Agenda 06/24/2008 Item #16F 3 Agenda Item No. 16F3 June 24, 2008 Page 1 of 4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to adopt the Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan for Collier County and its municipalities. OBJECTIVE: To adopt the attached Resolution approving the Collier County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) for Collier County. CONSIDERATIONS: Chapter 252, Florida Statutes requires that the County prepare this plan. Although it is updated annually locally, the Florida Department of Community Affairs, Division of Emergency Management ("State") reviews and approves it every four years. The State has approved the CEMP, finding it in compliance with Florida Administrative Code. Staff from all the Collier County Divisions, Everglades City, the City of Marco Island, the City of Naples, the Collier County Sheriff's Office, the Schools, and the Fire Districts have had opportunities to participate in the re-write throughout the process. Additionally, the draft plan has been posted on the Emergency Management web site since January 2008, along with the current plan, for comment. r-- The CEMP represents the fruits 0 f our labor during the past 48 months. In addition to obtaining approval from the three municipalities, we have sought input from private non-profit organizations who partner with the emergency response organizations during disasters. Having an approved CEMP enables all participating jurisdictions to have a standard to respond to disaster situations that complements the State's CEMP. Due to the volume of the CEMP, a copy of the plan is available for review at the Clerk of Courts Recording Office, Office located on the 4th Floor of Building F, at the Government Center, 3301 E. Tamiami Trail, Naples. Once the Resolution is approved, a copy of the adopted CEMP will be submitted to the State. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this Executive Summary. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: Rule 9G-6.006, F.AC. requires that the State approved CEMP be adopted by resolution of the Board of County Commissioners. The proposed Resolution has been approved for form and legal sufficiency by the Office of the County Attorney. - JAB GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with this Executive Summary. RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners approve the attached resolution adopting the Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan for Collier County. r- SUBMITTED BY: Richard A.

INTRODUCTION The Collier County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) is designed to address all threats to which the County and its population may be exposed. At the present time, six types of major threats have been identified, as well as twenty-five additional threats for which the County must be prepared. This plan is an outline of emergency situations and agency responsibilities, Each agency that is identified will be given a broad overview of their tasking. Primary and secondary agencies will be rcsponsible for developing Standard Operating Guides (SOGs) and/or checklists identifying when and how they will accomplish their taskings. A, Purpose I. The CEMP establishes the framework through which Collier County may prevent or mitigate the impacts of, prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural, man made, and technological hazards that could adversely affect the health, safety and gencral welfare of residents and visitors to this County. Appendices to the Basic Plan address describe the general emergency support functions which are used to resolve problems posed by a disaster and other matters that provide details to the Basic Plan. The Annexcs address unique hazards whereby we were either better able to effectively and efficiently deliberately plan for the hazard event or the hazard presents unique requirements that deviates from the Basic Plan which is clarified by the Annex. 2. Through this CEMP, provisions are made for the nceded flexibility of direction, coordination, and methods of operations to enable County, City, and non- governmental agencies to accomplish the objectives of mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. This plan provides the framework for rendering support to other counties, state and fedcral government in their emergency preparedness efforts. 3. This CEMP, by adoption, establishes the National Incident Management System (NIMS) as the standard for all operations encompassed by the plan within Collier County. The NlMS system encompasses much more than the Incident Command System (ICS), although ICS is a critical component of the NIMS. It also provides a common foundation for training and other preparedness efforts, communicating and sharing information with other responders and with the public, ordering resources to assist with a response effort, and for integrating new technologies and standards to support incident management. For the first time, all ofthe nation's emergency responders will use a common language, and a Basic - 1 Collier County Comorehensiye Emergency Manae.ement Plan 200S r~rn June 24. 2008 \Cdj common set of procedures when working individually and together to keep America safe. The NIMS ensures that they will have the same preparation, the same goals and expectations, and most importantly, they will be speaking the same languagc. B. Scope of the Collier County CEMP: I. The "Basic Plan" is sufficient to provide an "all hazards" response template for most emergencies. Hazard specific annexes were developed for unique emergencies such as wildland fire responses, terrorism and severe weather. 2. The "Basic Plan" and the annexes identify roles, responsibilities, relationships, direction and control measures and protocols for a variety of hazard event rcsponses betwecn local, State and Federal agencies. Generally a unified command is established to manage the emergency response. 3. This "Plan" details actions necessary for short term and long term recovery and mitigation efforts following a disaster. The EOC serves as the initial forum to coordinate Recovery activities. Once Recovery activities are focused on a specific function, e.g., debris management, long-term recovery will best be managed by the department directly, Mitigation measures are addressed through thc county's Local Mitigation Strategy meetings and through rcbuilding initiatives associated with damaged facilities. C. Methodology I. The Collier CEMP was produced by the team efforts of the entire Collier County Emergency Management staff, the lead and support agencies for each of the eighteen Emergency Support Functions, and personnel involved in Recovery and Mitigation activities. Additionally, following each major disaster response and exercise response, all responding agencies are asked to participate in a critique and an after-action report is completed and plan improvements are made to the plan whcre appropriate. Thc Emergency Managemcnt Director or his/her representative is responsible for the development and maintenance of the CEMP including coordinating revisions, publishing changes and/or disseminating the CEMP. 2. Guidancc documents include the following: the National Response Framework, Florida Statute Chapter 252 and the Robert T, Stafford Act. 3. Maintenance of plan currency is achieved in thc following manner: a. Basic Plan will be reviewed by Emergency Management staff by April 15, each year and after each plan implementation due to a threat of or actual disaster. Changes to the Basic Plan to the CEMP will go beforc thc Board of County Commissioners for adoption. b, Emergency Support Function (ESF) appendices will be revicwed by the Lead Agency for the ESF in consultation with the support agencies. Corrections will bc forwarded to Emergency Managcmcnt who will distribute page changes to all recipients of the plan. Changes to the ESF Basic - 2 :IiernlW-3 Collier County Comorchensive Emef!!encY Manal!emcnt Plan 2008 June 24 2008 appendices do not need Board of County Commissioner approval as long as the spirit and intent of the Basic Plan has not changed, c. Hazard Specific Annexes will be developed as needed and reviewed at least annually and immediately after the disaster event for which the annex was written. The Annex will be initiated & maintained by the lead agency for that annex. Hazard specific annexcs can be developed and added to/removed from the Collier County CEMP, as needed, without Board of County Commissioner approval as long as the spirit and intent of the Basic Plan has not changed. d. Standard Operating Guides (SOGs) should be developed and maintained by each tasked agency to support this plan. c. The master CEMP document is maintained electronically in the Emergency Management virtual library on the web (http://www.colliergov.net/lndex,aspx?page=1537). A paper version of the current plan is available in the County Manager's Office for review, f. A CEMP notification list is maintained in Appendix 4 to the Basic Plan and updated as required by the Collier County Office of Emergency Management. g, Collier County Emergency Management maintains a Revision Log. Revisions will bc noted on the web page when they are approved, h. Thc Revision Log will reflect both the date and number of the revision, as well as, a brief description of the content. A copy of this log will be found in Appendix 5 to the Basic Plan. 1. Along with the issuance of a revision, a list of affected pages will be issued. This is to be included in the affected page index in the rear of the CEMP. .I, All Collier County documents incorporated by reference that refer to two municipalities are understood to reflect the inclusion of a third municipality, Marco Island. II. SITUATION Because of the existing and continuing possibility of the occurrence of large-scale natural or technological disasters or emergencies within Collier County, the County must be adequately prepared to deal with, reduce vulnerability to, and recover from such emergencies or disasters. The emergency management functions, within the County, must be coordinated with other local governmental and non-governmental agencies and the State Division of Emergency Management to ensurc the most effective preparation and use of manpower, resources, and facilities.

Historically, employment within the County has been scasonal and largely attributable to a pleasant sub-tropical climate during thc winter months, creating a seasonal-based tourist cconomy.

Planning Assumptions I. A disaster may occur with little or no warning, and may escalate more rapidly than the ability of any singlc local response organization or jurisdiction can manage. 2. Achieving and maintaining cffective citizen and community preparedness reduces thc immediate demands on response organizations. This level of preparcdness requircs continual public awareness and education programs to ensurc citizens will takc appropriate advancc actions to reduce their vulnerability especially during the initial days (72 hours) after disaster impact. 3, Local municipalities will use local resources and coordinate with the county Emergency Management office for additional resources. 4. Evacuation and sheltering will be coordinated with the Board of County Commissioners, the Health Department and Collier County School Board; and, rely upon regional coordination for thc best available shelter operations. 5. If Collier County is requested to provide "host evacuation sheltering", the Governor, through the State Emergency Operations Center, will issue instructions/mission to the local government. 6. Local emergency management agencies will initiate actions toward saving lives and protccting property while working to maintain direction and control through their emergency operation centers. 7. The State Emergency Operations Center will be activated and staffed by the State Emergency Response Team to support local operations. 8. When Statc resources and capabilities are exhausted, additional resources will be requcsted through intcrstate mutual aid agreements and federal assistance. 9, Planning at thc county and State levels will be based on pre- identification of populations and determination of resource shortfalls and contingencies. Persons needing special care will contact Collier County Emergency Management Department for registration as people with special needs assistance. 10. Therc are two federally recognized Indian Tribes (the Seminole and the Miccosukee) within the State, with reservations, in Broward, Miami-Dade, Collier, Hendry, Glades, and Hillsborough counties, The State Emergency Response Team will provide assistance to thc Tribcs as requested while respecting the governmental sovereign nation status they hold in the United States as sovereign nations. Effective emcrgency management requires the cooperation, partnership, and mutua I consideration of neighboring governments, whether those governments are neighboring tribes, local governments, or the State. Accordingly, the Plan will cncourage early communication and partnership among the two Indian tribes, local governments, and the State in emergency management matters. Basic - 12 :T-fJn t{gf 3 Collier County Comorehensivc Emergency Management Plan 200R June 24 2008 II. Each State agency and volunteer organization will document and seek reimbursemcnt, as appropriate, for expenses incurred during disaster operations. III. RESPONSIBILITIES Government officials at all levels share responsibility for the planning necessary to minimize losses and provide relief from natural disasters. Figure 6, Roles & Responsibilities Overview, specifies government agency responsibilities (primary or support) in the following categories: increased readiness, local state of emergency, warning, evacuation, shelter, records preservation, damage assessment for Individual & Household Assistance, damage assessment for Public Assistance, temporary housing, disaster recovery centers, infrastructure, environmental protection, hazard mitigation, training and education, exerciscs, and financial.

Direct and control response to the majority of incidents/emergencies in accordance with the statutes and ordinances of the State of Florida and Collier Basic - 16 :r-tm I (of 3 Collier County Cornofchensive Emcreenev Manaucmenl Plan 2008 June 24. 2UOg County and mutual aid agreements with adjacent political subdivisions, special districts and volunteer organizations. 2. Provide immediate response through local law enforcement, fire, emergency medical and public facilities that are located in the vicinity of the emergency. 3. Establish readincss guidelines that cnsure proper training, notification of personnel and the availability of necded personnel and equipment in time of emergency. 4. Request activation of mutual aid agreements when specific aid is required. 5. Request assistance from the state and federal governments through the State Division of Emergency Management when local government resources are committed and found to be inadequate to respond to the situation and/or when a particular capability is required and is not available locally. 6. Participate in federal and state efforts to accomplish post-disaster hazard mitigation plans and studies as required by federal regulations when federal grants and loans are made available to the jurisdiction under a Presidential Disaster Declaration. 7. Coordinate post environmental remediation activities. B. Coordination with the State I. All local response and recovery efforts (resources and requests for assistance) will be coordinatcd, To this end, the following direct communications are established: between coordinating offices in respective state and local EOCs, and between ESFs in the respectivc state and local EOCs, 2. All requests for out-of-county assistance must be coordinated through the Collier County EOC. At the request of Collier County govcrnment, and contingent upon availablc state staff, the Division of Emergency Management will send liaison officcrs to Collier County to coordinate requests for state assistance. For Hurricane/Severe Storm operations, under the Time Delineation Schedule, these actions commence during the preparation phase (Hurricane Watch). C. Coordination with Federal Government During thc Hurricane Warning Phase of the Time Delineation Schedule, post-storm rcsponse activities begin. Among them arc coordination of preliminary damage assessment, disaster recovery centers, temporary housing, public assistance, and Presidential Declaration. Thcse activities continuc through all phases thereafter. D. Communications The primary communications system between all levels of government is the telephone and/or facsimile systems. If the primary system fails, cellular phones will be made available in the EOC. The EOC is equipped with a satellite phone/radio as well as a portable "bag satellite phone" available for dispatch; there is also an additional satellite Basic - 17 Collier County Comnrl:hensive Emcn!cncv Manal!emcnt Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 :r,.Jc.m llPf2 phone/radio in the Multi-Agency Communication & Coordination Vehicle (MAC-V). Collier Emergency Radio Association (CERA) radio operators are also available in the County EOC. E. Plan Revisions Collier County Emergency Management will maintain responsibility for plan revisions in accordance with Section I., paragraph C. 3, "Maintenance of plan currency...." F. Roles/Rcsponsibilities: Rccovery and Mitigation In addition to thc activities outlined in Section IV, paragraph F.6, the Disaster Recovery Task Force will address: . Community recovery planning; . Building and construction issues; . Public and private linancing; . Recovery management/information systems; . Public information citizen outreach; . Residential housing issucs/concerns; . Business issues/concerns; . Environmental and ecological issues/concerns; . Development and implementation of a redevelopment plan for hazard prone areas; and . Implementation of an acquisition program to acquire storm damaged property in hazard prone areas. G. Tasking Coordination Taskings for events at FULL activation levcl will be coordinated through the lead of each Emergency Support Function. At MONITORING and PARTIAL Activation levels all taskings shall be coordinatcd through the Emergency Operations Center. IV. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS This plan is based on the principle that the County bears thc initial responsibility for disaster preparedness responsc, recovery and mitigation. As a corollary to this principle, each level within local government wi II accomplish the functions for which it is responsible, requesting relief from the next higher level of governmcnt only after resources at that level are inadequate to respond to thc cmergency. Requests for statc assistance will usually be initiated only after a State of Local Emcrgency has been declared.

Coordination, Direction & Control I. EOC Role and Activation Conditions: The EOC may be activated as either as "Command" entity or as a "Support" entity. For an event using many resources of one jurisdiction, thc EOC may scrve as a single command elemcnt for the operation, Where incidents occur across political jurisdictions or there is morc than one responding agency with incident jurisdiction, the EOC is activated as a "command" entity, usually using a "Unified Command" element to direct operations. As a unified command, the EOC will serve as the "Area Command". In its "Support" role it acts as a Multi-Agency Coordination Center. It supports incident management policies and priorities cstablished by the on-scene command element, e.g., wildfire operations. a.

Direction and Control (I) Activation and Managemcnt of EOC The Emergency Operations Center will be activated and staffed depending on the level of disaster that is occurring. The need to activate the EOC will be determined by thc Emergency Management Director, the County Manager or their designated representatives. The level of activation will be determined at this timc. For the affected municipalities, a liaison will be requested to report to the County EOC. The Collier County Multi-Agency Coordination and Communication Vehicle (MACC-V) is available for deployment to provide on-scene support to the Incident Commander for all incidents within Collier County including municipalities. Thc County Manager, or in his absence the Deputy County Manager, will advise of activation and take charge, The Policy/Multi-Agency Coordination Group, consisting of the Board of County Commissioners and/or affected jurisdictional leaders, will furnish authority to takc action. The Operations Group will advise and furnish manpower and facilities for opcration. The Operations group will consist of: . County Manager (Group Chief) . Deputy County Manager . Sheriff's Office Representative . Transportation Services Administrator . Administrative Services Administrator . Public Utilities Administrator . Cmty. Dev. & Environmental Svs. Administrator . Public Services Administrator . Health Department Director . Emergency Management Director . Red Cross Representative . Public Information Officcr . Fire Services Representativc .

(k) The Messaging System SOG (4) ESF Standard Operating Guides and Checklists The responsibility to develop and maintain SOGs and checklists rests with thc lead agency of each ESF. (5) Transition between Response and Recovery Initially after the disaster threat passes, first responders will be performing life saving activities and mending critical lines of communication. The Incident Commander, in the EOC will manage both response and initial recovery activities until the environment stabilizes so that longer ternl recovery activities can bc managed outside the EOC by the agencies responsible for those activities. Consistent with the Time Delineation Schedules, recovery actions begin during the response phase (evacuation) with the coordination of post-storm response planning activities. Recovery actions continue thcreafter. (6) Mutual Aid and Memoranda of Understanding Mutual aid agreements with other political subdivisions will be consistent with this plan. It is the duty of the parties to mutual aid agreements to render assistance in accordance with the agrcements. Authority to enter into mutual aid agreements is contained in Article III, of Chapter 38 of the Collier County Code of Laws and Ordinances for Civil Emergencies. Mutual aid agreements arc signed legal agreements between governing bodies for reciprocal assistance in emergencies under the terms of the agreement, They become effective when signed by the responsible officials having authority in each political subdivision and will remain in effect until terminated by the affected parties. Lead Emergency Support Function agencies are encouraged to develop Mutual Aid and/or Memoranda of Understanding agreements to facilitate efficient operations to their functions to support taskings within this CEMP. Mutual aid agreements address the following: Basic - 33 'I -kJY\ lc0f 3 Collier County Comorehensivc Emer2enCY Manae:ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 . Notification guidelines; immunity from liability, waiver of claims, and indemnifications from third party claims; . Compensation considerations; direction and control of persons and units rendering assistance; . Any other provisions or guidelincs necessary for the expeditious and efficient rendering of aid; and . Procedures through which the agreement may be terminated D, Preparedness I. Training Traincd, knowledgeable personnel are essential to successful preparation and implementation of disaster plans. Individuals/agencies with assigned tasks under this plan rcceive appropriate training and participate in plan drills and exercises, a, Responsibility Thc Collier County Emergency Management Director is responsible for thc coordination of disaster related training and exercising within the County. The Emergency Management Director will make local training requirements known to thc Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) Regional Coordinator.

Exercises The Emcrgency Management Director schedules at least one disaster exercise each year. This includes, but is not limited to, all agencics with emergency response capability. (See Figure 6, Rolcs & Responsibilities Overview) Basic - 37 :T~m l~3 Collier County Comorchcn~ive Emenwncy Manallemcnt Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 a. Agency Participation Collier Emergency Radio Association (CERA) and Amateur Radio Association of Southwcst Florida (ARASWF) schedule one technical meeting per month. Tests of the communications net are conducted wcckly. Hospitals and nursing homes are required to schedule two disaster related drills per ycar to maintain their accreditation. Training for Naples and Collier Airport Authorities are scheduled to mcct Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) requirements. Training for primary responders is held several times per year. When drills or exercises are conducted, only those agencies with a rcsponse requirement are included. For examplc, a full-scale hurricane cxcrcise would includc all agencies listed in Figure 6, Roles and Responsibilities Overview. A hazardous materials drill, however, would involve only thc agcncies that would respond in an actual event (e.g., Sheriffs Office, Fire District, EMS, pollution control, utility department, road department, and cmergency management). b. Inter-Agency Exerciscs lntcragency training and exercises are conducted as often as practicable, especially when major changes are made to the Collier County CEMP. At a minimum, Collier County participates in the State's annual hurricane exerCIse. c. Exercise Schedule In the springtime of each year, an in-house technical exercise involving all Emergency Support Functions is held. This exercise is scheduled just prior to hurricane season. This cntails having all communications in placc for both radio and television broadcasts from the EOC, In addition, Collier County participatcs in the annual statewide hurricane exercise.

Prior to requesting state assistance, the current situation must be identified, the current and projectcd resource needs must be assessed, and a time frame indicating how long the Statc resources would be needed must bc identified. This should be done as early as possible in order for the Statc to allocate resourccs. When local and state resources are determined to be inadequate, the Governor will request assistancc through the Federal Emergency Managemcnt Agency (FEMA) channels. This request will be based on local and state damage asscssments and expenditure reports that are to be maintained and supplied by the County for each disaster related activity. f. All County personnel are encouraged to dcvelop personal disaster plans, which include safe havcn for family members and established points of contact if sheltering is outside the area. g. Rapid Impact Assessment Teams (RIA T) and Regional Response Teams (RRT) are State controlled assets to be deployed into an impacted area, The Standard Opcrating Guide for RIA T support defines the roles and responsibilities of local RIA T tcam members to assist the State and FLNG personnel in conducting a joint impact assessment. Primary and secondary landing zones have been established to receive state personnel. (See Figure 5, Emcrgency Management Support Facilities.) 2. Notifications and Warning Guidelines for warning rcquire timely Collier Emergency Information Hotline (CElH) dissemination to two audiences: public officials/organizations, and the gcneral public. a, Receipt of Warnings Twenty-four hour Warning Point: The local warning point during normal business hours (Monday - Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.) is in the primary Emcrgcncy Operations Center. During non-business hours the warning point is located in the Collier County Sheriffs Communication Office (staffed around the clock) located on the second floor ofthe County Sheriffs OfficelJail. Both offices have: adequate communications capabilities to receive warning information from all relevant sources; back-up power; and sufficient elevation to be safe trom flooding under Category 2 hurricanes or lower, or other hazards. Basic - 41 -:r-b'n llof 3 Collier County Comorehensive Emere:encv Manac:ement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 The alternate EOC is located at the County's South Water Treatment Plant, near the intersection of Collier Blvd & 1-75. It has adequate communications and back-up power. It has internet and is on the county's fiber network. Warnings may be received by the following means: ESA TCOM, Internet, the commercial weather satellite receiver, Facsimile and/or report from thc general public. (Note: Reports from the general public will be confirmcd prior to dissemination.) All computer systems in thc EOC have access to the Internet. b. Notification to Public Officials & Organizations The extent of notification and warning will be governed by the type and magnitude ofthe disaster event. Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) initial notifications will be made by their sponsoring Fire Departments. See Figure 16, Notification & Warning System.

(1) In County: During non-business hours, the Sheriffs Department wi 11 notify the Emergency Management director (or his rcprcsentative) of all warnings via digital pager or phone. Basic - 43 Collier County Comnrehensivc Emer2:encv Manal!cmcnt Plan 2008 ~ml0f3 June 24 2008 The Collier County Sheriffs Officc will notify the following agencies ovcr Emergency Control as indicated below: . Countywide Emergency: Sheriff, EMS, Naples Police and Emergency Services, Naples Fire Department, Fire, Districts, Marco Island Fire & Police departments, Division of Forestry. . Hazardous Spills/Major Transportation Accident: Fire Districts in whose area the event occurred, Sheriff/FHP, Police, EMS and Road Department (anywhere in Collier County) . Major Structure Fire: Appropriate fire district, police, EMS. . Forest Fire: Appropriate fire district, Division of Forestry, police, EMS. Thc Emergency Management Department will notify the following by phone or FAX as indicated below. . Countywide Emergency: School Administration, Naples Community Hospital, Cleveland Clinic, Red Cross Disaster Chair, Civil Air Patrol, Board of County Commissioners, The Departmcnt of Health, County Manager and all division administrators and department heads. Notification will also be made to the healthcare and visiting nurse focal points for further dissemination to their associations. . Hazardous Spills: State Warning Point, Department of Environmental Protection, and V,S. Coast Guard (for all incidents west and south of US 41) or the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (for all incidents east and north of US 41), Notification will also be made to Pollution Control Department (anywhere in Collier County), the Department of Health and Road Department, if so requested by thc Incident Commander. The Emergency Management Director will coordinate activities with the Cities of Marco Island, Naples, Everglades City and adjacent countics if conditions so warrant. All warnings passed to primary responders over Emergency Control arc recorded. The Emergency Management Director (or representative) will log date, time and addressee of all messages disseminated. Basic - 44 ~ 1<t:f3 Collier County Comorehensivc Emerl!encv Manae:ement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 (2) Out-of-County: Collier County Emergency Management will coordinate with neighboring counties via ESA TCOM, Suncom, or telephone. c. Notification to the General Public The Emergency Management Director (or representative) has the responsibility for disseminating warnings to the general public via facsimile to various public safety agencies, other jurisdictions, media, hotels/motels and nursing/health facilities. All warnings affecting Collier County will be disseminated to local media and public safety agencies upon receipt of "hard copy," An attempt will be made to transmit bulletins to other governmental and non-governmental agencies if timc and resources pcrmit. (I) Primary and Back-Up Warning Systems - Warnings will be transmitted to WGCU 90.1 FM, & COM CAST Cablevision, who will provide the information to customers. Television customers will see the warning as a "crawl" at the bottom of the TV screen. The Weather Channel (Channel 25) routinely transmits all warnings for this area upon receipt. Collier County Emergency Management may also request, under specific circumstances, that emergency action statements be transmitted by the Weather Channel as a public service. National Weather Service Forecast Office in Miami will activate thc Emergency Alerting System (EAS) upon request of the EOC. Various firc and law enforcement departments will accomplish door to door checks for areas that are in peri I from hazardous spills or fires. Checks will be gencrally based on the severity of the evenl regardless of time of day or day of week, (2) Public Emergency Notification - The type of disaster threatening the area will govern the extent of warning. For example, a severe weather warning, marine warning, or hazardous spill would be less extensive than that for a hurricane warning. (3) Warning Hearing Impaired, Visually Impaired and Non-English Speaking Populations - Warnings to the General Public are available via television and radio (AM and FM) in English, Spanish and Creole translations. The Collier County Sheriffs Office and the Communication and Customer Relations Department have TOO equipment for providing information to the hearing impaired, As noted above, FAX notification will bc made to hotels/motels in the area so they may warn thc visiting public. Basic - 45 Collier County Comorehensiyc Emere:ency Management Plan 2008 ~ lloT3 June 24. 2008 3. Evacuation Evacuation zones and clearance times: Because of the unique threat posed by each tropical cyclone, there are no static cvacuation zones. Thc storm surgc map is a planning tool used to identify vulnerability to the watcr threat by a certain level of tropical cyclone intcnsity and not an evacuation zonc map. The Emcrgency Managcment Director makes his evacuation zone rccommendations to the Board of County Commissioners to act upon. During tropical storm or hurricanc events, all cvacuation mcasures must be takcn before the arrival of sustained tropical storm force winds, (i.e., greater than 45 miles pcr hour). Aftcr that timc power Iincs, trces, etc. will start falling. All public safety personncl in thc atTected arca of tropical storm force winds will scek sheltero a, Primary and Sccondary Evacuation Routes - The primary evacuation routes out of the county are 1-75 and US-4l north and eastbound, CR 846 (Immokalee Road) and SR 29. The normal flow of traffic, under most circumstances, will not be changed if the decision to evacuate is issued with sufficient time, Using thc Public Transportation Svstem: At the time that either a voluntary or mandatory evacuation is madc, Collier Area Transit (CAT) and Collicr County District Schools bus tleet will be used to help facilitatc thc general population evacuation. The evacuation buses will follow the normal CAT routes (depictcd on the map below) and deposit passengers at the Transfer Station to be shuttled to a designated shelter. Per spccial arrangements with thc hotels and with the firc departments in Ochopee and lmmokalee, additional exprcss bus services will be provided for the servicc industry workers who livc in Immokalee and for thc communitics around Immokalee and the communities near the intersection of US-4 I and SR-29, including Everglades City. Evacuation bus services will cease with the arrival of the anticipated sustained winds of 30 miles pcr hour. When the weathcr conditions are safe after thc dcparture of the storm, those shuttled to a sheltcr will be returned to the Transfer Station or community from which they came.

Registration and Evacuation of People with Special Needs - The County maintains a registry of individuals who have special transportation and/or sheltering needs. The County's "Special Needs Shelter SOO" serves as guidance for the transportation and sheltering of special populations. Special Needs population evacuations get precedence using the Collier County Public School District bus fleet assets. c. The Collier County Emergency Management Department maintains a listing of mobile home parks and marinas. The most recent listings are updated in July of each year and are incorporated into this plan by reference (as are future updates). Mobile home park and marina listings are maintaincd in the Directors oftlce. These listings will be reviewed and updated prior to July I of each year. d. Collier County has ncither draw nor swing bridges. e. Re-entry: The incident commander or executive group, depending on the incident, will permit re-entry into an arca according to the following guidelines: (I) No damages reported: Upon cancellation of all warnings and watches which include Collier County, and when no damage has been reported, re-entry will be authorized. (2) Substantial damages and/or injuries: After a countywide state of emergency which has resulted in substantial injury or harm to the population or substantial damage or loss of property, the cvacuation order within those areas of Collier County that previously existed will bc rescinded to the degree appropriate. An ordcrly return may be implemented in accordance with the levels and in order of priority as established below: . Level One: Search and rescue teams operating under ESE 9, fire personnel operating under ESE 4, law enforcement personnel operating under ESF J 6, transportation crews opcrating undcr ESF I, utilities personnel operating under ESF-3, and Health under ESF-8. . Level Two: Damage assessment teams and elected officials dispatched under Rapid Impact Assessment, Rapid Response, ESF-8, and Recovery operations for the purpose of making preliminary determinations related to accessibility and safety hazards in the evacuated area(s). . Level Three: Clean-up teams, operating under ESFs listed above for the purpose of clearing and repairing Basic - 49 :C~ ICof'3 Collier County Comorchcnsive Emerl!encv Mallal!emcnt Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 roads, restoring utilities, and eliminating safety hazards to the degree necessary to allow re-entry to the evacuated area. . Level Four: Individuals who possess and exhibit appropriate residency documentation shall be determined "priority class parties." Priority Class parties will be given a reasonable time to return to their property (home or business) to survey damage and secure the property, Collier County has adopted a color-coded reentry sticker identification system in order to accelerate the reentry process once it has been determined that it is safe to do so. . Level Five: Complete accessibility shall be restored as soon as practicable. 4. Sheltering (Scc ESF 6) - a, Storm Surge Vulnerability Storm surge areas are assessed using the SLOSH models.

