Documentation of Offsite Participation in Annual Exercise
Dear Kent:
As promised, enclosed is the feedback requested from our offsite jurisdictions concerning their participation in the 1989 SONGS Annual Exercise. As you know, this Exercise was designed to meet the requirement for an unannounced exercise among all onsite and offsite emergency response facilities, as well as to demonstrate all major elements of the SONGS Emergency Plan as reflected in the scope and objectives previously approved by both NRC and FEMA.
I note this documentation is somewhat more comprehensive than your team requested, but we encouraged them to be as thorough as time would permit, given a requested reply date of November 1, in identifying the scope of their participation, as well as including the results of any self-evaluations.
In addition to the enclosed reports, it is noted the USMC at Camp Pendleton participated despite emergency responses to wildland fires, the San Francisco earthquake, and a major on-Base exercise.
Also, the California Highway Patrol provided a full response complement in six locations including San Diego, Oceanside, San Juan Capistrano, Santa Ana and Edison's Emergency News Center and Emergency Operations Facility.
This information is provided for your Exercise files with the anticipation it will be included in some form in your formal Exercise Report to the credit of the SONGS offsite response jurisdictions, some of whom were engaged in actual emergency response activities as reflected in their reports.
Please advise if you have any questions.
Very truly yours, Enclosures cc:

October 30, 1989 County of Orange Fire/Emergency Management Division 180 South Water Street Orange, CA 92666 County Evaluation of SONGS Exercise October 23, 1989 I.
INTRODUCTION On October 23, 1989 the County of Orange Emergency Organization participated in a biennial emergency exercise of it's plans to respond to an emergency at San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station.
In addition to County agencies the following jurisdictions also participated in the exercise:
City of San Clemente City of San Juan Capistrano California State Department of Parks and Beaches County of San Diego U.S. Marine Corps at Camp Pendleton It is the opinion of those County agencies participating that the exercise was successful.
There was good representation of all County agencies/departments as identified in the SONGS Response Plan.
The areas in which the County Emergency Operations Centers (EOC) excelled were:
- High level of cooperative decision making between County executive management was prevalent throughout the exercise.
- Protective action recommendations were accurately written and public alert and warning systems were activated well within the time limits set by Nu Reg 0654.
- All EOC participants were timely informed of the changing emergency situation and plant status.
- The EOC was activated and operational at 1005, 45 minutes from the Alert notification without prior notification of the date and time. Many EOC'Staff were at their work stations within 30 minutes.
EOC informational displays were functional and provided adequate visual representation of the situation.
Communication systems all functioned well (ie., ODAC radios, -ENC to EOC, EOC to EOF)
Liaison activities between the County EOC and the SONGS EOF were carried out continually and effectively.
All stated objectives were met.
Decisions were appropriate for the situations and made in a timely manner.
Notifications were made in a timely fashion, and where necessary alternative mechanisms for notifications were used effectively.
ODAC coordination with the County EOC and offsite jurisdictions provided adequate information for the decision making process.
Orange County was also handling emergency mutual aid requests due to the Bay Area earthquake during this exercise.
II. OBJECTIVES As per a letter of 9-1-89 from Robert Vicker, Regional Director, FEMA Region XI, the agreed upon objectives for the exercise were:
Group A 1-15 Group B 16, 18, 20, 22 Group C 36 with OES requesting 26 The County of Orange met each of these objectives in accordance with the criteria identified in FEMA Guidance Memorandum EX-3.
In particular, objectives 12 and 13 (public alert and notification) were thoroughly adequately demonstrated.
These have been our weakest areas in the past.
The decision making process for protective actions, sounding of the alert sirens, and release of an approved EBS message took a total of only-t2ftinutes. This is far superior to past performances.
Additionally, due-to hard copy (FAX) transmissions of the EBS message, there were no discrepancies between San Diego County and Orange County's messages. The entire EBS process met Nu Reg 0654 time requirements.
Objective 15, activation of Rumor Control and notification of Special Needs Population, was simulated due to the Bay Area earthquake.
2
This position was to be staffed by volunteers from the American Red Cross (ARC) and using the established list of the special needs population in South County, these volunteers were to randomly telephone the individuals listed and update existing records.
Since the ARC had committed it's volunteers to the earthquake relief effort this objective was simulated.
III. AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT Despite the County's excellent performance in this exercise, there is always room for improvement.
In this instance the following areas have been identified:
a)
Strengthen alternative notification procedures (individual agencies' call-out lists) and further develop communication between GSA Communications and other County.agency/departments to update notification lists.
Discussion: During the initial notification process for the unannounced exercise there were some problems with the telephone system in, notifying END.
Orange County Fire Dispatch was used as an alternative with no delay in response.
ODAC was notified late due to a recent change in phone numbers and office location.
Procedures will be developed to attempt to prevent such occurrences in the future.
b)
More training will be conducted with EOC staff to emphasize the audit trail and documentation process.
Discussion: Although the decision to administer KI was
- made, announced, and appropriate agencies simulated a response the agencies verbally responded that their emergency workers were issued and administered KI.
Documentation and record keeping for this activity could be stronger.
A recommendation will be made to the Health Officer to review the Health Care Agency's procedures.
c)
Refine the systems used to 'send hard copy of the EBS messages to the other offsite jurisdictions. Recommend a high speed FAX with group call, auto dial, and memory.
Discussion: The system used for this exercise was somewhat cumbersome and needs to be refined as to process and equipment.
There was some confusion when some of the 3
offsite jurisdictions did not-receive the second page of some transmissions. Additionally, refined procedures for use and more staff familiarity with the equipment should assist staff in the use of this technology.
d)
Continue the development of staff checklists for responsibilities during emergencies at SONGS with emphasis upon the EOF liaison position.
Discussion: The Operational Area Coordinator (OAC),
Director of Field Operations (DFO),
and Emergency Management Division (EMD) staff checklists, newly developed for this exercise, worked well.
A checklist with the appropriate prompts for the EMD Manager and EOF liaison -could further strengthen the communications between the County EOC and EOF.
(Note:
These communications are not conducted over the Yellow Telephone.)
e)
Revise the existing SONGS Plan.
Discussion:
Due to organizational changes in the County's Basic Emergency Plan and normal government changes over a period of time, many areas of the SONGS Plan have been identified as needing to be updated.
This process will begin in January, 1990.
f)
Improve the training of FM communicators for ODAC.
Discussion:
During the course of the exercise, FM communicators had many questions regarding policies and procedures for their position.
Recommend increased training for all FM Communicators. Rad Mon teams should all be trained to perform the duties of FM communicator.
Additionally all should be rotated through that function during the quarterly ODAC exercise conducted by SONGS.
IV. CONCLUSION To summarize, the County of Orange response to the recent unannounced SONGS Emergency exercise was excellent in all major areas.
The staff was notified and the EOC was operational in under one hour.
All EOC participants were fully briefed as to their responsibilities.
The Director of Field Operations also convened periodic briefings to set priorities and review response status.
The identified objectives were met and staff was able to. manage real emergency requests at the same time. Because the EMD*Manager handled the more technical aspects of the yellow telephone 4
communications, the Operational Area Coordinator (OAC) had the opportunity to maintain consistently strong command and control.
From all reports, this was the most organized and effective SONGS exercise to date.

However, earlier this month an Emergency Services Coordinator was hired and the City is developing an Emergency Services Program. For this SONGS
- exercise, the Dana Point Emergency Services Coordinator participated as an observer throughout the day, devoting 100% of his time to the exercise.h The internal objective for Dana Point during this exercise was for the Emergency Services Coordinator (ESC) to visit SONGS and as many of the local jurisdictions as possible to observe the respective rinternal and coordinated operations. The ESC accomplished this by visiting the Emergency Operations Facility eo at the onset of the exercise and then proceeding to the Emergency Operations Centers (EOC) of San Clemente, San Juan Capistrano, and Orange County. From there he went to the Emergency News Center (ENC) and finally returned to-the EOF for the conclusion of the exercise and the immediate debriefing.
It was 'extremely beneficial and informative for Dana Point to have the unique opportunity to -observe this exercise at the various locations. The observations made and the comments received will be included in the development of the City's-.

Dear Ken:
Re:
1989 SONGS Annual Exercise I've attached an explanation of the objectives that the state met during the October exercise.
By virtue of activation of the State Operations Center in response to the earthquake, we are also taking credit for meeting some of the exercise objectives.
