ORGANI ZATI ON A. Manpower 1. General Emergency manpower must be obtained from government and private agencies and from skilled individuals and professional groups. Additional manpower is obtained by using volunteers and/or persons impressed into service. 2. Disaster Service Workers ae Ail public employees and registered volunteers of a jurisdiction having an accredited Disaster Council are disaster service workers (Government Code of the State of California, Title I, Division 4, Chapter 8). be "Disaster service worker" includes volunteer civil defense workers and public employees. It also includes any unregistered person impressed into service during a STATE OF EMERGENCY or a STATE OF WAR EMERGENCY by a person having authority to command the aid of citizens in the execution of his duties. B. Organizational Structure le The structure of the emergency organization (chart, page ...!5 ) is based on the following principles" a. Compatibility with that of day-to-day governmental, and private organizations; b. Clear lines of authority and channels of communi cations; c. Simplified functional structure; de Incorporation into the emergency organization of all available manpower resources having disaster capabilities; and eo Formation of special-purpose units having no pre-emergency counterparts, to perform those activities peculiar to major emergencies. Ukiah 8/73 -6- 2. A major emergency changes working relationships between government and industry, and between the regular agencies of government. Primary changes include the: a. Consolidation of several agencies under a single chief, even though such agencies normally work independently of each other. b. Formation of special-purpose units (Situation Intelligence, Emergency Information, Operations Control, Radio-logi¢~l Defense, and Welfare/ Shelter Service) to perform functions not normally required prior to an emergency. Individuals designated to serve in such units are detached from their regular private or government agency when such units are mobilized. 3. The nominal staffing pattern and manpower require- ments for units of the emergency organization are given in the annexes to this plan. 4. Changes in the emergency organization structure may be required to satisfy specific situation requirements. 5. Inter-jurisdictional relationships during a STATE OF WAR EMERGENCY are shown by the chart on page 16 . C. The Emergency Organization The city emergency organization consists of the following: 1. The City Council - the city governing body. 2. The Disaster Council - an advisory body to the City Council. 3.

Ukiah 8/73 -27.- CITY EMERGENCY PLAN ATTACHMENT C -- WARNING SYSTEMS WARNING SYSTEM 1. General The warning system is the means for relaying notice of impending or actual attack from the Federal Government to the public. Regardless of the effective- ness of the warning system, it can do no more than inform. It is the response to warning by the total emergency organization and the public which is important. Appropriate responses and effective use of the warning information may be limited by the amount of time available. Refer to the Warning Section, Direction and Control Annex, of this emergency plan and to appropriate SOPs, with respect to procedures for disseminating warning. Public responses to various Warning Conditions are given in the General Plan chapter. 2. Actions Warning actions are characterized by high priority for a short period of time, the use of mass media systems for passing warning to the public, a small number of workers to man the system, a need for fast activation of the system on short notice, and readiness to repeat all actions in the event of successive alerts or attacks. The National Warning System (NAWAS) feeds warning infor- mation to the State Warning Point. (The statewide Warning Points also hear the NAWAS information but do not take action from it.) After the State Warning Point transmits the warning condition, the Warning Points activate the Bell and Lights warning system to inform local governments, schools, and industry. Local authorities then inform the public by means of outdoor warning devices, mobile loudspeakers, and other devices. Upon activation by the President, the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) will provide warning information to the public. (See Attachment E - EBS, Mendocino County Emergency Plan.) 3. Facilities Warning information is received at the County of Mendocino Sheriff's Department, via the Bell and Lights system and Ukiah 8/73 -28- · relayed to the Ukiah Police Department. Alternate means of receipt are via the California Law Enforce- ment Telecommunications system (CLETS) and Public Safety radio systems. The general public receives warning by means of sirens and horns which are located to provide coverage for an estimated 80 percent of the peak nighttime population of this city. To the extent possible, the remaining population will be notified by other available means. In addition, the Emergency Broadcast System is expected to provide coverage for a large part of the population. Notice of warning is also broadcast from the various county and city communication centers to special facilities (schools, hospitals, fire stations, utility stations, etc.). Key workers of emergency organizations are alerted by means of monitor receivers or by telephone. Types of Warnin~ a. Attack Warning: A civil defense warning that an actual attack against this country has been detected. b. Fallout Warning: A warning of radiation hazards resulting from nuclear detonation. c. Natural Disaster Warning: (NADWARN) A warning concerning tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, fires, and other dangers such as tsunamis (seismic sea waves). 