Recovery Basic - 51 Collier County ComDrehensivc Ememenc.y Mana~ement Plan 2008 :r:lecJh((of3 June 24. 2008 1. General Recovery Functions and Responsibilities The purpose of this component is to initiate activities necessary to ensure a successful recovery effort (e.g., condition monitoring, situation evaluation, identification of recovery center sites, recovery center managers, damage assessment teams, mitigation assessment teams, deployment of damage assessment teams, and mitigation assessment teams to identification of hazard mitigation issues, etc.). During the "Response Phase" a minor "Recovery" component will be contained within ESF-5, Planning & Intel Section, in order to project the requirements and needs after the "Response Phase". However, depending on the type disaster and damages received, the Operations Group may decide to activate a "Recovery Task Force". Regarding Municipalities, the city managers will identify their Recovery Manager. (Figurc 21, Recovery Operations Structure) In a Presidential disaster declaration there may be many affected agencies; each with a responsibility to apply for its own disaster assistance and manage its own project(s), Thercforc, ESF-5 will coordinate bringing all the eligible activities to meet with FEMA after a disaster in order to facilitatc each eligible applicant's ability to define their own project, grant and financial activities. As a minimum, the following agencies will be invited to participate in the FEMA Kick-Off meeting: Board of County Commissioners, Sheriff, Clerk of Courts, Property Appraiser, Tax Collector, City of Naples, City of Marco Island, Everglades City, United Way agencies, Collier Schools, and Naples Community Hospital. There will bc media announcemcnts of the meeting to invite any potential, but omitted, eligible applicants to the meeting. Recovery Task Force: A group composed of individuals that reflect broad-based represcntation of community interests. Chapter 38 ofthe Code of Laws [Civil Emergencies] specifies who is a member of this task force. The purpose ofthis group is to advise the BoCC on a wide range of post-disaster recovery, reconstruction and mitigation issues. Thc Deputy County Manager shall chair the Recovery Task Force, appoint the Recovery Manager for the Emergency Operations Center and invite additional membership based on the disaster, but at a minimum it shall consist of the following, or their representatives: . Liaisons from each of the Cities. . County Attorney . Community Development and Environmental Services Administrator . Public Utilitics Administrator . Public Services Administrator . Communications & Customer Relations Director . Sheriff . Transportation Administrator . Florida Power & Light . Lee County Electric Cooperative . Collier County Public Schools Superintendent . Collier County Property Appraiser . ChairIVice Chair of the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group Basic - 52 ~ l(of-3 Collier County Comnrehensive Emcn!ency Management Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 Recovery Manager: The Recovcry Manager is that individual charged by the Dcputy County Manager to oversee thc recovery efforts by insuring consistency with the policics of the Recovery Task Force. This individual is responsible for establishing the management system & structure (even facility) outside the Emergency Opcrations Center for sustained recovery operations as soon as possible atler thc disastcr event so that thc Emergency Operations Centcr can re- equip and be ready to mcct the next threat. Basic - 53 ::I-Icm ~ (pF~ Collier County Comorehensive EmerllenCy Manae:ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 The Collier County Timc Delineation Schedule (TDS) for hurricanes & storms can be uscd for recovery actions in other disaster events. It specifies recovery actions and thc responsible agencies/sections under the Immediate Emergency, Restoration and Reconstruction phases. See Figure 6, Roles & Responsibilities Overview, for the ESF's roles and responsibilities of the recovery functions (damage/impact assessment, Housing & Human Services, Infrastructure, and Mitigation) and agencies responsible for lead and support activities. The lead agency for each function is responsible for the dcvclopment of Standard Opcrating Guides. Article I (Post-Disaster Recovery) of Chapter 38 of the Code of Laws & Ordinances provides guidance for disaster recovery operations. This ordinance cstablishes the Disaster Recovery Task Force. Additionally, it: . Provides priorities for post-disaster redevelopment. . Providcs priorities for essential services and facility restoration. . Establishes policies for debris clearance and disposal. . Establishes policies for damages determination, county Buildback, building repair moratoria, building permitting, new development, cmergency permitting. etc. . Establishes policies on emergency repairs. . Establishes policies on cconomic redevelopment. . Establishes policies on acquiring damaged properties. Requests for federal disaster assistance will be predicated on the requirements outlined in the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Public Law 93-288). After local government conducts the initial damage assessmcnt and reports to the State Emergency Operations Center via the Collier County EOC, a joint local/State preliminary damage assessment may be scheduled that could include the Federal Emergency Management Agency. This damage assessment validates the local data and is the basis for requesting a Presidential Disaster Dcclaration. Other federal agencies that may participate in the assessment proccss includc the Small Business Administration and Natural Resource Conservation Service. This process is described in 44 CFR, Part 206, Subpart B - The Declaration Process and other federal and State policies and procedures. 2, Recovery Field Operations In the aftermath of a disaster, with or without a Presidential Declaration, the Collier County EOC may deploy several specialized recovery teams (personnel) and centers (facilities/activities) into the impacted area, Examples of some of these arc: Basic - 54 :r~vn l(of3 Collier County Comorehensive Emeruencv Management Plan 200H June 24. 2aOS a. Recovery Personnel (I) Damage/Impact Assessment Team - A team deployed to conduct asscssments of damages to public entities and individual homes and businesses. The assessment quantities the extent of the damage, the impact of the damages and is used to justify federal assistance. Community Developmcnt & Environmental Serviccs Division has the primary responsibility to field the initial impact teams and report rcsults to ESF-5, Planning & Intel. Unless otherwise coordinated, each Municipality will conduct their own assessment and rcport results to the Emergency Operations Center, ESF-5. Usually the assessments are of two types: Windshield and post-disaster habitability inspections. Windshield assessments are just as the name implies, teams rapidly determine the scope and severity of the damage area without leaving the roadway. Post-disaster habitability inspections are thosc in whieh trained or qualified engineers/inspectors determine the level of safe access to each damaged structure and records those measures that need to be taken beforc unlimited access is permitted. (2) Community Relations Team - A team that is deployed into the impactcd community to collect information as well as meet with the disaster-affectcd community(ies) and eligible individuals in receiving assistance. The primary function of this team is to identify and report un met human needs and to inform disaster victims of the disaster assistancc programs and registration process. The Emergency Managemcnt Human Needs Coordinator acts as our liaison to the FEMA/State Community Relations team. This person's role is to help frame the human needs impact assessment of the community. Should FEMA/State Community Relations teams not bc present, this coordinator will interface with ESF-5 and Human Needs Assessment teams to develop a human needs impact profile. (3) Collier Emergency Response Volunteers (CERV) Committee for Unmet Needs - A committee that helps identify unmet needs and possible assistance. Such committee is comprised of volunteer agencies, private sector representatives, and governmental agencies. (4) Human Needs Assessment Team - A team that is deployed immediately after a disaster and before the establishment of a Disaster Field Office to help the County assess and report the immediate needs of disaster victims. Thcy will develop a list of observations for Human Needs Coordinator to prioritize for Community Relations teams to follow, for example: ensuring safety of community members in their purview, relaying information back to disaster field office/EOC, ensuring that special needs and special populations receive aid information as well, ensuring that accurate and timely information is provided. Basic - 55 Collier County Comnrehcnsiye Emerl!encY Manal!ement Plan 2008 -:t~ Llof3 June 24 2008 Additionally, the Human Needs Coordinator, who maintains the listing, will contact key community leaders regarding emergency commun ity necds. b. Recovery Facilities/Activities Recovery opcration sites such as: recovery centers, disaster field office, Disastcr Recovery Centers, and travel trailer/mobile home sites will be sited nearest the victims using community park facilities and leased commercial facilities. (I) Disaster Recovery Center - Centers that are set up in a disaster area to provide information on the complete range of disaster assistancc that is available. The responsibility for managing these centers is jointly shared by the State, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and the county. The Centers will be sited at, or near, the disaster areas, Community park buildings havc been identified throughout the county and its municipalities. Disaster Recovery Center administrative kits are located at Guardian Seasonal Storage (Davis & Santa Barbara) and will be delivered to each activated assistance center. (2) Reconstruction Information Center(s) (RIC) - Centers that are set up as onc-stop information and permitting point for coordination, technical assistance, and reconstruction expertise assistance in recovery and mitigation activities. These centers will be staffed by agencies with reconstmction and/or permitting responsibilities. The primary RlC will be established at Collier County Community Development & Environmental Services Building, 2800 North Horseshoe Drive, if undamaged and serviceable. (3) Disaster Field Office (DFO) - When an area is identified to receive a Presidential Disaster Declaration, the federal government (FEMA) sets up a Disaster Field Office in or near the affected area to coordinate fedcral recovery efforts with those of state and local governments. The federal government and the state government both have Coordinating Officers who serve as thc respective heads of the recovery effort. The Emergency Management Office will coordinate local activities to support the DFO. 3, Public Assistance Activities a. A Presidential Disastcr Declaration initiates a process that begins with applicants filing a Request for Public Assistance at an applicant's briefing. These briefings are publicized through the media and notifications to the county emergency management director in accordance with 44 CFR-206 Subpart G & H. The Office of Management and Budget, with the assistance from the Emergency Management Department, is responsible for administering the Public Basic - 56 :r~vY1l~f3 Collier County Comnfchensive Emcracncy Mana!!cmcnt Plan 200S June 24 200S Assistance Program for the unincorporated area of the county. All municipalities, not-for-profit and Indian tribes, will be notified of application opportunities by the Emergency Management Department. b. Project worksheets are prepared for eligible emergency costs and eligible costs for restoration of damaged facilities. c. The federal share for reimbursement under most federal declarations is 75 percent. The 25 percent non-federal share is normally provided from a combination of State and local sources in accordance with policies established by the Executive Office ofthe Governor and the Florida Legislature. In addition, the federal govcrnment does provide for an administrativc cost allowancc for each eligible project that is 100 percent federally funded. d. The State serves as the Grantee and cligible applicants are Sub-grantees under thc federal disaster assistance program. Contractual agreements with the State Division of Emergency Management are executed with applicants with all reimbursements coming through thc Division. Some of the Sub-grantees within Collier County are: the Board of County Commissioners, for those agencies which draw their monies from Gcneral Revenue; eaeh Fire District, each City, the Collier School District, each taxing district, etc. e. Documentation, rccord keeping, inspections, and final closeouts are overseen and approved by the Florida Division of Emergency Management. One office under each Sub-grantee will maintain these rccords locally making them available for audit. f. Non-presidential or agency declarations can provide some disaster assistance through the Department of Agriculture, the Small Business Administration. and other federal agencies. In the event there is no Fcderal or agency assistance available, the un met needs committee, para. 5 a. bclow, will be formed to see if any direct assistance agencies can address the victim needs with their resources, g. The Governor or the Legislature may authorize other assistance to a local government based upon a declared emergency. 4. Individuals & Household Programs a. Once a Presidential Disaster Declaration has been issued that authorizes Individuals & Household Programs, the State Individual Assistance Officer will coordinate with a federal counterpart on all related individual assistance programs, as defined and prescribed in 44 CFR, Part 206, Subparts D, E, and F, b, The primary means of applying for Individuals & Household Programs will be made through a National Tele-registration toll-free number. Basic - 57 T~IU3 Collier County Comorehensive EmerlZencv Manae.ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 c, Disastcrs that do not support the criteria for requesting Individuals & Household Programs as part of a Presidential Disaster Declaration may meet the criteria for other federal assistance, d. Individuals & Household Programs Inspectors will meet with the State Mitigation Officer in a contractor's Briefing. e. Temporary Housing - Following a "Presidential Disaster Declaration" FEMA will manage the Temporary Housing program. They will initially look for available rental properties and apartments before they will bring in mobile homes for disaster displaced victims. Prior to FEMA's arrival, governmental departments within the County that have access to agencies and businesses which control rental housing and subsidized housing, shall query their sources for available units then pass on the results to the FEMA housing activity upon their arrival. This activity will significantly reduce the time victims spend in the shelters and greatly contribute toward their recovery. Additionally, by being proactive, should the President not "Declare a Disaster", the Collier County community would solely need to deal with the housing issue whereby it would grcatly assist the victims for Government to direct the public to available housing; and, possibly local sources to assist the victims. 5, EmergencylDisaster Support Activities other than Public Assistance or Individuals & Household Programs. a. Unmet Needs Coordination The Collier Emergency Response Volunteers (CER V) meets as an Unmet Needs committee to deal with the essential needs of the victims and to coordinate donated goods and services. A Volunteer Center and Disaster Assistance Centers may be established in the county to help support unmet needs coordination operations (See Appendices 6 & 15). (I) Lead Person for Coordinating Volunteer Agencies Locally: The Housing & Human Services Program Manager with CCEM has lead responsibility for coordinating unmet needs agencies in the event of an emergency, (2) Agency Responsible for Vnmet Needs Coordination: Collier County Emergency Management will support the coordination of the un met nceds. (3) Role & Responsibility for Vnmet Needs Coordinator: The Housing & Human Services Program Manager is responsible for the oversight and coordination of Human needs agencies and their points of contact in the event of an emergency, (4) The Criteria for Coordination with Municipalities: Either a dec lared or undeclared emergency that requires a response to the Basic - 58 :r ~(Y\ lloF3 Collier County COlTIDrehensive Emergency Management Plan 2008 June 24 2008 community's needs that have not been met through either individual or municipal planning. (5) Groups that May Be Used to Comprise Unmet Needs Committee: Agencies that coordinate the skills of volunteers are utilized during an emergency. The agencies come together as CERV during the crisis and will disperse to non emergency rcsponse status once the needs are resolved. These agencies are usually thosc identified with ESFs 6 and 15. (6) Process for IdentifYing Local Unmet Needs and the Process to Address Them: Generally, agcncies (both non profit and profit) will notify the CCEM ofthe needs of the communities which they canvas. CCEM has a cooperative relationship with a multitude of field agencies in both emergency and non emergency times. During a major disaster operation FEMA will field Community Relations teams and Collier County, along with the American Red Cross, will field damage assessment teams to get a sense ofthe community's needs. (7) Training: In addition to Figure 14, above, training and seminars are available through several resources. Local businesses that special in home care offer classes; seminars are given CCEM stafT; training is offered through CCEM for weather emergencies; appropriate agencies provide clear directives on home care and debris removal. b. Emergency assistance may be provided through other State programs such as: . Small Cities Community Development Block Grant. . Community Services Block Grant, . Low-Incomc Home Energy Assistancc Program. . Low-Income Emergency Home Repair Program. . Homc Invcstment Partnership Program. . State Housing Initiative Partnership Program. 6. Collier County Disaster Recovery Task Force has two major hazard mitigation responsibilities: . Development and implement a redevelopment plan for hazard prone areas that would minimize repeated exposure to life-threatening situations; and . Implementation of an acquisition program to acquire storm damaged property in hazard prone areas The following strategies should be included in the recovery, reconstruction and mitigation ordinance: Basic - 59 :L\cm L(o-F3 Collier County Comnrchensive Emerl2"cncv Manal2"ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 . Essential Service and Facility Restoration Priorities; . Post Disaster Debris Clearance and Disposal Strategies; . Determination of Damage, . Build Back Policy; . Emergency Repairs; . Emcrgency Permitting System and Emergency Review Board; . Economic Development Policics; . Redevelopmcnt in High Hazard Areas; . Guidelines for Acquiring Damaged Property Emergency Support Function 5, Planning & Intelligence, is the section rcsponsible for the initial recovery component to disaster operations and works closely with the Recovery Task Force/Recovery Manager until those operations are moved outside the Emergency Operations Center. Its responsibilities include: . Review damage reports, . Address restoration issues, . Identify mitigation opportunities, . Hazard mitigation projects, 7. National Flood Insurance Program (NFlP) The three municipalities as well as unincorporated Collier County participate in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). All jurisdictions (except Evergladcs City) participate in the NFIP Community Rating System. G. Mitigation I. Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (Pre-Disaster) The Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group is composed of members drawn from county and municipal governments as well as from interested citizens from around Collier County and formed under the Collicr County Citizen Corps. The purpose of the Working Group is to identify new mitigation opportunities, tcchniques and, if necessary, rcprioritize existing mitigation projects. This group meets at least annually and after every disaster event that causes significant damages to infrastructure. This group is responsible for maintaining the Collier County Hazard Mitigation Plan. 2. lnteragcncy Hazard Mitigation Team (Post-Disaster) Mitigation Planning A,'sumption: Damagedfacilities should have mitigation measures considered in its repair (406 program). All other mitigation measures to non damaged structures should he addressed through the procedures address within the Collier County Hazard Mitigation Plan. The Collier County Emergency Management Director will serve as the Post- Disaster Hazard Mitigation Coordinator. ESF 5 is required to provide assistance in the establishment and coordination of State/Federal hazard mitigation efforts, Basic - 60 Collier County Comofehensive Emerl!encv Manallemcnt Plan lOOg 'l-tem I CoB June 24. 2008 including performancc of hazard mitigation projects or programs to reduce the community's hurricane susceptibility and vulnerability. An Interagency Hazard Mitigation Team comprised of federal, state and local agencies that were impacted by the disaster will need to identify failurcs and recommend mitigation activities that would prevent a recurrence. Reprcsentatives from the municipalitics as well as the County will be asked to participate on the IHMT. Due to the nature of the disastcr, the amount of people and equipment will vary. Equipment and vchicles necessary to perform mitigation assessment will come from the affected jurisdiction. Should additional personnel or items become necessary to complete this mission; the EOC Operations Officer will task the EOC staff. Staffs who participate in the mitigation assessment opportunities should complete mitigation training idcntified in Figure 14, above, The vast majority of the county is above the 1 DO-year flood plain; repetitive losses from flooding are down to virtually nonexistent. Frequent review and update of Building Codes have resulted in three modifications since 1992. Potential applicants for Public Assistance and Hazard Mitigation Programs will bc notified via facsimile. Agencies from County, Municipal, Indian tribes and Not-for-Profit organizations with a public safety role are included on the notification list. Post-disastcr mitigation activities within Collier County require a well- orchestrated and coordinated effort among the various levels of governments. Under the Federal Rcsponse Framework, a Deputy Federal Coordinating Officer for Mitigation will be appointed for each Presidential Declared disaster. The Deputy Federal Coordinating Officer for Mitigation will have a staff composed of hazard mitigation and flood plain managemcnt specialists. One of the major tasks assigned to thc Deputy Federal Coordinating Officer for Mitigation is to assure that mitigation disaster operations arc integrated and unified with the State and local recovcry cfforts. The State Mitigation Officer, working under thc direction of the Deputy State Coordinating Officer for Recovery should work in conccrt with the Deputy Federal Coordinating Officcr for Mitigation to assure that the State is aware of and takes advantage of all available mitigation opportunities. a. Post-Disastcr Mitigation (I) Mitigation Preliminary Damage Assessment - The Collier County Interagency Hazard Mitigation Team may request from the Statc Mitigation Officer to assign mitigation personnel to assist the community in conducting a Mitigation Preliminary Damage Assessment. The purposc of the Mitigation Preliminary Damage Assessment is to identify the causes of specific disaster related damagc in order to determine the appropriate mitigation measures. This assessment is forwarded to the appropriate Local Mitigation Strategy committee and the mitigation staff in the Disaster Field Office. (2) Mitigation Assessmcnt Report - The State Mitigation Officer coordinates with the Deputy Federal Coordinating Officer for Basic - 61 Collier County Comorehensive Emcf!!encY Manac:cmcnt Plan 2008 ::I.hrl t (0 f-3 June 24 200r! Mitigation to develop a mitigation assessment report which identifies appropriate mitigation measures and highlights the mitigation priorities as determined by the local mitigation strategies in the affected counties. These priorities and measures then guide the use of Statc and federal funds for mitigation purposcs. The Report is also the appropriate plan to identify any rccommended changes to the State Hazard Mitigation Plan based on lessons learned from the disaster. (3) Post-disaster Mitigation Technical Assistance - The Hazard Mitigation Grant Program is a fedcrally sponsored program administered by thc Florida Division of Emergency Management, Bureau of Recovery and Mitigation. The program providcs State funds equal to 20 percent of the total federal disaster expenditures in the aftermath of a Presidential Declared disaster. Thesc funds have a 25 perccnt nonfederal match requirement, and are distributed as grants to the communities affcctcd by the disaster to implement the mitigation projects identificd in the local miligation strategy. (4) Coordinatc with the Deputy Statc Coordinating Officer and the State Recovcry Officer to assure that the mitigation opportunities provided undcr the Individual Assistance Minimization Program are realized. The Minimization Program is designed to fund low cost activities that can be used to reduce future disaster losses to a rcsidential structure, Thc Minimization Program offers grants to eligiblc homeowners based on 25 percent of the total Individual and Family Grant award rcceivcd by the homeowner, for a maximum award of$5,000. (5) The Flood Mitigation Assistance Program - The Florida Division of Emergency Management, Bureau of Recovery and Mitigation manages the Flood Mitigation Assistance Program, This program makes federal funds available pre-disaster to fund mitigation projects in communities participating in the National Flood Insurance Program, These funds have a 25 percent non-federal match requirement. The overall goal of the Flood Mitigation Assistance Program is to fund cost effective measures that reduce or eliminate the long-term risk of flood damage to National Flood Insurance Program insurable structures. This is accomplished through the reduction of the number of repetitively or substantially damaged structures. b. Public Assistance Program This Program assures that the mitigation opportunities provided under Section 404 of the Stafford Act is realized. Also, Section 406 of the Stafford Act provides for direct federal assistance for repairs and improvements to eligible damaged public facilities. Mitigation measures (improvements) must be identified in the Project Worksheets. The award of Section 406 hazard mitigation projects is at the discretion of the Basic - 62 :I1crn 10f~ Collier County Comorchensive EmCnlenCy Manac:cment Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 Federal Emergency Management Agency Regional Director. The State Mitigation Officer will designate staff to support mitigation outreach at established Disaster Rccovery Centers, and at Reconstruction Information Center Centers. The State Mitigation Officer will designate staff to assist communities in completing their mitigation preliminary Damage Assessment reviewing and updating local mitigation strategies, identifying mitigation success stories, and potential mitigation grand fund projects. Section 404 monies (competitive grant hazard mitigation monies) can only be spent on projects contained in the Collier County Hazard Mitigation Plan. c. Long Term Redevelopment Activities The Department of Community Affairs administers a variety of programs that support pre-disaster, post-disaster, and mitigation activities, These programs include, but are not limited to a residential construction mitigation program and a resource identification strategy. These programs are designed to help minimize the impact of disasters and to address local un met needs identified after a disaster. H. MobilizationlDeployment of County Resources As a signatory to the Statewide Mutual Aid Agreement, signatory governments may be asked to deploy resources to other counties affected by a disaster. All requests for assistancc should be coordinated through the Collier County Emergency Management Department/ESF-5. Human Resource agencies of the potential Assisting Parties should screen potential deployment candidates for suitability, e.g., emergency contact information, health, immunization currency, financial details for family remaining behind. I, Requesting Party responsibilities include: a. A description of the type assistance needed. b. A description of the types of personnel, equipment, services and supplies needed. c. The place, date, and time for personnel of the requesting party to meet and receive personnel and equipment. d. A technical description of any communications or telecommunications equipment needed, e. Emergency contact names and telephone numbers for assisting personnel to providc their supervisors. 2. Assisting Party Responsibilities include: a. A description of the personnel, equipment, supplies and services it has available, together with a description of the qualifications of any skilled personnel. (Note: Personnel and equipment assigned to deploy must be Basic - 63 :I-kM lCof3 Collier County Comnrehcnsive Emen,ency Management Plan 200X June 24. 200S trained/credentialed according to the standards established by the National Incident Management System (NIMS) Integration Center.) b. An estimate of the time such personnel, equipment, supplies and services will continuc to be available. c. An cstimated cost for the assistance requested. d. An estimate ofthc time it will takc to deliver such personnel, equipment, supplies and services at the date, time and place specified. e. Self-Sufficiency, Those deploying to a catastrophic/major disaster area should have sufficient equipment and supplies to make them sclf- sufficient for food, shelter and operations unless the Requesting Party specifies otherwise. For minor disasters, the Requesting Party is required to provide food and shelter to the Assisting Party. f. A tcchnical description of the communications and telecommunications equipment. g. Submission of a bill for assistance within 30 days after the period of assistance closes. V. Financial Management A. Administrative Authoritics and Fiscal Guides Collier County fiscal management is consistcnt with the following: . Chapter 252, F.S.; . 44 CFR; . 29 CFR; . OMB A-87; . "The State of Florida Resource and Financial Management Policy and Procedures," February I, 1996. B, Resource Procurement and Reimbursement Use of Local Firms and Individuals. In the expenditure of Federal funds for debris clearance, distribution of supplies and other major disaster or emcrgcncy assistance activities which are carried out by private firms, preference will be given to individuals or companies that reside or do business in the affected area, to the maximum extent possible. (lAW USC 42 (307) 5150). Basic - 64 :r:bn ltoe Collier County COffiorehcnsive Emergency Manal!ement Plan 2008 ____ June 24. 2008 When major disaster assistance activities are carried out by private firms or individuals, preference will be given to individuals or companies that reside or do business primarily in the area affected by the disaster (PL 100.707, Paragraph 206.10 and Section 252.46, Florida Statutes.) Emergency use of resources and capabilities of the private sector will be pre-arranged through agreements to the maximum extent possible. Agreements shall be in writing and shall be entered into by duly appointed officials. Agreements between elements of the same level of government will be included as part of the plans of the government. Unless otherwise provided, agreements remain in effect until rescinded or modified. Annual updates should be conducted. A clear statement of agreement regarding payment or reimbursement for services rendered is necessary, Procurement of goods and services must meet all the requirements of established state and local procurement rules and regulations. See Appendix I to Basic, ESF 7 for additional information. C. Reporting Tasks and Established Deadlines Disastcr assistance grants are governed by time limits under 44 CFR, Part 206, and can be extended until the work is completed. D. Records Maintenance I. Local Accounting Each subdivision may allocate and expend funds as appropriate for local emergency operations. Complete, accurate accounts of emergency expenditures and obligations, including pcrsonnel and equipment costs, must be maintained. For the ease of capturing response and recovery expenditures, a separate disaster- rclated coding system should be used or use the forms found in Appendix 2 to Basic Plan includes personnel, materials, equipmcnt, contract and mileage. Despite the difficulty in maintaining such records in the stress of an emergency, agencies are required to identify and document: . Funds for which no federal reimbursement will be requested should a declaration be made and, . Funds eligible for reimbursement under emergency or major disaster project applications. 2. Reports and Records - General Basic - 65 -:r.jeVYl tM3 Collier County Comorehensivc Emerl.!encY Manai.!C111cnt Plan 2008 June 24. 200le! When federal public assistance is provided under the Disaster Relief Act, local projects approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency are subject to both state and federal audit. (Public Law 100-707, paragraph 206.16) During any emergency activity, the maintenance of accurate records is essential. Suspense dates and formats for reports will be in accordance with emergency reporting and preliminary damage assessment protocols and procedures. The Emergency Management Department shall be the central collection agency for logs and reporting information from all county agencies, as well as the Everglades City and Cities of Marco Island and Naples, associated with any gIven emergency. County and municipal governments, to record accurately and account for activities during an emergency, should keep the following records, at a minimum: . Rccord of expenditures and obligations; . Log of actions taken; . Recordings of ESA TCOM message traffic; . Historical records of declarations, newly created ordinances and any special actions taken to deal with the emergency. . Copy of the State's "Tracker Message", and number, to validate an authenticated and approved request. 3. Emergcncy Reporting Emergency reports such as preliminary damage assessment reports are the necessary basis for the Governor's decision to declare a state of disaster cmcrgency and to request a Prcsidential emergency or disaster declaration. Updates giving new developments and more complete Information Center will be forwarded as new information becomes available in the most expeditious manner availablc, i.e., facsimile, ESATCOM, INTERNET, "EM Constellation". 4. After Action Reports The Emergency Management Director will provide reporting requirements and suspcnse dates. Normally a critique and after action report will be completed within two weeks following the emergency or disaster and can be expected to address evaluations of: warning system effectiveness, practical application of emergency plans, communication effectiveness, coordination with adjoining counties and the State Division of Emergency Managcment, and the effectiveness of mutual aid agreements. VI. Continuity of Operations (COOP) and Continuity of Government (COG) Basic - 66 Collier County COlTIorehensive Emcmencv Manallcment Plan 2008 :r~t'Vl L to-f3 June 24. 2008 Continuity of Operations (COOP) is a process within individual departments and agencies to ensure the continued performance of minimum esscntial functions during a wide range of potential emergencies. This is accomplished through the developmcnt of plans, comprehensive guidelines, and provisions for alternate facilities, personnel, resources, interoperable communications, and vital records/ databases. The planning effort should consider essential activities that need to be up within each of the following scenario timelrames: 24-hours, seven days and 30-days. Continuity of Government is an essential function of emergency management and is vital during an emergency/disaster situation. Continuity of Ciovernment is defined as the preservation, maintenance, or reconstitution of the civil government's ability to carry out its constitutional responsibilities, A. Mission Essential Functions A disaster can affect public service activities in various ways. Equipment may be lost or destroyed, sufficient numbers of people needed to deliver a service may be deficient, supplies to meet the needs of the victims and residents may be lacking. Yet, disaster- affected and unaffected residents expect services to be delivered in an efficient and effective way. I. Each agency/activity governed by this CEMP will analyze its functions and rank- ordcr the services/activities from the most to the least critical. The results of this process/exercise can be contained in a Divisional standard operating procedure (SOG). A listing of each activity's Mission Essential Functions and the status of each will be provided to the Recovery Task Force, via ESF 5, upon request. 2. ESF 5 will compile the governmental activity status listing and provide it to the Recovery Task Force with impact assessments and recommendations. 3. The Recovery Task Force will validate the level of scrvice available to the community and/or shift resources to meet the service level expectations, B. Plans and Procedures A time-phased concept of operations to direct relocation of rostered personnel and resources to an alternate facility, along with the necessary support documentation should be developed and maintained by each activity. C. Delegation of Authority Each agency chicf should establish, in writing, the delegations of authority and lines of succession within the agencies when under a Local State of Emergency Declaration and other circumstances. This can be done through a standing agency SOG or letter. D. Orders of Succession The succession of authority in Collier County begins with a quorum ofthe Board of County Commissioners. The succession transfers from the quorum to the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, or the Vice-Chairman in his absence, or other Basic - 67 Collier County Comnrehensive Emergency Mana2.ement Plan 2008 :f-tm U.of3 June 24. 2008 Commissioner by seniority order in the Chair or Vice Chair's absence, or the County Manager in their absence, or the Clerk of the Court in his absence, or the Deputy County Manager in his absence. Each agency, in turn, should publish an internal order of succession letter that address three levcls below thc manager. E. Alternate Facilitics Each activity should identify and pre-plan for using an alternate facility capable of supporting operations for 30 days. This plan should include identifying the infrastructure for relocation of essential stafT. This information should be maintained in an organizational SOG. F. Interoperable Communications I. The Emergency Managemcnt Office ultimately possesses redundant and robust internal and external communications capability. Additionally, during a major emergency this office can supply emergency amateur radio operators with their cquipment. 2. Administrativc Services Division Administrator will develop a plan that prioritizes restoration of communications. This plan should be updated and validated annually. 3. Each activity should conduct an inventory of its communications assets and determine minimum mission essential levels. G. Vital Records and Databases Most vital records in the Collier County Government Center are located in buildings with first floor elevations higher than a Category 3 land falling storm. Additionally, all municipal government centers are within a Category I surge zone. All agencies should regularly review various methods to protect vital rccords based on the associated hazard, I. All county agencies must ensure the protection of their records so that normal procedurcs may continue after the disaster. Departments within the Administrative Services Division will assist activities in identifying way and means to best safeguard digital records. 2, Damage to records is most often the result of fire and/or water damage. Damaged records can oftcn be saved by prompt salvage action, Technical guidance for rccords salvagc operations may be obtained from the State Division of Emergcncy Managemcnt or the Collier County Emergency Management Departmcnt. 3. Vital records that establish or protect the rights of citizens and government are dividcd into two categories: . Category A: Records needed for the emergency operation of government during a disaster; and Basic - 68 :GIc'rn llof3 Collier County Comorchensivc Emeruencv Mana!!:cment Plan 200S June 24. 200R . Category B: Records needed for the re-establishment or continuity of normal governmental functions after the disaster event is over. 4. Agencies directly under the Board of County Commissioners are required to protect records under criteria previously established. Agencies that are not under the Board of County Commissioners are encouraged to use the criteria as guidance in their records preservation programs. H. Personnel Issues & Coordination To have a successful COOP/COG planning effort, each agency needs to address internal personncl issues that could affect your plan. Insure you address timing for employees to take care of pcrsonal matters while assuring the operation maintains a minimal acceptable level of performance. I. Logistics & Administration Because your plans are developed to continue operations to deliver services to the public, etc., your planning effort should be detailed enough to determine what needs to be packed and moved to who will move thc assets. The range of contingency planning should go from identifying what needs to be moved and set up at the alternate location to having to accomplish all the labor with only those resources your department possesses. 1. Security Depending on the emergcncy that warrants implementation of the COOP/COG plans, various levels of security should be factored in the planning process: from physical security of the facility for thc activities you plan to accomplish to cyber security of the vital records you deal with. K. Test, Training & Equipment To makc the Continuity of Operations and Continuity of Govcrnment Plans viable, all employees necd to be trained regularly on various elements of the plans in order to make sure all are aware of their roles and rcsponsibilities as well as validate the currency of plans and procedures. See Section IV, D (Preparcdness) for information on training and exercise opportunities. L. Emergency Actions The Collicr Countv Comorehensive Emergencv Management Plan assigns lead and support responsibilities to County agencies and personnel for emergency support functions and other support activities. Specific emergcncy delegations are contained in this plan. The head of each tasked organization shall identify a pcrson as the emergency coordination ofticer (ECO) for that agency to Ihe Collier County Emergency Management Office, The ECO is rcsponsible for coordinating with the Emergency Management Office on emergency preparedness issues, preparing and mainlaining emergency preparedness and post disaster response and recovery plans for such agency, maintaining rosters of Basic - 69 'I-b'Yllwf 3 Collier County Comorchensive Emen!encY Management Plan 20ng June 24 2008 personnel to assist in disaster operations, and coordinating appropriate training for agency personne I.

