient should be sent at once to the nearest emergency room for medical attention. Do not deny emergency medical service because of fear of contamination. Be sure to advise ambulance personnel and hospital of the radiological nature of the incident, including the amount and isotope involved, if possible. Medical first aid is directed primarily at restoration of breathing, control of hemorrhage, splinting for fractures, and prevention of shock and control of pain. These are carried out for an exposed person in the same basic fashion as for non-exposed individuals. Radiological first aid consists of cleansing the skin of obvious dirt1 (possibly contamination) and, if feasible, carefully removing the outer garments2 and shoes of the patient and wrapping him mummy fashion in a blanket, sheet, canvas, or large coat. By this measure, any remaining radioactive contamination is contained and, if the wrapping is carefully done, the victim can be moved readily with little likelihood of spreading contamination.

H. If incidents involve fire, fight fires from up-wind whenever possible. Treat them as fires involving toxic chemicals. Keep out of smoke, fumes, or dust resulting from the incident. Segregate clothing and tools used at the fire until they can be surveyed for radioactive contamination before being returned to normal use. Do not handle suspected material until it has been monitored and released by qualified technical experts.

I. If possible, save washing and wipes; treat them as radioactive waste. J. Outer garments and shoes must be saved for survey.

K. In the event of a vehicle accident involving radioactive material, detour all traffic around the accident scene. If this is not possible, move the vehicle or vehicles involved the shortest distance necessary to clear the right-of-way. If radioactive material is spilled, prevent the passage of vehicles and people through the area until it has been surveyed. If the right-of-way must be cleared before the Nuclear Emergency Team arrives, wash spillage to the shoulders of the right-of-way with a minimum dispersal of wash water. If a large amount of material is spilled build a cofferdam to hold runoff.


L. When in doubt that the radioactive material is still confined to its container, assume that the immediate incident area is contaminated and that anyone and any thing in the area MAY BE contaminated. Take special care to minimize unnecessary personal contact with the outer clothing of individuals, the surface of the ground, vegetation, and the surface of things within or removed from the incident area.

M. Do not eat, drink, or smoke in the incident area. Do not use food or drinking water that

may have been in contact with material from the incident area until it has been declared safe.

O. In the case of a nuclear weapons incident, take steps to insure the security as well as the safety of any classified information or components or radioactive material in the area until the arrival of Department of Defense personnel.

NOTE: This circular may be reproduced by local emergency response organizations. However, it must

N. Do not try to do too much beyond emergency action prior to the arrival of a qualified radiation safety expert.

be reproduced exactly and in its entirety.



FLOOD EVACUATION

I. PURPOSE

Provide for the orderly and coordinated evacuation of people from those areas of Warren County which are vulnerable to slow developing flooding, and flash flooding.


A. Situation:

1. Warren County is vulnerable to a wide range of atmospheric conditions that produce weather that is variable and subject to rapid change.

2. Flooding has historically posed problems for many parts of Warren County and several of its communities.

3. Warren County is vulnerable to low land flooding resulting from periods of high-density rains.

1. Floods are generally caused by rainstorms lasting several days and moving northeastward across the area and occur frequently from January to May.

4. Warren County is also vulnerable to flooding resulting from dam failure or an

uncontrolled release of water from the many dams located throughout the county.

B. Assumptions:

2. Floods may occur as two distinct types of flooding or may occur singly or in combination. The types are commonly referred to as backwater and headwater flooding.

3. Local authorities will take immediate steps to warn and evacuate citizens, alleviate suffering, protect life and property and commit available resources before requesting assistance from the next higher level of government.

III. NATIONAL FLOOD INSURANCE PROGRAM

1. The National Flood Insurance Program is in effect in Warren County.

2. The unincorporated areas of Warren County and several of the communities have flood maps available. These detailed maps delineate the flood areas and thus show where


evacuation would be likely should unfavorable weather conditions persist. (See Attachment A to this Appendix.)

3. Due to the quantity and size of flood maps available for Warren County, they are not reproduced in this Plan. Copies of the County Flood Maps are available in the County Planning and Zoning Office, while the various city maps are available in the respective community's City Hall. (See Attachment A, Appendix 5 to Annex J).

IV. INITIAL EVACUATION RESPONS

E

A. Receive warning:

The National Weather Service, through a monitoring and warning system, is able to give advance notice of gradual flooding hours and even days before it results in serious loss of life and property.

1. The National Weather Service also may issue a Flash Flood Watch, which means heavy rains may result in flash flooding in a specified area. Residents should be alert and prepared for the possibility of a flood emergency, which may require immediate action.

2. The National Weather Service also may issue a Flash Flood Warning, which means flash flooding is occurring or is imminent in a specified area. Residents should move to safe ground immediately.

B. Notify public:

It is the joint responsibility of the National Weather Service and/or the local government entity to issue a warning via radio, television, etc. Early warning, if possible, would enable those in flood hazard areas to move or safeguard their property, thus simplifying evacuation should it become eminent.

V. EVACUATION

A. Designate the flood hazards area to be evacuated. Use the flood hazard maps for street description and to determine areas to be evacuated.

B. Establish a perimeter security. The purpose is to limit access to looters and sightseers,

but to allow egress by victims.

C. Establish shelters areas/relief services for victims. It must be decided when to open such facilities and where they should be located. Location of shelter areas and assistance in the form of food and clothing could be supplied by the Ministerial Alliance, local Red Cross, etc.


