Draft Recovery Plan SHIRE OF MUNDARING LOCAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ARRANGEMENTS RECOVERY PLAN INTRODUCTION Recovery should be managed and planned for in a structured manner. The broad needs created by the impact of an emergency or disaster on the Shire of Mundaring’s Community will only be met through a range of services, provided by a range of both government and non-government organisations. At the local level, the focus of recovery planning and management is on community input. Within emergency planning responsibilities, the Shire of Mundaring local arrangements will incorporate recovery planning and, from an operational point of view, a range of services, including both infrastructure and human services. These arrangements will assist in providing coordination for the activities of local agencies. The primary focus of the Shire of Mundaring Emergency Management Arrangements is to mitigate the effects of disasters. Within this context, recovery is defined as the coordinated process of supporting disaster affected communities in the reconstruction of physical infrastructure and restoration of emotional, social, economic and physical well-being. Recovery is best achieved when the affected community is able to exercise a high level of self-determination. 1 1.0 DISTRIBUTION LIST 3 2.0 AMENDMENT RECORD 4 3.0 GLOSSARY OF TERMS AND ACRONYMS 5 ACRONYMS 7 4.0 MANAGEMENT 8 4.1 Authority 8 4.2 Context 8 4.1 Aim 8 4.2 Objectives 8 4.3 Scope 9 4.4 Related Agreements, Plans and Arrangements 9 4.4.1 Agreements 9 4.4.2 Plans and Arrangements 10 4.5 Special Considerations 10 4.6 Resources 11 4.7 Financial Arrangements 11 4.8 Local Recovery Coordinator (LRC) 12 4.8.1 Appointment 12 4.8.2 Responsibilities 12 4.9 Local Recovery Coordinating Committee (LRCC) 13 4.9.1 Organisation 13 4.9.2 Membership 13 4.9.3 Roles and Responsibilities 14 4.10 Organisational Responsibilities 15 4.11 Contacts Register 15 5.0 PLAN ACTIVATION 15 5.1 Transition from Response 15 5.2 Activation 16 5.3 Impact Assessment and Recovery Action Planning 16 5.4 Welfare Support 17 5.5 Communication 17 5.5.1 Policy 18 5.5.2 Principals 18 5.5.3 Stakeholders 18 5.5.4 Materials 19 6.0 EXERCISING AND TESTING THE PLAN 22 6.1 Exercise Management 23 6.2 Exercise Participants 23 7.0 APPENDICES 24 2 1.0 DISTRIBUTION LIST This section itemises restricted copies disseminated to various appointees or organisations.