This structure provides mechanisms for providing governmental support to jurisdictions within the County, between Counties, or from the county to the State both for declared disasters and emergencies under the Stafford Act and for non-Stafford Act events, Each ESF group (lead and support agencies) is responsible for identifying and coordinating resources necessary to accomplish emergency management missions during the response, recovery and mitigation phases of a disaster event. Some departments and agencies provide resources for response, support, and program implementation during the early stage of an event, while others are more prominent in the recovery phase. B. Scope The resources may be utilized under any level of disaster activation: incident, minor, major or catastrophic, C. Standard Operating Guidance Each ESF shall develop standard operating guidance that ensures capability to carry out their respective missions, D. Resource Identification I. Necessary resources are defined as those that would be required for optimal response to an emergency or disaster. 2. A vailable resources are defined as those that are currently in the possession of or under the purview of Collier County. They include personnel, technology, equipment and supplies. 3, Obtainable resources include personnel, technology, equipment, facilities, materials, and supplies that are obtainable from contractors, vendors, suppliers, and related agencies. The business, agency or department resources that are not under the purview of the county structure shall be coordinated through Memoranda of Understanding (MOU). The MOU will specify the resources that will be provided and reimbursement mechanisms. 4, Resource shortfalls shall be defined as the difference between available and obtainable resources vs. the necessary resources to accomplish the ESF missions. Appendix 1 to Basic General - Page 2 :r-k:fYll~ Collier County Comorehensive Emen!cncY Manae:cment Plan 2008 June 24 2008 Resource shortfalls shall be projected as part of each ESP's standard operating procedures, by disaster level (minor, major or catastrophic), to ensure that specific requests to the State Emergency Operations Center can be quickly made. E. Policies Each ESF will utilize resources available and obtainable to accomplish missions/tasks within its defined purpose, Resource shortfalls will be coordinated through the Collier County EOC, so that a formal request can be made for additional resources through the most appropriate means.

The basic human services needs include: temporary shelter, feeding, first aid, clothing, disaster welfare information, and transition from pre- disaster response to post-disaster recovery. POLICIES Appendix I to Basic ESF 6 - Page I June 24. 2008 'I-t'mlGRa I. Shelters shall be managed in accordance with ARC 3031, "Mass Care - Preparedness and Operations" (April 1987), regardless of whether they are county operated shelters or ARC designated shelters. 2. The Salvation Army Standard Operating Procedures and Food Protocols shall serve as the standard protocols for comfort stations and mass feeding sites. 3. The Emergency Management Department, in consultation with the Board of County Commissioners, Sheriff's Office and on-scene Incident Commander will make determinations as to which populations need to be evacuated and when provisions for mass care will be provided. 4. Special Needs Shelters will be managed and staffed in accordance with the recommendations of the Collier County Special Needs Task Force, as described in the County's "Special Needs Shelter Manual" (April 1997). The manual is incorporated into this plan by reference. 5. The Collier County "Inclement Weather Sheltering Policy" incorporated in this plan by reference, shall serve as guidance for inclement weather shelter operations. 6. Generally speaking, Points of Distribution (POD) sites will not be established with five miles of an operating main food store chain. At these POD sites, commodities for public distribution will vary based on the effects of a particular disaster event, e.g., ice, water, roofing tarps, food, etc. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS Comfort Stations are designed to support existing services lost or overwhelmed due to disaster: feeding, temporary refuge (respite), information, first aid, crisis counseling, social service assistance and showers. Points of Distribution are sites established near disaster impacted areas whereby people can drive through the location in order to receive emergency essential items such as: ice, water, food, tarps, etc. Additionally, this appendix addresses the strategy use d by Collier County to facilitate meeting the short-term and long-term housing needs of disaster victims. ORGANIZATION In the Incident Management System, ESF 6 is a function in the Human Services Branch and reports through the Operations Section, Response Unit. RESPONSIBILITIES The Emergency Management Director and Collier County Public Schools Representative, in coordination with the superintendent, will determine which facilities are to be used as shelters and the time of shelter opening. The school representative will alert school staff, ARC will alert shelter managers. The Emergency Management Department will contact law-enforcement for security, C.E.R.A./SWFARA for communications and EMS for basic medical support at each shelter. Shelter openings and times will be disseminated to local media via "blast fax". 1. Maintain current listing of shelter sites and up-to-date comfort site resource lists. 2. Open and operate shelters (evacuation centers) and feeding centers for people who must evacuate due to a disaster or potential threat. 3.

Both short term and long term housing needs will be addressed. BACKGROUND: Hurricane Wilma (2005) demonstrated the need to have options developed prior to a disaster event to meet the housing needs of the displaced residents of Collier County. DEFINITIONS: . Short-term Housing Assistance: Housing assistance for up to 30 days to meet immediate post- disaster housing needs. . Long-term Housing Assistance: Temporary housing assistance for up to 18 month, unless extended by FEMA. . Comfort Stations: These resources are provided by the State to establish a communal-type service in a neighborhood in order to allow people back into their homes while addressing basic health and safety needs, e.g., showers, waste, feeding, first aid, etc. GOALS: . Get people back into their homes. o Through rapid habitability assessments o Through installation of Comfort Stations . Identify retail temporary housing sites on the economy, e.g., apartments, hotels/motels, etc. . Provide communal housing facilities using government or private-non-profit facilities. . Smooth the process of permitting and temporary zoning waivers, etc., to accommodate the prompt placement of mobile homes and travel trailers. . Last resort; identify potential lands that could be used by FEMA for temporary mobile home communities or group sites for displaced disaster victims. (NOTE: May require private/public partnerships in order to accomplish this mission.) ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES: In order for this strategy to be successful, initial roles and responsibilities need to be embraced by those tasked. . EmerQency ManaQement Deoartment will maintain this strategy. . American Red Cross will mainly be responsible for administering short-term housing as it relates to shelters. . Collier County Parks & Recreation Deoartment will provide the "bridge" between short-term and long-term housing using recreation center facilities should no other short-term housing assistance be readily available. . Tourism Deyelooment Council (TDC) will maintain contacts with the hotel-motel industry for room availability. Community Develooment & Environmental Services Division (CDES) will report on the status of HUD housing availability, home & apartment-rental availability, travel trailer/mobile home pad site availability, provide habitability assessment services for any dwelling unit or structure identified for Appendix 1 to Basic June 24. 20QS ESF 6 - Page 5 :I-tvn l(of3 disaster housing use and provide land use verification for potential housing missions to include zoning restrictions and elevation determinations. SHORT-TERM HOUSING: Immediately after the disaster event passes, initial damage assessment and habitability assessment teams will blanket the community to assess the impact and potential housing needs. While this is occurring, shelters (Collier County Schools) will begin the process of closing and the EOC will begin the process of identifying & opening community shelters for those unable to return to their homes because they are neither safe, sanitary nor secure. . The EOC will identify potential communities that can benefit by having Comfort Stations and initiate the process with the State to bring them to those areas. . TOC will prepare a listing of hotel/motel room availability and furnish it to the State/FEMA Housing Officer. . COES will identify potential home and apartment rental leads to the State/FEMA Housing Officer. LONG-TERM HOUSING: While short-term housing operations are occurring, long-term housing options begin. . State/FEMA Housing officers, with the help of the appropriate COES departments, will facilitate placing people in leased accommodations within the community. . COES will facilitate the legal requirements to allow travel trailers to be temporarily placed within housing communities while repairs to the permanent homes occur. . COES will help State/FEMA Housing officers identify sites for placement of mobile homes (individual lots and/or open lands for new temporary mobile home communities) Note: Initial Staging Area(s) for travel trailers/mobile homes: The potential areas that have been identified for the drop-off area of disaster housing units are: . Collier County Fair Grounds . lmmokalee Airport Appendix 1 to Basic ESF 6 - Palle 6 June 24. 2008 T-b"n llPf3 Points of Distribution & County Staging Area Strategy Attachment 2 PURPOSE: Develop a strategy identify Points of Distribution (POD) sites and Logistical Staging Areas around the county as well as to determine the resources required to activate them. BACKGROUND: Hurricane Wilma (2005) demonstrated the need to identify and activate an initial single large, survivable site in the county to receive State/FEMA-delivered food, water ice, etc., items for distribution to the public. Then to break down those supplies and distribute them to the Impacted areas while assessing which pre-sited PODs would be activated to best serve the affected communities. We found that by activating all PODs simultaneously, resources were spread too thinly; resources were sent to areas not needing the supplies and promises were broken; thereby almost causing a riotous situation. GOALS: . Establish a county logistical staging area to receive emergency supplies and equipment. . Establish a mobile emergency supply distribution capability for immediate safe response to impacted areas as soon as possible. . Efficiently establish practical points of distribution (PODs) in an impacted community that will be of the greatest benefit to the most victims. ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES: In order for this strategy to be successful, initial roles and responsibilities need to be embraced by those tasked. . Emergency Management Department will determine which PODs are activated and provide overall POD program management and supervision. . Real Estate Services will make contacts & arrange leases and agreements. . Parks & Recreation Department will plan for their Parks employees being avaiiable to distribute product to the disaster victims. They will be the lead agency for each POD. . Code Enforcement Department will provide product distribution assistance to disaster victims under the direction of the Emergency Management Director, once the preliminary damage assessment tasks are complete, as determined by the Building Director or his/her designee. . Human Resources Department will plan to identify employees to staff each POD 72-hours alter the initial POD is activated. . Collier County Sheriff will assist with traffic control and security at each POD and monitor crowd activities. . Collier County Purchasing will arrange for contracts for material handling equipment and POD support items, e.g., lighting units, porta-potties, etc. . Each citywiil plan to assume responsibility and staffing for their respective PODs should they require them beyond the initial 72-hour operation. Depending on the magnitude of the disaster, one (or two) main initial POD(s) will be established to receive State/Federal disaster relief essential supplies. The State will establish the initial POD with material handling equipment (MHE) and 20 Florida National Guard. They will be responsible for the POD in the initial 72-hours; then the County assumes responsibility for the POD. (NOTE: The State will not place a POD within 5 miles of an open major retailer supermarket or home improvement store.) Appendix I to Basic ESF 6 - Pa!!e 7 June 24, 2008 ~1efY' Itof3 A listing of potential POD sites will be maintained in the Emergency Operations Center by ESF-5, Planning & Intelligence. The reason for this is: Advertisement for an operational POD will not occur until the site is ready for operation. The State Division of Emergency Management has a copy of the county's potential POD listing. Initial Staging Area(s): We will attempt to task the Compassion Alliance to site-survey and provide the initial set-up guidance for each of the PODs. (Compassion Alliance is a non-profit organization dedicated to humanitarian aid for children at risk, the needy and poor worldwide.) We will use the "State's County Point of Distribution Model" as a guideline to staff, organize and equip local PODs. Depending on how a disaster impacts a community, the EOC will deploy mobile units to distribute essential supplies, e.g., water, ice & food, etc., to impacted areas until a suitable POD can be established. Non- Governmental Organizations (NGO) wishing to participate in bulk distribution of essential supplies will coordinate their activities with the EOC, ESF-15, Volunteers and Donations, in order to pick up bulk items at the County Staging Area.

BACKGROUND: A variety of disasters have demonstrated the need to have people available to explain the emergency assistance available to disaster victims. DEFINITIONS: . Mobile Disaster Recovery Centers (MDRC): They are RVs equipped with computers and satellite uplink capabilities. Designed as traveling disaster recovery centers, MDRCs can be centrally located in disaster areas. . Disaster Recovery Centers (DRC): A fixed site, usually a community center, sited near the disaster areas equipped with phone services and fax services and staffed with representatives from federal, state and local agencies. SERVICES: . Guidance regarding disaster recovery; . Clarification of any written correspondence received; . Housing Assistance and Rental Resource information; . Answers to questions, resolution to problems and referrals to agencies that may provide further assistance; . Status of applications being processed by FEMA; and . U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) program information. ROLES & RESPONSIBiliTIES: In order for this strategy to be successful, initial roles and responsibilities need to be embraced by those tasked. . EmerClencv ManaClement Department will: o Identify potential DRC sites to the SEOC, o Make the requests to the SEOC for DRCs, o Insure FEMA is provided a liaison for each DRC, o Coordinate local agency presence at each DRC from the follow agencies based upon the type needs anticipated: .

All operations will be conducted using the Incident Command System (ICS) or National Incident Management System (NIMS) with a Unified Command Structure being utilized whenever applicable. 5. Providing for the safety and health of all emergency personnel by providing logistical support, foodlhydration, shelter and medical care. ESF-9 will interface with ESF-8, ESF-II and ESF-15. Assignment of Responsibilities Lead Agency The Collier County Emergency Medical Services Department is designated as the Lead Agency for this ESF and will coordinate all activities of ESF-9. As the Lead Agency they are responsible for the following: I. Notification, activation and mobilization, through Collier County Emergency Management (CCEM), of all agencies assigned to the ESF. 2. Organization, assignment and staffing of all facilities at which this ESF is required to be located. 3. Coordination of all support agency actions in performance of missions assigned to this ESF. 4. Coordinating requests for assistance and additional resources in performance of the mission of this ESF from all assigned agencies and forwarding them to the appropriate ESF or agency. 5. Providing situation reports as to ESF-9 status reports to ESF-5 periodically or on request. 6. ESF-9 will interface with ESF-6 and ESF-8 to assist with medical treatment of patients as needed. 7. ESF-9 will interface with the Medical Examiner for all fatalities. 8. ESF-9 will collect, coordinate and distribute initial impact analysis information as quickly as possible. Aviation assets (fixed wing and rotary) utilizing video cameras will be the quickest way to identify the extent of storm damage over large areas. More localized information will come from fire and law enforcement reconnaissance teams. Support Agencies All support agencies of this ESF are responsible for the following: I. Notifying, activating, and mobilizing all personnel and equipment to perform or support assigned functions as designated within the Basic Plan of this document or the response actions of this annex. 2. The designation and assignment of personnel for staffing of all facilities at which this ESF is required, and representation is detennined by the primary agency of this ESF to be necessary. 3. Coordination of all actions of the support agency with the primary agency in performing assigned missions of the ESF. Appendix 1 to Basic ESF 9 - Page 3 June 24, 2008 ~M lLpf3 4. Identifying all personnel and resource requirements to perform assigned missions that are 10 excess of the support agencies capabilities. Response Requirements Federal and State assistance to this ESF will be provided under Public Law 93-288, and Florida Statute 252, and the Florida Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. However, during the emergency response and for the first hours after the occurrence of catastrophic emergency there may be little or no assistance available. The primary and support agencies of the ESF must plan to be as self sufficient as feasible while awaiting state and/or federal assistance. Resource Coordination This ESF will provide resources using its Primary and Support agency authorities and capabilities, in coordination with other ESFs, to support its missions. This ESF will allocate available resources to each mission based upon priorities identified by the EOC. If resources are unavailable within this ESF, this ESF, through CCEM, will request assistance from either the State Emergency Response Team (SERT) Liaison in the EOC, if one is available or, the corresponding ESF at the State EOC or Federal Disaster Field Office. All resources will be directed to a pre-designated staging area. All municipalities and all other ESFs will coordinate with this ESFs representation at the EOC when requesting emergency support or disaster assistance from this ESF. Response and Recovery Coordination 1. ESF-9 may, through CCEM, request assistance from ESF-9 at the State and Federal level. 2. State assets will be coordinated by this ESF to assist and augment local agencies with their Emergency Search and Rescue Operations responsibilities and efforts. 3. Multi-jurisdictional Search and Rescue Operations responses will be coordinated by ESF-9. Operating Facilities In addition to the operating facilities identified in the Basic Plan of this document, a Field Operations Center (FOC) may be established and utilized by this ESF when deemed necessary. Coordination of Actions All agencies assigned with this ESF shall coordinate all actions in performance of emergency response and assistance missions with the Lead Agency of this ESF in the EOC. Assumptions 1. A major or catastrophic disaster may result in a substantial number of persons being in life- threatening situations requiring prompt rescue and medical care. Since the first 72 hours are crucial to lessening the mortality rate, SAR/USAR must begin immediately. Depending upon the type and magnitude of the disaster, urban, rural, or wilderness SAR may be mandated. SAR/USAR personnel will potentially have to deal with extensive damage to buildings, roadways, public works, communications, and utilities. Secondary to the precipitous event, Appendix 1 to Basic ESF 9 - Page 4 June 24, 2008 ~ tl.Q-f3 effects such as fires, explosions, flooding, and hazardous material releases may compound problems and may threaten both survivors and rescue personnel. 2. Under the best of circumstances, the management and coordination of a large Search and Rescue Operation is complex and may involve multiple agencies. Victims from emergency or hazardous conditions of potentially disastrous proportion, or which are coincident with any other emergency situation, will place excessive requirements upon local Search and Rescue Operations. 3. In the wake of the disaster, many of the local resources may be unavailable due to damage or inaccessibility, or the local resources may not be sufficient to handle the demand for assistance. This may require that significant amounts of resources will have to be transported into the area. Planning Assumptions I. All available local SARlUSAR resources will be committed, and additional help will be needed from outside sources. 2. Coordination and direction of the local efforts, including volunteers, will be required. 3. Damaged areas may have access restrictions and not be readily accessible except, in some cases, by air or boat. In some cases specialized equiprnent such as brush trucks or swamp buggies may be utilized. 4. Secondary events or disasters may threaten survivors as well as SARlUSAR personnel. 5. Coordination with municipalities, critical facilities, other ESFs efforts, and other government agencies will be required. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS General During declared States of Local Emergency, the Lead Agency of this ESF is responsible for implementing its functions. A representative of the Lead Agency will be available in the EOC during activation to respond to requests for support submitted to this ESF. This person will staff the work station assigned to this ESF in the EOC, and will identify which support agencies for the ESF are required, and take steps to assure that support agencies are acti vated or on alert as appropriate. ESF-9 will coordinate the provision of other jurisdictional search and rescue operations personnel and equipment. It will also coordinate the mobilization of resources through the CCFC Association, Florida Fire Chief's Association (FFCA) Fire Rescue Disaster Plan. It will additionally coordinate with ESF-15 for the utilization of other resources volunteered from other sources. EMERGENCY SUPPORT FUNCTION ORGANIZATION Federal Level At this level, this ESF will be organized in accordance with the Federal Response Plan.

(Source: FEMA funded, state administered.) How to Apply for Assistance: . Those in the counties designated for assistance to affected residents and business owners can begin the disaster application process by registering online at www.fema.gov or by calling 1-800-621- FEMA (3362) or 1-800-462-7585 (TTY) for the hearing and speech impaired. The toll-free telephone numbers are available from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. (local time) seven days a week. Applicants registering for aid should be prepared to provide basic information about themselves (name, permanent address, and phone number), insurance coverage and any other information to help substantiate losses. . Application procedures for local governments will be eXplained at a series of federaVstate applicant briefings with locations to be announced in the affected area by recovery officials. Approved public repair projects are paid through the state from funding provided by FEMA and other participating federal agencies. FEMA coordinates the federal government's role in preparing for, preventing, mitigating the effects of, responding to, and recovering from all domestic disasters, whether natural or man-made, including acts of terror. Appendix 1 to Basic ESF 14 - Page 8 June 24,2008 'l+tJY') \ 0E3 Attachment 3 Tips to Speed Disaster Victim Assistance In order for a community to receive a formal Presidential Disaster Declaration, FEMA must conduct a damage assessment. The following details the process: Be Alert for Disaster Fraud FEMA inspectors carry official photo identification. FEMA urges residents to ask for photo identification from damage inspectors, who will have specific FEMA identification showing that they are authorized to conduct an inspection. Anyone who suspects they may have been unfairly targeted for fraud should report the incident. . FEMA IDs carry the person's name and photo, and the FEMA seal and the ill's expiration date are highly visible. . A FEMA ID includes a "property of the U.S. Government" disclairner, a return address and a barcode. . Official inspectors never ask for money or use a vehicle bearing a FEMA logo. FEMA coordinates the federal government's role in preparing for, preventing, rnitigating the effects of, responding to, and recovering frorn all domestic disasters, whether natural or man- made, including acts of terror. The following information should be made available to the public upon receiving a Presidential Disaster Declaration. Action plan to help speed the possibility of obtaining state and federal disaster aid: . Apply as soon as possible. Homeowners, renters, and business owners who suffered losses must call the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) tele-registration line to apply for assistance at (800) 621-FEMA (3362) or TTY (800) 462-7585, or go online at www.fema.gov. . Apply, even if you are insured. Your insurance coverage may not be adequate and some foundation damage may not show up until later. Anyone who suffered any damage or loss should apply for assistance. . Remember, disaster assistance covers a wide range of losses. Disaster-related damage or loss of essential personal property, anything from a wheelchair to a major appliance, may qualify for some form of federal/state assistance. . Stay in touch and keep appointments. After you have applied for disaster assistance, a FEMA inspector will make an appointment to visit your home, usually within two to three days. Make every effort to be at home or call to change the appointment by using the FEMA tele-registration Appendix 1 to Basic ESF 14 - Page 9 Jun~ 24, 2008 :I~(Y) lLPf3 line at (800) 621-FEMA (3362) or TTY (800) 462-7585. . Visit a Disaster Recovery Center. Federal and State officials are available to meet with residents at locations to be announced. . Return all forms promptly. After applying, you may receive a U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) low-interest loan application package in the mail. Fill out and return these forms promptly since they are an essential part of the disaster-assistance process. . Rebuild with disaster prevention in mind. If you receive an emergency housing repair grant from FEMA, a follow-up letter will arrive after you receive your check. That letter will identify the purpose of the grant and will highlight the need to make repairs that will lessen the risks of future losses. What to Expect After Applying If you are deemed eligible for disaster assistance, you will receive a letter from FEMA providing guidance on your disaster relief grant. FEMA disaster assistance is not intended to restore you to your pre-disaster condition. It is to help you get safe and sanitary housing and meet your other critical needs so you can begin your long-term recovery. The SBA offers low-interest federal disaster loans to repair or replace damaged or destroyed property. You can call the tele-registration line for answers to your questions about federal assistance. If you are not satisfied with FEMA's decision on your application, you can file an appeal in writing to the address listed in the letter you receive. Appeals must be filed within 60 days of the date of the FEMA letter. Before starting any repairs or reconstruction, check with local building officials on what permits and inspections might be needed. If you were displaced from your home and incurred hotel or motel expenses, save those receipts and check with FEMA on how you might be reimbursed. File your insurance claim as soon as possible. Failure to file within 12 months can affect your eligibility for FEMA assistance. Call FEMA if your insurance settlement is delayed, if it does not cover your loss, or if your additional living expense benefit is exhausted. FEMA coordinates the federal government's role in preparing for, preventing, mitigating the effects of, responding to, and recovering from all domestic disasters, whether natural or man-made, including acts of terror. Schedule Damage Inspection by FEMA The srnall corps of inspectors working for the U.S. Departrnent of Homeland Security's Federal Ernergency Management Agency (FEMA) move systernatically around the area to assess property darnage left behind by the disaster event. The U.S. Srnall Business Adrninistration (SBA) as well as insurance companies also have inspectors in the field.