D. Notify affected persons. If early warning is not effective all remaining persons within the

designated flood area must be contacted. This is best accomplished on a door-to-door basis, loudspeakers on patrol cars, or government-manned telephones. A method to record location of visits, times, dates, and results of attempted visits should be devised (See Appendix 8 to this Annex).

E. Return of flood victims. Once the flood waters recede, a public information program

should so inform the evacuees when to return, what to expect upon return (i.e., how to turn the utilities back on, how to purify water, etc.) and of services being offered by local government, such as pumping basements and debris removal. Also, local government would warn of other related hazards so persons would be alert to changes in their environment.



DAM FAILURE I. DEFINITION

Dam Failure - downstream flooding due to the partial or complete collapse of any impoundment.

II. SITUATION

A. A large number of earthen dams exist in Warren County, many being susceptible to

breaching and overtopping. B. Dam failure is associated with intense rainfall and prolonged flood conditions. However,

dam breaks may also occur during dry periods as a result of progressive erosion of an embankment caused by seepage leaks. Dam failure may also be caused by earthquake.

C. The greatest threat from dam breaks is to areas immediately downstream. The seriously

affected population would be located in the potential downstream inundation area as identified by the Corps of Engineers or State agencies.

III. DAM INVENTORY

A. In 1980 an inventory of Non-Federal Dams in Missouri was compiled by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, Division of Geology and Land Survey, under a contract with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Louis District. A total of 114 earthen dams were identified in Warren County. Of these dams, there are 28 high hazard dams, 46 significant hazard and 40 low hazard. The hazard rating is based on the contents of the downstream environment zone.

B. The term "dam," is defined as an artificial barrier which impounds or diverts water and:

1. Is more than 6 feet high and stores 50 acre-feet or more, or, 2. Are 25 feet or more high and stores more than 15 acre-feet.

Excluded are: 1. Levees used to prevent water from reaching certain areas. 2. Sewage lagoon levees.


Attachment A to Appendix 6 to Annex J

DAM FAILURE CLASSIFICATIONS

The National Inventory of Dam uses the letters H, S, and L, which stand for High, Significant, and Low, respectively. The meaning of these classifications is as follows: H (High)- Loss of one or more human lives expected; economic, environmental and lifeline losses expected S (Significant)- No loss of life expected; economic, environmental, and lifeline losses expected L (Low)- No loss of life expected; probability of economic, environmental and lifeline losses low, and generally limited to owner The Missouri Dam and Reservoir Safety Council uses the numbers 1, 2, and 3, to designate Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3 downstream environmental zones, respectively. These are defined as follows: Class 1- Contains ten or more permanent dwellings or any public building Class 2- Contains one to nine permanent dwellings, or one or more campgrounds with permanent water, sewer, and electrical services or one or more industrial buildings Class 3- All dams not included as class 1 or class 2 As you can see, the State uses a very different system to classify dams according to the downstream hazard. We have attempted to assign numerical ratings to unregulated dams based on the original inventory classification and our knowledge of the area. However, these ratings are best estimates and may not be accurate in every case. Also, for dams under 35 feet, we generally do not keep track of downstream development that has occurred in the 23 years that have elapsed since the original inventory was completed. Thus, many of the classifications shown for unregulated dams will have changed in the intervening years. Unfortunately, we do not have sufficient staffing to keep our records up-to-date for these dams.

ANNEX K

I. PURPOSE

IN-PLACE SHELTERING

The purpose of this Annex is to enhance the ability of Warren County and its municipalities to protect their residents in or near their homes when an incident has occurred with little or no warning and/or it would not be safe for residents to leave their current locations.


2. In some disaster situations, such as earthquakes and tornadoes, local government has a very limited role in providing protection to its residents. In cases such as these, proper warning and immediate sheltering instructions are essential.

1. Most homes have a several day supply of food on hand.

2. Persons will shelter in place when requested to do so.

A. Situation:

1. In-place shelter will be used in a situation requiring protection for residents from the effects of a hazardous materials incident, tornado, earthquake or a terrorist attack whenever evacuation is not the safe or prudent action to take at that time.

3. Public shelters have been identified in Annex L for public use as a mass care

shelter in an emergency/disaster situation.

B. Assumptions:

3. Those persons with specific personal requirements (i.e., medications, food,

diapers, etc.) will have a several day supply on hand.


A. General

1. The two options for protecting the population are evacuation and sheltering In Place. Warren County Officials will implement one or the other or possibly both options based in the information available at the time of the incident or disaster situation.

Warren County EOP K - 1 JAN 2004

a. Evacuation will be considered based on the conditions at the selected destination and the risk of exposure to the disaster agent/chemical while in route. Evacuation operations are discussed in Annex J.

B. Actions to be taken by Operating Time Frames

b. Develop emergency public information materials for Distribution to the public.

c. Identify potential affected populations as applicable.

2. Preparedness

1) In Place Sheltering guidelines

b. Sheltering In-Place will depend on the relative potential disaster agents provided by the available residential and commercial structures in the community.

2. If people are displaced from their homes by the disaster situation, Temporary housing and mass care shelters must be provided. Mass Care & Reception is discussed in Annex L

3. On scene responders will initiate In-Place Sheltering if the situation warrants. Coordination with the County Commissioners or chief elected officials of the area affected will be made as time permits.

4. Special consideration facility populations must be identified. In Place Sheltering

may be the only option available for these facilities. A list of the special consideration facilities is located in Annex J Appendix 2.

5. Advisories to the affected populations will be made by the most expedient means available, i.e., Emergency Alert System (EAS), Telephone, Television/Cable, etc.

