  • Minnesota Emergency Alert System Statewide Plan 2018
    Minnesota Emergency Alert System Statewide Plan 2018 MINNESOTA EAS STATEWIDE PLAN Revision 10 Basic Plan 01/31/2019 I. REASON FOR PLAN The State of Minnesota is subject to major emergencies and disasters, natural, technological and criminal, which can pose a significant threat to the health and safety of the public. The ability to provide citizens with timely emergency information is a priority of emergency managers statewide. The Emergency Alert System (EAS) was developed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to provide emergency information to the public via television, radio, cable systems and wire line providers. The Integrated Public Alert and Warning System, (IPAWS) was created by FEMA to aid in the distribution of emergency messaging to the public via the internet and mobile devices. It is intended that the EAS combined with IPAWS be capable of alerting the general public reliably and effectively. This plan was written to explain who can originate EAS alerts and how and under what circumstances these alerts are distributed via the EAS and IPAWS. II. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES OF PLAN A. Purpose When emergencies and disasters occur, rapid and effective dissemination of essential information can significantly help to reduce loss of life and property. The EAS and IPAWS were designed to provide this type of information. However; these systems will only work through a coordinated effort. The purpose of this plan is to establish a standardized, integrated EAS & IPAWS communications protocol capable of facilitating the rapid dissemination of emergency information to the public. B. Objectives 1. Describe the EAS administrative structure within Minnesota. (See Section V) 2.

  • Emergency Operations Plan
    DRAFT City of Paynesville EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN Adopted by the Public Safety Committee and by the City Council on: 08/12/2009 Last review date: 08/12/2009 Previous Revision date: 01/24/2012 Revision date: 03/2020 T:\Emergency.ops\EM Operations Plan 6-2020 Revised by Tom Fread.docx CITY OF PAYNESVILLE EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN FOREWORD The basic purpose of this plan is to provide a guide for emergency operations. The plan is intended to assist key city officials and emergency organizations to carry out their responsibilities for the protection of life and property under a wide range of emergency conditions. Although an organization may have the foresight to plan for anticipated situations, such planning is of little worth if the planning is not reduced to written form. Personnel with intimate knowledge of unwritten plans may be unavailable at the very time it becomes necessary to implement them. A written plan will furnish a documentary record, which can be referred to as needed. This documentary record will serve to refresh the knowledge of key individuals and can be used to inform persons who become replacements. In the event of an actual emergency, consult the EOP and Resource manual. These are on file at: Emergency Services Director – CentraCare Health – Paynesville – Brandon Thomas Fread Pietsch CentraCare Health – Paynesville Police Department – Paul Wegner Emergency Medical Services (Ambulance) – Steve Stang CentraCare Health – Paynesville Fire Department – Andy Soine Washburne Court – Brandon Pietsch, CEO Mayor – Jeff Thompson High School – Matt Bullard City Administrator – Middle School – Matt Bullard Council Members* Elementary School – Matt Bullard Public Works Director-Ron Mergen City Hall *Council Members: Len Gilmore, Alicia LaBeau, Neil Herzberg, Shawn Reinke T:\Emergency.ops\EM Operations Plan 6-2020 Revised by Tom Fread.docx City of Paynesville Basic Plan Emergency Operations Plan Draft Date: 03/2020 Approved Date: TABLE OF CONTENTS BASIC PLAN PAGE NO.
