Emergency Management For Schools
• In it’s Lessons Learned Information Sharing forum the DHS recommends to School Administrators that they consider the following:
– An All-Hazards Approach to Planning– The National Incident Management System (ICS)– The Phases of Emergency Management– Community Collaboration– The Challenges facing School Emergency Planning
Introduction to NIMS
• The National Incident Management System (NIMS) is the United States’ system for managing domestic incidents.
• NIMS is mandated by Homeland Security Presidential Directive 5
• NIMS enables community organizations, such as schools, to coordinate the management of incidents with emergency responders across all jurisdictions and functions.
• Improves coordination and cooperation between entities using a standardized set of concepts, principles and terminology.
NIMS
NIMS Concepts and Principles
• Flexible framework that applies to all phases of incident management.
• Standardized organizational structures, processes, procedures and systems to promote interoperability
NIMS
Six Key Components to NIMS1. Command and Management
• Incident Command System (ICS)• Multi-agency coordination systems• Public information systems
2. Preparedness• Planning, training, exercises• Personnel qualification and certification standards• Equipment acquisition and certification standards
3. Resource management• Standards for describing, inventorying, tracking resources
4. Communications and information management• Interoperability
5. Supporting Technologies
6. Ongoing Management & Maintenance
NIMS
NIMS Compliance-School Districts**NIMS Compliance Center Guidance
• Since school districts are an integral part of local government, their use of NIMS should be achieved in close coordination with other components of the local government. School districts are not traditional response organizations and more typically are recipients of first responder services provided by fire and rescue, emergency medical and law enforcement agencies. This traditional relationship should be acknowledged in achieving NIMS compliance within an integrated local government plan for NIMS compliance. School district participation in local government's NIMS preparedness program is essential to ensure that first responder services are delivered to schools in a timely and effective manner.
• Schools and Districts that receive federal emergency preparedness grants are required to comply with NIMS requirements; those that do not receive these grants are not required to adopt NIMS.
• School safety experts strongly encourage all schools to become NIMS compliant.
Introduction to ICS for SchoolsIS-100-SC
• FEMA’s Emergency Management Institute in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Education developed a course to promote school safety by:
– Familiarizing you with how ICS principles can be applied in school-based incidents.
– Preparing you to interface with community response personnel.

Universal for all Incident Types
Incident Command System Definition• The Incident Command System
(ICS) is a management system designed to enable effective and efficient incident management by integrating a combination of facilities, equipment standards and an incident management organization with five functional areas (command, operations, planning, logistics and finance & administration) for the management of all major incidents.
School and School District
ICSICSFirst Responders (Fire, Police,
EMT)
Partners(Mental & Public Health, Parents,
Media, etc.)
Incident Command SystemIncident Command System
ICS Impact on Local Agencies• All response agencies must use ICS.
• Personnel will be required to meet national qualification and certification standards to support an incident that transcends interstate jurisdictions.
• State and local jurisdictions will be strongly encouraged to implement mutual aid agreements.
ICS
ICS Applications
• Fires, hazardous materials releases, oil spills, and multi-casualty incidents
• Multi-jurisdictional and multi-agency disasters
• Search and rescue operations
• Law enforcement incidents
• Natural disasters
• Planned events
ICS
ICS Organization
No correlation with the administrative structure of any other agency or jurisdiction. ICS organization’s uniqueness helps to avoid confusion over different position titles and organizational structures. Someone who serves as a chief every day may not hold that title when deployed under an ICS structure.

Modular Organization
– Develops in a top-down, modular fashion based on:
• size and complexity of the incident.
• hazard environment created by the incident.
ICS
Modular Organization
– Incident objectives determine organizational size.
– Only fill necessary functions/positions.
– Each element must have a person in charge.