The only inadequacy noted was inaccurate listings of responsibilities for the EOF and ODAC staff in our procedures in the State emergency plan.
This did not impact our ability to respond.
The appropriate procedures and checklists will be updated to reflect current EOF and ODAC state staff responsibilities to avoid possible confusion in the future.
If you have any comments or questions please call me at (916) 427 4013.

Dear Inter-jurisdictional Planning Committee Member:
Attached is our report on the Orange County Chapter, American Red Cross participation in the 1989 San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station Biennial Graded Exercise.
We appreciate the great cooperation we received from all the involved jurisdictions in coordinating our response to a simulated emergency.
Please contact us if you have any questions regarding our participation or suggestions for improvement.

AMERICAN RED CROSS -
ORANGE COUNTY CHAPTER P.O. Box 11364 Santa Ana, CA 92711 Self Evaluation of S.O.N.G.S. Exercise, October 23, 1989 SECTION I The daytime unannounced aspect of this exercise was a particular challenge for a volunteer.agency. Many volunteers are unable to obtain release time from their jobs for a drill. Despite this obstacle and extensive involvement in support of the San Francisco earthquake relief operations, we fared very well.
Our EOC operations were staffed to 85% of ideal conditions.
This was possible through months of planning. In preparing to participate in the exercise, we conducted six training sessions.
Two were on how our EOC operates when activated. One of these was specifically for paid staff and one for volunteers.
Three training sessions were conducted on how the S.O.N.G.S.
operates and our role specifically in the plant's offsite emergency plan. Two of these were conducted for paid staff and one for volunteers.
In addition, a group of thirty-six volunteers visited the plant training center, toured the EOF, and heard a presentation on plant operations.
The extent of play was predesigned as follows:
EXTENT OF PLAY EOC = Emergency operation Center EOF = Emergency Operation Facility (at the plant)
FSA = Function Support Area (one for each Function represented in the Red Cross EOC)
DWI = Disaster Welfare Inquiry SCE = Southern California Edison (utility operating the plant)
ENC = Emergency News Center (at SCE building in El Toro)
- 1. All notifications made and communications made and communications channels tested:
- a. Orange County Chapter Leadership
- b. Regional Red Cross Chapters
- c. Red Cross Western Operations Headquarters
- 2. Red Cross EOC, FSA's for Disaster Health Services, DWI, Mass Care, and Government Liaison, City and County EOC's,
EOF, and ENC ned as prescribed in plan
- 3. Fully activate one Reception and Care Center at UCI.
- 4. Dispatch four shelter managers to contact remaining four designated Reception and Care Center facility personnel and complete brief survey.
(See attached completed surveys.)
- 5. Simulate DWI process by doing phone survey of people in Emergency Planning Zone listed on cards asking for assistance in evacuation to verify information (from county of Orange EOC).
All of these aspects were played out except that not all chapter leadership notifications were made. Our 85%
activation included staffing Officers for Damage Assessment, Mass Care, Government Liaison, Health Services, Office of Volunteers, and Public Affairs. As well, Function Support Areas (FSA's) were staffed, one each for Health Services, Mass Care, and Government Liaison. Message runners and status board plotters were also staffed.
For-the first time, representatives from the County of Orange Department of Social Services (OCDSS) were represented to coordinate Reception and Care Centers with Mass Care.
SECTION II The following are the stated objectives, including both internal and FEMA related, for the 1989 S.O.N.G.S. Exercise.
- 2. Demonstrate the ability to fully activate one Reception and Care Center in cooperation with the O.C. Department of Social Services utilizing the new Mass Care supply trailer.
- 3. Reinforce our relationship with all four other Reception and Care Centers by making contacts with the corresponding school district and school site personnel, coordinating with the O.C. Department of Social Services.
4.. Demonstrate the adequacy of alerting and notification procedures and communication capabilities to notify and mobilize emergency response personnel.
- 5. Update information cards for handicapped residents in the Emergency Planning Zone by activating volunteers to make phone calls from the County of Orange EOC the day of the drill.
Several FEMA objectives were met wholly or in part by the Orange County Chapter. The specific FEMA objectives met are as follows:
With participants uninformed as to the day or time of the drill, the activation of our EOC within 35 minutes and
coducting of oar operations exercised F@ Objectives 2, 5, and 36 (Unafounced, not off-hours compent of 36).
