  • Municipal departments maintain response plans
    that coincide with the EOC Plan.

10
NIMS
  • NIMS is a flexible framework of doctrines,
    concepts, principles, terminology, and
    organizational processes that is applicable to
    all hazards and jurisdictions
  • The structure is based on three organizational
    constructs ICS, MACS, and Public Information.

11
Multi-Agency Coordination System

    management components, and organizational
    structure of supporting incident management
    entities engaged through mutual-aid agreements
    and other predetermined assistance arrangements.

12
Incident Command System
  • The Incident Command System (ICS) defines the
    characteristics and structure of incident
    management throughout the life cycle of an
    incident.
