EMERGENCY PLANNING COMMITTEE SUBMITS OPERATIONS PLAN - Action For Man-Made Or Natural Disaster

(07/09/2004)

Calhoun's Local Emergency Planning Committee met last night to submit a "Calhoun County Emergency Operations Plan" to the Calhoun Commission for approval. The Commission is expected to approve the plan at their next meeting. The plan defines disaster preparedness activities for the county and establishes operational responsibilities and prescribes actions to be taken during man-made or natural disasters. Members of the LEPC committee, which was chaired by Bill Ellis, will advise the county OES Director Bill Stemple to appoint a LEPC Disaster Coordinator. An OES disaster service tent will be kept at Minnie Hamilton Health Care Center for use during disaster situations. The LEPC consists of representatives of county emergency services, law enforcement, health care providers and elected officials.