SCOPE To coordinate response/recovery efforts as related to volunteers (pre-assigned and convergent) and to assure the expeditious response/ recovery delivery of donated goods to the affected area within Collier County. ESF 15 - Volunteers and Donations will be composed of entities with major roles in coordination of volunteer efforts. The scopes of activities of ESF 15 include, but are not limited to: I. Maintaining a volunteers and donations phone and data bank. Appendix 1 to Basic ESF 15 - Page 1 June 24, 2008 :L-t:'rn 1l.t:F3 2. Assessing and prioritizing affected areas -un met needs. 3. Deploying resources, both human and material, to meet specified needs. 4. Maintaining contact with the SEOC ESF 15. ASSUMPTIONS I. Once emergency conditions subside, individuals and relief organizations from outside the disaster area will begin to collect materials and supplies to assist the devastated region. 2. Individuals and organizations will feel compelled to go to the area to offer assistance. 3. When disaster situations occur, a need for an organized response is imperative. 4. Local volunteer groups will experience a deficit in some, if not all, areas. This may necessitate State and possibly Federal assistance. 5. EOC command staff will make the initial identification of resource needs POLICIES I. The resources available by the Volunteer and Donations functions will be utilized to assist organizations and individuals with unmet needs. Basic policies, which will determine the operational procedures, are: . Determine the area with the greatest need. This will be based upon the needs assessment as provided through the initial and subsequent RIA T deployments as well as field reports from Collier County Emergency Divisions and will be compiled through the Planning Section. . Priority for delivery of goods for basic needs; i.e., food, water, medical care, shelter. · Distribution of public information regarding resources needed/not needed. · Maintenance of a complete database to assure prompt allocation of available resources. · Assumption that resources will be needed during a major event for at least six months. 2. The Emergency Management Department will coordinate activities of the Planning Section, with assistance from the Support agencies. 3. All personnel, technology, equipment, facilities, goods, services and cash received through donations from the community at large will be made available to support the response and recovery efforts of local government and private not for profit agencies. 4. Donations and volunteers solicited and collected by specific organizations are the responsibility of that agency, within their respective plans and procedures. The ESF IS plan is not meant to interfere with that process. Appendix 1 to Basic ESF 15 - Page 2 Junt:24,2008 T-bnlL0f3 5. ESF 15 in concert with ESF 7 - Resource Support will contact authorized vendors to supply unmet needs. ESF 15 with the assistance ofESF 14 - Public Information will solicit support from volunteer groups to address unmet needs; this request will also be disseminated to all local media via "blast fax". 6. Donations will not be requested without first obtaining concurrence ofESF-15 leader. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS 1. General: The primary function of Volunteer and Donations is to expedite delivery of donated goods and services in order to meet the needs of the affected area. In all probability, the outpouring of goods and services will not parallel Collier County's needs. Due to this inequity it is imperative that a defined tracking mechanism be implemented to facilitate the proper utilization of incoming goods and volunteers. The distribution of goods and volunteers will necessitate cooperation with all Support Functions including Law Enforcement (ESF 16), Transportation (ESF I), Public Information (ESF 14), Resource Support (ESF 7), as well as the municipal liaisons. Close coordination between regional recovery sites and other impacted counties will be of primary concern. 2. County: The volunteer liaison assigned by the Collier County Emergency Management Department will work from the County EOC and will interface with the Volunteers and Donations Command Center (V ADCC) that will be established at the Collier County Recovery Center, at a Collier County Community Center located near the disaster area. The Volunteer Coordinator appointed by Collier County Emergency Management located at the EOC will interface with local volunteer agencies.

The Pet Friendly Adjacency Shelter is considered to be activated whenever it is requested by the Director of Emergency Management via the County Manager. This activation would more than likely involve an imminent disaster and either a Federal, State, or Local Disaster Declaration. Assumptions: . Collier County Domestic Animal Services will direct and control all activities related to animal protection and control during an emergency. . Support agencies include the Coilier County Animal League, American Red Cross, Collier County Sheriff's Office, Collier County Facilities Department, Parks and Recreation, and the Emergency Management Department. . Any emergency resulting in evacuation of residents to a shelter will result in domestic animal issues. . The protection of the domestic animals (licensed dog or cat) is the responsibility of the owner. . The Pet Friendly shelter will be available for the first 72 hours, then procedures will start for community re-entry Standard Operating Procedures: Any time the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) is placed in an elevated level of activation, Domestic Animal Services will be notified of a potential Pet Shelter activation. Concurrent notifications will also go out to Parks and Recreation, American Red Cross, The Collier County Animal League, Collier County Sheriff's Office and Collier County Facilities Department. Once evacuation areas are established and traditional shelter selections are determined (no later than 48 hours notice whenever possible) DAS will be requested to fully activate their Pet Shelter at the North Collier Regional Park (NCRP). Evacuation Zone Sheltering: Although all County citizens are eligible to pre-register their pets, admittance in the designated shelter will depend on the area of evacuation determined by the Director of the Emergency Operations Center. Collier County will be broken down into grid areas and these designated areas will be communicated to all Collier County Citizens. Once the decision is made on what areas are to be evacuated, phone messages via the Phone Master system will communicate to all pre-registered pet owners of whether they are eligible for sheltering or not. Appendix 1 to Basic ESF 17 - Pal!e 4 June 24, 2008 :r:-t:'m ItF3 Initial Notification Procedures from the EOC: It is the responsibility of the Emergency Operations Center, utilizing their Time Delineation Schedule to formally notify the Director of DAS of an impending disaster event and to remain on "Stand By" status until activation has been determined. At that time, the EOC will activate their pre-event Portable On Demand Storage Units (PODS) rental contract and have the necessary units deployed to the parking lot of the North Collier Regional Park Maintenance Facility. Furthermore, this is the time to contact Facilities Management to ensure a minimum of two (2) covered golf carts are deployed to the shelter and to potentially access "Port 0 Potties" if needed. At this time, Facilities can determine the availability in utilizing Wackenhut for additional security and Golf Cart transport and to request trash dumpster. Once, Pet Shelter activation has been decided upon, the EOC will again notify the Director of DAS and it will be the responsibility of DAS to coordinate ancillary notifications to participating agencies. This notification will allow for a minimum of 48 hours notice to accomplish notifications and set up processes. Ensure that an up to date phone tree is available for government employees and volunteers. Ensure that all participants review the National Incident Management System (NIMS) roles and responsibilities (attached). The following is a list of agencies that are required notification: Appendix 1 to Basic ESF 17 - Page 5 June 24, 2008 :c-t-&i lloF3 ESF 18: BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY AGENCIES Lead Collier Co.

Extreme ColdlFreeze Extreme cold and freezes are relatively infrequent events in Collier County. The main threats from these events are to lives/health of people with insufficient shelter and to agri- business crops. This part of the plan is implemented when temperatures are expected to drop below 40 degrees for at least two hours, factoring in the wind chill. No EOC activation anticipated. a. Level Three, Monitoring Phase, implemented. b. Emergency Management will monitor weather conditions, coordinate the opening of homeless shelters and disseminate the opening of shelter information to the media and other agencies. C. ThunderstormlLightningITornado I. Severe thunderstorms, which have lightning and the potential for tornadoes, are frequent here in the summer and fall months. The EOC is not likely to be activated beyond a Level Three, unless a tornado F-I, or greater, impacts somewhere in Collier County resulting in loss of life and/or property. Then the EOC will be in a post-disaster type operation. The main activity for County Government is to maintain contact with the Weather Service Office, SkyWarn Spotters, etc., and disseminate weather warnings/updates via communication system addressed in Basic Plan. 2. Level Three, Monitoring Phase Emergency Management will monitor the storm system's potential and disseminate the information to those most affected via means identified in the Basic Plan. 3. Level Two, Partial Activation a. Emergency Management will: (I) Based on the impact of the storm, activate the Emergency Information phone bank. (2) Provide on-going situation reporting to the State. (3) Maintain contact with the Weather Service and disseminate weather updates and other information to the media and public. (4) Request shelter openings, as required. b. American Red Cross will: (I) Open shelters as requested. (2) Provide humanitarian services, as necessary.

Communication & Community Relations Department will activate ESF- 14 in the EOC. 4. Level One, Full Activation This level of activation would occur if a catastrophic tornado, F-3, or greater, impacted lives and property within Collier. Should this, occur, all actions described in the Basic Plan will occur. D. Drought I. Droughts in recent years mainly affect inland Collier County. Specifically, the main hazard is wells drying up. When this is the case, usually the well services are so far behind in drilling new wells that governmental intervention may be needed in order to keep people in their homes. An associated hazard with drought is sinkholes. No EOC activation is anticipated. 2. Level Three, Monitoring Phase a. Emergency Management Office will: (I) Monitor activities related to the drought, participate in conference calls with the State, and closely coordinate remedial activities, water rationing information dissemination, with the public. Annex A - Page 6 ::L1on \ 1QP3 Collier County Comorehensive Emece:encv ManaQement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 (2) Consider drafting a Local State of Emergency in order to help a community stay in their homes, versus needing to reside in a shelter due to the lack of water and/or septic system operation. b. Public Services Division (Dept. of Health) will provide private well water testing when situation warrants. E. Tropical Storm/Hurricane 1. Because we are a coastal community, these storms have the greatest potential for loss of life and catastrophic property losses. For that reason the EOC will be activated to some level during the course of the threatening weather. A time delineating schedule (TDS) is developed for tropical weather systems affecting Collier County, maintained at the EOC. 2. Level Three, Monitoring Phase a. Once a tropical system directly threatens Florida, a series of activities occur consisting of conference calls, frequent public service announcements, etc. b. All governmental agencies should be reviewing their plans, stockpiling supplies, "topping off' their vehicles, etc. c. Office of Management & Budget will secure a "Project Number" for all disaster activities. 3. Level Two, Partial Activation a. For a tropical system directly affecting Collier County, this phase will be a short-lived transitory period because full activation will occur during completion of departmental TDS. Preparedness actions will be accelerated and emergency coordinating officers (ECOs) and other jurisdictional liaison officers will be establishing operations in the EOC. b. Emergency Management will be coordinating requirements to open shelters with ESFs 6, 14 and 16. c. Communication & Community Relations Department will activate ESF- 14 in the EOC. d. All governmental agencies will disperse their equipment out of harms way, dispatch liaisons to the EOC and complete TDS. 4. Level One, Full Activation a. Between 48 and 36 hours before the CPA, evacuation decisions will be made. All of Collier County Government will be operating from the EOC. This phase will continue through the threat period into the beginning portion of Recovery operations, not going beyond two weeks.

FORWARD The communities of Collier County, Florida, like all communities in the state, are vulnerable to a terrorist or cyberterrorist attack. A terrorist attack could involve the use of a "weapon of mass destruction (WMD)" that would threaten lives, property, and environmental resources through physical destruction by explosions and resulting fires, and/or by contamination with chemical, biological, and/or radiological materials. A cyberterrorist attack could destroy or significantly disrupt vital computer networks, communications systems, and/or Internet services, interfering with provision of critical community services and thereby causing substantial human and economic impacts. The first responders in an actual or suspected terrorist event will be from local emergency services agencies and organizations. For this reason, Collier County and its cooperating municipalities have established and will maintain a comprehensive program to prepare for, respond to and manage the impacts of terrorist and cyberterrorist events. The program provides for: . Continuing assessment of the community's vulnerability to terrorism, . Planning and training to prepare for and respond to such events, . Pre-deployment of specialized response capabilities, where needed, and . Establishing the operational concepts to be utilized to manage an actual or suspected event. If needed, state and/or Federal assistance will be mobilized to support the local command structure. Collier County's terrorism incident response program relies on the authorities, operational concepts, organizational responsibilities, and resources available through the County's Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP). For this reason, this document is an annex to the CEMP, and supplements the CEMP by defining the special program characteristics and response operations that may be necessary to manage the consequences of a terrorist or cyberterrorist incident occurring or affecting the county. :Ihn 'loF3 Annex B page- 2 II. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Collier County Terrorism Incident Response Annex establishes the operational concepts to be used by local law enforcement, fire/rescue, and health and medical services organizations to guide and manage their response to terrorist incidents involving chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, or explosive (CBRNE) agents. Additionally, this document provides for local agency participation of the escalation of the response to the incident to include state and Federal response organizations. The annex provides the specialized guidance needed by response and support agencies in the event of a terrorist act occurring in or impacting Collier County. It identifies the current situation in Collier County regarding its vulnerability to a terrorist attack and how the local response agencies and organizations would respond to such an event. The emphasis of the annex is to guide the specialized operations conducted by the Emergency Support Functions (ESFs) established by the Collier County CEMP, and it is not intended to replace the field operations guides currently used by first responders. The Collier County Terrorism Incident Response Annex has been developed to be consistent with the operational concepts and organizational structure used in the Terrorism Incident Response Annex of the State of Florida Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. It is also consistent with the concepts and structure to be used by Federal agencies responding to a terrorist event in Collier County. :r-b'n 1~3 Annex B Page- 3 III.