1. Mitigation

a. Work with local officials and emergency responders to develop in- place

shelter education plan.

a. Publish and distribute information on:

2) Warning signals/methods

b. Educate first responders on the potential effectiveness and benefits of sheltering in place when appropriate.


3. Response

a. Monitor on scene conditions and advise shelter areas of “all Clear”.

b. Assess the damages.


a. Assess on scene conditions and determine sheltering requirements, i.e. none, evacuation, or shelter in place.

b. Notify people in affected areas.

c. Furnish emergency public information for broadcast.

d. Report all problems to Direction and Control.

4. Recovery

c. Prepare after action reports. d. Conduct any other actions as necessary to assist returning the situation to

normal.

A. Organization

The organization chart for in-place shelter function is located in Appendix 1To this Annex.).


1. The County Commissioners, Emergency Management Director, fire/rescue officials, or law enforcement officials will make the decision that the residents should shelter in-place. However, in hazardous materials situations, the Incident Commander/Manager can make the decision based of health and safety reasons.

2. The Emergency Management Director will be the In-Place Shelter Coordinator for Warren County. The Coordinator will operate from the EOC or the command center in the affected area, and will coordinate the in place sheltering activities.

3. The In-Place Shelter Coordinator and the Public Information Officer (PIO) are responsible for ensuring the public receives timely and accurate in place shelter information.


V. DIRECTION & CONTROL

All in-place shelter operations will be controlled from the EOC, when possible.



The line of succession for the In-Place Shelter Coordinator is as follows: A. Incident Manager Commander

B. Emergency Management Director

C. County Commissioners

VIII. PLAN DEVELOPMENT & MAINTENANCE

A. Each jurisdiction is responsible for the procurement of its own essential Supplies needed

for sheltering in place, through normal procurement channels. B. Responding agencies must provide necessary logistical support for food, Emergency

power, fuel, etc. for responding personnel during emergency operations. In most situations, however the Resource and Supply Section Annex G will be available to assist with supply matters.

B. All revisions will be dated and recorded and provided to all holders on record. Revised pages will show date of changes.

APPENDICES

Appendix 2 To Annex K

ALL-HAZARD IN-PLACE SHELTER GUIDANCE

The following information should be formulated into public information brochures and distributed to all residents prior to an emergency situation requiring in-place shelter. Warning for these hazards should be accomplished in accordance with Annex B. Information should be provided to the local media for broadcast during an emergency and a public awareness program should be developed to encourage residents to keep supplies on hand and develop a family disaster plan.

TORNADO

During a tornado the safest place to be in the basement under something sturdy.

EARTHQUAKE

If a tornado WARNING is issued and time does not permit residents to travel to public shelters, the best protection during a tornado is to quickly go to the lowest level in the building. The following protective actions should be relayed to the public:

If there is no basement, seek shelter in the middle of the building in a small interior room, such as a closet or bathroom. Stay away from outside doors and windows.

Listen to the radio for further instructions.

Remain in this shelter until the all clear is given from the local authorities or radio station.

(See Appendix 8 To The Basic Plan For Additional Information)

Since earthquakes happen with no warning, residents should be prepared to take in-place shelter in their homes for the first 72 hours following a seismic event. These in-place protective actions should be relayed to the public:

When the shaking starts, stay where you are. If indoors stay inside. If outdoors stay outside.

If indoors, get under a heavy piece of furniture such as a table or desk. Stay away from the windows or other objects that might fall and hit you.

If outdoors stay outside, away from buildings, power lines and trees.

Listen to the radio for further instructions.


HAZARDOUS MATERIALS INCIDENT

ers, fans and vents.

Seal gaps under doors with plastic and tape or pla

If evacuation cannot be accomplished prior to the formation/arrival of a toxic cloud, advising residents to stay indoors and reduce the air flow into these buildings may be the most effective protective action. The following protective action instructions should be relayed to the public:

To reduce the possibility of toxic vapors entering your home:

Close all open windows and doors.

Turn off all ventilations systems, including furnaces, air condition

ce wet towels under doors.

Seal gaps around air conditioning units, bathroom and kitchen vents, stove exhaust vents and dryer vents with tape and plastic.

Close all fireplace dampers.

Close as many internal doors as possible. Remain in protected, interior areas of the building or home until you are instructed to do otherwise. Listen to the radio or television for further instructions.

OTHER Additional hazards which may require in-place shelter include flooding and winter storms. For more information on these hazards, as well as in-place sheltering, see "Are You Ready?--Your Guide to Disaster Preparedness” (H-34 September 2002), published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

A prompt and coordinated response by this section will greatly reduce the number of casualties and ease suffering, the major task for any organization responding to a disaster situation. NOTE: The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, in conjunction with local jurisdictions throughout the state, is developing an emergency response plan for that department. It is not the intent for this Annex to conflict with material it may contain. All, or appropriate sections, of the County Health Department Plan should be incorporated into this LEOP upon its completion.

A. Situation:

1. Although Warren County has no hospitals, the surrounding counties of St. Charles, Franklin Gasconade, Lincoln and St. Louis County have hospitals and health care agencies.

2. Public health for Warren County is the responsibility of the Warren

County Public Health Department, located in Warrenton. They deal with problems such as communicable disease, environmental sanitation problems, contamination of food and water, and other health matters.

3. Ambulance service for Warren County is provided by three (3) ambulance

districts. (See Appendix 3 to this Annex).

4. The St. Louis Metro Area hospitals are tied together in time of emergency by the Hospital Emergency Radio Network.

5. Should the local organization become overtaxed or rendered inoperable, resources are available from the state and adjacent counties to help alleviate the situation.

