<br />Ramsey County-Wide Emergency Operations Plan <br /> <br />Revision 5.1, June. 2005 <br /> <br />to those who need access to it so that they can effectively and safely <br />conduct their missions. The information and intelligence function also has <br />the responsibility for coordinating information and operational-security <br />matters with public awareness activities that fall under the responsibility of <br />the PIO, particularly where such public awareness activities may affect <br />information or operations security. <br /> <br />Area Command <br /> <br />An Area Command is activated only if necessary, depending on the <br />complexity of the incident and incident management span-of-control <br />considerations. The County Incident Manager, an agency administrator or <br />other public official with jurisdictional responsibility for the incident usually <br />makes the decision to establish an Area Command. <br /> <br />An Area Command is established either to oversee the management of <br />multiple incidents that are each being handled by a separate ICS <br />organization or to oversee the management of a very large incident that <br />involves multiple ICS organizations, such as would likely be the case for <br />incidents that are not site specific, geographically dispersed, or evolve <br />over longer periods of time, (e.g., a bioterrorism event). In this sense, acts <br />of biological, chemical, radiological, andlor nuclear terrorism represent <br />particular challenges for the traditionallCS structure and will require <br />extraordinary coordination between Federal, State, local, tribal, private- <br />sector, and nongovernmental organizations. Area Command is also used <br />when there are a number of incidents in the same area and of the same <br />type, such as two or more hazardous material (HAZMAT) or oil spills, and <br />fires. These represent incidents that may compete for the same resources. <br />When incidents do not have similar resource demands, they are usually <br />handled separately and are coordinated through an Emergency <br />Operations Center (EOG). <br /> <br />If incidents under the authority of an Area Command are <br />multijurisdictional, a Unified Area Command is established. <br /> <br />Area Command has the responsibility to: <br /> <br />. set overall incident-related priorities. <br />. allocate critical resources according to priorities. <br />. ensure incidents are properly managed. <br />. ensure incident management objectives are met and do not conflict <br />with each other or with agency policy. <br />. identify critical resource needs and report them to EOCs andlor <br />multiagency coordination entities. <br />. ensure short-term emergency recovery is coordinated to assist in the <br />transition to full recovery operations <br /> <br />38 <br />
