The lesson explains EOC functions, the main staff organization models used to bring together representatives from multiple agencies, and how modular management characteristics support coordination. It also covers EOC activation and deactivation, common triggers, and typical activation levels that scale response, deliver appropriate resources, and match coordination needs to incident size and complexity.","Lesson 5: Emergency Operations Centers (EOC)\nThis lesson presents an overview of Emergency Operations Centers.\nObjective:\nAt the end of this lesson, you will be able to describe basic:\nEmergency Operations Center (EOC) Functions\nEOC Staff Organization Models\nEOC Activation Levels\n(National Incident Management System, Third Edition, October 2017)\n1\nIntroduction\nEmergency Operations Centers are one of four NIMS Command and Coordination structures.\nICS is used to manage on-scene, tactical-level response; EOCs are off site locations where staff from multiple agencies come together to:\nAddress imminent threats and hazards\nProvide coordinated support to incident command, on-scene personnel and/or other EOCs\n2\nConfiguration of Emergency Operations Centers (EOCs)\nEOC teams vary widely. Organization of the EOC staff can vary based on:\nJurisdictional/organizational authorities\nStaffing\nPartner and stakeholder agencies represented\nEOC facilities\nEOC communications capabilities\nPolitical considerations\nThe mission\nNIMS identifies three common ways of organizing EOC Teams:\nICS or ICS-like structure\nIncident Support Model structure\nDepartmental structure\nLike ICS, EOCs utilize the NIMS management characteristic modular organization.\n3\nICS or ICS-like EOC Structure\nMany jurisdictions/organizations configure their EOCs using the standard ICS organizational structure, either exactly as it is performed in the field or with slight modifications. The structure is familiar and it aligns with the on-scene incident organization.\n4\nIncident Support Model (ISM) EOC Structure\nJurisdictions/organizations that focus their EOC team's efforts on information, planning, and resource support may choose to separate the situational awareness function from planning and combine operations and logistics functions into an incident support structure.\n5\nDepartmental EOC Structure\nJurisdictions/organizations may opt instead to use their day-to-day departmental/agency structure and relationships in their EOC.  By operating in the context of their normal relationships, department/agency representatives can function in the EOC with minimal preparation or startup time.\n6\nDiscussion Question\nWhat type of EOC configuration is used in your organization?\n7\nEOC Activation and Deactivation\nEmergency Operations Centers are activated for a variety of incidents, threats and events.\nSome circumstances that might trigger center activation include:\nMultiple jurisdictions or agencies involved in an incident.\nThe Incident Commander or Unified Command indicates an incident could expand rapidly, involve cascading effects or require additional resources.\nA similar incident in the past led to EOC activation.\nThe EOC Director or an appointed or elected official directs EOC activation.\nAn incident is imminent such as predicted hurricane, flooding, hazardous weather, or elevated threat levels.\nThreshold events described in an emergency operations plan occur.\nSignificant impacts to the population are anticipated.\n8\nEOC Activation Levels\nEmergency Operations Centers frequently have multiple activation levels to allow for:\nResponse scaled to the incident\nDelivery of the exact resources needed\nA level of coordination appropriate to the incident\nThe level of activity within a center often increases as the size, scope, and complexity of the incident grow. If the incident requires additional support and coordination, the EOC director may activate additional staff to involve more disciplines, mobilize additional resources, inform the public, address media inquiries, involve senior elected and appointed officials, and request outside assistance.\n9\nDiscussion Question\nWhat is an example of an incident that would cause an Enhanced Stead-State/Partial Activation?\nWhat is an example of an incident that would cause a Full Activation?\n10\nLesson 5: Emergency Operations Centers Summary\nThe lesson presented an overview of NIMS Emergency Operations Centers.\nThe lesson specifically discussed Emergency Operations","cbCaia47JSyQYL14","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaia47JSyQYL14","pptx",505393,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Configuration of Emergency Operations Centers (EOCs)\n## ICS or ICS-like EOC Structure\n## Incident Support Model (ISM) EOC Structure\n## Departmental EOC Structure\n# EOC Activation and Deactivation\n## EOC Activation Levels\n# Lesson 5 Summary","[{\"question\":\"What are the key functions of an Emergency Operations Center (EOC)?\",\"answer\":\"EOCs address imminent threats and hazards and provide coordinated support to incident command, on-scene personnel, and/or other EOCs.\"},{\"question\":\"What staff organization models does NIMS identify for EOC teams?\",\"answer\":\"NIMS identifies three common ways: ICS or ICS-like structure, Incident Support Model structure, and Departmental structure.\"},{\"question\":\"How do EOC activation levels work during an incident?\",\"answer\":\"Activation levels allow response and coordination to scale with incident size, scope, and complexity, enabling the delivery of the exact resources needed and increasing center activity as demands grow.\"}]","Lesson 5 -