5. Warning .Signals A. Two standard warning signals have been established: (1) The Attack Warning Signal: 3- to 5-minute wavering tone on sirens, or short blast on horns or whistles, repeated as often as deemed necessary (see 6 below). (2) The Attention or Alert signal 3- to 5-minute steady tone on sirens, horns or whistles, repeated as often as deemed necessary. This signal may be used at the option and on the authority of local qovern- ments to provide warnings of an impending peacetime emergency (see 7 below). Ukiah 8/73 6. Warning Signals - war Emergency Outdoor warning devices, the EBS, and other communi- cations media will announce a Warning Condition by use of standard signals or words. WARNING SIGNALS STRATEGIC Communication WARNING TACTICAL ATTACK ALL Media ( READINE S S WARNING (NO CLEAR CONDITIONS ) WARNING Bell & Lights NONE RED RED NONE EBS, Alert Moni- tor System, and other voice or printed message systems. Message includes information, advice, and action instructions. THIS IS THIS IS Voice AN AN or ATTACK ATTACK printed WARNING WARNING announce- ment. Outdoor warning devices (siren, whistle, or horn) NONE ATTACK ATTACK NONE WARNING WARNING signal signal 7. Warning Signal - Peacetime Emergencies Warning of an extraordinary peacetime emergency may be received by local government over the California Law Enforcement Telecommunications System (CLETS), public safety radio systems, and/or NAWAS. a. The ATTENTION or ALERT signal may be sounded on public warning device on order ~'of the Mayor or the Director of Civil Defense/Emergency Services. b. The ATTENTION or ALERT signal will not be sounded until local radio and television stations are prepared to broadcast emergency public information from government authorities. c. The ATTENTION or ALERT signal shall mean .... "An emergency situation exists or is imminent. Listen to your local or area radio or television station for essential emergency information." Ukiah 8/73 -30- CITY EMERGENCY PLAN ATTACHMENT D -- EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS 1. General The communications systems installed at or controlled from the EOC will support the field activities of elements of the emergency organization. Other communi- cations systems provide links to nearby jurisdictions (cities and counties), or to higher levels of the statewide emergency organization. The communications systems at the EOC include radio systems licensed to this jurisdiction. Such radio systems are augmented in an emergency by radio systems licensed to other agencies of government, to private industry, and to individuals. During a STATE OF WAR EMERGENCY, privately owned radio systems, equipment, and facilities, subject to approval by the licensee, will generally be used to support the field activities of emergency services not already linked directly to the EOC. Refer to the Communications Section, Direction and Control Annex of this emergency plan for specific information on action, organization, and available systems. All radio equipment will be operated in compliance with FCC Rules and Regulations. 2. Operational Considerations a. The Communications Section is one of several staff sections which are organized and assigned at the EOC to provide communications for the direction and control of emergency operations. Messages directed outside of the EOC are handled by communications operators in this staff section. The Message Center processes and distributes messages within the EOC. The EOC communications and message staff is supervised by the Communications Officer, who also has technical supervision of emergency service technicians who service or operate communi- cation equipment in the field. Operators to man the EOC communications equipment will be provided by those agencies regularly using these systems. The Communications Officer will provide for operators of other communications equipment which augments regular capabilities, and will also provide for personnel to service and maintain communication equipment and facilities. Ukiah 8/73 -31- b. Allocation of Radio Systems Radio systems subject to city control will be used for message transactions according to the following table, subject to such revisions as may be issued by the Communications Officer. Operators of radio equipment will provide service in accordance with this table or revisions as issued. Radio System Police Fire Local Government RACES (1) Citizens Band (2) Industrial Law Enforcement and Traffic* Fire* Engineer* Procurement Manpower Transportation Medical Health Shelter/Welfare Engineer Transportation *Indicates an emergency service which will provide its own radio operators. NOTE: (1) While RACES could be assigned to Health and Medical it should not be exclusively assigned. RACES should be available to back up any of the several services in case regular communications paths become inoperative. (2) Section 95.121 of FCC Rules and Regulations permits a licensee of a Citizens Band radio station to participate in civil defense activities providing (a) the operation shall be on a voluntary basis, and (b) such communications are conducted under the direction of civil defense authorities. c. Emergency Public Information Media Emergency information, advice, and action instructions are announced to the public by various media. The Bmergency Broadcast System (EBS) and outdoor warning devices (sirens and horns) are the primary media. Other media are the mobile loudspeakers, bulletins, handbills, and the press. The Emergency Information Officer will release all emergency public information originated by this city. Ukiah 8/73 d. Message Priorities Message classifications and priorities are as follows: Emergency Messages ........... Highest priority Operational Priority ......... Second priority Priority Messages ............ Third priority Routine Messages ............. Lowest priority Each message will be classified by the originator and a priority assigned in accordance with the above table and/or with rules issued by the Director or the Communications Officer. e . Procurement Emergency services will estimate communication requirements and deficiencies and advise the Communi- cations Officer. Procurement of communication resources and services will be managed by the Procure- ment Section in consultation with and on advice from the Communications Section. 3. Facilities Specific information showing inventories and deficiencies is contained in the Communications Planning Report prepared and submitted by the jurisdiction. General allocations follow: a. Communications Systems Inventory (EOC) The communication systems linked to the Emergency Operating Center (EOC) include the following: (1) Police radio (base station and mobiles)*. (2) City fire radio (base station and mobiles)* (3) Local Government radio (base stations and mobiles ) *. (4) RACES radio (base stations and mobiles with multiple modes of operations including radio teletypewriter) **.