INTRODUCTION This annex to the Collier County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan guides the actions of local response agencies and organizations to incidents known or suspected to be terrorist attacks. Terrorist incidents involving chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or explosive materials (CBRNE) and cyber terrorism are considered technologically hazardous incidents by nature. Incidents that are believed to be a terrorist act will be treated as both a crime scene and as a hazardous materials incident with additional complicating factors, until additional information indicates otherwise. Regardless of the mechanism or motive behind the incident, this annex is focused on actions to reduce the impact of the event efficiently and safely. All responders will follow the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and the safety guidelines established by their agencies and/or at the scene of the incident by the incident commander. Due to the highly destructive and technical nature of cyber and CBRNE terrorist incidents, special technical expertise, training, and equipment are required to provide a public safety, health, and medical services response in an extremely time-critical manner. Depending on the characteristics of the incident, this may exceed the capabilities and resources of Collier County response organizations. In anticipation of such circumstances, the State of Florida has established Regional Domestic Security Task Forces (RDSTF) and the Florida Incident Field Operations Guide (FOG) that would be accessed by Collier County response organizations when necessary. The FOG is a compact reference document designed to be transported into the field by responders. It addresses each response agency and follows the Incident Command System. This annex guides the actions of Collier County response organizations when managing the impacts of a terrorist event with their own resources or when it is necessary to request assistance through the RDSTF. The RDSTF strategic concept has two major tenets. First, to assist local government agencies and key private sector assets to gain the additional necessary capability and expertise to effectively and appropriately respond in a coordinated manner to a local terrorist incident. Second, to significantly improve area capability to rapidly augment local governments in responding to a major terrorist incident. Building enhanced area capability through the RDSTF is an on-going process that includes the following key activities: 1) Analysis of potential threats and potential threat elements (PTE), 2) Building and maintaining communication links between agencies, 3) Prevention of terrorist incidents, 4) Planning, training, and exercises, 5) Developing pharmaceutical and equipment caches, 6) Developing an information management operation system for first responders, 7) Identifying local laboratory support, 8) Information sharing, through organizations such as InfraGard, and 9) Enhancing existing mutual aid agreements. 10) Developing and supporting regional response assets. The remaining sections of this annex describe the characteristics of the approach to be utilized by Collier County to implement the specialized functions necessary when -::[bn J~ Annex B page- 9 responding to a terrorist incident, including utilization of the RDSTF. General response operations necessary to prevent or mitigate the consequences of a terrorist event are established in Collier County's Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. ~ 1&:P3 Annex B page- 10 V. SITUATION In late 2003, Collier County and its municipalities conducted an assessment of the current situation with regard to the potential for a terrorist event and the capabilities of local agencies to conduct initial response operations. This assessment was done in accord with State and Federal guidance, and, for confidentiality reasons, the results are only summarized here to define a framework for the operational concepts incorporated into the Annex. The results of the assessment indicate that there are several facilities and systems in Collier County that could become the targets for a terrorist attack, and that there have been numerous incidents in the county that can be considered terrorist-related or are hoaxes threatening terrorist acts, such as bomb scares. In addition, the assessment indicated there are a small number of potential threat elements (PTE) that are locally based organizations or individuals considered by law enforcement agencies as potential perpetrators of future terrorist incidents. The assessment also indicated that the level of training of county and municipal response organizations in operations relevant to terrorist incidents is limited. The equipment resources of these agencies are similarly limited at the current time. Therefore, the situation is that the local response agencies of Collier County will need to focus on the prevention and containment of a CBRNE incident until additional resources and expertise can be provided by response personnel from mutual aid organizations and the RDSTF, as well as other State and Federal personnel. Background information regarding a range of agents that could be involved in a terrorist attack in Collier County is provided in Appendix One to this annex. I-b-n l~F3 Annex B page- 11 VI. ASSUMPTIONS Development of the Collier County Terrorism Incident Response Annex has required that certain assumptions be utilized regarding the characteristics of a terrorist incident in the county. These are the following: a. The Terrorism Annex could be activated based solely on a Homeland Security Advisory color change, without any specific threat information for Collier County. b. Public safety agencies of Collier County and its municipalities will be the '1irst responders" to the scene of a terrorist incident or the locations in the county where the impacts of the event are experienced. c. A terrorist incident may be made readily apparent to the responding organizations by the characteristics of the impacts or a declaration on the part of the perpetrators, or may be very difficult to initially detect and identify because of uncertainty as to the cause or extent of the situation. d. The resources and/or expertise of local agencies in Collier County could quickly be depleted by a response to a major terrorist incident and its consequences. Extensive use of Area, State, and Federal resources and intrastate mutual aid agreements must therefore be anticipated. e. Specialized resources, as well as those normally utilized in disaster situations, will be needed to support the response to a terrorist incident. Such resources may not be located in Collier County, the FDLE Region or in the State of Florida. f. The Florida Department of Health will have a minimum of three Biosafety Level 3 laboratories available for analytical services to assist in the response to a terrorist event in Florida. g. Resources from local, state, and federal agencies, as well as from private organizations, will be made available on a timely basis upon request. h. All state and local response agencies and organizations will establish and participate in a unified command structure at or near the scene, and the Emergency Operations Center of Collier County will be activated and staffed (if indicated by the size or scope of the incident). i. Federal agencies with statutory authority for response to a terrorist incident, or for the geographic location in which it occurs or has impacted, will participate in and cooperate with the unified command structure established by response organizations from Collier County or the involved municipality. j. A terrorist event will result in the timely activation of the Collier County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan, as well as those emergency plans and procedures of the involved municipalities. When needed, the Florida Division of Emergency Management (OEM) will activate the State Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP), the Department of Homeland Security will activate the National Response Plan (NRP), and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) will activate the Federal Response Plan (FRP). k. Responding agencies of Collier County and its municipalities will have the supportive plans and procedures, as well as appropriately trained and equipped personnel, that may be needed for the general response operations related to management of the terrorist incident. This annex assumes the resources and procedures for such related operations as hazardous material response, mass casualty incident management, law enforcement, search and rescue, and others will be in place to be utilized when needed during a terrorist incident. I. For terrorist events involving weapons of mass destruction, there may be a large number of casualties. Injured or ill victims will require specialized medical treatment, :r -b'h \lL:F3 Annex B Page- 12 potentially including decontamination and medical facilities and may require establishing temporary medical operations in the field. Fatally injured victims may be numerous and their bodies contaminated or infectious. Special mortuary arrangements are likely to be necessary. m. Terrorist incidents may involve damage or disruption to computer systems, telecommunications networks, or Internet systems; disturbance to vital community networks for utilities, transportation, or communication; and/or could endanger the health and safety of the population at risk, interrupt emergency response operations, and result in substantial economic losses. n. There will be very extensive media interest in a terrorist event and media management operations will require resources beyond those needed for other types of emergency management operations. o. The Collier County Sheriff's Office and municipal police departments are or will be subscribers to the Secure Florida Alert System (when available) and are on the FBI Law Enforcement Online (LEO) Network. p. Collier County and its municipal jurisdictions have taken proper precautions such as implementing 'iirewalls" and password access to their computer systems and have implemented the same reporting mechanism that was used during Y2K for cyber incidents. q. County and municipal jurisdictions have the capability to implement response and recovery operations for computer networks and databases disrupted by a cyberterrorist incident. r. The 44'h WMD Civil Support Team (FNG) is available 24 X 7 for deployment to actual/suspected WMD events in a local jurisdiction. Travel time to Collier County from approval of the request of the State is approximately six hours. s. Once notified of a suspected terrorist incident, the State Warning Point will make notifications specifically to the Florida Division of Law Enforcement (FDLE) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). t. It is possible that the use of a weapon of mass destruction, such as a biological agent, could occur resulting in widespread illness, fatalities, or environmental contamination without a readily defined incident scene. In this case emergency operations at the local level would be coordinated through the local emergency operations center. Response operations such as mass casualty management, environmental decontamination, and public information would be provided on a region-wide basis, with coordination being done through the RDSTF and the State Emergency Operations Center. The State EOC and Department of Health will conduct cross regional coordination. Collier County EOC will remain operational if the State or Regional EOC is activated for a local or regional event. u. Receipt & distribution of Strategic National Stockpile will be in concert with current Department of Health policies. Health policies will be coordinated with the Collier County Emergency Management Department and the EOC. These assumptions form the framework within which the operational concepts of the Collier County Terrorism Incident Response Annex have been established. "):-IGn lloF~ Annex B Page- 13 VII. PURPOSE The Terrorist Incident Response Annex to the Collier County CEMP defines the scope of a terrorist incident response operation conducted by county and/or municipal agencies. The annex establishes the policies, programs, and procedures that will be utilized by the county and municipal agencies to prepare for, respond to, and recover from a threatened or actual emergency resulting from a terrorist act. It also defines the roles of the local agencies and organizations in the development, implementation, and maintenance of the annex. :r-lon 1~3 Annex B Page- 14 VIII. SCOPE The scope of this annex is to guide the special or unique actions necessary to effectively and safely manage the local emergency response operations conducted by Collier County agencies. For other operations not necessarily unique to terrorist events, the Collier County CEMP and agency emergency plans and procedures would be utilized. During the first response to a known or suspected terrorist event, the following points are the main objectives for Collier County's operations: 1. Protect the lives and safety of the citizens and first responders; 2. Ensure notifications to hospitals to assess their readiness; 3. Isolate, contain, and/or limit the spread of any released nuclear, biological, chemical, incendiary, or explosive devices, or the continuing spread of cyberterrorist agents; 4. Identify the type of agenVdevices used; 5. Identify and establish control zones for the suspected agent used; 6. Ensure emergency responders properly follow protocol and have appropriate protective gear; 7. Identify the most appropriate decontamination and/or treatment for victims; 8. Establish victim services; 9. Notify emergency personnel, including medical facilities, of dangers and anticipated casualties and proper measures to be followed; 10. Notify appropriate State and Federal agencies; 11. Provide accurate and timely public information; 12. Preserve as much evidence as possible to aid in the investigation process; 13. Protect critical infrastructure; 14. Manage fatalities and the protection of remains; 15. Protect property and environment; 16. Securing resources through the Collier County EOC, Regional Domestic Security Task Force, State of Florida and the Federal Government. This annex also defines the role of the agencies and organizations of Collier County and its municipalities in accessing and securing resources through the RDSTF, the State of Florida and the Federal government. T-b'n t~ Annex B Page- 15 IX. AUTHORITIES The authority for the development, implementation and maintenance of this annex is derived from the authority of the Florida Statutes, Section 252.38(1). ::[by, IloFg Annex B page- 16 X. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS A. Overview The Collier County Terrorism Incident Response Annex incorporates the following fundamental operational concepts: o Actions will be taken in accord in this annex during non-emergency times to prepare the county and municipal agencies and organizations for a more timely and effective response to terrorist incidents o There will be a "tiered" field response to a known or suspected terrorist event, utilizing three levels of escalating resource commitment, as follows: ~ Response and Command ~ Structure and Support ~ Unified Command o The responding agencies will utilize existing agency procedures for control of field operations within the organizational structure established by the National Incident Management System (NIMS) o When necessary, the Collier County Emergency Operations Center will be activated as the Multi-Agency Coordination Center to provide additional support to responding field operations, hospitals and other facilities involved in management of the incident and care of its victims. Support operations from the EOC will be conducted by the designated Emergency Support Functions (ESFs) in accord with the Collier County CEMP and the provisions of this annex. o For a major terrorist event, Collier County will anticipate requesting and receiving assistance through the RDSTF and the Statewide Mutual Aid Agreement, as well as from State and Federal agencies, using the request form found in Appendix 4. B. Detection, Notification and Classification of a Terrorist Event (1) Detection Detection of an actual, suspected or threatened terrorist or cyberterrorist incident may occur through the following types of mechanisms: o Law enforcement intelligence efforts, o Warnings or announcements by the perpetrators, o The characteristics of the event, such as an explosion or chemical recognition, o Witness accounts, o The medical or physical symptoms of victims, o Laboratory results from samples taken at the scene or from victims bodies, o Monitoring of a community's morbidity and mortality on a routine basis, and o Syndromatic Surveillance. o Unexplained disruption or failure of a computer network, telecommunications system or I nternet service In many cases, such detection most likely would be by county or municipal first responding units. Information regarding the event and its consequences would then be reported from the scene to the County Warning Point. T-bYt 1lt;F3 Annex B page- 17 Should detection of the event be from a telephone call or other communication threatening a terrorist action or declaring that one has occurred, the County Warning Point will utilize existing procedures to initiate an investigation and make appropriate notifications, as indicated below. Detection of a suspected terrorist event may be from a source other than the first arriving unit or a communicated threat or declaration, such as from monitoring of morbidity or mortality statistics in the county, reports from hospital emergency departments, laboratory results from incident victims or environmental sampling, etc. In such cases, the facility or individual recognizing the indications of a terrorist event would notify the County Warning Point, and follow-up notification would be made by the County Warning Point to the State Warning Point. Regardless of the method of detection of a known or suspected terrorist event, within the meaning of this annex, the Collier County Warning Point will be notified accordingly. (2) Notification Upon receipt of notification that: ~ The Homeland Security Advisory color changes from Yellow to Orange, the State Warning Point will notify the County Warning Point and the Emergency Operations Center. The EOC will disseminate this change and recommended protective actions to "subscribers" lists and "blastfax" to Public Safety and the Media. ~ The Homeland Security Advisory System color changes from Orange to Red, the State Warning Point will contact the County Warning Point and the EOC. During non-duty hours, the County Warning Point will notify the Emergency Management Director who, in turn, will disseminate this change and recommended protective actions to the "subscribers" lists and "blastfax" to all lists. The Emergency Management Director will schedule a meeting to brief County senior staff and ESF representatives on the current situation and will consider activating the EOC and Collier Information Center (CIC). ~ A known or suspected terrorist event has occurred, is occurring or may occur, the On-Duty Communications Supervisor of the County Warning Point will notify the State Warning Point, as well as county and municipal agencies in accord with existing procedures. Regardless of the source of the detection of a known, suspected or threatened terrorist event, pursuant to this annex, under all circumstances, the County Warning Point will immediately notify State Warning Point (SWP) that a terrorist incident may have occurred or has been threatened. The County Warning Point shall immediately notify the Emergency Management Director, or his designee, following the notification to the SWP. (3) Classification (based on the National System) Every known, suspected or threatened terrorist event occurring in Collier County or its municipalities will be classified in a manner consistent with Federal policy. The Collier County Warning Point will be informed of the classification and will, in turn, notify the incident commander and the County EOC, if activated. ~I~ Annex B page- 18 As for in this annex, each threat level provides for an escalating range of actions that will be implemented concurrently for crisis and consequence management. Specific actions will take place, which are synchronized to each threat level, ensuring that all agencies are operating jointly with consistent executed plans. Federal and State government will notify and coordinate with local governments, as necessary. These threat levels are described below: HOMELAND SECURITY ADVISORY SYSTEM (HSAS) <Low> Green - Low risk of terrorist attacks < Guarded> Blue - General risk of terrorist attacks < Elevated> Yellow - Significant risk of terrorist attacks Received threats do not warrant actions beyond normal liaison notifications or placing assets or resources on a heightened alert (agencies are operating under normal day-to-day conditions). <High> Orange - High risk of terrorist attacks Intelligence or an articulated threat indicates a potential for a terrorist incident. However, this threat has not yet been assessed as credible. <Severe> Red - Severe risk of terrorist attacks A threat assessment indicates that the potential threat is credible, and confirms the involvement of a weapon of mass destruction in the developing terrorist incident. Intelligence will vary with each threat, and will impact the level of the response. At this threat level, the situation requires the tailoring of response actions to use resources needed to anticipate, prevent, and/or resolve the crisis. The crisis management response will focus on law enforcement actions taken in the interest of public safety and welfare and is predominantly concerned with preventing and resolving the threat. The consequence management response will focus on contingency planning and pre- positioning of tailored resources, as required. The threat increases in significance when the presence of an explosive device or weapon of mass destruction capable of causing a significant destructive event, prior to actual injury or loss, is confirmed or when intelligence and circumstances indicate a high probability that a device exists. In this case, the threat has developed into a weapon of mass destruction terrorist situation requiring an immediate process to identify, acquire, and plan the use of State and federal resources to augment state and local authorities in lessening or averting the potential consequence of a terrorist use or employment of a weapon of mass destruction. The Department of Homeland Security, when warranted by conditions, may change the classification at any time. The State Warning Point will then notify or confirm notification of the change through the County Warning Point to local incident commander, the unified command, FDLE and the FBI. 'Lhtn lkF3 Annex B Page- 19 The incident commander for Collier County or the impacted municipality will also notify the County Warning Point of one of the following two situations: . State and/or Federal resources are requested to support local operations, or . Local capabilities are deemed to be adequate for local crisis and consequence management response operations. The County Warning Point will then notify the State Warning Point accordingly. If the actual or potential consequences of the incident are such that county, State and Federal resources and assistance are likely to be needed, these will be requested by the unified command through the county Emergency Operations Center in accordance with provisions of the Collier County CEMP. C. Response Operations Response operations covered by this annex involve the activation of the RDSTF because the event is known or suspected to be a terrorist event. The RDSTF will respond and conduct its operations based on the operating guidelines within the State's Field Operations Guide (FOG) and the Multi- Agency Coordinating (MAC) Group. (1) Response Policies The county's response to a known, suspected or threatened terrorist event will be in accordance with established policies for emergency response operations for other types of hazards, as defined within the Collier County CEMP, with the following additions: . There will be unique requirements to protect the safety of response personnel during an event that involves the use of a weapon of mass destruction. Safety of response personnel will be the highest priority. . County and/or municipal response personnel will assume the presence of secondary explosive, chemical, biological or radiological devices at or near the scene and conduct subsequent operations accordingly until the absence of secondary devices is known, . Prior to the use of a weapon of mass destruction, tactical operations will emphasize crisis management; following the use of a weapon of mass destruction, tactical operations will emphasize consequence management. . The unified command will lead the county's response to crisis and consequence management operations. . The EM Director may at his discretion dispatch or authorize county vehicles or equipment to be taken home with employees after hours and weekends to ensure a timely response to emergency situations. . Management of response operations will be guided by the following priorities: -:I-fLm j~ Annex B Page- 20 . Preserving life or minimizing risk to health, . Preventing a threatened act from being carried out or an existing terrorist act from being expanded or aggravated, . Locating, accessing, rendering safe, controlling, containing, recovering and disposing of a weapon of mass destruction, . Rescuing, decontaminating, transporting and treating victims, . Releasing emergency public information that ensures adequate and accurate communications with the public, . Restoring essential services and mitigating suffering, . Apprehending and successfully prosecuting perpetrators, and . Conducting site restoration. (2) Mobilization and activation of resources Depending on the characteristics of the terrorist incident, response agencies of Collier County or the impacted municipality will be mobilized in accord with a tiered response, sequences as follows and using the guidelines given: RESPONSE AND COMMAND Their mission of the local first responders is: 1) Assess the scene 2) Mitigate hazards 3) Triage, treat, and transport patients 4) Set-up a decontamination corridor 5) Begin decontamination (if appropriate) 6) Initiate use of the Incident Management System To accomplish these objectives, the County's fire/rescue agencies, EMS and law enforcement units will be dispatched to the scene. A unified command structure will be established as soon as possible to meet the dynamics of the terrorist event. Law Enforcement Fire ealth Arlmini~tr::ltivA/FinRnr. :r:~ I~ Annex B Page- 21 The initial fire/rescue dispatch will include a hazardous materials response team ("HazMat Team"), a rescue truck, an engine company, an aerial company, and a supervisor. The joint response is to ensure that self-sufficient entry, extrication, decontamination, and rescue capability is available immediately on the scene. The first arriving HazMat officer will be the officer in charge until relieved as per standard incident command procedures. The mission of the HazMat Teams will be to: 1) Establish command 2) Identify the perimeter 3) Isolate and deny entry 4) Attempt to identify the product involved 5) Initiate action plan 6) Threat assessment 7) Resource assessment 8) Emergency decontamination 9) Escalate the fire/rescue response, if appropriate The initial EMS dispatch may consist of a special operations response; an ALS Special Operations Response Team (SORT) transport unit, an ALS medical surveillance/rehab unit, an ALS transport unit and the Special Operations Deputy Chief or designee. This response is to ensure that self-sufficient entry, BLS/ALS treatment and transport, medical surveillance, rehabilitation assistance, decontamination and rescue capability is available on scene. The Special Operations Deputy Chief will be the officer in charge of medical treatment and medical surveillance of the event as per standard unified incident command procedures. The mission of the EMS special operations response will be to: 1. Participate in the unified command 2. Identify product medical treatment considerations 3. Identify medical surveillance considerations 4. Initiate action plan 5. Threat assessment 6. Risk assessment 7. Resource assessment 8. Cut-Out Rescue - Non-Ambulatory Treatment (CORNAT) 9. Medical/technical decontamination 10. Hazardous environment triage or medical treatment 11. Escalate the EMS response, if appropriate The responsibilities of the initial law enforcement dispatch are to: 1) Enforce the perimeters and isolate the area 2) Provide security 3) Identify and contain the criminal threat 4) Escalate the law enforcement response, if appropriate STRUCTURE AND SUPPORT :I'-ltrn !loF3 Annex B Page- 22 This tier of response is designed to provide structure and support to the initial dispatch. The structure and support response may originate in one of two different ways. Each will expand the Incident Management System (IMS) structure by dispatching units: 1) As part of the original dispatch due to the nature and/or gravity of the incident; or 2) At the request of initially responding forces on the scene. In general, this tier of response will involve mobilization of fire/rescue, EMS and law enforcement command personnel, as well as notification and activation of public health and hospital emergency department personnel. The Collier County Medical Examiner's Office will also be notified if fatalities have occurred or are likely to occur as a result of the incident. The responding command personnel will: 1) Coordinate operations for HazMat Teams, Law Enforcement" EMS and other responders. 2) Provide immediate scene situation reports to the EM director or designee 3) Provide resource status reports and anticipated needs to the EM director 4) Make timely request for the Mobile Command Vehicle in support of an on-site communications and coordination function. The Hospital Emergency Departments, the EMS Department and Collier County Health Department will: 1) Coordinate issues in assessment of the medical and health issues involved in the incident. 2) Plan and implement actions for emergency department operations and a public health response. UNIFIED COMMAND The tier of the response involves establishing an integrated unified command for crisis and consequence management. Depending on the characteristics of the incident, the unified command must be prepared to encompass the following: 1) County and municipal Fire/Rescue, EMS, DoH, Emergency Management, Pia and HazMat Teams 2) County and municipal law enforcement operations 3) State and local resources/agencies 4) Federal agencies through the FBI, FEMA and Department of Homeland Security. In addition, specialists will be included as part of this tier of response to facilitate and process available data to refine threat assessment. Their actions are likely to include: 1) Evidence collection 2) Cyber terrorism investigation 3) Locating and rendering safe primary and secondary devices 4) Providing and supervising additional medical personnel -:I:1cnI lleP'3 Annex B page- 23 The designated Collier County Public Information Officer (PIO) will also be dispatched as specialist supporting this tier of response. The mission of the County PIO will be to: 1) Process information from, and then back through, the unified command before it is disseminated to the media. 2) Facilitate establishing the Joint Information Center (JIC) by state and Federal PIOs and represent county and municipal interests in the JIC. 3) Coordinate information to be released to the public with the EOC and EM director. Also, provide support personnel to the EOC for media information management and the CIC, as needed. (3) Mutual Aid For major terrorist events, Collier County or the impacted municipality will request assistance from mutual aid organizations pursuant to normal procedures. When required, the Regional Domestic Security Response Force will be requested through the State Warning Point, via Collier Emergency Management office using the form found in Appendix 4. Through the Collier County Warning Point, the county may also access statewide fire and law enforcement mutual aid available through the Florida Fire Chiefs' Association and the Florida Sheriffs' Association, respectively. The County Warning Point and/or Emergency Operations Center, through the State Emergency Operations Center and/or Warning Point, may also request activation of the District Response Team (DRT), Disaster Medical Assistance Team (DMAT) or Disaster Mortuary Response Team (DMORT) activation to support local operations. (4) Scene Management Management of the scene of a known, suspected or threatened terrorist incident will be in accordance with established departmental procedures for response to an incident involving a hazardous material, explosive device, and/or other situation dangerous to responders, as well as a situation potentially involving mass casualties. Implementation of standard procedures for scene management for a terrorist incident will include the following additional considerations: . The potential presence of secondary devices, . The treatment of the scene as a crime scene, . The potential for contamination that is not visible or is difficult to detect, as well as the need for management of contaminated victims, . The spatial extent of chemical, biological or radiological contamination from a weapon of mass destruction, and controlling continued, inadvertent spread of the agent. . The need for larger and better equipped command and staging facilities, . Immediate capability for media management and public information, and . Recognition of the potential for rapid public protection in adjacent and/or downwind areas. (5) Public Protection :T-brl IloF3 Annex B Page- 24 Depending on the characteristics of the agent, the actual or potential use of a chemical, biological, or radiological weapon of mass destruction is likely to necessitate immediate action to protect the surrounding public and/or populated areas adjacent to and downwind of the point(s) of release. Because of similarities in dispersion of a chemical, biological, or radiological weapon of mass destruction, emergency operations by the County for public protection will be those utilized for a major hazardous materials incident involving an explosive material and/or one that is an inhalation hazard. Such operations would be conducted in accordance with the county's established hazardous materials response procedures for implementing evacuation and/or sheltering-in-place in various locations within the county. When feasible, notification to the at-risk population will be made by the Collier County Sheriff's Office using the "Code Red" system. If the size of the at-risk population is too great and/or the threat is imminent, the Emergency Management Office/County Warning Point will initiate activation of the Emergency Alerting System. In the face of uncertainty regarding a known, suspected or threatened characteristics or the likelihood of dangerous or contaminating levels of agent being dispersed beyond the incident scene, the county will instruct all members of the population to initially shelter-in- place. When additional information is available and/or decisions regarding the most appropriate protective action can be made and implemented, this emergency instruction can be continued, modified by an evacuation and/or terminated. (6) Emergency Plan Activation As indicated by the characteristics of the incident and/or its actual or potential consequences, Collier County or the impacted municipality, if applicable, will activate its Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan, and accordingly activate its Emergency Operations Center. Timing of the county's activation will be designed, to the extent feasible, to anticipate changes in the incident classification level so that county emergency operations can be expanded in a timely manner. Suggested EOC activation levels are as follows: . Level 3 activation when the event is classified as a "Low, Guarded or Elevated" Threat . Level 2 or Level 1 activation when the event is classified as a "High or Severe Threat," depending on the potential consequences of the event, and . Levell activation when the event is classified as a "WMD event." Emergency actions for management of the actual or potential consequences of an event will be conducted for each activation level as specified in the Collier County CEMP. (7) Activation of Other Facilities In order to meet the needs of the victims, responders, and the media in a terrorist event, the following facilities are likely to be needed: Incident Command Post: A command post will be established at or near the scene of the terrorist incident during Tier II of the response operation. The Command Post will be established by the agency with jurisdiction. Whether a mobile or fixed structure is used as a 'T-h:m J~ Annex B Page- 25 command post, the Incident Commander is to designate and/or activate a facility that will have adequate space and services if the incident escalates and mutual aid, state or Federal agencies are required to join the unified command. All Collier County Emergency Support Functions will, as necessary and when activated, provide resource and logistical support to Command Post personnel and operations. Casualtv Collection Point: In the event that the number and conditions of victims warrant, the Collier County EMS, Sheriff's Office and/or the municipal police department with jurisdiction will establish a "Casualty Collection Point." This may be a building, mobile unit or designated area closely associated with a decontamination center, if the characteristics of the incident require such operations for casualties. The unified command will ensure that appropriate decontamination of individuals has occurred prior to their relocation to the casualty collection point. This facility will be used to provide immediately needed services for the victims, such as first aid, contact with family members, medical observation, and arrangements for transportation to home or a medical facility. The law enforcement personnel staffing the collection point will ensure that the names, addresses and other information and statements from the victims are taken prior to release of the individual from the scene. Collier County Emergency Support Functions #6 and #8, when activated, will provide assistance and support for this operation. Victim and Familv Assistance Center Large terrorist events, with numerous casualties, will necessitate providing information and immediate services for family members of victims during search and rescue operations, decontamination, medical treatment, quarantine and witness debriefing. In the event that family members of victims converge on the scene, and the operation is likely to be prolonged, the Collier County ESFs #6 will establish a "Family Assistance Center." County ESFs #8, #14 and #16 will assist with this operation. ESF #6 will secure a facility to serve as a location to provide information, assistance and counseling to family members, and to work with the unified command and the involved medical facilities to ensure the flow of timely and accurate information to family members. This will also be a center to connect family members with other established community services that may be needed after the event. Emeraencv News Center / Joint Information Center A major terrorist-related event will require operations and resources to be dedicated to media management, and these operations are likely to exceed those necessary for another type of emergency. The designated Collier County Public Information Officer in charge will establish an Emergency News Center, and will activate such a center as soon as it is apparent that the Unified Command's PIO function cannot manage media interest without interference to on-scene operations. If a PIO from an impacted municipality is available, the 'I~ IleF~ Annex B Page- 26 municipal Pia will be requested to cooperate with establishing and staffing the Emergency News Center. The Emergency News Center may be either an indoor or outdoor facility established at a sufficient distance from the scene to prevent any interference with emergency response operations. The County's Pia will work with the unified command's Pia function to ensure an adequate flow of timely information from the command post to the Emergency News Center. The Pia will utilize available mechanisms for the delivery of emergency public information from the Emergency News Center, including but not limited to: 1) The Emergency Alert System (EAS) when a sudden event requires immediate contact with the general public. The EAS will be activated with the assistance of Collier County Emergency Management and the County Warning Point. 2) Issuance of concise information releases to media. These releases will be prepared and approved with the assistance of the Pia function of the command post and/or the Collier County EOC, if activated. 3) Providing information directly to the media present, including the broadcast media. The Pia may arrange for command staff to support such interviews on a schedule that will not interfere with response operations. In the event that state and Federal agencies are mobilized to Collier County for the terrorist incident response, state and Federal PIOs will establish a Joint Information Center (JIG). The County's Pia will assist with securing a suitable mobile or fixed structure for this purpose, and provide assistance as possible to equip the JIC, and will ensure that county Pia representatives are included in the staffing and operations of the JIC. Other actions taken by the Collier County Pia from an Emergency News Center and/or the JIC will be in accord with the Collier County CEMP. (8) Management of Victims Release of a weapon of mass destruction within Collier County could result in widespread structural damage, environmental contamination, and injured and/or displaced victims. The unified command would respond to such circumstances by implementing consequence management operations pursuant to the Collier County CEMP. However, the involvement of a weapon of mass destruction may require, depending on the characteristics of the event, that emergency operations for the management of victims include the following special efforts: . Rapid triage and decontamination of large numbers of victims prior to their movement to a shelter or medical facility, . Environmental monitoring for the presence of chemical, biological or radiological contaminants, · Decontamination or disinfecting operations at the scene, at medical facilities and at mass care shelters, "Xtth 1lcF3 Annex B Page- 27 . Use of appropriate personal protective equipment by response personnel, . Adjustment of triage techniques to account for the health effect of the contaminant, amount/route of exposure or contamination. . Accommodation of "worried-well" and prevention of cross-contamination or contaminate migration. . Proper handling and safe disposal of contaminated clothing, belongings, etc. and . Continued monitoring of injured or sickened victims, as well as displaced persons and emergency workers, for indications of contamination or infection. To facilitate management of contaminated or injured victims, Appendix Two to this annex provides guidance on the various steps that may be necessary for victims of a WMD event. The following topics are addressed in Appendix Two: . Removal of casualties/fatalities . Decontamination of casualties . Triage of casualties . Treatment of casualties . Isolation and quarantining of the injured and exposed . Transport of victims . Stocks of available antidotes (9) Preservation of Crime Scene Health and Human safety issues will take precedence over evidence collection. However, responders should try to minimize the amount of disruption to the scene. If the event is determined to be a possible terrorist act, evidence collection will be essential. The Collier County Sheriff's Office and/or the responding municipal police department will secure the crime scene, and notify the FDLE and the FBI. The FBI will be notified of any potential terrorist-related act, regardless of the number of casualties. The FBI response may include such field office resources as the WMD Coordinator, SWAT, HAZMAT-trained personnel (like the Hazardous Materials Response Unit or HMRU), Bomb Technicians, and the Evidence Response Team (ERT). Additional FBI resources may be called from outside the local area, as needed. (10) Disposition of the Deceased In the event of a mass casualty incident involving the use of a CBRNE device, decontamination of the deceased will need to be performed. Decontamination of the deceased will occur at or near the scene under the lead of the law enforcement component of the command, to ensure gathering and/or preservation of forensic evidence, as necessary, has occurred prior to decontamination. It is the responsibility of the Incident Commander to determine the agency best suited to perform this function and to supervise the procedure. Decontamination of the deceased will be completed prior to the release of bodies to the Collier County Medical Examiner's Office. Given the type and nature of the device that is used, it is possible that evidence such as projectiles, bomb fragments, and/or chemical compounds could be found on the bodies of the deceased. In all cases, the Medical Examiner's Office will be appraised of this potential, and, to the extent feasible, such remains will be decontaminated, treated or ~ IlPF3 Annex B Page- 28 assessed at the scene prior to release of the body to the Medical Examiner. Further, the FBI Evidence Response Team may place evidence collection experts and equipment on the scene and/or at the Medical Examiner's Office where the bodies are taken for autopsy. In the event that the FBI is not on the scene and will not be responding, normal evidence gathering protocols will be implemented. In the absence of the FBI, the responsibility for crime scene preservation and evidence will belong to the Collier County Sheriff's Office or the municipal police department with jurisdiction. If the incident involves a biological agent, the Medical Examiner's Office will work with experts from the Collier County Health Department to determine the best way to deal with the disposition of the deceased. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) may also be involved, depending on the circumstances. In an event where the Collier County Medical Examiner's Office becomes overwhelmed, assistance would be requested of the medical examiners from adjacent counties, pursuant to existing mutual aid agreements. In addition, should it still become necessary, the Collier County Medical Examiner could request the Florida Medical Examiner's Commission (within FDLE) to activate the Disaster Mortuary Operational Response Team (D-MORT). The incident must be declared a federal emergency in order to activate this resource. D-MORT provides assistance to local agencies in terms of morgue equipment, personnel and total mortuary care (such as autopsies, preparations, caskets, and funeral arrangements). (11) Response Termination and Demobilization Termination and demobilization of a county or municipal response to a terrorism incident will be under the direction of the unified command. However, if the incident has resulted in activation of state and Federal response agencies, termination and demobilization of the local emergency response operations will be with the concurrence of the Federal On- Scene Commander. In all cases, county operations will be continued until termination of Federal and State operations, and may continue beyond the demobilization of Federal and/or State personnel at the scene if deemed necessary by the county's unified command. Upon receipt of Federal authorization and/or concurrence for response termination and demobilization, the county and/or municipality's unified command will demobilize operations using established procedures. Depending on the circumstances of the terrorist incident, however, additional efforts by those normally employed for a disaster event may be warranted, including but not limited to the following: · Assuring complete and adequate decontamination of response equipment and materials, . Providing for additional emergency worker critical incident stress debriefings, . Obtaining expanded mental health counseling services for the disaster victims and their families, · Providing continuing public information regarding the medical, health or psychological impacts of the event and the agent used, . Providing for medical monitoring of all exposed emergency workers and members of the public, . Providing for continuing environmental monitoring for contaminants, ~l~ Annex B Page- 29 . Providing for safe and proper disposal of contaminated response materials, equipment and debris, . Supporting subsequent criminal investigation efforts, and . Documenting the event in detail, evaluating the response, and making adjustments to this annex and any implementing procedures as indicated. Other procedures implemented by the county or municipalities for assisting disaster victims, restoring services, seeking Federal disaster assistance, documenting expenditures, etc. will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of the Collier County CEMP. :c.jay'l I~ Annex B Page- 30 XI. ORGANIZATIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES This section of the Terrorism Incident Response Annex to the Collier County CEMP addresses those responsibilities of county agencies, organizations and officials for the specific program development and implementation functions necessary to manage a terrorist incident. Responsibilities for programs, plans and procedures that are related to management of other types of disaster situations are addressed in the Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. The municipalities within the county are expected to address the responsibilities of its agencies and organizations within their own comprehensive emergency management plans and applicable terrorism incident response annex. If the municipalities have not prepared such documents, it is expected that their response organizations would adhere to the applicable responsibilities as defined in this section. While the focus of this discussion is on the duties of county organizations, the expected roles and responsibilities of other local, State and Federal agencies and organizations are summarized to provide a context for understanding the county's position in the entire response organization. A. Overview For this annex, Collier County and its municipalities have responsibilities appropriate for its capabilities and requirements.

Information derived from Journal of the Ro al Arm Medical Cor s Bombs are the most common weapons of terrorists. Bombs are easy to make from ordinary household materials and can be very effective. A fertilizer bomb blasted the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. When a bomb of this type explodes, it sends a shockwave in all directions and smashes into buildings blocks away. As this shock wave travels, a powerful vacuum forms behind it, sucking in the entire atmosphere that has been displaced by the original shockwave. The surrounding area is smashed a second time by the aftershock. All this takes less than a second. Materials in the way of these shockwaves become high velocity projectiles. Walls move away from the blast and then back toward the blast before finally crumbling. Floors and roofs defy gravity for a split second before collapsing to the ground. This can all be accomplished by the use of common household substances. Most fertilizer bombs, like the Oklahoma City bomb, generate blast waves that can exceed 6800 miles per hour. High-order military explosives, such as C4 and Semtex, can create blast waves almost three times as fast. 1 Owen-Smith MS.

NUCLEARlRADIATION Radiation is defined as high-energy particles or gamma rays that are emitted by an atom as the substance undergoes radioactive decay, which is the process in which a radioactive nucleus emits radiation and changes to a different isotope or element. The types of radiation are in the following forms of energetic particles: . Alpha particles . Beta particles . Photons (gamma rays and X-rays) . Neutrons Particles lose their energy by depositing it in the material they move through, whether that material is air, water, people, or lead. Radiation, regardless of intensity, has the potential to produce harmful effects on human beings, animals, and plant life. Background (natural) radiation poses little threat to our systems. However, serious health consequences can be expected if a person is subjected to large amounts of radiation. The types of radiation and their effects are as follows: I. ALPHA (particulate) radiation particles cannot penetrate the outer layer of skin. They can be stopped by thin layers of light materials (such as a sheet of paper) and pose no direct or external radiation threat. However, they pose a serious health threat if inhaled or ingested. Therefore, a respirator or the use of Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) is recommended. The range in air for alpha particles is 1 to 3 centimeters. 2. BETA (particulate) radiation particles can penetrate skin, but not vital organs (lungs, gastrointestinal tract, heart, etc.) and represent a hazard both internally and externally. Beta radiation can be lethal depending upon the dose and length of time of exposure. It is easily shielded by aluminum. The range in air for beta particles is approximately 10 feet. Initial symptoms are itching and burning of the skin, with later symptoms that include reddening of the skin and more severe changes in pigmentation, hair loss, and sores. 3. GAMMA (energy) and NEUTRON radiation particles can penetrate through the body and represent a hazard both internally and externally. These rays have high energy and a short wavelength. Shielding against gamma radiation requires thick layers of dense materials, such as lead. Gamma and neutron radiation typically ha ve a range in air of several hundred feet.

F3 Inhalation Skin Wound absorption Bone Inhalation Wound absorption Bone Inhalation Skin Gastrointestinal Total Body Inhalation Skin Gastrointestinal Thyroid Inhalation Gastrointestinal Gastro- intestinal The main concern with radiation is that it is an invisible hazard. Unless the responding public safety agency has radiological detection equipment, or the nuclear material at issue is clearly marked and identified, there is a strong chance that the initial identification of a radiological or nuclear hazard will go unnoticed. Although, there is no one piece of equipment available on the market to meet all detection requirements, there are separate detectors for each type of radiation. An additional concern would be the availability of protective clothing and breathing gear, in sufficient quantities, to protect first responders. If first responders are subjected to large amounts of radiation due to major radiation accidents or nuclear attack, they can expect serious consequences to their health. It should be noted that individuals suffering from radiation injuries are NOT radioactive! Of importance is the dose or amount of radiation absorbed over a period of time. There are many terms used to measure the dose of radiation. One is the Roentgen Equivalent Man (rem), which is a unit of absorbed dose that takes into account the relative effectiveness of the radiation involved in causing health effects. Another measurement of the absorbed dose of radiation is known as rad. Sometimes rad measurements are referred to as Gray, which is the equivalent of 100 rad. In this document, health effects are expressed in rad. 3 Adapted from Textbook of Military Medicine Appendix 1 to Annex B 5 :I:"itTn \tcF; I. 50 to 200 rad - Approximately 6 hours after exposure, the individual may have symptoms ranging from none to transient mild headaches. There may be a slight decrease in the ability to conduct normal activities. Less than 5 percent of individuals in the upper part of the exposure range will require hospitalization. Average hospital stay will be 45 to 60 days, with no deaths. 2. 200 to 500 rad - Approximately 4 to 6 hours after exposure, individuals will experience headaches, malaise, nausea, and vomiting. Symptoms are not relieved by antiemetics in the upper exposure range. Individuals can perform routine tasks, but any activity-requiring moderate to heavy exertion will be hampered for 6 to 20 hours. After this period, individuals will appear to recover and enter a latent period of 17 to 21 days. If individuals have received 300 rads or more, they will have large quantities of hair loss between 12 to 18 days after exposure. Following the latent stage, symptoms will retum, requiring 90 percent of the personnel to be hospitalized for 60 to 90 days. Probably less than 5 percent of those at the lower dose range will die, the percentage increasing toward the upper end of the dose range. 3. 500 to 1,000 rads - Approximately 1 to 4 hours after exposure, severe and pro- longed nausea and vomiting will develop that are difficult to control. Diarrhea and fever develop early in individuals in the upper part of the exposure range. Significant incapacitation is seen in the upper ranges. Initial symptoms last for more than 24 hours, then go into a latent period lasting 7 to 10 days. Following the latent stage, the symptoms return requiring 100 percent of the individuals to be hospitalized. Of those in the lower range, 50 percent will die, the percentage increasing toward the upper range. All deaths occur within 45 days. The survivors require 90 to 120 days of hospitalization before recovery. 4. 1,000 rad or more - Less than 1 hour after exposure, individuals develop severe vomiting, diarrhea, and prostration. There is no latent period. All individuals require hospitalization and die within 30 days. C. BIOLOGICAL AGENTS Govemments have used biological warfare as long as civilization has depended on agriculture. Today, various governments continue to research the development of poisonous toxins that are far more deadly than chemical warfare agents. Two of the earliest reported uses of toxins occurred in the sixth century BC: the Assyrian poisoning of enemy wells with rye ergot, and Solon's use of the purgative herb hellebore during the siege of Krissa. The use of biological agents is the oldest weapon of the NBC triad. Biological agents are more deadly than chemical agents and occur in nature and are being artificially developed in the laboratory. Large numbers of naturally occurring poisons have also been examined to determine their value as warfare agents. These include Capsaicin (an extract of cayenne pepper and paprika), Ricin (a toxic substance found in the castor bean), and Saxitoxin (a toxic substance secreted by certain shellfish).

PATHOGENS - Living, reproducing, disease-producing organisms. a. Bacteria. Capable of reproducing outside living cells. Examples: anthrax, tularemia, bubonic plague, cholera, and typhoid fever. b, Viruses. Infective agents composed of DNA or RNA that can only reproduce inside living cells. Examples: Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE), yellow fever, smallpox, hemorrhagic fever (Marburg and Ebola), and human immunodeficiency virus (H/V). c. Rickettsia. Parasitic microorganisms whose diseases are transmitted by the bite of ticks, lice, and fleas. These parasites require a living host as 4 Terrorism in America, An Evolvina Threat: Matthew S. Slater, MD; Donald D. Trunkey, MD; Archives of Suraerv, Special Article 0 October 1997 Appendix 1 to Annex B 7 T 1fflI 1(0 P3 opposed to bacteria. Examples: Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Qfever, and flea-borne typhus. d. Yeast and Fun!!i (Mvcotoxins). Mycotoxins were allegedly used in aerosol form ("yellow rain") to produce lethal and non-lethal casualties in Laos (1975-1982), Kampuchea (1979-1981), and Afghanistan (1979- 1981). Since the alleged victims were usually unprotected civilians or guerilla forces in remote jungle areas, it was extremely difficult to confirm the attacks or recover samples. However, over 10,000 deaths have been attributed to the use of these agents in these three campaigns.' e. Geneticallv Engineered Pathogens. Through advanced biochemical tech- niques, pathogens are subject to enhancement to increase their utility. Examples: antibiotic-resistant bacteria, bacteria genetically altered to have advanced aerosol and environmental durability, immunologically altered viruses resistant to standard vaccines and not identifiable to classical serological means. 2. TOXINS - Non-living, poisonous chemical compounds produced through the metabolic activities of living organisms. Toxins are 1,000 times more lethal or effective than standard chemical agents. Examples: snake venom, scorpion venom, Ricin, Saxitoxin (produced by marine algae), and puffer fish venom. 3. ENDOGENOUS BIOLOGICAL REGULATORS (EBRs) - Chemical substances produced in the body to regulate various body functions such as muscle contractions, blood pressure, heart rate, temperature, and immune responses. Examples: hormones, adrenalin, and delta sleep-inducing peptide. The most practical method of initiating infection using biological agents is through the dispersal of agents as minute, airborne particles (aerosols). Finely divided particles of liquid or solid suspended in a gas are sprayed over a target where the particles may be inhaled. An aerosol may be effective for some time after delivery, since it will be deposited on clothing, equipment, and soil. When the decontaminated clothing is used later, or dust is stirred up, responding personnel may be subject to a secondary dispersal. Biological agents may be able to use portals of entry into the body other than the respiratory tract. Individuals may be infected by ingestion of contaminated food and water or even by direct contact with the skin or mucous membranes through abraded or broken skin. This makes the use of protective clothing a must, along with protection of the respiratory tract through the use of a mask with biological filters or SCBA. Exposure to biological agents, unlike chemical agents, may not be immediately apparent. Casualties may occur minutes or hours to days or weeks after an 5 Janes's Chem-Bio Handbook. Frederick R. Sidell, m.d.; Dr. William C. Patrick, III; and Thomas R. Dashneill. Jane's Information Group, 1998. Page 147. Appendix 1 to Annex B 8 :I-lerYl I~ incident has occurred. The time required before symptoms are observed is dependent on the agent used. There are currently no effective monitoring devices available for first responders for use in determining whether they are involved in an incident involving biological agents, though work continues on developing such devices. Often the first clue will come from blood tests, or by other means used by medical personnel, or by observing possible symptoms of people exposed in the area. HazMat Teams and local FBI special response teams have field test kits and procedures to detect the presence of some biological agents such as anthrax. Some clues may be present that could be indicators that an NBC incident involving biological agents has taken place: a. Unusual numbers of sick or dying people and animals are present. For example, all the birds that are usually present at outside trash bins are dead; no insect sounds, etc. b. Reported illness reflects an unusual or impossible agent for the geographic area or there is an unusual distribution of the disease (that is, the casualties are aligned with the wind direction outdoors). Biological attacks will be different from natural outbreaks of disease. For example, a steady stream of patients presents to medical facilities instead of the usual peaks and valleys. Or the illness may occur in an unusual environment or time of year (such as cases of anthrax showing up where none have occurred before). Early warning and rapid identification of biological agents is of primary importance. This warning can sometimes be supplied by intelligence sources, but early warning is not usually available. Some of the more common or anticipated biological weapons are as follows: Anthrax is an acute infectious disease caused by the spore-forming bacterium bacillus anthracis. It occurs most frequently in cattle, goats, and sheep that acquire spores from direct contact with contaminated soil. Humans usually become infected through contact with, ingestion of, or inhalation of anthrax spores from infected animals or their products (like goat hair). Human-to-human transmission has not been documented. Following are sample guidelines for responding to a WMD threat involving anthrax. 6 1.

