PLANNING
UP-DATES
Planning
is a continuous process and the various emergency management
plans must be reviewed and up-dated on a regular basis.
Some plans like the CEMP are required to be reviewed annually,
at least in part. At this time, DEM is reviewing some
or all of the following plans:

WATER PLAN
Work
continues on two plans for the coordination and control of emergency
water supplies in the event of a prolonged disruption of electrical
power or other county emergency.
One
plan being developed by the DEM will provide the top-down coordination
and assignment of responsibilities for emergency water resources,
water distribution, and supply restoration. The other
plan is envisioned as a bottom-up plan or group of plans that
coordinate the pre-emergency preparations, emergency water controls,
distribution plans, and the coordinated restoration actions
of water suppliers. The bottom-up plans are being defined
by a functional panel of the County Water Resources Advisory
Committee(WRAC).
For
information on these efforts contact DEM at (360) 679-7370 or
e-mail: dem@co.island.wa.us.
Island

of the county Emergency Operations Center or EOC. An interim
