PROGRAM INFORMATION & DATA:
When a major emergency occurs, either natural or manmade, the Office of
Emergency Management interacts with other emergency agencies from both the
public and private sectors to coordinate response and relief activities. This
includes contact with agencies and departments from the local, State, and
Federal governments. This office is also responsible for maintaining and
updating the local emergency operations plan, which serves as an operational
guideline to agencies during significant emergencies. Additionally, the
terrorists attacks on America on September 11, 2001, plus the subsequent anthrax
incident, has resulted in this office participating in training and preparing
for acts of terrorism that could include the employment of weapons of mass
destruction.
DEPARTMENT GOALS:
Upon request from the Incedent Commander, respond to the scene of emergencies to
assist in operations.
Conduct two emergency management workshops in Enfield with local agencies.
Participate, when possible, in simulated exercises with local emergency response
agencies.
Interact closely with emergency response and support agencies to improve local
capability to swiftly and effectively mitigate emergencies. Such steps may
include, but are not limited to, planning, purchasing selected equipment as
resources allow and implementing State and Federal guidelines under Homeland
Security.