B. Assumptions:

1. A major disaster striking the Warren County area will create medical problems beyond the normal day-to-day capabilities of the medical system.

2. Outside assistance is available and will respond when needed.

Warren County EOP M - 1 JAN 2004


A. General

1. First responder emergency medical care will be supplied by the ambulance districts with support from the fire and rescue services.

I. Evacuation teams will take care not to overload the morgue site with incoming bodies.

J. The major support group for this task will be the MFDA Disaster / D-MORT Response Team.

:

A. A list of possible morgue sites will be maintained by the Warren County Coroner for use in the event of a disaster.

B. Once a morgue site has been selected, the Coroner and the MFDA Disaster Response

Team Coordinator /D-MORT will organize its operations and assign personnel to some or all of the following job titles:


C. Uniformed Guards, information clerks, counselors, interviewers, telephone communicators, admissions clerk, general supervisor, ID personnel, orderlies, personal effects custodian, embalming supervisor, embalmers, secretaries, inventory clerk, distribution clerk,) etc.

D. The morgue site will be used for the storage, identification, sanitation, and preservation if

desired, as well as the distribution point for release of the dead to their next of kin or their agent.

E. Refrigeration units will be utilized as necessary. F. Bodies admitted to the morgue will be logged and necessary information gathered and

recorded about each body. G. Personal effects will be recorded and placed in a secure area. H. Should embalming be necessary the Coroner will rely on the MFDA Disaster Response

Team / D-MORT to organize the operations, equipment, supplies, and personnel needed. I. An area will be designated for the press, away from the morgue site.

J. Counselors such as members of the clergy will be present in waiting areas to assist

persons visiting the morgue.

VIII. IDENTIFICATION OF THE DEAD:

The Coroner will arrange for the necessary equipment and staff to accomplish this task. The members of the MFDA Disaster Response Team will be at his/her disposal to be of assistance when needed.

IX. NOTIFICATION OF NEXT OF KIN:

The Coroner with the assistance of the MFDA Disaster Response Team will determine the most practical method to be utilized in contacting the next of kin. Every effort will be made to lessen the extreme psychological impact on the families of those dead. The nature and scope of the disaster will determine what methods will be used.

X. COUNSELING OF SURVIVORS:

The Coroner and the MFDA Disaster Response Team will keep listings of local clergy and/or responsible persons trained in counseling with grieving survivors. These personnel will be asked to report to the waiting area of the morgue site to assist families that visit the morgue site. Phone counselors will also assist persons calling the morgue


site. Efforts will be made to keep the families of the dead posted as to what is taking place and information will be released to them as best possible.

XI. RELEASE OF THE DEAD:

A. Once the body has been positively identified, the next of kin will be contacted with this confirmation. At this point the Coroner or MFDA Disaster Response Team personnel will coordinate the release of the body to the next of kin or their agent. All efforts will be made to cooperate with the receiving agent or family. However; the nature and scope of the disaster may require policies that may appear unfair or delayed. These policies may be necessary for the smooth flow of operations at the morgue site. All policies will be made or approved by the Coroner before implemented.

B. In situations where there are UNIDENTIFIED dead, the Coroner will make the

decision about their disposition. Mass burial may be necessary and location of burial sites will be determined at the time. It is suggested however, that cremation not be utilized as later identification and exhumation may be practical and necessary. Records will be kept of burial locations and body tag number will be interred with the body to make later efforts of identification easier.

XII. TERMINATION PROCEDURES:

After the disaster’s clean up operations are completed, efforts will be made to return donated equipment and supplies. Cleaning and sanitizing of morgue site will be necessary. Records compiled during the operations will be arranged in some type of systematic order and efforts will be made to preserve and store these records for future use if necessary.

XIII. MORTUARY RESOURCES

Resource lists pertaining to mortuary services will be compiled by the Warren County Coroner. This information will be furnished to the Warren County Emergency Management Director who will incorporate it into the Warren County Emergency Resource Book.


Appendix 5 of Annex M

LOCAL PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCY PLAN

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A. The Warren County Public Health Emergency Plan (LPHEP) outlines the actions to be taken by

the Local Public Health Agency (LPHA), in conjunction with local government officials and cooperating private and volunteer organizations. A local public health emergency can best be described as an event, which threatens the safety and well being of a number of people in an area, i.e. bio-terrorism incident, anthrax, smallpox, pandemic influenza, etc. To work towards a safer environment the plan has been developed to:

1. Reduce the vulnerability of citizens to any disasters that creates a local public health

emergency. 2. Establish capabilities for protecting citizens from the effects of a local public health

emergency.

The entire LPHEP can be found in the LPHA or with the Emergency Management Director.

3. Respond effectively to the actual occurrence of disasters, and; 4. Provide for recovery in the aftermath of any local public health emergency.

B. The Warren County LPHEP is a multi-hazard, functional plan that has three components:

1. A Basic Plan that serves as an overview of the LPHAs approach to a local public health emergency.

2. Annexes that address specific activities critical to emergency response and recovery, and; 3. Appendices which support each annex and contain technical information, details and

methods for use in emergency operations. C. In the Basic Plan you will find the Primary & support Responsibilities for the local

health department as well as a Hazard Analysis for quick references. Some of the Annexes & Appendices not normally found in an Emergency Plan are: Homeland Security Advisory System, DHSS Activities Corresponding to the Homeland Security Threat Levels, Personnel Specialized in Bio-terrorism Training, Mass Patient Care, Mass Fatality Management, Nuclear & Chemical Incident, Food & Water Borne Outbreaks and a major enclosure concerning the Smallpox Response Plan.