The last reported case in the world was in 1977, and the last case in the U.S. was in 1949. This devastating disease, for which there is no therapy, has a 30% mortality rate and commonly leaves survivors blind or seriously scarred. Smallpox is spread by aerosol or droplets and has an incubation period of 14 days. Initial symptoms resemble the flu but are followed by a rash which, unlike chicken pox, evolves with lesions in identical stages of evolution. The disease is infectious only during the rash phase. The major mechanisms of disease control are isolation (quarantine) and vaccination. Vaccination up to 4.5 days after exposure may prevent mortality. Vaccination is confounded by two problems: first, the national stockpile is not currently sufficient for more than several million people. The second problem is adverse reaction to the vaccination (occurs with a frequency of 3 per million--40% of these cases are fatal and the rest usually have residual neurologic problems). This disease has historically been the most feared in medicine and now represents a highly attractive form of biological weapon. Smallpox is attractive as an agent of bioterrorism in part because abandonment of vaccine programs has resulted in near universal vulnerability to smallpox.' D. CHEMICAL AGENTS Chemical agents are defined as any chemical substance intended to kill, seriously injure, or incapacitate humans due of its physiological effects. They are compounds that, through their chemical properties, produce lethal or damaging effects on man. Persistency is an expression of the duration of effectiveness of a chemical agent. The level of persistency is used to describe the tactical use of chemical agents and should not be used as terms to technically classify the agent: · Nonpersistent Agents - Remain in the target for a relatively short period of time. The hazard, predominately vapor, will exist for minutes or, in exceptional cases, hours after dissemination of the agent. As a general rule of thumb, nonpersistent agent duration will be less than 12 hours. . Persistent Agents - Remain in the target area for longer periods of time. Hazards from both vapors and liquids may exist for hours, days, or even weeks after dissemination of the agent. As a general rule of thumb, persistent agent duration will be greater than 12 hours. There are many factors that will affect the persistency of chemical agents: , DA Henderson, Director, Johns Hopkins Center for Civilian Biodefense Sludies. reviewed Appendix 1 to Annex B 13 ::r-b"n 1(oP~ I. Type of Agent - Different agents have various consistencies or viscosity with similarities ranging from rubbing alcohol to motor oil and will evaporate or dissipate at approximately the same rate. 2. Amount of Agent - Different amounts and dispersal methods used (aerosol, splash) also determine the persistency of an agent. 3. Terrain - The terrain will also affect the duration of an agent (open area, vegetative, urban, soil composition). 4. Weather - Wind, temperature, humidity, solar radiation, and precipitation all impact on the duration of an agent. Types of Chemical Agents The menu of chemical agents is enormous as there are agents typically used by the military, agents found in industry, agents concocted in clandestine labs, and combination agents (more than one chemical agent combined for dual effects). It would be impossible to put together a complete list of all possible chemical agents and their possible combinations, but it is feasible to list a group of chemical agents that have a higher degree of likelihood for being used in the field by terrorists agents. This list is presented in symptom logic order: a. Nerve Agents b. Blister Agents c. Choking Agents d. Blood Agents e. Incapacitating Agents f. Vomiting Agents g. CompoundlMixed Agents h. Irritant or Tear Gas These agents are further described in more detail in the following pages.

All nerve agents belong chemically to the group of organo-phosphorus compounds. They are stable, easily dispersed, highly toxic, and have rapid effects both when absorbed through the skin and via respiration. All these nerve agents produce the same basic physiological effect: they act upon enzymes at the myoneural (muscle-nerve) junction, causing immediate convulsions, paralysis, and death. They are capable of entering the body either through the lungs or the skin and are deadly in very small quantities. Nerve agents may be absorbed through the skin, respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, and the eyes. However, significant absorption through the skin takes a period of minutes, and prompt medical treatment and decontamination are imperative and sometimes quite successful. 8 Adapted from; Terrorism in America. An Evolvina Threat: Matthew S. Slater, MD; Donald D. Trunkey, MD; Archives of Suraerv, Special Article 0 October 1997 Appendix 1 to Annex B 15 'T-lcrYl 1~3 Physical and Chemical Properties The most commonly mentioned nerve agents are listed below': The "G" series of nerve agents include Tabun (GA), Sarin (GB), and Soman (GO). These military nerve agents are generally volatile and will evaporate at approximately the same rate as water. As a liquid, these substances are heavier than water and will sink. As a vapor, they are heavier than air and will tend to sink to the lowest level (like basements and subways). VX is a persistent military nerve agent that does not evaporate readily and is significantly heavier than air. Its primary contact hazard is as a liquid. Parathion and Malathion are commercial pesticides. They are quickly metabolized in the body and cause effects similar to those of nerve agents. However, they are significantly less toxic. Sevin (carbaryl) is a commonly used insecticide that is absorbed by ingestion and through the skin and eyes. Carbamates cause similar effects as nerve agents. However, unlike the organophosphate compounds, the toxic effect is not permanent. After several hours, the carbamate will spontaneously leave the system. This should be considered in victim care and medical treatment. Mechanism of Action A characteristic of nerve agents is that they are extremely toxic and that they have very rapid effect. The nerve agent, either as a gas, aerosol, or liquid enters the body through inhalation or through the skin. Poisoning may also occur through consumption of liquids or foods contaminated with nerve agents. The route for entering the body is of importance for the period required for the nerve agent to start having effect. It also influences the symptoms developed and, to some extent, the sequence of the different symptoms. Generally, the poisoning works faster when the agent is absorbed through the respiratory system than via other routes. Poisoning takes longer when the nerve agent enters the body through the skin. Since the first symptoms do not occur until 20-30 minutes after the initial exposure, immediate decontamination is essential. The poisoning process may be rapid, however, if the total dose of nerve agent is high. Symptoms The most identifiable characteristic of nerve agent exposure is the extreme constriction of the iris (miosis) causing pinpoint pupils. Other characteristic symptoms include increased production of saliva, a running nose, and a feeling of pressure on the chest. Short -range vision also deteriorates and the victim feels pain when they try to focus on an object nearby. This is usually accompanied by headache. More unspecific symptoms are tiredness, slurred speech, hallucinations, and nausea. 9 Janes's Chem-Bio Handbook. Frederick R. Sidell. m.d.: Dr. William C. Patrick, ill; and Thomas R. Dashneill. Jane's Information Group, 1998. Page 32-52. Appendix 1 to Annex B 16 ~l0F3 Exposure to a higher dose leads to more pronounced symptoms. Tightening of the chest and dramatic mucous membrane secretions (eyes, nose, and mouth) lead to coughing and difficulty in breathing. Discomfort in the gastrointestinal tract may develop into cramps and vomiting. Involuntary discharge of urine and defecation may also occur. Symptoms, like twitching, from the skeletal muscles are very typical. If the poisoning is moderate, this may express itself as muscular weakness, local tremors, or convulsions. When exposed to a high dose of nerve agent, the muscular symptoms are more pronounced. The victim may suffer convulsions and lose consciousness. To some extent, the poisoning process may be so rapid that earlier mentioned symptoms may never have time to develop. Muscular paralysis caused by nerve agents also affects the respiratory muscles, which is the direct cause of death. Consequently, death caused by nerve agents is a kind of death by suffocation.

Blister agents initially cause irritation of the eyes (and respiratory tract, if inhaled), erythema (reddening of the skin), then blistering or ulcerations, followed by systemic poisoning. There are three types of blister agents: mustards, arsenicals, and urticiants. Mustard is usually classified as a blistering agent owing to the wounds caused by this substance resembling bums and blisters. However, blister agents also cause severe damage to the eyes, respiratory system, and internal organs. The effect of mustard agent is delayed and the first symptoms do not occur until 2-24 hours after exposure. Lewisite and phosgene oxime, however, produce immediate pain on whatever part of the body comes in contact with the liquid or vapor, such as the eyes or skin. Physical and Chemical Properties Mustard "gas" is actually a liquid that is much heavier than water and its vapor is heavier than air. It has an odor of mustard, onions, or garlic that is usually detected when concentrations are close to toxic levels. Mustard can be absorbed into the body through the eyes, the skin, and the airways within seconds of contact.12 Symptoms There are no immediate physical signs of mustard exposure. The first sign of exposure to mustard is usually redness of the skin. Over a period of hours small blisters appear and gradually combine to form larger blisters. Irritation and redness are usually the first effects in the eyes. Victims may complain of not being able to see; this is usually due to swelling and inflaming eyelids. Signs of damage to the upper airways may include sinus pain, irritation of the nose, a sore throat, or a hacking cough. If more than a minimal amount is inhaled symptoms may include voice changes, with hoarseness or loss of voice. If large amounts are inhaled it can lead to damage of the lower airways producing shortness of breath and a severe productive cough. The shorter the onset time of these lower airway effects, the more threatening the diagnosis. Survival is unlikely if these symptoms appear earlier than 4 hours after exposure. Absorption of a large amount will also damage the bone marrow. However, these effects are not evident for approximately 3-5 days. Antidotes & TreaIrnents There is no treatment or antidote that can affect the basic cause of mustard agent injury. Therefore, the most important measure is to rapidly and thoroughly decontaminate the patient with soap and water. Eyes are rinsed with water or a physiological salt solution for at least five minutes. A casualty should remain under observation since no signs or symptoms occur within the first few hours. 12 Janes's Chem-Bio Handbook. Frederick R. Sidell, m.d.; Dr. William C. Patrick, III: and Thomas R. Dashneill. Jane's Information Group, 1998. Page 63-74. Appendix 1 to Annex B 19 :r -trn I <o~ Medical treatment may include antibiotics and local anesthetics to relieve pam. Despite treatment, inflammation and light sensitivity in the eyes may remain for long periods. CY ANIDESIBLOOD AGENTS Cyanide produces clinical effects by causing cell death. It does so by entering each contaminated cell of the body and poisoning the mechanism that uses oxygen. Oxygen enters the body though the lungs and is carried by the blood to the cells. Cyanide prevents the cells from using the oxygen and they suffocate. The body can destroy small amounts of cyanide and leave no effects on the body. Large amounts will effect the brain or central nervous system. The brain and central nervous system are dependent on oxygen and most effects of cyanide poisoning are those caused by a lack of oxygen in the brain. Exposure to a large amount will cause a sudden loss of consciousness, followed by convulsions. After 3-5 minutes breathing will stop. Death will usually occur within 10 minutes. INCAPACITATING / IRRITATING AGENTS Riot control agents such as CS, CN, CR, and pepper spray are commonly used in the civilian world. These agents are solids that are usually dispersed in a liquid spray. There are minor differences between riot control agents, however, the effects are similar: they cause pain or buming on exposed mucous membranes and skin. Tearing, reddening, and closing of the eyes usually accompany burning in the eyes. If these substances are inhaled, there will be a difficulty in breathing and tightening in the chest. Skin may also become irritated and burn. The effects of these agents begin within seconds of contact and decrease as the casualty moves to clean air. It is rare for these agents to produce serious harm to a casualty, unless disseminated in a forceful manner. COMPOUNDIMIXED AGENTS The possible mixing of chemical agents presents an additional concern to first responders in that it will be difficult to identify (by symptoms alone) which type of chemical agent is being used. Appendix 1 to Annex B 20 :C-t'ln \(dPs Annex to the Collier County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Terrorism Incident Response Plan Appendix Two to Annex B Procedure for Management of Victims of a Terrorist Incident Involving Biological, Chemical or Radiological Materials June 24, 2008 -:r:::--bn I ~ Appendix 2 to Annex B page- 2 Purpose This document is an Appendix to the Terrorism Incident Response Annex of the Collier County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. It provides guidance for county and municipal emergency response officials on the management of victims potentially contaminated or infected by biological, chemical or radiological agents released during a terrorist incident. Removal of CasualtieslFatalities Designated and properly protected response personnel will extricate victims who are unable to move themselves outside of the hot or warm zones. The extrication of victims will be done in accordance to either standard or specialized triage practices. Obvious fatalities will be left in place pending the activation and arrival of the Medical Examiner's Team and/or Disaster Mortuary Operational Response Team (D-MORT). Decontamination of Casualties The standard Hazardous Material Decontamination Procedure will be followed. If it is determined that an alternate decontamination method is needed due to a particular contaminant, the on-scene Medical Officer in Charge, Poison Control, ChemTrec, local Hazardous Material Team, Department of Health and/or the military will be consulted. Decontamination (decon) is to proceed as soon as possible, based on three considerations: 1. Whether a person or an article is contaminated; 2. The type and physical property of the contaminant (gas, liquid, or solid); and 3. The medical condition of the victim (triage). In all cases, as much contamination as possible should be left in the Hot Zone. Priority must be given to the decontamination of persons. Generation of diluted contaminant (due to flushing or any other action) requires the capture and confinement of that material, whenever possible. In decontamination, time is of the essence, the longer that a person remains in contact with a hazardous material, the greater the absorption of the contaminant by that person. Quick decontamination of victim(s) is the goal of first responders. The most effective decontamination time is within 1 to 2 minutes after exposure. The simple removal of the victims' clothing can effectively remove much of the contaminants. All decontamination actions conducted by first responders will be carried out using the appropriate personal protection equipment (PPE) as determined by the senior Hazardous Materials Officer on-scene or by the appropriate Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). In the event of gas or vapor contaminaJion, the simple removal of the outer layer of clothing on the victim may be sufficient decontamination. If further, or more thorough, decontamination is necessary, it will be performed in the following three stages: 1. Gross decontamination, involves the safe removal of the victim from the contaminated environment, complete removal of the victims' clothes, and a ~ \lgF3 Appendix 2 to Annex B Page- 3 complete head to toe rinse with the appropriate solution (usually plain water or a combination of water and soap.) 2. Secondary decontamination involves more thorough washing of the victim in a head to toe fashion possibly using a decontamination solution, which is then followed by a complete rinsing. 3. Definitive decontamination is carried out by a series of washes and rinses until such time that it is certain that all contaminants have been removed from the victim. Definitive decontamination will usually take place at a medical facility. First responding units arriving at a suspected terrorist attack will position their apparatus and equipment in an up-wind position and prepare to set up a drench decontamination corridor using on-board appliances and water supply, if necessary. If and when possible, first-in engine or aerial companies should connect to an appropriate hydrant and conduct a forward lay to provide a supply line to guarantee an uninterrupted water supply to adequately perform gross decontamination operations and anticipate the initial elements of a decontamination corridor. In the absence of a hydrant, a secondary source of water must be located, drafting operations should be considered, and the appropriate tanker apparatus should be deployed. Triage of Casualties Triage will be coordinated by the Medical Officer and may be highly specialized to the extent of the type of agent involved and its level/method of exposure in comparison to the victim's injuries. Otherwise, triage will be performed in accordance with the Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment (S.T.A.R.T) method. Most Florida fire/rescue/EMS departments have adopted this Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) triage method. Every local fire department should have START kits on their first response apparatus as part of their standard equipment inventory. START is a tag system designed to assess a large number of victims rapidly and can be used by all personnel regardless of their medical training. The initial triage is accomplished by the assessment of respiratory rate, perfusion, and mental status. Triage ribbons/tags are used to identify the priority of the patients. . RED - First Priority - IMMEDIATE . YELLOW - Second Priority - DELAYED . GREEN - Third Priority - AMBULATORY . BLACK - Deceased Secondary triage is performed on all patients during the treatment phase in the medical sector. During this phase patients can be up-graded or downgraded depending upon the dynamics of their injuries. Treatment of Casualties The reality of an incident of large proportions has shown that victims will leave the scene and either walk to or find a rapid transport to a medical facility--usually the facility closest to the incident site. The danger in this is that victims may be contaminated with an agent that could T-tmlcE3 Appendix 2 to Annex B page- 4 then contaminate other people, vehicles, and medical facilities that wiU, in turn, increase the number of casualties and overwhelm the facility. Emergency personnel on scene should plan to have a staging area for victims. Local medical facilities will be contacted as soon as possible in order for them to prepare an exterior triage and decontamination area to ensure the safety of their staff and facility. Medical and other personnel will be apprised of conditions that may develop over time in case patients develop complications later on. Patients who exhibit suspect symptoms will be treated by established protocols. Isolation and Quarantining of the Injured and Exposed The criteria and procedures for isolating/quarantining the injured and other exposed people who cannot be safely extracted, pending arrival of appropriate assistance, should be addressed in the local fire/rescue department's procedure manuals. UsuaUy the first arriving unit wiU perform the initial size-up. An approximation of the number of victims and MCI level wiU be announced. Special needs such as isolation or quarantining exposed victims will be determined at this point. Incident command and a staging area will be established. Most fire department Hazardous Materials Operating Policies require that the area be isolated and entry denied to aU personnel until the material(s) has/have been identified. Protective clothing and equipment necessary to operate safely in the affected area must be utilized. Decisions regarding long-term quarantining of the community for highly contagious biological agents will be made by Collier County Emergency Management in consultation with the County Health Department, State Health Department, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Transport of Victims Victims should be decontaminated at the scene prior to transportation. Transportation of decontaminated patients to the appropriate facilities will foUow the Standard Protocols for a Mass Casualty Incident. In-place, on-scene, temporary sheltering of victims may be deemed necessary while receiving facility resources are stabilized. Coordination with other county, State, and Federal resources will be conducted through the State Division of Emergency Management. Stocks of Available Antidotes In order to treat a large-scale contamination, three approaches should be taken: 1. The Regional Domestic Security Task Force has stockpiled antidotes available for distribution to field responders and local hospitals. Local hospitals may also be able to provide rescue trucks with antidotes, depending upon the antidote and required amount. :::BTn I~ Appendix 2 to Annex B Page- 5 2. Second, additional supplies may be available from State and/or Federal sources, but these sources must be pre-identified and pre-planned prior to an incident. Additional antidotes may be available from surrounding Veterans Administration Medical Centers, Fire/Rescue Supply Bureaus, EMS supply bureaus, and local pharmaceutical distribution warehouses. 3. Finally, through activation of National Disaster Medical Services (NDMS), additional resources can be requested.

When the County EOC appears at risk of exhausting all local resources or determines local responders need additional resources, a request for additional assistance will be made through the County EOC to the State Warning Point in State EOC. The State EOC will notify the ESF 16 emergency coordinating officer, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), who in turn will notify their Regional Operations Center(s) to notify the Task Force(s) and to place them on alert. The RDSTF's primary role in the response phase is to coordinate the use of the Domestic Security Response Teams. Its mission is to support the local incident command structure and not to assume command and control of the incident. However, if the County requests such command and control support, then the Task Force may coordinate the activation of a separate overhead Incident Command System team to handle these operations in coordination with the State EOC, these teams will be made up of emergency service personnel trained in the ICS positions needed to assume command and control operations. Request for Assistance & Response: Once the initial call for additional resources has been made, all requests for Domestic Security Response Team assistance will be coordinated with the Regional Domestic Security Task Force Coordinator through the County EOC. Initial requests for resources may be verbal as response conditions dictate, but must be followed with a written request utilizing forms contained in the State Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan for requesting mutual aid resources (Reference 1). The requesting jurisdiction will complete the forms, assuring that an explanation of the mission to which those resources will be assigned is included. The Regional Domestic Security Task Force Coordinator will facilitate the verbal or written request through the County EOC to the State EOC for processing. The Regional Domestic Security Task Force Coordinator, in consultation with the task force chair and/or co-chair and the State and County EOC, will determine the appropriate level of response by the Domestic Security Response Teams to the request. If determined that one or more of these teams are necessary, then the Regional Domestic Security Task Force Coordinator will activate other task force members to facilitate resource mobilization and deployment. The State EOC will provide the Regional Domestic Security Task Force Coordinator with the State Mission Number(s) through the County EOC. The appropriate task force liaison will then notify the activated resources as soon as practicable and provide the resource supervisor (leader) with the following information regarding the mission: . The State assigned mission number . The location and directions of travel to the staging area at the scene of the incident Appendix 5 to Annex B 5-2 :J.A---. n IlcF"2. . The point of contact either at the incident scene or at the affected jurisdiction's EOC . The cell phone number, radio frequency or telephone number where the point of contact can be reached . A brief size-up of the incident that is being responded to . The primary mission objective and any special instructions . 24-hour contact numbers for the response liaisons to allow team supervisor the ability to submit daily situation reports and maintain any necessary emergency communications. The Regional Domestic Security Task Force Coordinator or liaison will also furnish an approximate estimated time of arrival at the assigned staging area. This information will be sent to the affected County EOC and the State EOC. The Regional Domestic Security Task Force Coordinator will be responsible for tracking these resources within the region, using standardized forms for ordering resources and forms compliant with the state and federal guidelines governing mutual aid.

This annex addresses the role of State and local government in providing the necessary support to the Florida Division of Forestry in its statutory responsibilities in responding to, controlling and suppressing wildfires. The Collier County Emergency Management Office collaborates with the incident's Logistics Chief for coordination of the logistical support. The Collier County Fire Chief's Association, in cooperation with the Division of Forestry, will update and coordinate the plans with other response and support agencies. The Annex is a living document; being reviewed and updated at the conclusion of a major wild land fire event or annually. It is presently divided into four (4) Chapters as follows: Chapter I - Introduction: Provides a discussion of the purpose, scope and planning assumptions used to prepare the annex. Chapter 2 - The Response Organization: Identifies the various levels of support that may be provided through a Unified Command structure. It describes the circumstances under which the various agencies will unify under a single command structure in responding to, controlling and suppressing wildfires and the responsibilities of the Unified Command components (agencies). This Chapter also addresses the delegation of authority during a wildfire event. Chapter 3 - The Concept of Operation: Presents the key guidelines that will be used to make key decisions during the course of the event. Based on joint considerations discussed and determined by the county's liaison agencies of the Unified Command (Division of Forestry, the Collier Fire Chief s Association and the Emergency Management Department), several guidelines for the three levels of activation (Monitoring, Partial, and Full) for the Collier County Emergency Operations Center during a wildfire event have been developed. This Chapter also addresses medical unit activation, air operations, logistical support, and resources. Chapter 4 - Public Information and Information Flow: Discusses the notification process for acti ve wildfires to the State Warning Point, the coordination of situation reports and incident action plans. Attachment I . Requesting Fire Suppression Assistance: Provides the framework under which fire suppression assistance will be obtained when State resources have been over extended. Information will be disseminated to the public within the Unified Command. The Chapter also describes the information needed and the steps necessary for satisfying the requirements to request fire suppression assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency based on the wildfire or complex of wildfires. Page 4 to Annex C ~1&F3 Collier County Comorehensive Emerl!encv Mana!:!ement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 References and Authorities The authority for the development, implementation and maintenance of this Annex and all compatible county/municipal plans in support of the Florida Division of Forestry and Division of Emergency Management in its statutory responsibilities in responding to, controlling and suppressing wildfires is derived from Chapter 252.38(1)(a) of the Florida Statutes. This Annex further serves as the fundamental governing policy as prescribed for the Division of Forestry under Chapter 590 of the Florida Statutes. The Federal Emergency Management Agency policy on requesting Fire Suppression Assistance is contained within 44 CFR Part 206, Subpart L. The Federal Emergency Management Agency's Interim Policy on Fire Suppression Assistance, April 1999.

