INTRODUCTION Emergencies involving hazardous materials (HazMat) require detailed pre-planning at the local- level. The Allen County Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) is the body responsible for this planning. It is essential that response agencies understand the use of an integrated Incident Command System (ICS) under the National Incident Management System (NIMS). The inclusion of support agencies will increase the need for coordination during the emergency. If the local capabilities are overwhelmed, support may come from other jurisdictions such as mutual aid partners as well as State or Federal agencies. The use of these resources may be coordinated by the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) depending on the type of incident/accident and the level of response. A. Scope of Hazardous Materials Response Allen County is continually at risk from a HazMat incident. The number of fixed sites using hazardous materials locally is moderate to heavy, and the county is vulnerable to accidents involving these materials. Release of hazardous materials can come from fixed sites but is more likely to occur from transportation incidents on highways and/or railroads in the county. This Plan was developed to help Allen County officials and first responders prepare and respond to HazMat incidents. These plans and procedures recognize Allen County emergency response agencies normally have the resources to respond to a serious HazMat incident including a Level III incident. A Level III incident is defined as full emergency situation and involves severe potential exposure for the responders and the general public. B. Purpose Primary responsibility for the safety and welfare of the residents of Allen County rests with the respective local governments as well as city and county officials. This Plan is based on a response at the local level of government; however, the Indiana Department of Homeland Security (IDHS) may be called on to assist by providing State resources. The IDHS will coordinate State agencies, and if deemed necessary, request a Presidential Declaration through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). This type of declaration allows supplemental Federal financial and technical assistance. The primary purpose of the Plan is to provide effective, coordinated emergency

  • Northwest Allen County Schools Guidelines for School Delays and Closings Due to Inclement Weather
    Northwest Allen County Schools Guidelines for School Delays and Closings Due to Inclement Weather Beliefs Weather conditions are both variable and potentially extreme in Northeast Indiana; the safety of children will guide decisions regarding delaying or closing. Concrete rules do not exist in making decisions regarding variable and extreme weather; however, these guidelines will serve as a reference for Northwest Allen County Schools (NACS). NACS believes our community expects schools to be open and provide educational services as well as supervision and other services, such as meals, to its students. NACS believes all parents are committed to keeping children safe and these parents will dress their children appropriately for the existing weather conditions when sending their children to school. NACS recognizes that it is first and foremost a parental decision as to whether or not a child should attend school on inclement weather days. NACS respects the parent’s determination regarding her/his child’s attendance at school during inclement weather. If school is open, or delayed, because of inclement weather, the school will respect the parent’s decision to keep their child at home. Parents are expected to contact the school and inform school officials of their determination, and the student will be counted as absent, per Indiana code. Students who are absent due to inclement weather will be given the opportunity to complete their academic work. Communication On a normal school day, a delay and/or closing will be announced no later than 6:30 a.m. Following a delay, if the need to close should arise, it will be announced no later than 8:30 a.m.

NACS believes decisions regarding whether it is safe enough for teenagers to drive is a family decision between each parent and her/his teenager. • NACS recognizes that it is first and foremost a parental decision as to whether a child should attend school on inclement weather days. • NACS respects the parent’s determination regarding her/his child’s attendance at school during inclement weather.

  • RADIO's DIGITAL DILEMMA: BROADCASTING in the 21St
    RADIO’S DIGITAL DILEMMA: BROADCASTING IN THE 21st CENTURY BY JOHN NATHAN ANDERSON DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communications in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2011 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor John C. Nerone, Chair and Director of Research Associate Professor Michelle Renee Nelson Associate Professor Christian Edward Sandvig Professor Daniel Toby Schiller ii ABSTRACT The interaction of policy and technological development in the era of “convergence” is messy and fraught with contradictions. The best expression of this condition is found in the story behind the development and proliferation of digital audio broadcasting (DAB). Radio is the last of the traditional mass media to navigate the convergence phenomenon; convergence itself has an inherently disruptive effect on traditional media forms. However, in the case of radio, this disruption is mostly self-induced through the cultivation of communications policies which thwart innovation. A dramaturgical analysis of digital radio’s technological and policy development reveals that the industry’s preferred mode of navigating the convergence phenomenon is not designed to provide the medium with a realistically useful path into a 21st century convergent media environment. Instead, the diffusion of “HD Radio” is a blocking mechanism proffered to impede new competition in the terrestrial radio space. HD Radio has several critical shortfalls: it causes interference and degradation to existing analog radio signals; does not have the capability to actually advance the utility of radio beyond extant quality/performance metrics; and is a wholly proprietary technology from transmission to reception.