D. The importance of understanding the contents of the plan cannot be underestimated.

All individuals who may have any involvement with the plan must be briefed and understand their roles in it’s implementation. Staff members of the LHPA will be responsible for maintenance, training, updating and developing exercises to improve the plan.


ANNEX N

TERRORISM

I. PURPOSE

The purpose of this Annex is to establish a unified approach for emergency response agencies of Warren County to respond to and recover from a threat or act of terrorism. Also this Annex establishes a terrorism response system that prescribes responsibilities and actions required to respond to and recover from a terrorist event


A. Situation:

1. Warren County has potential targets for terrorist activities. These may include, but are not limited to:

a. Federal, state, county and municipal government facilities and structures.

a. Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). Any weapon designed or intended to cause death or serious bodily injury through the release, dissemination,

b. Military installations. c. HAZMAT Facilities. d. Medical facilities.

e. Religious facilities. f. Businesses and manufacturing centers. g. Airports, railroads, highways and navigable rivers.

h. Pipelines; power plants; public utilities; landmarks; and large public gatherings.

i. Agriculture.

2. Terrorism takes many forms: bombings, arson, infrastructure attacks (on water, electric, gas, or telecommunications systems), mass shootings, cyberspace failure or disruption, transportation attacks (hijacking, bombing or sabotage).

Warren County EOP N-1 JAN 2004

or impact of toxic or poisonous chemicals, or their precursors; any weapon involving a disease organism; or any weapon designed to release radiation or radioactivity at a level dangerous to human life (18 USC 2332a). The USC (18 USC 921) also includes a destructive device, with certain exceptions, to mean “any explosive, incendiary, or poison gas, bomb, grenade, or rocket, missile, mine, or a device similar to the above that will expel a projectile by explosive or other propellant”.

b. Chemical Agent. A chemical substance intended to kill, seriously injure,

or incapacitate people through physiological effects. Hazardous chemicals, including industrial chemicals and agents, can be introduced via aerosol devices (including munitions, sprayers, or aerosol generators), breaking containers, or covert dissemination. A chemical agent attack might release a chemical warfare agent (such as a nerve or blister agent) or an industrial chemical that may have serious consequences. Whether an infectious agent or a hazardous chemical causes an outbreak may not be obvious early in an investigation; however, most chemical attacks are localized, and their effects become evident within a few minutes. Different chemical agents can be persistent or non-persistent. Persistent agents remain in the affected area for hours, days, or weeks. Non-persistent agents have high evaporation rates, are lighter than air, and disperse rapidly; they therefore lose ability to cause casualties after a few minutes (although they may persist longer in small unventilated areas).

c. Biological Agents. Living organisms or materials derived from them that

cause disease; harm humans, animals, or plants; or deteriorate materials. Recognition of a biological hazard can occur by: identifying it as a credible threat; discovering bio-terrorism evidence (devices, agents, clandestine labs); diagnosing a disease caused by an agent identified as a possible bio-terrorism agent; or gathering and interpreting public health surveillance data. People exposed to a pathogen such as anthrax or smallpox may not know they have been exposed, and those infected or subsequently infected may not feel sick for some time. Infectious diseases typically progress with a delay between exposure and onset of illness - the incubation period. The incubation period may range from several hours to a few weeks, depending on the exposure and pathogen. Unlike acute incidents involving explosives or some hazardous chemicals, direct patient care providers and the public health communities are likely to first detect a biological attack on civilians. Terrorists also could use biological agents to affect agricultural commodities (agro-terrorism). These agents include wheat rust or viruses that could devastate the local or even national economy.

d. Radiological/Nuclear. High-energy particles or gamma rays emitted by an

atom undergoing radioactive decay. Emitted particles can be charged alpha or beta particles, or neutral neutrons, or gamma rays. The difficulty of responding to a nuclear or radiological incident is compounded by the nature of radiation itself. Also, involvement of radioactive materials in an


explosion may or may not be obvious; depending on what explosive device was used. The presence of a radiation hazard is difficult to ascertain unless the responders have the proper detection equipment and the training to use it. Most of the many detection devices available are designed to detect specific types and levels of radiation - they are not appropriate for measuring or ruling out the presence of all possible radiological hazards. Terrorists may use the following delivery methods:

1) An Improvised Nuclear Device (IND) is any explosive device

designed to cause a nuclear yield. Either uranium or plutonium isotopes can fuel these devices, depending on the trigger. While “weapons-grade” material increases the efficiency of a device, materials of less than weapons grade can still be used.

2) A Radiological Dispersal Device (RDD) is any explosive device that spreads radioactive material when detonated. A RDD includes an improvised explosive device that could be used by placing it in close proximity to radioactive material. A RDD also includes devices identified as “dirty bombs”.

