EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The NC State University Emergency Operations Plan ( The Plan ) provides the organized management system for NC State to follow during emergencies. It is designed as a flexible system in which part or the entire Plan may be activated, as appropriate to the situation. The Plan provides an organizational structure and procedures for the management of information, activities, and operations during an emergency. As required by GS 132-1.6 and UNC General Administration, NC State University maintains programs in prevention of, preparation for, response to and recovery from natural or man-made disasters. The Plan follows the format outlined by the Wake County Emergency Management Plan. Recognizing potential hazards and managing their associated risks are major components of emergency planning. The University has established policies, procedures, and guidelines to respond to emergencies to minimize their impact and duration. An emergency is defined as a sudden or unexpected occurrence or combination of occurrences that may cause injury, loss of life, destruction of property, or the interference, loss, or disruption of normal business operations that poses a threat to the campus community. The Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) establishes a framework of policy and guidance for University preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation. It also supports Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plans, establishing a framework to coordinate specific plans and procedures maintained by individual departments or divisions to enable a campus-wide approach to incident mitigation and resolution. The EOP consists of a Basic Plan supplemented by functional and situational Appendixes. The basic Plan recognizes the content and role of existing plans, identifies potential hazards to the University, and establishes the general organization and function of the Emergency Operations Center.
