§ 11-181. Amendments to Bartow County Emergency Operation Plan.  


Latest version.
  • Paragraph (2) of subsection (D) Direction and Coordination, Section IV, Concept of Operations, Basic Plan is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows:

    2. The jurisdictions under this plan will respond to events utilizing the standardized unified incident command system recognized by the state to include the Incident Command System (ICS). ICS is a standardized on-scene incident management concept designed specifically to allow responders to adopt an integrated organizational structure equal to the complexity and demands of any single incident or multiple incidents without being hindered by jurisdictional boundaries. During events involving multiple jurisdictions or agencies, the principles of unified incident command have been universally incorporated into the National Incident Management System (NIMS). This unified incident command not only coordinates the efforts of many jurisdictions, but provides for and assures joint decisions on objectives, strategies, plans, priorities, and public communications.
