• Initial Planning Conference (IPC)
• Final Planning Conference (FPC)
Regional Rehearsal of Concept Drill (x4)
State Rehearsal of Concept Drill (x2)
Regional two-day FE/FSE
Initial Planning Conference
Focus: Determine exercise scope
The IPC will produce the following:
• Identify capabilities to be evaluated
• Determine level of participation
• Develop Exercise Evaluation Guides (EEG)
• Review Plans, Policies, and Procedures
• Identify local issues/sensitivities
• Confirm exercise schedule
Final Planning Conference
Focus: Final review of exercise productsThe FPC will produce the following:• Resolve open issues/last minute changes
• Review exercise
• MSEL approval (in concept)
• ROC Drill Prep
Outcomes• Resolved issues/last minute changes
• Exercise process and procedures approved
ROC Drill Preparations
Intent: Ensure participants are adequately prepared for the ROC Drill.
• Discuss the scenario
• Outline the process
• Ensure jurisdictional objectives are met
ROC Drill
Two day event (1/2 day, full day, 1/2 day)Participants• Evacuation Areas
• Pass through Counties
• Sheltering Areas
• SOC Reps
Preferred attendees• Elected Officials
• Appointed Officials
• EMCs
ROC Drill, continued
Scenario-driven Players respond from nodes (EOCs, DDCs,
etc)Response events followed by node brief-backs
and group discussion of actions taken
ROC Drill, continued
Held in College Station (EOTC)90 Participants per eventSingle region versus two regions per ROC
Drill• Pros & Cons
− More attendees per region with single region drill
− More cross-talk between regions with two-region drill