We fully activated one Reception and Care Center in cooperation with the OCDSS at University of California, Irvine. This included a team of six volunteers and the movement of a 40 foot Mass Care supply trailer. The latter was accomplished in 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> 15 minutes from initial phone call to arrival at UCI. This trailer contains 612 cots, 480 blankets, and supplies for two shelters. This is one component of our supply resources which has the capability of supporting 32,shelters housing 5,000 evacuees on cots with blankets. Of course, additional resources are available from outside Orange County within the Red Cross system.
A simulated activation of three of the four remaining Reception and Care Centers at Orange Coast College and Tustin and Edison High Schools was accomplished by a volunteer contacting responsible persons at each site and completing a questionnaire. Santa Ana High School was not visited in the time frame of the drill but would have been accomplished easily within an additional hour during an actual incident. The elapse time from when the first shelter manager was activated until the final survey was completed was 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> and 15 minutes. These two tasks exercised FEMA Objectives 21 and 22.
We assigned two Red Cross Public Information Officers (PIO's) to the Emergency News Center to coordinate media relations with other jurisdictions' and agencies' PIO's, supporting FEMA Objective 14.
We assigned two volunteers to help contact persons who had filed a "Request for Special Assistance" to verify information, supporting FEMA Objective 18.
In addition to the stated objectives above, the following objectives and exercise associated tasks were accomplished:
A Mass Care feeding team fed the Red Cross EOC, the County of Orange EOC, and the fully activated shelter at UCI.
Government Liaisons were dispatched-to the three government EOC's and the EOF.
For the first time we acted on our agreement with the Teamster's Union to activate a tractor truck to move one of our two 40 foot Mass Care supply trailers on short notice.
Due to the unannounced nature of-the drill, several paid staff who are not part of the Disaster Emergency Services department were trained and participated. Most of these had had no involvement prior to this year other than a brief overview of the SONGS operation and emergency plan.
In addition to this being an unannounced exercise, the Orange County Chapter was especially taxed as we were engaged in coordinating our support of the disaster relief
operation for San Francisco earthquake These efforts included receiving over 3,000 Information Wquiries, processing 30 formal Disaster Welfare Inquiries, and sending two vans and seven personnel to the Bay area.
Information Inquiries consist of talking with concerned friends and family of Bay area residents and helping to alleviate their fears and suggest alternative methods of determining the welfare of loved ones.- Disaster Welfare Inquiries are formal requests for information forwarded to the affected area when the Red Cross Chapters affected are ready to receive them.
(Most of the Information Inquiries were answered by the inquirer once phone lines were cleared.
Those who were not able to succeed were then processed as DWI's.)
This intake of inquiries as well as offers of financial and in-kind donations generated over 20,000 phone calls to our office in a 48 hour5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> period.
Despite involving over 375 volunteers and operating 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> a day for the previous five days, we were able to accomplish the FEMA objectives stated above as well as the internal objectives and other tasks for the drill.
SECTION III As we develop our SONGS Annex to our Disaster Plan, specific check lists for activation need to be developed. There was some delay in notification of key Government Liaison personnel while other steps were being executed.
Table top drills will improve the performance of Function Officers so that they can be exposed to the decision making process and policy ramifications without the pressure of a real time drill.
We need to continue to work with Government Liaisons and with IPC members to make it clear when protective actions are being recommended versus being implemented.
Overall, we were pleased with our performance, particularly given our involvement with the earthquake relief operations.

CrrY OF SAN CLEMENTE FIRE DEPARTMFNT THOMAs C. DAILEY, DIRECIOR OF FIRE PROTECTION October 31, 1989 Re: Self Evaluation of S.O.N.G.S. Exercise October 23, 1989 RESPONSE OVERVIEW The City of San Clemente participated in the S.O.N.G.S. unannounced exercise on October 23, 1989, in full, to the predetermined extent of play. In excess of 34 employees from various City departments responded to activate the Emergency Operations Center, the Support Operations Center at the City Yard a liaison to the EOF and ENC.
Both direction and control and decision making functions were performed.
Division support personnel that are normally utilized to mitigate any disasters responded to the City Corporation Yard and operated the Support Emergency Operations Center.
