9 EOP / INCIDENT ANNEX L COLD WEATHER INCIDENT MANAGEMENT PLAN I. INTRODUCTION A. In addition to cold temperatures and snow and ice, winter brings dangerous driving conditions and the potential for damaging and deadly storms. B. Severe winter storms can be extremely dangerous. Transportation can come to a standstill and electricity can be out for days, often with very cold temperatures. Making preparations in advance of a storm can make getting through it easier. II. PURPOSE A. This is a comprehensive plan of action through which Chatham County has prepared for the threat and destructive impact of a cold weather event. The purpose of this Annex is to serve as a guide for local officials to ensure effective cold weather preparedness and response in conjunction with other emergency plans and procedures. B. This Annex sets forth actions to be taken to save lives and protect property, including notification of emergency response personnel, evacuation of the public, designation of shelter areas and actions to mitigate damage from a storm. III. SCOPE A. This Annex is intended for county-wide application of cold weather emergency operations affecting Chatham County. The effects of a can weather event will most likely impact the entire could. B. This Annex is an Incident Annex to the Emergency Operations Plan (EOP), and is to be used in conjunction with the EOP under the direction of the Chatham Emergency Management Agency (CEMA), with the approval of the Chairman, Chatham County Board of Commissioners and Mayors as appropriate. IV. AUTHORITIES A. Federal: 1. Federal Civil Defense Act of 1950, amended (Public Law ). 2. The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act of 1988, PL as amended by Public Law FEBRUARY 2015

10 EOP / INCIDENT ANNEX L COLD WEATHER INCIDENT MANAGEMENT PLAN B. State: 3. Executive Order 12418, July 1979 (assigning Public Law responsibility to FEMA.) 4. National Response Framework, January Georgia Constitution 2. Georgia Emergency Management Act of 1981, as amended. 3. Georgia Emergency Operations Plan. 4. Governor s Executive Order, July C. County: 1. Chatham County Emergency Operations Plan (EOP), Chatham County Code, 2012, Chapter 4, Article III, Emergency Management. V. ASSUMPTIONS A. This Annex is designed to accommodate cold weather conditions assumed to be possible for Chatham County. Operational actions and decisions during a cold weather event will be based to a large degree on the forecast intensity of the event and the likelihood of weather conditions. B. This Annex assumes three governmental levels of emergency preparedness and response: local, State and Federal. Preparedness, warning, protection and relief are general responsibilities of levels of government. However, emergency operations are initiated at the local level utilizing available resources to assure effective response. State assistance is supplementary to local activation of resources and is made available in response to local requests for assistance. C. This Annex is based on several specific assumptions: 1. Executive decision-makers will be acquainted with the Annex and its decision-making considerations and will act decisively when circumstances warrant. 2. Parties with roles and responsibilities for cold weather preparedness, response and recovery will maintain a state of readiness throughout the cold season, will actively participate in 2 FEBRUARY 2015

11 EOP / INCIDENT ANNEX L COLD WEATHER INCIDENT MANAGEMENT PLAN emergency operations when called to do so and will work collectively in a spirit of teamwork as circumstances require. 3. Local governments and emergency response agencies may not be able to provide for the immediate needs of the community especially when time is critical. Therefore, prioritization of response efforts may become necessary. 4. Citizens, businesses and others at risk will generally take personal responsibility to follow instructions from local officials and take protective actions. However, this does not assume 100% participation and compliance will actually occur. 5. State and Federal assistance will neither be expected nor requested until local resources and capabilities are known or prove to be insufficient to satisfy emergency needs. However, such assistance will be made readily available when requested. 6. Sufficient lead-time will exist to implement this Annex and mobilize available resources. This assumes a Watches and Warnings will be issued appropriately. VI. IMPLEMENTATION A. This Annex will be implemented upon the recommendation of the Director or Deputy Director of CEMA. B. Implementation of this Annex is intended only within the jurisdictional boundaries of Chatham County. The actions guided by this Annex provide support only, and do not directly control response activities outside the boundaries of the County. Additionally, this Annex support actions contained in the County s EOP. VII. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS A. General: 1. Winter Storm Watch indicates that severe winter weather may affect your area within hours. 2. Winter Storm Warning indicates severe winter weather is in the area or expected immediately and can be life threatening. 3. Ice Storm Warning is issued for ice accumulations of a quarter-inch or more. 3 FEBRUARY 2015