3) A simple RDD spreads radiological material non-explosively (for example, medical isotopes or waste).

e. Explosives. Conventional explosive devices or improvised bombs used to

cause massive local destruction or to disperse chemical, biological, or radiological agents. Improvised explosive devices are categorized as explosive or incendiary - using high or low filler explosive materials to explode and/or cause fires. Bombs and firebombs are inexpensive and easily constructed. They are not technologically sophisticated. Of all weapons, these are the easiest to obtain and use. The components are readily available, as are detailed instructions for constructing these devices. They are the likeliest terrorist weapons.

f. Cyber Terrorism. “Malicious conduct in cyberspace to commit or threaten

to commit acts dangerous to human life, or against a nation’s critical infrastructures in order to intimidate or coerce a government or civilian population in furtherance of political or social objectives. ”

4. Homeland Security Response Teams (HSRT): SEMA Homeland Security

Response Teams Map (See Appendix 1 to this Annex) shows the locations of existing or proposed Homeland Security Response Teams for the State of Missouri. Several of these teams include hazardous materials response teams with enhanced capabilities for response to WMD incidents, including incidents involving nuclear or radiological materials, biological and chemical agents. The following provides a general overview of their locations, number of teams and capabilities:

a. There are currently twenty-eight (28) Homeland Security Response Teams

located throughout the State of Missouri. (See Appendix 1 to Annex N)


b. Many of the existing teams are continuing to develop their heavy and light search and rescue capabilities, acquire latest technology detection equipment, expand decontamination capability and address logistical support requirements and issues.

c. For all terrorist response operations, the Unified Command System will be

used for Direction and Control.

5. Request for Homeland Security Response Teams (HSRT):

a. In order to deal with a terrorist event, a network of resources must already be in place (personnel, equipment and supplies). The current situation will determine the type of resources needed and techniques to be employed. A rural county may have fewer trained personnel and equipment compared to an urban area.

b. Homeland Security Response Teams (HSRT) is an asset of the State of

Missouri. These teams will be mobilized and deployed by SEMA to support local jurisdiction response and recovery operations.

c. Local jurisdictions must request support from SEMA. Call the SEMA

Duty Officer at (573) 751-2748 (Day/Night) to report or request assistance.

d. Warren County has neither a Homeland Security Response Team (HSRT)

or a Forward Regional Response Team (FRRT) and will require support in responding to the terrorist incident. It is the local jurisdiction's responsibility to contact SEMA and request support.

B. Assumptions:

1. Warren County recognizes the responsibility for public health and safety, and the

need of a plan to set forth guidelines to deal with terrorism, and the need to exercise the procedures, policies, and guidelines set forth in this Annex.

2. Proper implementation of this Annex can reduce the effects a Terrorist attack and

limit related exposure to the public. 3. No single agency at the local, State, or Federal level possesses the authority

and/or the expertise to act unilaterally on the many difficult issues that may arise in response to a threat or act of terrorism, particularly if WMD is involved.

4. Should a terrorist incident be identified, Warren County could be acting alone, pending mobilization and deployment of other local, State and Federal assets.

5. An act of terrorism involving WMD in Warren County could immediately

overwhelm the local response capabilities.


6. Counter-terrorism efforts, including intelligence gathering and appropriate response training, may reduce some incident potential, but incidents can occur with little or no warning.

7. If appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is not readily available, entry into the contaminated area (hot zone) should be delayed until the arrival of trained and equipped emergency response personnel. Responders must also be aware of secondary devices targeting first responders.

8. The policies set forth in this Annex, and any and all plans developed by or for Warren County to mitigate, prepare for, respond to, or recover from any terrorist event, have been coordinated to eliminate dual tasking of resources and identify the proper command and control functions.


A. General:

1. Presidential Decision Directive 39 (PDD-39) was signed in May 1995, shortly after the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building bombing. PDD-39 establishes policy to reduce the United States’ vulnerability to terrorism, deter and respond to terrorism, and strengthen capabilities to detect, prevent, defeat, and manage the consequences of terrorism. This directive is particularly important for planning purposes - it specifies how to manage response to and recovery from a terrorist incident.

2. Homeland Security Presidential Directive 5 (HSPD-5) was signed on February

28, 2003, calling for creation of a National Response Plan (NRP) to “integrate Federal Government domestic prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery plans into one all-discipline, all-hazard plan” under authority of the Secretary of Homeland Security. Under the National Response Plan (NRP), a National Incident Management System (NIMS) is to be developed to provide a consistent nationwide framework for standardizing incident management practices and procedures. This ensures that Federal, State, and local governments can work effectively, efficiently, and cooperatively to prepare for, respond to, and recover from domestic incidents-regardless of cause, size, or complexity.

3. The Federal government has primary responsibility to prevent, preempt, and

terminate threats or acts of terrorism, and to apprehend and prosecute the perpetrators. Federal, State and local authorities will coordinate terrorism response and recovery efforts using the National Incident Management System (NIMS). The initial response to a terrorist incident is primarily a local law enforcement effort with the FBI assigned as the Lead Federal Agency (LFA) responsible for coordinating the Federal response. The FBI will assign a Special Agent or member of the Joint Terrorism Task Force in the role of liaison to coordinate with the incident commander or unified command in an incident command post. The initial response to a terrorist incident identifies, acquires, and


plans use of resources needed to anticipate, prevent, and/or resolve a threat or act of terrorism. Following the initial response to the terrorist incident, recovery efforts protect public health and safety, restore essential government services, and provide emergency relief to governments, businesses, and individuals affected by the terrorist incident. In a terrorist incident, FEMA is the lead Federal Agency responsible for the recovery phase.

4. Upon authorization by SEMA, the Homeland Security Response Team (HSRT)

will be able to respond to any terrorism incident that will occur in their region and will be funded/ supplied through State and Federal aid/grants. This includes the necessary equipment as well as the training to fulfill any need of the terrorist incident. See Appendix 1 for locations of HSRT.

5. Upon authorization by SEMA, the Forward Regional Response Team (FRRT)

will also be able to respond to terrorism incidents, but their resources will be less than those of an HSRT. They will also be funded/ supplied by State and Federal aid/grants. They will also provide support to the HSRT in terrorism incidents when needed.