Self reading dosimeters and TLD's were issued to all participants.
The Fire Department responded to the Emergency Operations Center and activated one radiological monitoring team. They were deployed to various scenario qued locations and provided field data to ODAC.
The notification procedures were tested as the City's Dispatch Center received the initial call from S.O.N.G.S. and called out participants using the City's new alpha mate paging network. San Clemente's liaison representatives reported to the E.O.F. and the Emergency News. Center and were in constant contact with the City's E.O.C.
During the course of the graded exercise, one of the scenarios indicated that one of the major evacuation routes along Pacific Coast Hfighway experienced a landslide. City crews fad equipment were deployed and outside resources were called in to assist'in a simulated One of the maintenance managers indicated that they could clear the roadway within a couple of hours given City equipment and contract equipment. Unfortunately, the scenario would not allow them to clear the roadway in that period of time, and, therefore, we were Fre Dcpartment 100 Avenda Presidio San Oemente, Camliona 92672 (714) 3614244
and the support E.O.C. (they were on order but had not yet arrived) and that we worked around some of the problems that surfaced during the exercise.
The scenario at one point, required ODAC to recommend to the Offsites to evacuate the communities.
The San Clemente Decision Makers spent much time discussing the problems that we faced due the fact that one third of our evacuation route was blocked from a land slide. We were told by the controllers that we could not take credit for clearing it prior to evacuation. At one point that evacuation would take approximately 5 to 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> which 'could have placed many -residents in jeopardy. The Decision Makers decided that due to time constraints, sheltering would be more appropriate than to evacuate the citizens. As play continued we were provided accurate and timely information from ODAC that allowed us to feel comfortable recommending of the evacuation of the community as other jurisdictions in our area were planning to evacuate.
Much discussion ensued by the decision makers in the San Clemente E.O.C. as well as the decision makers at other offsite jurisdictions. We feel that it was an outstanding exercise from standpoint that we were challenged to make decisions based on potential real life possibilities.
I think the quality of the decision making has moved ahead tremendously in the past few years. We now have agreed to having a fadlitor lead the discussion. We are now basing decisions on plant status versus potential. I feel that the decision makers in the City of San Clemente have the ability to adequately protect the lives of the citizens of San Clemente.
I am enclosing copies of most of recorded documents used during the exercise. The computer log is a new concept and a quick program was written to held track decisions.
We will refine this process for future drills and exercises.
We are in the process of rewriting most of our SOP's. The Public Services Department utilized their new SOP's and found them to be outstanding. I have included a copy of their check sheets.

State parks fully participated in this unannounced exercise.
I, as the State Parks decision maker, participated in this exercise as the I.P.C.
Controller and had knowledge of the exercise scenario. A State park supervisor, who resides within San Clemente State Beach, was delegated the decision maker function-in my absence. His performance met the standards set by this juris diction in past exercises.
I. The extent of play is described in the attached summary of the emergency plan. The procedures noted in the "Dispatchers Checklist" were followed. Items simulated are noted on the "Extent of Play".
100% of the staff necessary to perform the procedures in the emergency plan participated.
II.
Scope of Play was to exercise the following F.E.M.A objectives:
1,2,3,4,5,6,11,12,13,14,15,18,20 and 36.
No additional internal objectives were exercised and no actual emergency events occurred during the exercise.
III.
The exercise scenario provided for all the F.E.M.A. objectives identified above to be exercised. Communications with our EOF liaison, PIO located in the ENC and other participating local jurisdictions was very good.
The additional internal communication required by the exercise did not adversely affect our dispatch center. All necessary responses and actions were carried out in a timely manner. Staffing level proved sufficient to meet the exercise criteria and still maintain minimum routine park operations. We did find a glich in our performance to issue K.I. Our supply of KI was found to be locked up in an evidence locker and the employee with the key was off duty and did not participate in the exercise.
If this had been an actual emergency we would have breached the security of the locker for access to the K.I. We will relocate the K.I. to the locker containing the nuclear emergency response equipment.

- _San.Juan Capistrano, CA 92675 Self Evaluation of SONGS Exercise, Oot ber 23,_969 The City of San Juan Capistrano experienced a 100%
participation of our City emergency staff in this exercise. All positions identified in the plan were assigned and staffed. All other agencies sent participants to the City's EOC.
