BASIC PLAN L. <br /> City of Everett <br /> COMPREHENSIVE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN <br /> This plan supersedes all previous versions of the Comprehensive Emergency <br /> Management Plan. The Basic Plan follows the Agency/Department-Focused EOP <br /> format outlined in the FEMA Interim Comprehensive Preparedness Guide 101, dated <br /> June 2009. The plan explains how the City of Everett intends to help prevent, prepare <br /> for, respond to, restore services from, recover from and mitigate the effects of any <br /> hazard (natural and manmade) impacting the City of Everett. The City of Everett has <br /> adopted the Incident Command System to structure the emergency management <br /> components utilizing government, volunteer and private agencies in a comprehensive <br /> and coordinated manner. This plan was developed to align with the 2008 National <br /> Response Framework (NRF), the 2008 National Incident Management System (NIMS) <br /> document, the 2003 Washington State Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan, <br /> the 2008 Washington State Comprehensive Emergency Management Planning Guide <br /> and the 2008 Snohomish County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. <br /> I. Purpose, Scope, Situations, and Assumptions <br /> A. Purpose <br /> The intent of this document is to provide a framework during an <br /> emergency or major disaster to coordinate response efforts, prioritize <br /> restoration of government services and speed economic and physical <br /> recovery. Additionally, it outlines broad prevention, preparedness and <br /> mitigation approaches within specific appendices. Taken as a whole, all of <br /> these activities intend to minimize the impact to people, the environment, <br /> the economy and property throughout the City of Everett. Appendices <br /> supplement the basic plan to organize specific topics for ease of use. <br /> Annexes to this basic plan can stand alone, however, are guided by the <br /> focus of the basic plan. <br /> B. Scope <br /> The City of Everett Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (the <br /> "Plan") applies to all-hazards that may impact the city and its neighboring <br /> jurisdictions. The plan applies to all city departments as well as any other <br /> organization that may respond in support of city operations. The plan <br /> provides a framework to coordinate citywide activities associated with all- <br /> hazard (natural or human caused) emergencies and major disasters. The <br /> plan shares general emergency management planning concepts with <br /> neighboring jurisdictions and complements the Snohomish County and <br /> State plan. <br /> C.
