This Appendix is developed in cooperation and with input from the City departments that have primary response or support responsibilities, as well as input from appropriate non-City agencies with identified activities related to a dam/reservoir failure event. This Appendix is developed to describe the overall citywide response function and capabilities, and is to be used by each department identified within this Appendix to develop their own standardized operating procedures (SOPs) specifically for their department to direct tactical operations. When developing SOPs, each department is to take into consideration how all of the responsibilities identified in this document directly relate to their own department, as well as how those activities interact with, support, or require support from other departments identified within this plan. Departments must ensure that their SOPs are inclusive of planning for people with disabilities and others with access and functional needs. If, at any time, any department identifies a conflict in how their field response or support activities are performed in comparison to what is described in this Appendix or identifies a conflict between their listed activities and/or responsibilities within this Appendix and how they relate to or support another department’s listed activities, such conflict is to be immediately reported to the Emergency Management Department– Planning Division. If, at any time, a department, agency, or stakeholder to this document changes, develops, or amends any policy, procedure, or operation that will change or affect the contents of this document, that entity is to immediately notify the Emergency Management Department– Planning Division. This Appendix is to be corrected immediately upon notification or observation of any operational errors or conflicts. Such corrections are to be reflected within the Record of Changes. Every other year, a formal review of this Appendix will be conducted by departments and agencies that are identified within the Appendix, as well as any other departments or agencies that may need to be part of the review process.