Page 5 to Annex C ~I~ Col1ier County Comorehensive Emer!.!:cncv Manae:ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 CHAPTER I - INTRODUCTION I. General Annex C (The Collier County Emergency Response Team Guidelines for Wildfire Operations) identifies the actions that may be taken by the Florida Division of Forestry and those State and local agencies in support of the Division of Forestry in preparing for, responding to, and recovering from wildfire event(s). This Annex addresses the role of State and local government in providing the necessary support to the Florida Division of Forestry in its statutory responsibilities in responding to, controlling and suppressing wildfires. II. Purpose The Collier County Emergency Management Office collaborates with the incident's Logistics Chief for coordination of the logistical support. The Emergency Management Department, in cooperation with the Collier County Fire Chiefs' Association, will update and coordinate the plans with other response and support agenCIes. III. Scope This Annex covers any and all wildfires that occur in Collier County that the Division of Forestry and local governments respond. The purpose of the response is to contain, control and extinguish the wildfire. IV. Assumptions A. The Division of Forestry is statutorily responsible for wildfire prevention, detection, and suppression on 26,000,000 acres in Florida. B. The United States Forest Service and the Department of Interior are responsible for wildfire suppression on their respective federal lands throughout the State. C. Each year, lightning fires that are associated with Florida's thunderstorm season (April through September) can create tremendous wildfire activity when associated with the State's dry Spring conditions. D. From 1981 through 1998, an average of 5,656 wildfires occurred per year, burning an average of 209,371 acres. In 1999, the wildfire season saw 4,500 wildfires consume more than 365,000 acres statewide. E. Because of changing weather conditions, the yearly figures ranged from a low of 3,343 wildfires (with 48,586 acres burned) in 1995 to record high \3,917 wildfires in 1981. F. In 1989, a record 645,331 acres burned statewide. However, the most intense fire season on record occurred in 1998 due to the escalating wildland/urban interface in the State. Page 6 to Annex C -::Ib-'n 1/0F5 Collier County Comorehensive EmcfQcncv ManaQcment Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 G. The President is authorized to provide assistance, including grants, equipment, supplies, and personnel, to any State for the suppression of any fire on publicly or privately owned forest or grassland, which threatens such destruction as would constitute a major disaster. Page 7 to Annex C -::::Gctn 1 ~F3 Collier County Comorehensive Emcmcncv ManaQ'cment Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 CHAPTER 2 - THE RESPONSE ORGANIZA nON I. General This Chapter of the Annex describes the organization to be used to coordinate Collier County's agencies support of the Division of Forestry's response during wildfire events. It describes the Unified Command structure the various agencies will work under to control and suppress wildfires. Also it addresses the circumstances under which the unified structure will support Forestry in its response to wildfires. Following the catastrophic fires in Florida during the summer of 1998, State and Federal agencies developed new and updated strategies to deal with serious statewide wildfires. A major change since 1998 was in the organization of statewide oversight. In 1999, a Unified State Command comprised of in-state personnel was utilized. The Unified State Command structure will be the process used to manage serious wildfire events. II. Response Organization A. Local The Incident Management Team (IMT) comprised of locally trained State and local firefighters will be used to manage fire-fighting operation when two mutual aid departments and Division of Forestry assets are engaged in a wildland fire- fighting operation. The Incident Management Team will request activation of the County Emergency Operations Center and/or State's response system when the wildland fire is expected to exceed local fire-fighting capabilities. B. State The Unified State Command is established as conditions warrant based on a joint decision by the State Forester and the Forest Supervisor of the National Forest in Florida and/or a representative of the Department of the Interior. Unified State Command is organized like a State Multi-Agency Coordination (MAC) group, but with the important difference being that the Unified State Command also retains operational command of resources as well as provides logistical coordination. The Unified State Command is set up so that an Incident Commander is provided from the primary jurisdictional agencies on which the wildfires are occurring. Unified State Commanders will include the Florida Division of Forestry and either the USDA Forest Service, National Park Service, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, or the Bureau of Indian Affairs. In addition to the Incident Commanders and jurisdictional agency liaisons, the Command Staff will also include liaisons from several key support agencies. These support agencies include the Division of Emergency Management, Division of State Fire Marshal, Florida Fire Chief's Association; Florida National Guard and if involved the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Monitor the operation so as to request the Board of County Commissioners issue a Local Declaration of Emergency and issue warnings to the affected communities as the situation warrants. . Activate the Emergency Alerting System to facilitate area evacuation(s). . Activate sheltering/cooling operations for those evacuated. B. Collier County Fire Chief's Association The CCFCA will organize and maintain the County's Incident Management Team to support wildland fire-fighting operations. This Incident Management Team can be deployed to support other wildland fire-fighting operations in the region. C. Division of Forestry, Caloosahatchee District The DoF Caloosahatchee District manager, or designated representative, will activate the Incident Management Team when the situation warrants. D. Dept. of Agriculture and Consumer Service, Division of Forestry The Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Forestry has statutory responsibility for the suppression of wildland fires in the State of Florida. The Division of Forestry has the Lead Role in determining when a State Unified Command will be established. In consultation with other State and Federal partners, the Di vision of Forestry will appoint one member of their organization and at least one alternate to serve as State Incident Commander. The Incident Commander will determine the scope and structure of the Unified Command for the wildland(s) burning in the State. E. Division of Emergency Management The Florida Division of Emergency Management has statutory responsibility for coordinating State and local support to the Division of Forestry in the response and recovery from wildland fires. A liaison will be appointed to coordinate the Division's Support Role. Various support elements will be initiated as requested by the Incident Cornmander. F. Florida Fire Chiefs' Association The Florida Fire Chief's Association provides the Division of Forestry logistical support through the services of fire departrnents throughout the State. This support effort will be initiated according to the Florida Fire Chiefs' Association State Ernergency Response Plan (SERP) that is activated by request for Emergency Support Function 4, Firefighting. Page 9 to Annex C ~ 1l.F6 Collier County Comorehensi ve Emenrcncy Manai.!:cmenl Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 G. Division of State Fire Marshal The State Fire Marshal appoints an Emergency Coordination Officer for Emergency Support Function 4, Firefighting. Emergency Support Function 4 is responsible for logistical request from State and local governments for firefighting and EMS resources. These resources are then dispatched according to the requirements of the Florida Fire Chiefs' Association Disaster Response Plan. IV. Delegation of Authority Incident Management Team(s) for the incidents will be organized in Unified Command with liaisons from the Division of Emergency Management and the Division of State Fire Marshal or the Florida Fire Chief's Association. Page 10 to Annex C ~/ia~ Collier County Comorehensive Emenzencv Manallement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 CHAPTER 3 - THE CONCEPT OF OPERA nON I. General This section of the Annex presents key guidelines that can be used to make key decisions during the course of the event. These decisions will be based on experience, the best evaluation of the current situation, and the forecast for the near future. All wildfire responses will use the National Incident Management System (NIMS) as the emergency response organizational management structure. Based on joint considerations discussed and determined by the County's liaison agencies of the Unified Command (Division of Forestry, the Collier Fire Chiefs' Association, and the Fire Chief(s) of the affected area(s)), several guidelines for the three levels of activation (Monitoring, Partial, and Full) for the Collier County Emergency Operations Center during a wildfire event have been developed. When the EOC is activated in support of the Wildfire Response it will act as a Multi-Agency Coordination Center in support of the Unified Command. II. Level Three, Monitoring Phase: When two mutual-aid Departments and Department of Forestry or one Strike Team is called out, the Emergency Management Department will deploy a liaison to the scene, unless the mutual-aid deployment was only due to the normal lack of organic resources within the agency and not generated by the incident commander "size-up" of the fire situation. Additionally, the Emergency Managernent Department may deploy a liaison to the scene upon request of the incident commander. The Emergency Management Department will maintain a liaison with the Incident Management Team at the point when the Multi-Agency Coordination Vehicle Post is deployed. When wildland fire- fighting acti vities increase whereby greater logistical support is anticipated and the State's Incident Management Tearn is not in place, the Collier County Emergency Operations Center will be activated to support all logistics operations. The Emergency Management liaison will remain in contact with the Division of Forestry and the Emergency Operations Center, unless a fire-fighter liaison is deployed to the EOC. III. Level Two, Partial Activation The Collier County Emergency Operations Center may be activated to a Level Two based on a variety of considerations. A. The Request for Issuing a Local Declaration of Emergency When appropriate, the Emergency Management Department will request a Local Declaration of Emergency from the Board of County Commissioners based on the following factors: 1. When the wildland fire is out of control and threatening a community. 2. When the Emergency Management Department or the IMT requests additional powers to speed the logistical support effort. 3. When community evacuations may be required. Page II to Annex C ~Ilf~ Collier County Comorehensive Emenzcncy Manallcment Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 B. The Collier County Fire Chiefs' Association (CCFCA) Liaison to the County Emergency Operations Center Once the Collier County Emergency Operations Center has gone to Level Two, the CCFCA will provide a liaison to the County Emergency Operations Center and provide information coordination for the County Emergency Support Functions. IV. Level One, Full Activation A. The Emergency Management Department Guidelines to Fully Activate the County Emergency Operations Center The Ernergency Management Director, in consultation with the CCFCA Liaison and County Manager, will make the decision when to activate the County Emergency Operations Center to a Level One. The following factors may be used in the decision-making process; I. When a response to a wildfire event requires the resource and/or logistical support from a majority of the County's Emergency Support Functions. 2. When a wildfire event necessitates evacuations that require resource support frorn neighboring counties. B; The CCFCA Coordination With the Emergency Management Department The CCFCA and the Emergency Management Department will coordinate several critical functions as follows; 1. Ernergency Support Function 4 will provide logistical liaisons to the Florida Division of ForestryfUS Forest Service offices or at the Unified Expanded Dispatch. 2. A Joint Information Center (JIC) will be established at the scene. The Division of Forestry will provide briefing points on the wildfire situation through Emergency Support Function 14. Emergency Support Function 14 will then coordinate this consistent information message with other Public Information Officers throughout the county. 3. An Emergency Management Department liaison will be included in the planning process with the IMT personnel in the formation of the Incident Action Plan (lAP) for the wildfire event when the Emergency Operations Center is activated to a Level Two or One. 4. The CCFCA will provide liaisons to the County's Emergency Support Function 5 (Information and Planning) to consolidate the planning Page 12 to Annex C T-trn I~ Collier County Comorehensive Emerl!encv Manae:ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 process and provide input into the situation reports issued to the State Emergency Operations Center. C. The CCFCA's Co-Location To The County Emergency Operations Center The Unified Command will jointly determine when and what portions of the IMT structure should co-locate to the County Emergency Operations Center. The Emergency Management Departrnent will provide all support resources for such co-location. The joint decision to co-locate will be based on guidelines including: I. The number of wildfire incidents requires continual coordination and logistical support frorn various County Emergency Support Functions. The liaison initially provided by the Emergency Management Department during Level Three Activation is overwhelrned with the amount of coordination required. 2. The nurnber of wildfire incidents requires the formation and possible forward insertion of an Area Command or multiple Area Commands. V. Medical Unit Activation A rnedical unit may be activated when an Incident Management Tearn is put in place to coordinate large numbers of firefighters or ernergency personnel. If the Incident Management Team requests a Medical Unit, the request will go through the County Emergency Operations Center. VI. Air Operations When the Division of Forestry and the United States Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, under increased wildfire activity, establish Unified Air Operations for statewide wildfire aviation coordination, the Unified Air Operations will establish an Air Operations Plan that will coordinate all aircraft associated with fire operations or flying within wildland fire aviation air space. Within Collier County the Caloosahatchee District Forestry manager, or designated representative, is in charge of the local air space around the wildland fire. This includes: . Forestry Aircraft . Fire agency aircraft . Law Enforcement aircraft . . Military aircraft . Contractor aircraft . Media aircraft VII. Resources Page 13 to Annex C Collier County ComDrehensive Emcf!:rencv Manal!ement Plan 2008 "'Ik':m {~3 June 24 2008 The Division of Forestry and the affected fire district will be responsible for command and control of all operational elements of the wildfire response to include resource ordering for wildfire incidents. The Emergency Management Departrnent will support the wildland fire-fighting operations by managing and coordinating any non-wildfire resource ordering through the Emergency Support Functions and the State Emergency Operations Center. The Incident Commander will order fire-fighting resources through local dispatch. The fire-fighting resource-typed units are detailed in the current year's Caloosahatchee All Hazards - Incident Managernent Team Standard Operating Guidelines. VIII. Logistical Support This Section identifies the roles of the agencies involved in the logistical support of the IMT during wildfire events. Separate processes exist for the ordering of resources and other logistical support for the wildfire events and the Incident Managernent Teams commanding the suppression of wildfires. In addition, the linkage needed between these resources and logistical ordering processes to provide the correct resource, to ensure that it is provided in a timely manner, and that they are provided cost-effectively is identified. The primary method in which resources and logistical support is ordered for wildfire events include: A. The Florida Fire Chief's Association State Emergency Response Plan (SERP) in support of the Division of State Fire Marshal as the Lead Agency for Emergency Support Function 4 (Firefighting), 8 (Health & Medical), 9 (Search & Rescue) and 10 (Hazardous Materials). B. The Logistics Section of the County Emergency Operations Center. C. Department of Forestry. ~ Page 14 ~ Annex C -:Tkm 10F3 Collier County ComDrehensive Emerll:ency Manal!ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 CHAPTER 4 - PUBLIC INFORMATION and INFORMATION FLOW I. General This Chapter provides how information will be shared during a wildfire event. During a wildfire event a Joint Information Center (J1C) will be established at the scene comprised of representatives of the affected fire district Department of Forestry and the EOC. During the activation of the County Emergency Operations Center, the EOC representative to the J1C will establish a mechanism that efficiently provides and disseminates information to the public. The EOCs lead Public Information Officer will facilitate the logistical support and orientation for all Public Information Officers working in the County Emergency Operations Center. II.

Page 16 to Annex C ::G/ffn 1lf3 Collier County COffinrehensive Emer2:cncv Mana2:ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 Attachment I . REQUESTING FIRE SUPPRESSION ASSISTANCE I. General The President of the United States is authorized to provide Federal assistance to any state for the suppression of any fire on publicly or privately owned forest or grassland that would constitute a rnajor disaster. Such assistance may be in the form of grants, equipment, supplies, and personnel in accordance with the Federal Emergency Management Agency's policy on requesting Fire Suppression Assistance as contained in 44 CFR Part 206, Subpart L. II. Purpose of Fire Suppression Assistance Through the Fire Suppression Assistance Program, the Federal Ernergency Management Agency's role in cornbating grassland, wildland, or wildland/urban interface fires is to provide financial assistance to states for fire suppression. The program is unique in that the Federal Emergency Management Agency actively provides assistance to suppress fires that threaten such destruction as would constitute a major disaster. When it has been determined that a wildland fire or fires on publicly or privately owned forest or grassland threaten such destruction as would constitute a major disaster, supplemental assistance may be provided in the form of a single grant, to reimburse eligible fire suppression costs. III. Scope of Fire Suppression Assistance A fire suppression declaration is the authorization of Federal assistance that is rnade to the Federal Emergency Management Agency when a fire or fires constitute the threat of a major disaster. A. Criteria for Fire Suppression Assistance The Federal Emergency Management Agency will authorize a Fire Suppression Declaration if the eligible damage and potential impact of the fire is of a magnitude that it could result into a major Disaster Declaration for Public Assistance and/or Individual Assistance. B. Key Factors for Fire Suppression Assistance 1. The Division of Forestry, the State Coordinating Officer, the Principal Advisor, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency will consider the following key factors when evaluating and analyzing the need for fire suppression assistance: a. Threat to lives and improved property b. Threat to critical facilities. c. Committed or unavailable State and local resources including resources through: State agencies; local fire departments; Cooperative Agreements; and Page 17 to Annex C -:Gem 1(0 F3 Collier County Comnrehensi ve Emenzency Mana\!ement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 d. Interstate/Regional Compacts; the Emergency Management Assistance Compact. 2. High danger fire conditions, as indicated by: a. Keetch-Byrarn Drought Index (KBDI) or similar nationally accepted index. b. Energy release component. c. Current weather conditions. d. Rate of spread based on a nationally accepted behavior model. e. Spread component. f. Ignition component. g. Burning index. h. Relevant State restrictions in place and implemented. 1. Topography of the land. 3. Threatened watershed areas. 4. Potential impact on the environrnental and historic/cultural resources. 5. Potential major economic impact. 6. Existence of multiple wildfires/potential convergence of fires. IV. Gathering Information for Fire Suppression Assistance Request Staff for the Division of Forestry will be made aware of the potential need to document and gather information required to request Federal Fire Suppression Assistance. A. Critical Information for Requesting Fire Suppression Assistance When rnaking a request for Federal Fire Suppression Assistance, the following critical information is required and must be gathered: I. If the State is unable to control or suppress wildfires or a complex of wildfires without out-of-state assistance. 2. If homes and/or structures are threatened and or evacuated due to the threat of the wildfire and the number of such homes, structures, or commercial businesses that are threatened. 3. If there is key infrastructure being threatened such as power plants, utility lines, water and/or sewage plants. Page 18 to Annex C --::Il:m IIcF3 Collier County ComDrehensi ve Emer!:!encv Mana2ement Plan 2008 June 24, 2008 4. If the wildfire is not controlled or contained at the tirne of the request. 5. The number of resources that is being utilized, including local fire/rescue resources, are docurnented and reported. 6. Current weather conditions are being reported and documented as extreme. B. Closing Fire Suppression Grant Assistance To close out a Federal Fire Suppression Grant in the State of Florida, the Unified Command/Division of Forestry representative will notify the State Coordinating Officer of any Complexes in which all fires are controlled thus signaling the end to the grant period. It will then be the Division of Forestry's responsibility to issue the notification to the principal advisor. All such notifications must be in writing. V. Roles and Responsibilities for Fire Suppression Assistance A. The Division of Forestry Incident Commander The Incident Commander will notify the Division of Forestry's State Officer in Charge of the wildfire, as soon as possible and report the inforrnation that is available. The Incident Commander will coordinate this information with the County Emergency Managernent representative. B. The Director of the Division of Forestry The Director or designee will coordinate with the Di vision of Ernergency Management liaison or Duty Officer to notify the State Coordinating Officer, if identified, when a fire meets the criteria for a Fire Suppression Grant. Contacting the State Warning Point can do this notification. C. The State Coordinating Officer 1.

