Question 1: The same capabilities are needed - ESFs or other structure
Select one Emergency Support Function (ESF) from the National Response Framework (NRF). Explain the purpose of the ESF and name at least one agency, department, or organization that would be involved in that ESF (or the comparable ESF or functional area if ESFs are numbered differently or ESFs are not used) at the local, state, and federal level of government (in the U.S.) (name one at each level of government)
Question 2: Purpose and content of emergency operations/response plans
Prepare a short paper (at least 250 words) that explains the content of an all-hazard emergency operations plan (EOP) or comprehensive emergency management plan (CEMP) and the purpose of plan annexes and/or appendices. Include references using APA Style.
Question 3: Individual, household, and business planning
How does local risk assessment, risk communication, and planning support preparedness of residents, households, and businesses and industry in a local area (or in a private sector organization)?
Question 4: Backwards-planning for notice events
Review the hurricane response timeline (an old appendix to the Chatham County (GA) Emergency Operations Plan Hurricane Annex) mentioned in the response planning presentation. Describe the content and use of the timeline. For what type of incident would this be used, and could something like this be used for other hazards? If so, what types of hazards?
Question 5: Special Event Security Planning
After reviewing the special event security planning guide, thinking about the relationship of an EOP to planning specifically for a large public gathering. Describe and explain which ESFs might be most useful in security planning for a large public event and why.
