CITY OF ENCINITAS CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT Meeting Date: July 10, 2013 Moved to: August 28, 2013 TO: VIA: FROM: Mayor and City Council Gus Vina, City Manager Michael Daigle, Interim Fire Chief Robert Haley, Sheriff Captain Darrin Ward, Fire Battalion Chief SUBJECT: Oral Presentation Reviewing Protocols and Coordination of First Responders in Emergencies within the City of Encinitas and Review of the Emergency Plan for the Encinitas Union School District. BACKGROUND: At the December 19, 2012 City Council meeting, staff was directed to report to the City Council with a presentation reviewing protocols for responding to emergency incidents and include emergency procedures used in schools. Tonight s presentation will include a general overview of protocols and coordination used by Fire Department and Law Enforcement personnel in emergency responses. In addition, the Encinitas Union School District will review emergency procedures used by staff and students. ANALYSIS: The City of Encinitas has an Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) and follows an emergency management process which is consistent with the requirements of the Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) mandated in Government Code Section 8607. The City s EOP is a multi-hazard, functional plan for managing disasters and incidents. It is flexible and adaptable to varied emergencies. This plan incorporates the elements of the Incident Command System, Multiple Agency Coordination System, Mutual Aid Program, and County Operational Area concept. The benefits of these elements include the improvement of flow of information and resources; coordination between responding agencies; and the ability to mobilize, deploy, and track resources. All fire department first responders are trained in using the City s EOP and the elements within the plan. Specifically, the Incident Command System (ICS) is followed on scene in larger scale incidents. The City contracts with the San Diego County Sheriff s Department for law enforcement. Their first responders also follow ICS in large scale incidents. ICS includes Unified Command, which is used when incidents involve multiple jurisdictions or agencies. A Unified Command Last printed 8/22/2013 7:40:00 AM 08/28/2013 Item #11A Page 1
allows agencies with different functional authorities and responsibilities to work together effectively without affecting individual agency authority, responsibility, or accountability. In the authority structure of a Unified Command, the role of the incident commander can be shared by two or more individuals, each having authority in a different responding agency. The incident commanders share the responsibility of the incident and manage the response from a single Incident Command Post. Jurisdictions in the County follow a Mutual Aid Program. Emergency responders from other agencies will respond to neighboring jurisdictions to provide back-up and support in large scale incidents, both for fire and law enforcement. In a larger scale incident, the City s Emergency Operation Center (EOC) could be activated to aid in the coordination of the City s response. The City s EOC would work with the County of San Diego Office of Emergency Services for Operational Area support. This would include coordinating county wide information, mutual aid resources, and aid in establishing priorities. The Encinitas Union School District also has an Emergency Operation Plan (EOP) for each of their 10 sites. Their EOPs follow SEMS and also entail operating an EOC, when necessary. Each school site conducts various types of emergency drills, which at times involve the Fire Department and Sheriff s Office. In addition, some of the school sites are designated emergency evacuation sites for Red Cross and FEMA use. Throughout the year, Fire and Sheriffs first responders are provided training. Part of their training includes joint drills with multiple disciplines, including mass casualty and active shooter incidents. FISCAL AND STAFF IMPACTS: None. RECOMMENDATION: Informational Report.