Page 8 to Annex D -::Lbn 1/cP3 Collier County Comorehensive Emenzencv Manal!ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 CHAPTER 3 - THE CONCEPT OF OPERATION I. General This section of the Annex presents key guidelines that can be used to make key decisions during the course of the event. These decisions will be based on experience, the best evaluation of the current situation, and the forecast for the near future. All hurricane responses will fall under the umbrella of the Incident Management Systern established by the Collier County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC). Since a hurricane is a disaster that we can see approaching, we have defined general phases of activity based on the anticipated arrival of tropical storm force winds. Based on joint considerations discussed and determined by the County's liaison agencies of the Unified Command several guidelines for the three levels of activation (Monitoring, Partial, and Full) for the Collier County Emergency Operations Center during a hurricane event have been developed. II. Level Three, Monitoring Phase: The Ernergency Management Department will: 1. Monitor the weather system 2. Participate in/Initiate conference calls with other counties, the State, other agencies. 3. Regularly transmit warning and preparedness information through all communications media. 4. Brief the elected officials. 5. Implement Time Delineating Schedule (TDS) activities. 6. Prepare to acti vate the EOC. III. Level Two, Partial Activation The Collier County Emergency Operations Center may be activated to a Level Two based on a variety of considerations. A. The Request for Issuing a Local Declaration of Emergency When appropriate, the Emergency Management Department will request a Local Declaration of Emergency from the Board of County Comrnissioners based on the following factors: I. Activating shelters (Host or Risk). 2. Ordering evacuation(s). 3. Closing down/reducing "normal" governmental operations. Page 9 to Annex D ~llf3 Collier County Comnrehensive Emer2:encv Manal:!ement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 4. Expending county monies in response to the Hurricane Threat. 5. Five-day prediction of Category 4 Hurricane, or higher, paralleling or directly hitting Collier County. 6. Three-Day prediction of Category 3 Hurricane, or higher, paralleling or directly hitting Collier County. B. The Collier County Liaisons to the County Emergency Operations Center Once the Collier County Emergency Operations Center has gone to Level Two, the following agencies will maintain a presence in the EOC while activated: . ESF I, Transportation . ESF 3, Public Works/Engineering . ESF 4, Firefighting . ESF 6, Mass Care . ESF 8, Health, Medical & Human Services . ESF-9, Search & Rescue . ESF 14, Public Information/Collier Emergency Information Hotline . ESF 16, Law Enforcement . Liaisons (Private & Municipalities) IV. Level One, Full Activation A. The Emergency Management Department Guidelines to Fully Activate the County Emergency Operations Center The Emergency Management Director, in consultation with the County Manager, will make the decision when to activate the County Emergency Operations Center to a Level One. The following factors may be used in the decision-making process: 1. When a response to the hurricane event requires the resource and/or logistical support from a majority of the County's Emergency Support Functions. 2. When the threat of a hurricane event necessitates evacuations that require resource support from neighboring counties. Page 10 to Annex D T~ Ilf3 Collier County COffinrehensive Emenrency Mana2:emen( Plan 2008 June 24 2008 B. The Governmental Employee Shelter Activation When the EOC becomes fully activated due to a hurricane threat and a major evacuation is anticipated, the County Manager may direct the opening of Employee Shelter(s) so that governmental services may be rnaintained/restored. C. The CCFA's Coordination of Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Activities The CCFA and Emergency Management Department will jointly determine the consolidated sheltering of CERTs. Once the Dependent and Independent Fire Departrnents activate their CERTs, the CERTs will fall under the operational control of the EOC. The CERTs will be assigned to perform the following activities: I. Damage/Impact Assessment 2. "Cornfort Station" support V. Resources All resource requests will be coordinated through ESF-7, Resource Support. Page II to Annex D X-b'h 1c'cF~ Collier County COffinrehensi ve Emenrency ManaQement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 CHAPTER 4 - PUBLIC INFORMATION and INFORMATION FLOW I. General This Chapter provides how information will be shared during a wildfire event. During the activation of the County Emergency Operations Center, Emergency Support Function 14 (Public Information) has the responsibility to establish a mechanism that efficiently provides and disseminates information to the public. The County Manager will appoint a Lead Public Information Officer who will facilitate the logistical support and orientation for all Public Information Officers working in the County Emergency Operations Center. II. Unified Public Information When the County Emergency Operations Center is activated (Level 2 or I), State, Local and County agencies will provide experienced Public Inforrnation Officers to Ernergency Support Function 14 or provide access to Public Information Officers to respond to information requests of tbat particular agency. In the initial stages of any activation, a plan will be developed to mainly staff & activate the Collier Emergency Information Hotline (CElli). III. Information Flow A. Hurricane Response Activity I. The Emergency Management Director will notify the State Warning Point of any significant activities that develop. 2. The ESF-14 Leader will notify the Emergency Operations Center Manager of any significant activities that develop. 3. The criteria for significant activities includes: a. Lives and/or property imminently jeopardized. b. Evacuation issues/problems. c. Injuries or deaths related to the hurricane event. d. Road closures to major thoroughfares. B. Situation Report Information The ESF-5, Planning & Intelligence, will produce situation reports. Page 12 to Annex D ""I-rrn I~ Collier County Comnrehensive Emer!!encY Mana!:!:ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan FLOOD WARNING PROGRAM ANNEX E June 24, 2008 Annex E - Page 1 --::c.:JOYl f~F3 Collier County Comorehensive Emcfllcncv Manaf!cment Plan 2008 June 24 2008 COLLIER COUNTY FLOOD WARNING PROGRAM I. INTRODUCTION: A. Purpose I. This program establishes a framework through which Collier County may prepare for, mitigate the impacts of, respond to, and recover frorn salt water or fresh water tlooding conditions that could adversely affect the health, safety and general wel fare of Collier County residents and guests. 2. Provisions are made for the needed tlexibility of direction, coordination and method of operation to enable government and non-government entities to accomplish their objectives of mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. This Annex also provides the framework for rendering support to other counties, municipalities, States and the Federal government in their tlood management efforts. B. Scope The Collier County Flood Warning Program I. Describes the various types of tlooding that could occur and provides procedures for disseminating warning inforrnation and for determining, assessing and reporting the severity and magnitude of tlooded areas, 2. Establishes the concepts under which the county government will operate in response to tlood emergencies, and 3. Creates a framework for expeditious, effective and coordinated employment of local resources. 4. The County Ernergency Managernent Office adrninisters/disseminates tlood warning information to the municipalities and all response operations are conducted under the authority of the Collier County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. C. Assumptions 1. The State Agencies of Florida have certain expertise and resources at their disposal that may be used in relieving emergency or disaster related problems that are beyond the County's capability. 2. When the County declares a State of Local Emergency and requests State assistance following a tlooding disaster, the Governor will declare a State of Disaster Emergency, and the State Emergency Operations Center (SEOC) will be activated if conditions warrant. Annex E, page - 2 :r:tem 1CcF-3 Collier County Comorehensive Emen!encv ManalIement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 3. Should State assistance be inadequate to cope with the flooding disaster, the Governor will request Federal assistance under a Presidential Disaster Declaration. 4. The National Weather Service Office (NWSO), Miami, will issue flood advisory, watches and warning information to both Government and the citizens. The State Warning Point will follow-up the NWSO's warning information with direct contact with the local Emergency Management Office (duty hours) or the Collier Sheriff's Office (non-duty hour warning point). D. Situation 1. Because of the seasonal possibility of large scale flooding events within Collier County, the County must be adequately prepared to deal with, reduce vulnerability to, and recover from these flood emergencies. The Emergency Management Functions, within the County, must be coordinated as much as possible with other local government and non-governmental agencies as well as with the State Division of Emergency Management and surrounding jurisdictions to ensure the most effective preparation and use of manpower, resources, and facilities in response to flood threats and/or emergencies. 2. The principal causes of flooding affecting Collier County are as follows: a. Hurricanes/tropical storms generate high winds, wave action along the coast and widespread flooding over much of the populated area of the County. Saltwater intrusion from the storm surge has the potential to affect 90% of the population depending on the intensity of the storm. Although tropical systems can form during any month of the year, hurricane/tropical storm season begins on June I and ends on November 30. b. Other weather systems, both tropical and non-tropical, which mayor may not have an identifiable low pressure center, can produce up to 20 inches of rain over a three day period. These also occur primarily during the hurricane season, but can occur at other times. This flooding can cause canals and rivers to overflow their banks, and could be aggravated by slightly above normal tides. c. Severe thunderstorms, which are local in nature, can cause flashflood-like isolated flooding from torrential rains, and mayor may not be accompanied by high winds. These usually occur late May to late September, but can occur at any time of the year. II. HAZARDS ANALYSIS AND DEMOGRAPHICS A. Hazards Analysis Annex E, page - 3 T-b-Y-l IlaF3 Collier County Comorehensive Emenrcncv Manal!cment Plan 2008 June 24 2008 1. Hurricanes/tropical storms provide the greatest flood threats to Collier County. A listing of all hurricanes/tropical storms that carne within 75 nautical miles of Naples since 1851 is provided as Appendix 1 to Annex E. The coastal area of Collier County has been exposed to 73 hurricanes/tropical storms since 1851. Type and frequency are as follows: Tropical Storms 40 (I in 3.9 years) CAT I Hurricanes 8 (I in 19.2 years) CAT 1\ Hurricanes 5 (I in 30.6 years) CAT III Hurricanes 16 (I in 9.6 years) CAT IV Hurricanes 4 (I in 38.3 years) CATV Hurricanes -.J) TOTAL 73 (I in 2.1 years) [Hurricane Totals 33 (I in 4.7 years)] Due to the trajectory of these storms, it is estimated that only 3 storms caused significant storrn surge flooding to the Greater Naples urban area. The urban area is defined as that area west of a line from one mile east of Collier Boulevard to the coast. The three storms that generated storm surge flooding were: Oct. 7, 1873 CAT 3 Surge est. 8 to 11 feet MSL Sept. 25,1894 CAT 3 Surge est. 10 to II feet MSL Sept. 10, 1960 CAT 4 Max. Surge N Naples 11.86 feet MSL The Everglades City area has experienced many more flooding events. The most recent occurrence was on September 14, 2002 with Tropical Storm Gabrielle. SAFFIR/SIMPSON SCALE Category Wind Speed * Storm Surge Tropical Storm 39-73 MPH Category I 74-95 MPH Category 2 96-110 MPH Category 3 111-130 MPH Category 4 131-155 MPH Category 5 More than 155 MPH 2-3 feet above NA VD 4-5 feet above NA VD 6-8 feet above NA VD 9-12 feet above NA VD 13-18 feet above NA VD More than 18 Feet *Higher surge values than these can occur in Collier County Residents living along the coast, south and west of US 41 have the most repeated threat potential from hurricanes or tropical storms. According to the University of Florida 2003 Estimate, there are 296,608 residents of Collier County of this total: 272,197 (91.77%) are in a storm surge zone. Annex E. page - 4 T-b'n 10F~ Collier County Comorehensive Emen>:encv Manal!ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 95,804 51,313 99,957 49,534 a. b. c. (32.3%) are in a Category 1 zone. (17.8%) are in a Category 2 zone. (33.7%) are in a Category 3 zone. (16.2%) are in a Category 4/5 zone. A Category 2 land falling or paralleling storm with a storm surge of six to eight feet would force the evacuation of most of the coastal area to the south and west of US41. Goodland, and Isle of Capri residents are particularly vulnerable since there is only one road out of these areas and both are susceptible to flooding when heavy precipitation arnounts coincide with astronomical high tide. A Category 3 storm with a storm surge of 9-12 feet could result in the evacuation of 76%* of the residential population within Collier County. The following hurricane/tropical storms affected coastal Collier County since 1960. (I) Hurricane Donna (Cat 3).1960 - was the last hurricane to affect Collier County to any great degree. It was a paralleling storm that hugged the coast from Everglades City to Bonita Shores. At the time of the hurricane, the County's population was approximately 15,600 including Everglades City and Naples. Storm surge with Donna occurred inland to the intersection of 6th A venue South and 9th Street in the City of Naples. (2) Hurricane Isbell (Cat 2) -1964 - entered the S.W. Florida coast just north of Cape Sable. There was little, if any, flooding associated with this storm over the populated area of the County. (3) Hurricane Alma (Cat 2) -1966 - remained off the west coast of Florida until it made landfall south of Tallahassee. Its closest point of approach was 49 miles WSW of Naples. There are no reports of significant damage to Collier County. (4) Tropical Storm Abby. 1968 - was a paralleling storm off the Collier County coast. It had maximurn winds of 57 knots and made landfall near Charlotte Harbor. No reports of significant flood damage to Collier County. (5) Tropical Storm Jenny - 1969 - had a similar track to Abby. It had maximum winds of 37 knots and made landfall near Sanibel Island. No reports of significant flood damage to Collier County. Annex E, page - 5 T-f05n 10F3 Collier County ComoTehensi ve Emerl!cncv Mana!!cment Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 (6) "No-Name" (Subtropical Storm) - 1974 - The development of this subtropical storm followed by several days the development of a tropical storm near Vera Cruz, Mexico. As the tropical depression weakened, a new center formed in the eastern Gulf of Mexico and rnoved rapidly northeastward to the Tampa Bay area. Sustained winds of 30-40 knots with gusts to 55 knots were reported in the Naples area. Tides of 2-4 feet above normal occurred from Everglades City to Tampa Bay. Total rainfall ranged from 20 inches near Tarnpa to 10 inches elsewhere. There were three drownings in Florida and damage was estimated at $10,000,000 in western Florida. (7) Tropical Storm Dennis - 1981 - made landfall near Cape Sable and exited the peninsula near Daytona Beach. No flood damage to Collier County. Maximum winds 35 knots. (8) Hurricane Alberto (Cat 1) -1982 - was a near miss for Collier County. It formed off the Yucatan Peninsula and began moving NE toward Collier County before turning west and dissipating. Only minor damage reported in Collier County. (9) No-Name Storm (Subtropical storm) - 1982 - developed in the Central Gulf of Mexico and passed substantially to our north making landfall near Cedar Key. There was a considerable amount of beach erosion along the coast from the Lee County line to Marco Island. There were no residential structures destroyed or substantially damaged. Several bulkheads and rock revetments experienced minor darnage in Naples and Marco Island. Several man-made dune structures seaward of the Coastal Construction Control Line (Collier County) received minor damage at Vanderbilt Beach and Marco Island. Darnage was estirnated to be $100,000. (10) Tropical Storm Bob - 1985 - had maximum sustained winds of 40 knots as it made landfall near Lely Barefoot Beach in North Naples. There was widespread flooding throughout the area with rainfall amounts ranging from 7.7" at Naples, 11.6" at Marco Island, 14.5" at Everglades City, to over 22" at the Golden Gate Landfill. Although the sustained winds were only 40 knots, there were several gusts reaching hurricane limits. There were over 1,000 insurance clairns filed, only 100 of thern were for flood damages, the others were the result of wind and water damage. The Ritz Carlton was under construction at the time and most of the drywall had to be replaced. (II) Tropical Storm Keith - 1988 - formed south of Jamaica moved northwestward to the Yucatan Peninsula, before recurring to the northeast. It made landfall near Sarasota. In spite of the storm Annex E, page - 6 T-trn 1&F3 Collier County Comorehensive Emer!!cncv Mana!:!cment Plan 2008 June 24 2008 occurring at lunar high tide, there was little flood damage except to La Playa Inn on Vanderbilt Beach where 17 rooms, kitchen and dining room received sorne water damage. There was extensive erosion along the Naples beaches and the Naples Pier received about $500,000 in damages. (12) Tropical Storm Marco - 1990 - formed in the Florida Straits, south of Key West and moved north before reaching land at Cedar Key. Little damage was reported in Collier County even though the storm passed 43 miles to the west of Naples at time of astronomical high tide. (13) Hurricane Andrew (Cat 5) - 1992 - intensified into a major hurricane east of the Bahamas and made landfall near Hornestead, Florida. The storm traversed the peninsula with the eye-wall rernaining south of Everglades City and Marco Island before recurving towards Louisiana. Some coastal flooding occurred after the storm passed to our east because of strong onshore winds and high tides. Storm surge values were generally between 6-7 feet NA VD along the south coast from Goodland to Chokoloskee Island. (14) Tropical Storm Jerry -1995 - formed in the western Bahamas and moved northward entering the east coast of Florida north of Palm Beach. As it moved northwestward a feeder band remained nearly stationary over southwest Collier County for nearly 18 hours. Twenty-four hour rainfall amounts ranged from 17 inches in East Naples to 6-7 inches in Immokalee. Widespread flooding occurred in East Naples, the City of Naples and Golden Gate from this 100-year storm. Within two days of this extraordinary event, sheet flow flooding from Hendry County and north Collier County created serious flooding problems along the Lee and Collier line in Bonita Springs as well as increased floodwaters in Golden Gate Estates and Immokalee. (15) Hurricane Opal-1995 - formed in the Bay of Compeche in late September. It moved northeastward and deepened into a Category 5 hurricane during the morning hours of October 4th and came ashore near Fort Walton Beach as a Category 3 during the early evening hours on October 4th The associated feeder band, like T.S. Jerry two months prior, dumped several inches of rain on already super saturated areas of North Naples, Big Corkscrew Island and Immokalee. Sheet flow flooding remained over much of the area near Imrnokalee Rd (CR 846) until mid- Novernber. * Annex E, page - 7 T-jem leoF~ Collier County Comnrehensive Emen!Cncv Manal!ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 (16) Tropical Storm Gabrielle- Sept. 13-14,2001- Gabrielle formed a low pressure system that developed along a decaying frontal system near Bradenton. As it moved southward, away frorn the peninsula, it developed Tropical storm characteristics. On Thursday afternoon at 5:00PM, the National Hurricane Center placed all of southwest Florida under a Hurricane Watch. At that time, Gabrielle was 150 miles west southwest of Naples. As it began meandering to the Northeast it intensified into a Tropical Storm with winds of 60 knots. The closest point of approach to Naples (70nm west) occurred on Friday morning at 5:00AM. Although rainfall exceeded 8 inches at several locations throughout the County, precipitation amounts at the Government Center were near 2 inches for the 24 hours preceding the storm. The National Weather Service issued a Coastal Flood Watch for Collier County on Thursday afternoon. Water heights along the shore from the Lee County line to Chokoloskee Island were generally 3-5 ft above normal. It was estimated that approximately 50-60 residences and businesses experienced flooding and most of these structures were built prior to 1978 (pre-FIRM). Water depths in homes and businesses ranged from 1" to 18". The "Vanderbilt Inn on the Gulf" had 18" of water above ground, in Lely Barefoot Beach and along the causeway between Everglades City and Chokoloskee Island were also observed. The Timing of flooding conditions occurred on Friday Morning from approximately 7:30AM in North Naples, 9:30AM in Everglades City. Waters began to recede after noon throughout the coastal area. (17) Hurricanes of 2004 - Hurricane Charley had the greatest direct impact on the residents of Collier County. Its effect on Collier County was that of a F-2 tornado since the hurricane wind field was so small. Only one to two foot of storm surge was reported, having no effect on the infrastructure. Personal property losses approximated $1.5M, mainly lanais. Debris costs to government was approximately $6.0M. No injuries were reported and the damaged area was around North Naples. The greatest general- population impacts of the storm were: loss of power and shortage of fuel for vehicles. Hurricanes Frances and Jeanne affected the northeast portions of the county slightly due mainly to the fact that we were on the dry-side of the hurricanes. One manufactured home in Immokalee sustained major damages from Hurricane Frances. No injuries were reported. No flooding problem was experienced in any of the three hurricanes. Annex E, page - 8 :LieVll 1tcF6 Collier County COffinrehensive EmerlZcncv ManaQ"cment Plan 2008 June 24 2008 (18) Hurricane Wilma - 15-25 October 2005 - Wilma formed and became an extremely intense hurricane over the northwestern Caribbean Sea. It had the all-time lowest central pressure for an Atlantic basin hurricane, and it devastated the northeastern Yucatan Peninsula. Wilma also inflicted extensive damage over southern Florida. Maximum sustained winds were estirnated to be near 105 kt (category 3 intensity) when landfall of the center occurred in southwestern Florida near Cape Romano around 1030 UTC 24 October. Greatest storm surge for Collier County was measured in Everglades City at 5.67 feet caused by the unusually fast forward speed.. The hurricane, continuing to accelerate and now moving at a forward speed of 20 to 25 kt, crossed the southern Florida peninsula in 4.5 hours, with the center emerging into the Atlantic just southeast of Jupiter around 1500 UTe. Because the hurricane rnoved quickly across the southern Florida peninsula, however, the rain amounts were not very large in Florida and storm totals ranged generally frorn 3 to 7 inches. Wilma produces one tornado in Collier. That tornado resulted in the only direct fatality from the Hurricane. Overall, 10 more indirect fatalities resulted from Wilma; mostly due to cleanup efforts. 3. Non-hurricane/Tropical Storm Flooding. Collier County is vulnerable to flooding from canal overflow and ponding. a. Flooding from canal overflow is almost always caused by heavy rains within a drainage area and the subsequent inability of a canal to accommodate the additional runoff. Canal overflow would occur following an extended period of rainfall causing most bodies of water within the County to overflow their banks. The problem would be compounded if abnormally heavy rains were to fall in South and Central Florida. If this were to occur, several highways in the County (US41, SR951, CR8, Everglades Boulevard, Gulf Shore Boulevard, Golden Gate Parkway) could be inundated as well as several residential areas in close proxirnity to canals (Golden Gate City and Estates, Coconut River and those near the Cocahatchee and Gordon Rivers as well as the Henderson Creek area). b. Ponding occurs in low-lying areas that are characterized by poorly drained or super-saturated soils (high water table). This type of flooding in Collier County occurs in the western portion of the County where elevations above sea level are low and the water table is high. c. Fresh water flooding occurred in late June 1992* in North Naples in areas that were not designated as being within the 100-year flood plain. Several homes reported flood darnage in the 700 and 800 blocks of Naples Park between 93rd Ave. North and 108th Ave. North. Additional flooding occurred in the northeastern portion ofIrnperial Golf Estates. Annex E, page - 9 "I~m fraP3 Col\ier County Comorehensive Emen~encv Manallcment Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 (A considerable arnount of work was done in Naples Park in 1996-97 to prevent a recurrence.) d. Summers' Flood Event #1: On September 29,2003, a cold front stalled over central Florida.. .as a tropical disturbance moved from the southwest Caribbean Sea into the Southern Gulf of Mexico. This set up a southwest flow over southern Florida, and allowed for deep tropical moisture to move into south Florida from the Caribbean and southern Gulf of Mexico. Rainfall arnounts between 4 inches to 8 inches fell across Collier County. But western Collier County got the heaviest of the rainfall with locally 8 to 10 inches. Marco Island received 8.10 inches of rainfall, Bonita Springs received 5.00 inches of rainfall, and Naples set an all time daily rainfall record of 6.93 inches. By early afternoon, Collier County Emergency Managernent Officials were asking everyone in western Collier County to stay off the roads if they did not absolutely have to travel as canals were swelling and spilling over their banks, several roads were closed, and houses were starting to flood. There were also reports of people surfing in the streets in the Naples region of western Collier County. By evening, most of the rainfall had ended over Collier County.. .but it took until late Tuesday (September 30, 2003) to get the streets and back yards of houses to dry out. (Baxter, National Weather Service, Miami Florida) Although the high tides at the time of the rain event exacerbated the flooding, the effects were mainly flooded streets and sheet flow/ponding around the area. However, there were no reports of flooding in homes there were several motorists stranded for up to an hour in stalled vehicles. Regarding septic systems, the Dept. of Health said they didn't get may calls and the ones with problems were the older septic design system, not the "mound-type" system. e. Tropical Storm Ernesto & Subsequent High Rainfall (August- September 2006): Tropical Storm Ernesto passed through southwest Florida on August 30, 2006. Although the storm did not bring any damaging wind, the amount of rainfall associated with and following the storm was very severe in parts of Collier County. In west central Collier County, the area lying east of County Road (CR) 951, west of State Road (SR) 29 and south of CR 846 received the brunt of rainfall. Nuisance flooding in low lying areas and inundation of roads in several parts of Northern Golden Gate Estates (NGGE) brought inconvenience to the residents of those areas. Hydrologic conditions of the central Collier County region had been wetter than norrnal prior to the storm. Beginning from July. the regional groundwater level started to rise above the long term average levels, and this trend continued to the end of the August. Such soggy antecedent rnoisture and saturated groundwater conditions could not absorb the high intensity rainfall and generated significant runoff with flash flooding and street inundation in several low lying areas of NGGE and adjacent outlying areas. Of particular note is the Rock Road - Acremaker Road area between Richards Road and Annex E, page - 10 T-fem {~3 Collier County Comnrehensive Emenzencv Manal!ement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 Moulder Drive, south of CR 846, where the residents were inconvenienced for several days due to inundation of roads and yards. During the period August I to September 25, between 22.0 to 32.5 inches of rain fell generally in the GGE area. No homes were known to become flooded during this rain event. B. Physical Characteristics Collier County is located on the southwest coast of Florida. Lee and Hendry Counties border it on the north, on the east by Miami-Dade and Broward, on the south by Monroe County and on the west by the Gulf of Mexico. 1. It has 2,034 square miles of land area of which approximately 50 miles front on the Gulf of Mexico. 2. The topography of the land is basically flat ranging from 2-5 feet along the coast to 35-40 in the northeast section of the county near Irnmokalee. 3. There are no major rivers within the county. Most are south of US41 into the Ten Thousand Islands. The Gordon River enters into Naples Bay and extends northward to the vicinity of the Naples Airport. The Cocahatchee River in North Naples enters into the Gulf of Mexico via Wiggins Pass. The headwaters of each river are south and west ofI-75. Water areas are comprised of man-made lakes, canals, and water retention areas with only a few natural lakes. 4. The average elevation of the County is approximately 10-11 feet. However the average elevation of the highly developed areas of the urban area is 7-8 feet. 5. Poor drainage conditions exist in the western and southern areas of the County where the water table is high. During periods of heavy rain over extended periods of time, rnost natural and man-made bodies of water may overflow resulting in flooding. If this were to occur, several highways in the County (US41, CR951, SR92, SR29, Golden Gate Parkway, Everglades Boulevard) could be inundated as well as roads in several residential areas. C. Land Use Patterns 1. There are twelve planning community areas within the unincorporated area of the County. The Naples urban area is bounded by the Gulf of Mexico to the west and south, CR846 to the north, and CR/SR95I to the east. The urban area consists of 7 of the 12 planning comrnunities. Commercial areas are found along US41 from CR951 to the Lee County line, CR951 and Golden Gate Parkway in Golden Gate, Airport Road south of Golden Gate Parkway, North Collier Blvd. on Marco Island, and Main Street in Immokalee. The remainder of the urban area consists of single and multi-farnily residential areas. The Rural Estates Planning Community and the western portion of the Annex E, page - 11 . "-~,_._._~--~- ~'-'--- -::Gc:rn ~c&=3 Collier County Comnrehensive Emen2:cncv ManalZcment Plan 2008 June 24 2008 Royal Fakapalm are primarily agricultural as are portions of the Corkscrew Planning Committee. Big Cypress is primarily undeveloped, protected wetlands. 2. Intensity of development within the County urban area is low, ranging from 3-6 dwelling units per acre. The only exceptions to this are Park Shore, Pelican Bay, Vanderbilt, and Marco Island beachfront property where density is 12-16 units per acre. D. Demographics (See Basic Plan, Figure #3) III. Concept of Operations A2encv A. This program is based on the principle that the County bears the initial responsibility for disaster response and recovery. As a corollary to this principal, each level within local government will accomplish the functions for which it is responsible, requesting relief frorn the next higher level of government only after resources at that level are inadequate to respond to the flood emergency or disaster. Requests for assistance will be made to the Division of Emergency Management only after the Board of County Cornmissioners has adopted a State of Local Emergency. B. The Ernergency Management Director may activate portions of the plan, if a flood disaster/emergency threatens, prior to the Board of County Commissioner's decision to issue a Declaration of State of Local Emergency. In this situation, the Ernergency Management Department will coordinate increased readiness procedures and such emergency response actions as might be necessary for the immediate protection of life and property. c. When State and local resources are determined to be inadequate to the flood emergency, the Governor will request assistance through the Federal Ernergency Management Agency. The request will be based on local and state damage assessments and expenditure reports that are to be maintained and supplied by the County and/or State for each flood disaster related activity. D. When conditions are favorable for flooding from either storm surge flooding or from fresh water flooding from the normal amounts of precipitation over a short period of time, the following actions will be taken by the agencies listed below: Action Responsibilitv Emergency Management (ESF-S) 1. To staff the Emergency Operations Center as the situation dictates. 2. Maintain the emergency contact name/number listing for those responsible for day-to-day operation of a facility/activity. 3. To notify all primary respondents as the situation dictates. 4. To advise the public of the situation through local radio and TV announcements. Annex E, page - 12 3 -tYh /rJ='5 Collier County COffiorehensive Emerl!encY Manat!ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 5. To keep the Division of Emergency Management and other state agencies and adjacent counties informed of the situation. School Board (ESF-6) To provide shelter and bus transportation. American Red Cross (ESF-6) 1. To provide damage assessment information. 2. To provide manpower and supplies for opening and operation of shelters and to coordinate with Emergency Management Department regarding the timing of such openings consistent with the dangers facing the people who will occupy the shelter. 3. To provide Mobile Feeding. 4. To provide immediate human needs relief, e.g., shelter, food, clothing etc. Collier County Sheriff's Office (ESF-I6) To provide traffic control and security for those in the flood threatened area and shelter security. Fire/Rescue Districts (ESF-4) 1. To provide fire control and suppression throughout the County. 2. To provide rescue service as needed. 3. To provide fire safety control at each shelter. 4. To alert and coordinate Community Ernergency Response Team (CERT) responses. Collier County EMS (ESF-8) 1. To provide ambulance/rescue service. 2. To provide first-aid support at each shelter. Transportation/Road Dept (ESF-3) 1. To assist in traffic control from the threatened area to safe refuge. 2. To assist in performing flood control measures. 3. To install traffic barriers to prevent non-essential traffic from entering flooded areas. Transportation (Storm Water Management) (ESF-3) 1. To control water flow levels in all canals maintained by the County. 2. To conduct post-flooding analysis/mapping. Collier County Health Dept. (ESF-8) Annex E, page - 13 I-bn I~ Collier County Comorehensive Emerilencv Manal!ement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 To provide health and environmental health services CERA (R.A.C.E.S.) (ESF-2) To provide emergency communications support between the E.O.C., hospitals, and public shelters. Civil Air Patrol (ESF-2) To provide communications, search and rescue, and damage assessment support. Salvation Army (ESF-6) To provide mobile feeding sites. D. Meteorological information will be obtained from the Tropical Prediction Center for all flood threats resulting from tropical storms and hurricanes. Miami Weather (NWS), co-located with the Tropical Prediction Center, will issue flood advisories that may affect Collier County. Both weather agencies will contact the Collier Ernergency Management Department via telephone or ESA TCOM. Additionally, the EOC obtains meteorological information and images via satellite and private meteorological services. Information may also be transrnitted by the statewide facsimile network and by PACKET radio from Miami Weather to the EOC. 1. The Emergency Satellite Communications System (ESATCOM) will be the primary means of receiving advance notification of possible flooding conditions. The satellite weather receiver and the weather services contractor will provide corroboration of advisories received from Miami Weather and/or the Tropical Prediction Center. 2. Hurricanes and their related storm surge and precipitation arnounts provide the greatest flood threat to citizens of the County. Therefore, all tropical advisories will be monitored and plotted on the hurricane-tracking chart in the EOC and in the main corridor for the general public. 3. The Tropical Prediction Center (TPC) issues advisories at least at six-hour intervals during the progress of all tropical depressions, storms, and hurricanes. The NHC also issues tropical and hurricane "Watch" or "Warnings" for specified coastal areas. a. When a watch or warning has been issued for Southwest Florida, the Emergency Managernent Director will assess the situation and if appropriate, call a briefing session with all concerned agencies. Annex E, page - 14 T~ IlePs Collier County COffiorehensi ve Emere:encv Manallement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 b. The Public Information Officer (PIO) in coordination with the Board of County Commissioners and Emergency Management Department will begin issuing news advisories. c. Depending on the situation, all advisories received from Miami Weather and the Tropical Prediction Center will be retransmitted via Blast Fax to all public safety and media outlets that service Collier County. These advisories will be aired immediately. d. Announcement of pertinent information in the Collier County "All Hazards Guide" and the local telephone book will be brought to the public's attention. These spot announcements to the various media sources will attempt to reinforce the ongoing educational effort during the year. e. The Emergency Management Director provides information to the general public upon demand. The departrnent provides at least 100 hurricane seminars per year. In each seminar, storm surge vulnerability is stressed, along with flood insurance requirements and methods to mitigate against any damage from flooding. In these talks to the community, evacuation routes and shelters are also made available. f. During periods of Emergency Operation Center activations, WSGL-FM* (local EAS station) and local Governrnent Access (Channel 11/16) will broadcast directly from the EOC. All other rnedia sources will be fed information from the EOC to the adjoining media room and also via facsimile to the various media outlets within the County. 4. Since the main flood threat to Collier County residents is from hurricanes/tropical storms, every effort will be rnade to educate the public concerning this threat. Meetings with schools, civic and religious groups, fraternal organizations, homeowner associations, etc. will accomplish this formal education process. Additional tips will be provided via radio "spots" and helpful hints to the daily and/or weekly papers. In all of their presentations, the following items must be stressed: a. Areas that are particularly vulnerable to flooding frorn Riverine flooding or storm surge. b. The use of pre-disaster checklists c. Flood and homeowners insurance d. Preparedness tips to minimize disaster related losses e. Shelter locations and evacuation routes f. Recovery information Annex E, page - 15 T-ftTn J~ Collier County Comorehensive Emcn!ency ManaQcment Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 g. Point of contact for additional information E. Requests for State Assistance must be forwarded to the State Emergency Operations Center for assessment and approval before deployrnent of State resources. Prior to requesting State Assistance, the current situation must be identified, the current and projected resource needs must be assessed, and a time frame indicating how long state resources would be needed must be identified. IV. Execution This Annex to the Comprehensive Ernergency Management Plan addresses the Collier County Flood Warning Program through the following elements: Public Information, Flood Threat Recognition Phase, Emergency Warning Dissemination and Other Response Efforts. A. Public Information Increasing the public's awareness of flood hazards and the methods they can use for protecting themsel ves from the effects of these hazards is a necessary part of reducing disaster potential, preparing for disasters as well as a continuing responsibility of public officials. In addition, providing accurate information immediately before, during and after a flood emergency or disaster is very irnportant for saving lives, minimizing damage, and informing people of various assistance programs. This Annex describes the organization and procedures for providing accurate information to the public. 1. Responsibilities: The Emergency Managernent Department is responsible for coordinating public information programs and related activities with regard to flood emergencies or disasters. This responsibility includes public awareness programs in schools, civic and fraternal organizations, community subdivisions and other organized groups including radio and television when requested. 2. The Public Information Network, comprised of members of the following agencies, will meet periodically before, during and after a flood emergency to minimize conflicting information being disseminated. Members of the network who have assigned public relations tasks include but are not limited to the following: a. Board of County Commissioners b. County Manager or his representative c. Emergency Management Director d. Stormwater Management Director e. SFWMD - Big Cypress Basin Director f. Superintendent of Schools or his representative g. Red Cross Disaster Chairman h. Transportation Services Administrator I. Sheriff or his representative Annex E, page - 16 ::r::b"Y1 1~3 Collier County Comorehensive Emen:!encv ManalZement Plan 2008 June 24, 2008 J. President, Fire Chiefs' Association k. Communications & Customer Relations 3. An "All Hazards Guide" is updated and reprinted during May of each year for distribution to residents and guests of Collier County. Approxirnately 70,000 copies of this pamphlet are printed and distributed annually. Every effort is made to deliver this information to people living in flood-prone areas. Disaster related information is also provided to recipients of the local telephone system in their books. 4. Special information programs have been established for people with special needs such as the elderly and the handicapped. These individuals are encouraged to pre-register with the Emergency Management Department who will advise them of their vulnerability to flooding and iterns that they should bring to a shelter in the event of an evacuation. The Ernergency Management Department will also arrange for transportation to shelter if needed. 5. During an emergency/disaster that might result in flooding over parts of the community, a team of telephone operators will be assembled near the EOC to provide information to the public. At least one of the operators will be bilingual (English-Spanish). B. Flood Threat Recognition Phase This phase may have several pre-disposing conditions whereby any or all of those conditions being absent rnay not warrant a flood threat concern. The following conditions, compounded, increase the flood threat concern and result in the associated Ernergency Operations Center activation level. a. Saturated grounds due to prolonged rainy periods whereby absorption into the soil is hindered or a period of three to five inches of rain has fallen within 48 hours and more rain is anticipated. a. High tides occurring during the heaviest rainy periods. a. A series of rain clouds producing a "training effect" over an area. 1. Level Three, Monitoring Phase a. Emergency Management will: a. Monitor the flooding potential and disseminate the information to those most affected via means identified in the Basic Plan, e.g., NOAA Weather Radio (EAS), Emergency E-Mail, Blast fax lists for government entities and vulnerable areas such as mobile home parks, etc. Annex E, page - 17 :r'4erh IltF3 Collier County COffiorehensive EmcfI!cncY Manallcment Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 b. Collaborate with both the National Weather Service Office in Miami and the State Warning Point on the flooding event potential. c. Using GIS-type mapping products depicting areas susceptible to past flooding events, alert response agencies based on the weather forecasts. d. Activate the Collier Storm Spotter/Skywam network either based on the daily Hazardous Weather Outlook product of the National Weather Service or when weather situations deteriorate. e. Initiate conference calls with the various fire districts, as needed. 2. Transportation Division will rnaintain 24-hrs X 7-day capability to respond to public regarding roadway concerns. C. Emergency Warning Dissemination During this phase the National Weather Service Office, Miami has issued a "Flood Watch" and the conditions cited above are the most unfavorable for the grounds absorbing a heavy rainfall arnount and therefore roadway flooding, etc., will present hazardous/adverse conditions to the public. 1. Level Two, Partial Activation a. Ernergency Management will: 1) Continue with all activities in the Threat Recognition Stage. 2) Provide regular updates via E-mail/Blastfax/Web Page to staff and the local governmental agencies. 3) Assemble complete EOC staff and brief at the initial stages of Level 2 Activation, depending on the anticipated severity of the event. 4) Consider activating the Collier Information Center. 5) Monitor the flooding event and disseminate details of the impacts via all means identified in the "Basic Plan". 6) Continue to collaborate with both the National Weather Service Office in Miami, the State Warning Point on the flooding event potential and adjacent counties. Annex E, page - 18 'I~ )~P3 Collier County COffinrehensive Emcmcncy Manal!cmcnt Plan 2008 June 24 2008 7) Activate the SkyWam Weather Spotter Network to report rainfall impacts. 8) Pre-identify and coordinate shelter openings, as required 9) Initiate actions for a Local State of Emergency, if warranted. b. Municipal liaisons will maintain be requested to rnonitor the event's impact on their jurisdiction from the EOC. c. Collier Schools will be asked to remain at the EOC while school delay/closing decisions are anticipated/made. I) Collier Fire Chiefs will alert their CERTs regarding impact reporting and first responder assistance requirements. e. American Red Cross will: I) Open shelters as requested. 2) Provide humanitarian services, as necessary. 3) Provide a liaison to the EOC, as requested. 4) Keep the Emergency Managernent office advised on the findings from the Damage Assessment. f. Collier Sheriff will: I) Provide liaison to EOC when requested. 2) Coordinate traffic activities g. Transportation Division will: I) Provide a liaison to the EOC to maintain an accurate, current listing of affected roadways. 2) Take reports from the public regarding flooding (774-8924/25) and maintain flooding records. 3) Blockade flooded roadways as necessary. 4) Submit projects and mitigation initiatives to the Mitigation Committee when called. D. Other Response Elements Annex E, page - 19 ::r:-br> I~ Collier County Comnrehensive Emenlencv Mana2ement Plan 2008 June 24. 2008 1. Skywarn Spotter Network: In support of the National Weather Service Office, Miami, Collier County conducts hazardous weather spotter training to residents annually, or upon special request of the Emergency Management Office. At this time, there are about 150 trained spotters. The spotters receive regular weather infonnation updates from the EOC, via E-mail, and through the other media. 2. Emergency Email Network (www.emergencyemail.org): This group automatically disseminates the NWS's text weather warning products related to Collier County. Recipients of this free service can subscribe any or all their electronic instruments to it. Additionally, the EOC has access to transmit special statements via this service to all subscribers. 3. Cable Override: The Emergency Management Office has been given the telephone numbers and passwords to access both the cable television networks audio systems and thereby trigger separate EAS activations. Not only is the general public alerted, so are the specialized teams, e.g., SkyWarn and Amateur radio, CERTs. 4. Emergency Alerting System: The EOC has drafted an operating procedure, agreed upon by the NWS, Miami, for activating the Emergency Alerting System and thereby transmits warning and instructions via the weather radio, TV, radio, and cable media. Not only is the general public alerted, so are the specialized teams, e.g., SkyWarn and Amateur radio, CERTs. V. Administration A. Records Preservation and Restoration I. All County Agencies must ensure the protection of vital records so that normal activities may continue after the disaster. These records may also be necessary for the rapid recovery from the effects of a flood disaster. 2. Damage to records is most often the result of fire and water darnage. These records can often be saved by prompt salvage action. Technical guidance for records preservation can be obtained frorn the Emergency Managernent Department or the State Division of Emergency Managernent. B. Funding and Accounting 1. Collier County may allocate and expend funds as appropriate for local emergency operations. Depending on the onset of hazardous weather conditions, either of the following mechanisms may be implemented: a. Local Accounting Complete accurate accounts of emergency expenditures and obligations, including personnel and equipment costs, must be maintained. Despite Annex E, page - 20 -::J1crn Jf.oF3 Collier County Comorehensive Ememencv Mana2'ement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 the difficulty in maintaining such records in the stress of an ernergency, accurate accounting is required to identify and docurnent: 1) Funds for which Federal reimbursement will be requested should a Presidential Declaration be made and, 2) Those funds eligible for reirnbursement under emergency or major disaster project applications. b. Cost Centers Given the tirne and the urgency of the threat, the Emergency Management Director may ask the Office of Management & Budget, via the County Manager, to establish and fund any, or all of the following types of cost centers: I) Departmental- This cost center will be used to fund all normal departrnental activities in response to, or associated with, the hazardous weather event. 2) Debris Removal - This cost center draw will be lirnited only to those activities associated with debris removal, e.g., contractor services or force labor. 3) Emergency Management - This fund will be directly managed by the Emergency Management OfficelEOC Operations. This fund will be used for indirect expenses in response to the event for those items/activities not normally performed by day-to-day government, e.g., shelter operations, outfitting impact assessment teams with safety gear, etc. 2. Governmental/private non-profit agencies not under the Board of County Commissioners, should establish cost-capture mechanisms similar to that described above. When the EOC is activated, all agencies should regularly, or upon request, report their expenditures so that the total budgetary impact to the County can be related to the State Emergency Operations Center. C. Exercises & Drills 1. General: Generally, during the Statewide Hurricane Exercise, elements of the Flood Warning Program will be tested and the Post -Exercise Report will highlight those relevant portions of the plan. If the State opts not to conduct a Statewide Hurricane Exercise in the course of a year, then the County Ernergency Management Director will develop and conduct it. Exercises and drills must be conducted at least annually to verify the flood warning program and the skills of emergency response personnel. Results of these exercises and drills provide a Annex E, page - 21 :r: -ti'Y7 I&F$ Collier County Comnrehensi ve Emer~encv Manal!ement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 basis for changes to the flood warning program, implementing procedures, and for further scheduling of training for response personnel. A real-world flooding type event can fulfill the exercise requirement providing a written After Action Critique was accomplished and timelines for corrective actions were established. 2. Concept of Operations: a. Exercise: An exercise is an event that tests the integrated response capability and major elements within the flood warning program. The emergency preparedness exercise will simulate a flood emergency that may result in massive evacuation and sheltering. Exercises will be conducted as part of the FEMA 4-year exercise plan and / or the Statewide Hurricane exercise scheduled between April and June of each year. b. There are three types of exercises: I) Full scale exercise is designed to fully demonstrate the emergency capabilities of appropriate agencies and organizations. Mobilization of local personnel and resources will be demonstrated. 2) Functional exercise is designed to demonstrate one or more functions or capabilities specified in the flood warning program. Mobilization of local personnel and resources will be limited. 3) Table-top exercise is a simulation in which response activities are discussed. There is no mobilization of emergency personnel and resources. c. Scheduling and Scenario Development I) Exercises will be scheduled jointly by the response agencies and the Emergency Management Department. Scenarios will be developed with inputs frorn all participating agencies. Scenarios will be varied from year to year such that all major elements of the flood-warning program are tested during a four-year period. The scenarios will include, but not be limited to the following: (a) Objectives of the exercise and appropriate evaluation criteria, (b) Date, time, place and participating organizations, (c) The simulated event, (d) A time schedule of real and simulated events, Annex E, page - 22 :I--lO'YI1&F-3 Collier County COffinrehensive Emen!:encv Manal2ement Plan 2008 June 24 2008 (e) A narrative summary describing the conduct of the exercises, and (f) A description of arrangements for advance materials to be provided to observers. d. Critiques and Reports: A critique will be conducted after each exercise to evaluate the capability of each participating agency to implement plans and procedures. e. Drills: A drill is a supervised instruction of a supervised instruction period aimed at developing, testing, monitoring technical skills necessary to perform emergency response operations. In addition to the required exercise, drills will be accomplished at the frequencies listed below: I) Communications between the shelters and the EOC will be conducted at least annually before the hurricane and/or flood season. Communications between agencies, State and other EOCs are conducted daily. The tests of communications with on-scene tearns will be part of the flood exercise. 2) Medical drills involving simulated injuries will be conducted as part of the exercise. D. Program Maintenance and Auxiliary Activation of the Collier County Flood Warning The Emergency Management Department will maintain and update this program annually or as required. The program review will be accomplished by May 1st of each year. Portions of this prograrn will be activated periodically in order to conduct exercises as part of the review process. E.