Formal Communication
ICS
When To Use Formal Communication
•Use formal communication when:– Receiving and giving work
assignments. – Requesting support or
additional resources.– Reporting progress of
assigned tasks.
ICS
Informal Communication
– Is used to exchange incident or event information only.
– Is NOT used for:• Formal requests for additional resources.• Tasking work assignments.
Within the ICS organization, critical information must flow freely!
ICS
Chain of Command
Chain of command is an orderly line of authority within the ranks of the incident management organization.
Authority
ICS
Unity of Command
•Under unity of command, personnel:– Report to only one supervisor. – Receive work assignments only from
their supervisors.
ICS
Unified Command
– Enables all responsible agencies to manage an incident together
– Establishes common incident objectives and strategies.
– Single command structure allows Incident Commanders to analyze intelligence and make joint decisions.
– Maintains unity of command. Each employee reports to only one supervisor.

ICS
Scope of Authority
•An Incident Commander's scope of authority is derived:– From existing laws and
agency policies and procedures, and/or
– Through a delegation of authority from the agency administrator or elected official.
ICS
Authority
•Authority is . . . . . . a right or obligation to act on behalf
of a department, agency, or jurisdiction.
ICS
Delegation of Authority – Grants authority to carry out
specific functions.– Issued by chief elected official,
chief executive officer, or agency administrator in writing or verbally.
– Allows the Incident Commander to assume command.
– Does NOT relieve the granting authority of the ultimate responsibility for the incident.
Incident Commander
Superintendent
ICS
Delegation of Authority is Needed
– If the incident is outside the Incident Commander’s home jurisdiction.
– When the incident scope is complex or beyond existing authorities.
– If required by law or procedures.
ICS
Delegation of Authority is Not Needed
•If the Incident Commander is acting within his or her existing authorities.
•An emergency manager may already have the authority to deploy response resources to a small flash flood.
•A fire chief probably has the authority (as part of the job description) to serve as an Incident Commander at a structure fire.
ICS
Delegation of Authority: Elements
•Should include:– Legal authorities and restrictions.
– Financial authorities and restrictions.

Mutual-Aid Agreements
•NIMS states that:– Mutual-aid agreements are the means
for one jurisdiction to provide resources, facilities, services, and other required support to another jurisdiction during an incident.
– Each jurisdiction should be party to a mutual-aid agreement with appropriate jurisdictions from which they expect to receive or to which they expect to provide assistance during an incident.
Command & Management
Mutual-Aid Agreements– Mutual aid is the voluntary
provision of resources by agencies or organizations to assist each other when existing resources are inadequate.
– When combined with NIMS-oriented resource management, mutual aid allows jurisdictions to share resources among mutual-aid partners.
Command & Management
Preparedness Plans
•The most common preparedness plans are:
– Preparedness Plans
– Emergency Operations Plans (EOPs).
– Standard operating guidelines (SOGs).
– Standard operating procedures (SOPs).
– Jurisdictional or agency policies.
– Corrective Action and Mitigation Plans
– Recovery Plans
Preparedness
– EOPs are developed at the Federal, State, and local levels to provide a uniform response to all hazards.
– EOPs written after October 2005 must be consistent with NIMS.

• Provides an architecture for science and technology support to incident management– Interoperability and compatibility– Technology support– Technology standards– Broad-based requirements– Strategic planning for research and development
• Operational scientific support• Technical standards• Solving operational problems through
research and development
Technology
– Check-In. • All responders must report in to:
– Ensure personnel accountability– Track resources– Prepare personnel for assignment– Locate personnel in case of emergency– Organize the demobilization process
• Personnel check in only once – upon arrival at the incident
• Following check-in, report to incident supervisor for assignment briefing
Record Keeping & Resource TrackingTechnology
– Incident Action Plan. Response operations must be coordinated as outlined in the IAP.
– Unity of Command. Each individual will be assigned to only one supervisor.
Record Keeping & Resource TrackingTechnology
Record Keeping & Resource Tracking
– Span of Control. Supervisors must be able to adequately supervise and control their subordinates, as well as communicate with and manage all resources under their supervision.
– Resource Tracking. Supervisors must record and report resource status changes as they occur.
