Annexes to the EOP are functional and expand upon the concept of operations contained in the basic plan. Emergency Support Functions (ESFs) provide specific responses for agencies of government and define their responsibilities. The Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) required for the implementation of the County EOP are not included because of the voluminous nature of the SOPs. SOPs are the detailed operating procedures of departments and agencies and are maintained by those departments and agencies. Incident, when used in this, the Basic Plan, Annexes, Appendices, ESF’s, SOP’s, SOG’s, Support Plans or “Stand Alone” Plans, will mean: “An occurrence or event, natural or human-caused, which requires an emergency response to protect life or property. Incidents can, for example, include major disasters, emergencies, terrorist attacks, terrorist threats, wild land and urban fires, floods, hazardous materials spills, nuclear accidents, aircraft accidents, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, tropical storms, war-related disasters, public health and medical emergencies, and other occurrences requiring an emergency response”, as stated in the National Response Framework. An annual review of the EOP will be undertaken by the EM Director and those agencies, departments, county and city governments having emergency assignments. The EM Director will ensure that a list of all plan holders is maintained at the EM Office and that updates are sent to each one of these individuals. This plan requires fair and equal treatment to all regardless of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, age or handicap. First priority will always be to save lives, second is protection of the environment and third