12 EOP / INCIDENT ANNEX L COLD WEATHER INCIDENT MANAGEMENT PLAN 4. Blizzard Warning is issued when sustained winds or frequent gusts to 35 miles per hour or greater and considerable amounts of falling or blowing snow (reducing visibility to less than a quarter mile) are expected to prevail for a period of three hours or longer. 5. Frost/Freeze Warning is issued when below freezing temperatures are expected. 6. Freezing Rain is rain that freezes when it hits the ground, creating a coating of ice on roads, walkways, trees, and power lines. 7. Sleet is rain that turns to ice pellets before reaching the ground. B. Management Concept 1. Whenever Emergency Operations are in effect they will be assigned the highest priority and take precedence over other forms of routine government business. They shall be maintained at the appropriate levels until the threat has passed. In the event the County is struck by a storm, emergency operations will be continued until the threat has been eliminated, essential government, transportation and utility services have been restored and the basic survival needs of the citizens have been met. 2. Early alerting of local officials and agencies with emergency operations responsibilities is essential. Information regarding warning or response actions will be coordinated with local governments in conjunction with the Georgia Emergency Management Agency (GEMA). 3. Upon the recommendation of CEMA, emergency operations shall commence at the discretion of the Chairman, Chatham County Board of Commissioners, or if unavailable, the County Manager. The Mayors of the County s Municipalities may also request emergency operations commence prior to such recommendation. In unusual circumstances the Governor, through GEMA, may also recommend or order such action. C. Emergency Operations Center (EOC): Direction and Control functions will be conducted in the EOC under the general direction of the CEMA Director and will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of the CEMA EOC Staff Manual (see EOP, Support Annex F). D. School Closure Process 1. The decision to open or close Chatham County Public Schools is the responsibility of the Board of Education. CEMA participates in 4 FEBRUARY 2015

13 EOP / INCIDENT ANNEX L COLD WEATHER INCIDENT MANAGEMENT PLAN the process by providing information from a number of sources, to include the National Weather Service and a variety of local, State and Federal emergency management organizations. The Board decision is based on the projected availability of utilities and services during the school-day and the safety of its students waiting on transportation to and from school. 2. Private schools operate independently but generally follow the lead of the Board of Education. CEMA does not make the decision to open or close schools. E. Road/Bridge Closures: Road Closures are determined by law enforcement officers. Once officers have deemed a road impassable, the information will be relayed to the Georgia Department of Transportation. F. Warming Station Management: 1. Due to the unsafe conditions on the road, the American Red Cross will not open shelters during a cold weather event. 2. In the event of a major power outage with unhealthy temperatures, a Warming Station could be activated. CEMA will be responsible for overseeing the management the Warming Station. (See Appendix B) G. Public Information: CEMA Public Information Officer will work with Savannah Fire Department and Southside Fire Department to develop pre-scripted press releases and educational releases for the general public regarding the use of space heaters and safely warming homes. H. Logistics and Resources: 1. CEMA in coordination with local emergency management partners will identify resources needed to respond to, recover from, and mitigate incidents both man-made and natural in occurrence. List of potential resources for available use or need will be compiled based on past incidents, past full scale exercises, and current best practices risk analysis. 2. Known resource short comings based on hazard impact, response, and recovery needs are identified and a source for such items will be identified. Additional, the request for such resources will follow standard operational guidelines for resource request (i.e. ICS form 213 RR). It will then fall upon the logistics section for the incident to identify a resource for procurement. 5 FEBRUARY 2015

14 EOP / INCIDENT ANNEX L COLD WEATHER INCIDENT MANAGEMENT PLAN 3. Private agencies play a critical role in providing resource need in support of an emergency incident. These relationships between the public and private sector are established before an incident occurs or a resource is needed. As a resource need is identified during the mitigation phase of planning and such resources are not obtainable through public means, private sources are then identified are able to provide such resources. Memoranda of Understanding and contracts identifying the availability and cost of resources during critical times are than procured 4. Logistical support of engaged assets is the responsibility of the jurisdiction to which the asset belongs. Records and logs will be maintained in order to identify agencies utilizing these facilities. 5. Logs and records are used in order to track financial responsibilities. If these resources are secured through the EOC Logistics Section, this Section will be accountable for record generation and retention. If these resources are secured through other coordination efforts, the entity responsible for receiving the resource will have accountability for record generator and retention. VIII. RESPONSIBILITIES A. CEMA 1. CEMA Director: The CEMA Director provides for the overall command, direction and control regarding the response to and management of an event.
