Ramsey County-Wide Emergency Operations Plan Revision 5.I,June, 2005 <br /> enforcement in general on the waterways of the County. When requested <br /> by local incident commanders, or by EMHS, the Sheriff's water patrol will <br /> make contact with boaters via radio or patrol boat contact and public <br /> address announcements. <br /> PARKS/CAMPGROUNDS <br /> While persons utilizing parks and campgrounds may have their own or <br /> public transportation available, others may require emergency <br /> transportation assistance. Should expedient sheltering be required, it <br /> should be taken in the nearest available structures. Alerting and warning <br /> will be similar to that described for boaters. Those at parks and <br /> campgrounds need specific evacuation route information so as to avoid <br /> returning home through dangerous areas. <br /> Outdoor warning sirens cover all of the parks and campground areas <br /> within the county. Ramsey County Parks and Recreation staff will assist in <br /> providing additional emergency information. Each municipality plans to <br /> send emergency vehicles with public address loudspeakers as available to <br /> areas where they may be needed. <br /> MAJOR EMPLOYERS -� <br /> At the time of an emergency situation, employers of large numbers of <br /> workers must be prepared to implement in-place expedient sheltering. <br /> Decisions to shut down industrial operations must be made quickly if <br /> necessary. Evacuation of personnel will be accomplished by private <br /> vehicle, supplemented by specialty vehicles as required. <br /> In 2005, Ramsey County EMHS will be adding to the Sheriff's existing <br /> Community Watch program. This program uses automated voicemaii, <br /> email, and faxes to distribute law enforcement information. When <br /> enhanced, each community will be able to contact any major employer <br /> who registers with the system with information and updates. <br /> SPECIAL FACILITIES <br /> All special facilities must be prepared to implement the protective actions <br /> of expedient sheltering and/or evacuation. Pre-planning is needed to <br /> enhance effectiveness. <br /> 1) Schools <br /> a) General: '1 <br /> In late fall of 2004, Ramsey County will be adding to the <br /> 104 <br />