C. Primary Objectives in Response to a Terrorist Act:

1. Protect the lives and safety of the citizens and first responders. 2. Isolate, contain, and/or limit the spread of any cyber, nuclear, biological,

chemical, incendiary, or explosive device.

3. Identify the type of agent or devices used. 4. Identify and establish control zones for suspected agent used. 5. Identify appropriate decontamination procedure and/or treatment. 6. Ensure that responders have appropriate equipment and personal protective

equipment (PPE).

A. Organization:

A response organization for a terrorism incident will be under the Direction and Control of the County Commissioners or a designated representative. The response will be conducted from the EOC. The primary responders for terrorism normally lie with local law enforcements, fire, and County Health and Medical. All other departments are considered to be support. Each jurisdiction should prepare an SOG and functional checklist for response to a terrorism incident as defined in the Basic Plan (P&S Chart). All participating agencies must comply with training requirements set-forth by SEMA. In addition, an up-to-date list of emergency response personnel will be maintained and available. The following provides a breakdown by functional areas:

1. The Federal Government is responsible to determine the Nation’s threat level. See Appendix 2 to Annex N for HOMELAND SECURITY TERRORIST WARNING SYSTEM CHART. However, it is up to the local jurisdiction to determine their appropriate threat level based upon their current situation.


EOC Function: (See Basic Plan and appropriate Annex’s for additional Information).


2. If notification of a terrorist incident is received, the Emergency Management

Director/Coordinator will immediately contact the chief elected official and primary and support agencies as identified in the P & S Charts.

3. If notification of an incident is received by other than the Emergency Management Office, the individual receiving the notification will contact the Emergency Management Office and/or the chief elected official immediately.

4. The Warren County Emergency Management Office is responsible to contact SEMA Staff Duty Officer and inform them of their current situation and threat. Other local departments will follow their respective SOGs for notifications.

5. Activate the EOC at either the primary or alternate location. The EOC serves as the clearing house for local jurisdiction to collect, discuss, and disseminate information in regard to a particular event occurring within their jurisdiction. The EOC is responsible to maintain contact with appropriate State and Federal Agencies throughout the incident period.

6. Review EOP and determine if predestinated staging areas, mobilizations and reception centers are far enough away from the actual scene so that safety is guaranteed.

7. If necessary, a Joint Operation Center (JOC) will be established by the Lead Federal Agency (LFA) and will be under the operational control of the Federal On Scene Commander (OSC). The JOC is the focal point and is responsible for coordinating requests from the State. The On-Scene Commander may request that a representative from the Warren County be assigned to the JOC.

C. Emergency Management:

1. Direction and Control will originate from the EOC.

3. The EOC will be staffed in accordance with the Basic Plan.

4. Coordinate with SEMA and other Federal, State or Local Agency’s EOCs as necessary.

5. Prepare and distribute Situations Reports (SITREPS).

6. Coordinate response and recovery operations.

7. Identify and coordinate resource requirements.

2. Ensure the alternate EOCs are operationally ready in the event that the primary

EOC is not available.

1. Manage the incident scene. Set-up IMS to manage/coordinate with other departments and agencies using the Unified Command System.

2. Respond to requests for support/assistance from other departments; local, State,

and Federal. 3. Provide security, maintain order, prevent unauthorized entry, control and re-route

traffic and maintain open access/egress for authorized vehicles into the terrorist incident scene.

4. Assist in evacuation/in-place protection notification of the affected area as

requested by the EOC or the On-Scene Incident Commander. 5. Develop and maintain internal guidelines of duties, roles and responsibilities for

any terrorism incidents involving Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosion (CBRNE).

6. Ensure Scene Security and evidence preservation pending arrival of the FBI, and

assist the FBI and other investigative authorities in determining responsibility.

7. Establish access control into and out of the crime scene. 8. Provide security for Command Post and EOC. 9. Manage crowd control when necessary.

E. Fire Department:

1. Respond to all reports of terrorist incidents to determine the nature and scope of the incident.

2. Provide a representative to the EOC and coordinate with Warren County and municipal law enforcement, as well as other agencies for support and resource requirements.

3. Establish site security areas and hazard exclusion zones in accordance with

established procedures and guidelines. 4. Determine the nature of the incident. 5. Provide information on hazardous material/evaluation and environmental damage

assessment. 6. Develop and maintain internal guidelines to identify specific roles and

responsibilities of fire service personnel in each of the major terrorism incidents involving CBRNE.


7. Keep the EOC informed.

F. Health Department:

1. Provide personnel safety information to the EOC.

2. Provide an environmental analysis, with help from the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (MDHSS) and the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention. Coordinate with County Health Director on all health issues. The County Health Director is responsible to determine the health risk, and recommend epidemiological and toxicological solutions to deal with public health issues involved in a terrorist incident.

3. The MDHSS and the FBI have signed a memorandum of understanding (dated October 28, 1999) for analyzing suspected chemical or biological agents. In this agreement, should MDHSS suspect one of these agents, they can use the fastest law enforcement means to transport this agent to the MDHSS lab in Jefferson City, while maintaining the “chain of custody,” should it become evidence.

4. Monitor response personnel and general public exposure to chemical, biological, and radiological agents.

5. Monitor and track potential victims.

6. Provide information regarding exposure and treatment to potential victims and workers.

7. The County Health and Medical Director or a designated representative will assist

the PIO on Health and Medical issues and in broadcasts concerning public and individual health issues.

8. Keep the EOC informed.

G. Public Works:

1. Respond to emergency requests from the EOC by providing trucks, earth moving

equipment and other needed assets/materials along with operators to reduce hazards, minimizing secondary damage.