Total EOC staffing and play was able to take place.
The City was able to perform all normal procedures and emergency operations in accordance with our plans -and in a positive manner.
Additionally, we were able to have all maintenance personnel issued dosemetry, equipment and dispatched to traffic control locations in a timely manner.
Status board and maps were mounted and displayed in the EOC and used effectively as new materials.
The City was also able to train new representatives to the EOC..and to test our security procedures for the EOC effectively.
The City of San Juan Capistrano's scope of play for this exercise was to fully activate and demonstrate EOC operations and emergency personnel functions.
This included activation of all City communication equipment both internally and with other off site agencies.
Additionally, the City was to act as the facilitator of the discussions of the off-sites to determine the appropriate protective actions to be made and the decide upon the public notification (EBS) and siren (alert) implementation needed.
The following is and overview of what FEMA objectives were accomplished and any additional City objectives that were tested:
- 1. Obj-1 ECL's were used and understood and displayed on status board throughout exercise Obj-2 Emergency personnel were fully activated and mobilized (field personnel) for this exercise Obj-3 Direction and control of emergency activities was performed Obj-4 Communications with all off-site agencies and interCity divisions as well as field personnel was established Obj-5 Facilities, equipment and displays were used both in the EOC and issued to field personnel. Status board and maps were mounted in the EOC and kept current Obj-6 Emergency worker exposure was controled through the issuance 32400 PASEO ADELANTO, SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, CALIFORNIA 92675 * (714) 493-1171

- ~
Obj-7-lO N/A Obj-11 Protective Action recommendations were made and decisions made base upon internal plant conditions and ODAC recommendations.
Decision was based upon a discussion among the off-site agencies on time needed to evacuate and have shelters on line and wind and traffic conditions and weather.
Obj-12 The City participated in determining appropriate EBS message to accommodate Protective Action decision, met the *15 minute time frame to activate the sirens.
Obj-13 Following the initial alert and notification to the public the City coordinated with the PIO at the ENC news messages to be given to the media, and had City information people briefed on public inform.
Obj-14 The City's PIO at the ENC did the briefing of the media through coordinated messages with the City as per plan Obj-15 Rumor control was established and checked through PIO contact with City information officer.
Obj-16 N/A This was discussed and a procedure set to have KI brought by the OCFD to the City when they come to the EOC or when it is determined to be appropriate so that City crews can be issued it if it is necessary.
Obj-17 N/A Obj-18 Special populations were considered (public
- schools, handicapped and institutionalized persons) and actions simulated but not demonstated.
Obj-19 City kept in contact with School District to be aware of their actions Obj-20 Traffic control points as established by the City were actually manned and monitored with personnel and equipment necessary for a control point set-up Obj-21 N/A Obj-22 Relocation centers for evacuees were discussed coordinated within the City's EOC by the Red Cross liaision Obj-22-33 N/A Obj-34 Discussion on the continuous staffing (24hrs) occurred without a shift change.
Obj-35 A discussion and simulation of.- onsite evacuation of personnel was done Obj-36 This Exercise was performed by the City as an unannounced exercise on Oct. 23, 1989 at about 9:30 am The City did some additional training with new personnel during this exercise to include them in this emergency.
A status board was displayed in the EOC and kept up-dated throughout the exercise.
Internal coordination with more play by City crews with the issuance of dosimetry and the monitoring of time response to get to each designated location was performed.
Additionally, the City provided the facilitator for coordinating the off-site discussion needed to come to a decision on protective action and public alerting and notification.
The City identified a need to have RI available for issuance
to our emergency field workers if necessary.
Working with the County Fire Department representative it was determined that this can be accommodated and it will become part of both of our plans following discussion with the County EMD.
Additionally, the City has already identified that our plans need to be updated and revised to reflect the many internal changes within the City.
We are in the process of doing this and were able to incorporate some improved personnel structuring into this exercise while still achieving a very positive result.
The participants from the other off-site agencies were new to our EOC and City emergency procedures.
This necessitated some training and assistance by City staff with these people. However, since we believe that this will most likely be the case rather than the exception the City and the participants recognize that some time to brief all EOC staff on the emergency and operations will be helpful either as they come on board or as soon as time permits.