2. Provide barricades to assist in evacuation and/or scene security. 3. Assist in providing temporary storage of equipment and materials until

appropriate locations can be located. 4. Coordinate with the EOC and the On-Scene Commander to insure the area is safe

to enter. Do not enter any area if it has not been cleared and declared safe for reentry.

1. The Chief of Emergency Medical Service (EMS) is primarily responsible for

directing the medical response and on-scene operation within the impacted area. The EMS is responsible for identifying and anticipating resource requirements and allocates resources accordingly.

2. EMS coordinates mutual aid in conjunction with the County Health Officer.

I. PIO (Public Information Officer)

1. Warren County will follow established guideline as outlined in the Basic Plan and Annex C.

2. An exception to those guidelines could be made depending on the severity and current situation.


A. Initial response operations are the responsibility of the local jurisdiction. The FBI is the Lead Federal Agency for all terrorist attacks and will establish a Joint Operation Center (JOC) for Direction and Control if one is needed. The Missouri Highway Patrol (MSHP) has primary responsibility for coordinating the State level response with the FBI.

B. Local Public Information Operations will be coordinated from the EOC. NOTE:

FEMA/FBI may establish a Joint Information Center (JIC). C. Response and Recovery operations are the responsibility of the local jurisdiction. When

making a formal request to SEMA for assistance, the local jurisdiction must have exhausted its capabilities and resources.


A. Line of Succession For Terrorism:

1. Warren County Line of Succession for terrorism are:

a. County Commissioners.

HOMELAND SECURITY RESPONSE TEAMS



HOMELAND SECURITY ADVISORY SYSTEM Because of the potential for future terrorist-related incidents, a national security alert system was developed to disseminate information regarding the risk of terrorist acts to Federal, State, and local governments and to the American people. This system, known as the Homeland Security Advisory System (HSAS), is based on five color-coded threat conditions, which are summarized in the bellow table.

HOMELAND SECURITY ADVISORY SYSTEM COLOR CODES

RED: Signifies severe risk of attack and may require the pre-positioning of especially trained teams, closing public and government facilities and monitoring transportation systems. ORANGE: Signifies a high risk of attack, meaning the government should coordinate necessary security efforts with armed forces or law enforcement agencies and take additional precautions at public events. YELLOW: Signifies an elevated condition meaning there is a significant risk of attack. Increased surveillance of critical locations and implementing some emergency response plans are called for BLUE: Signifies a general risk, and agencies are asked to review and update emergency response procedures GREEN: Signifies a low risk of terrorist attack.

NOTE: The County Commissioners will determine the appropriate Threat Level based on the current situation and recommendations from SEMA.

Warren County EOP N- 16 JAN 2004


HOMELAND SECURITY RESPONSE TEAMS AND

FORWARD REGIONAL RESPONSE TEAMS A. Homeland Security and Forward Regional Response Teams (HSRT and FRRT) were developed

and trained locally. SEMA is the coordinating agency for the Department of Justice Equipment Program, which provides grant funds to the State to purchase protective equipment, decontamination equipment, detection equipment and communications equipment for designated Fire / HAZMAT, EMS and Law Enforcement agencies statewide. The program is designed to assist communities’ development of a local WMD response capability identified in the three-year Statewide Domestic Preparedness Strategy. Participation in the program is based upon several criteria including existing HAZMAT team capability, desire and willingness to participate. The state currently has 28 teams. Any future expansion will be based upon the results of the statewide Homeland Security Assessment and Strategy Program.

B. The HSRT is a more robust team, which generally enjoys some capabilities beyond what would

normally be found in a FRRT. For example, some of our HSRTs have an urban search and rescue capability and will, in most cases, have been involved in the grant program for a longer period of time than a typical FRRT. HSRTs typically have a more sophisticated detection capability and greater decontamination capacity than a FRRT (see Attachment 1). Of the 28 total HSRTs and FRRTs in the state, the vast majority are HSRTs, see map in Appendix 1.

C. HSRTs and FRRTs are designed to operate on a regional basis and the aim is to have at least one

team no more than 50 miles from any location in the state. Teams will be directed to respond to a terrorist or suspected terrorist incident by SEMA and the cost of deploying the team or teams will be absorbed by the state, provided the Governor declares a state of emergency. All of these teams are also capable of responding to a Hazardous Material or HAZMAT incident through the fire mutual aid provisions of Revised Missouri Statutes, Chapter 44. In the event that a HAZMAT response is provided as described above, the funding support would be in accordance with existing mutual aid agreements.

D. Training levels, equipment and technology are constantly being improved to add an even more

robust capability to respond to a terrorist incident or accident involving hazardous materials. Additional information regarding availability of training, status or management of grants, general equipment lists common to all teams is available through the Operations Branch of SEMA or through the SEMA web page.


Attachment A to Appendix 3 to Annex N

HSRT & FRRT TEAM STRUCTURE HSRT - Trained and equipped, fully capable HAZMAT Team recognized by the State Fire Marshal’s office for day-to-day HAZMAT operations and includes:

12 HAZMAT Personnel 12 Emergency Medical Service Personnel 20 Law Enforcement Personnel

The grant program managed by SEMA provided an expanded capability to respond to a WMD event.

FRRT - Team has a core of at least 6 HAZMAT technicians that can respond locally (within a 50 mile radius) or as tasked by the State and includes at least:

8 Emergency Medical Service Personnel

The FRRT is trained and equipped to respond and identify the problem, contain the event and await further support. They do not

6 HAZMAT Personnel

10 Law Enforcement Personnel

have a day-to-day- HAZMAT response capability.
