ABOUT THIS PLAN
This Emergency Operations Plan(EOP)contains a set of guidelines developed to assist in emergency
response efforts to disasters occurring within the City. The plan was written in accordance with the
Federal Emergency Management Agency's(FEMA)Comprehensive Preparedness Guide 101:
Developing and Maintaining Emergency Operations Plans Version 3.0 and is intended to integrate with
EOPs written for all levels of government, including cities within Ada County,the State of Idaho, and the
National Response Framework(NRF). This process used guidance from FEMA(including the National
Incident Management System [NIMS]),as well as lessons learned from disasters and emergencies that
have threatened the City and Ada County in the past.
This document is promulgated with the understanding that major emergencies and disasters are unique
events that have the potential to present the community and response personnel with extraordinary
problems and challenges that cannot be adequately addressed within the routine operations of
government. Because the size and scope of any imaginable disaster is impossible to predict,this Plan
focuses on a streamlined,all—hazards preparedness approach to contingency planning rather than
outlining highly detailed operational procedures.
Ada County is the most densely populated county in the State of Idaho. Even with its significant
capabilities for emergency response,primary responsibility for preparedness lies with following entities,
in order: (1)individuals;(2)families; (3)the City; (4)the county;and(5)the State of Idaho. While it is
the intent of the City to prepare for, respond to,and mitigate all types of emergencies and disasters,the
reality is that during a major disaster, individuals and families should be prepared to care for themselves
for at least the first 96 hours.
The Plan provides fundamental guidance for emergency responders from all agencies assigned specific
functional responsibilities within the response effort. It is based on the premise that agencies will respond
within their current capabilities. When those capabilities are exhausted,additional capabilities will be
requested through mutual aid organizations, state agencies, and finally federal agencies.
The development of the EOP and appropriate standard operating procedures is an ongoing process
requiring annual review,training,and exercises. Implementation of the EOP will require extensive
cooperation,collaboration,and training with government and non-government entities that are partners in
disaster planning and response. Continued cooperation and assistance to implement this EOP is essential
to improve the City's ability to protect its citizens.

Emergency Operations Plan
City of Eagle,Idaho
I. INTRODUCTION
Several natural and human-caused hazards pose unavoidable risk to public health and safety in and
around the City of Eagle. Preparedness for these threats and hazards of concern are high priority to
ensure life safety and preservation of property during day-to-day activities as well as planned/special
events and gatherings. One important role of the City is to anticipate hazards to minimize and otherwise
manage risk;mitigate vulnerability; and prepare for,respond to,and recover from incidents as effectively
and efficiently as possible. This emergency operations plan serves as the primary guide for conducting
emergency management within the City. This plan integrates with the county, state,and federal plans.
IL PURPOSE
The purpose of this plan is to prescribe activities to be performed by the City and its officials to protect
the lives and property of the citizens in the event of a natural or human-caused emergency or disaster.
The Emergency Operations Plan(EOP)-Basic Plan is supported by other jurisdictional plans that outline
the threats and hazards specific to each jurisdiction. This plan describes emergency operations for the
City's Emergency Coordination Team(which will collaborate via an in-person or virtual city coordination
center[CCC])and a field response which integrates of various city emergency and administrative
activities into a response effort based on the Incident Command System(ICS). The plan also describes
the interface of the City of Eagle and the on-scene incident command with the Ada County Emergency
Operations Center(EOC).
III. SCOPE
The provisions of this plan are applicable to all disaster emergencies that require a Proclamation of
Disaster Emergency by the Mayor. This plan is applicable to all response organizations acting on behalf
of the government and/or residents of the City.
Consistent with the"Whole Community"approach to emergency management,this plan provides a broad
framework for coordination of any emergency management activity. Individuals,businesses,community-
based organizations,and government agencies are encouraged to familiarize themselves with this plan
and its use within the City. Incident-and/or hazard-specific plans may augment this plan if necessary to
address specific hazards.
IV. SITUATION
The following information specific to the City of Eagle should be considered when addressing an
emergency within the City:
A. The Emergency Coordination Team will convene in the City Council Chambers at 660 E Civic Ln,
Eagle, ID 83616 as the City Coordination Center(CCC). The City of Eagle is approximately 10 miles
west of the City of Boise,the City of Meridian is to the south. The City of Eagle has a total area of
approximately 10 square miles and is part of the Boise City-Nampa, Idaho Metropolitan Statistical
Area.According to the 2020 census,the population is approximately 30,000.
B. The City is governed by a mayor-city council form of government,with the Mayor and four-elected
City Council members. The City consists of 10 departments,including:the Building Department;

tr City of Eagle,Idaho
City Clerk/Treasurer's Office; City of Eagle Water;Eagle Museum of History and Preservation;
Economic Development; Information Technology; Public Library,the Parks,Pathways&Recreation;
the Planning and Zoning Department; and the Public Works Department. Additionally,the following
agencies, departments,or entities provide services to the city via contract or other legal obligation:
Ada County Sheriff's Office and the Eagle Fire Protection District. Engineering, information
technology,and legal services are also contracted with outside entities.
C. When a local disaster emergency has been proclaimed, the Mayor may govern by proclamation, and
has the authority to impose all necessary regulations to preserve the peace and order of the city.
D. The City is subject to a variety of hazards. The most likely and damaging hazards faced by the City
include flooding, severe weather, wildfires, hazardous materials, and earthquakes. The current Ada
County All Hazard Mitigation Plan and Hazard Vulnerability Assessment contain additional
information.
V. ASSUMPTIONS
The following assumptions were made for the preparation of this plan:
A. "Disaster"means occurrence or imminent threat of widespread or severe damage, injury,or loss of life
or property resulting from any natural or man-made incident, including but not limited to fire, flood,
earthquake, windstorm, wave action, volcanic activity, explosion, riot, or hostile military or
paramilitary action, including acts of terrorism.
B. All jurisdictions,agencies,and personnel responding to an emergency will do so in a manner consistent
with National Incident Management System(NIMS)and the incident command system(ICS).
C. Adjacent cities and other government entities will render assistance in accordance with the provisions
of written intergovernmental and mutual aid support agreements in place at the time of the emergency.
D. When city resources are fully committed, and mutual aid from surrounding jurisdictions is exhausted,
Ada County Emergency Management and Community Resilience (EMCR) is available to coordinate
assistance and help satisfy unmet incident needs through the Ada County Emergency Operations Center
(EOC)—a facility maintained and operated by EMCR and staffed by personnel from area emergency
management partners throughout the County. EMCR can call for mutual aid from adjacent counties or
from the Idaho Office of Emergency Management. Ultimately,the State can ask the federal government
for assistance for major disasters or emergencies.
E. Whenever warranted,the Mayor may declare a disaster emergency for the City in accordance with the
provisions in Title 46,Chapter 10 of the State Disaster Preparedness Act. In the event of any emergency
requiring evacuation or sheltering, the Mayor or designee will communicate the information to the
public by appropriate means, including the Emergency Alert System (EAS), route alerting, or other
technologies.
F. In the event of an evacuation of the City or any part thereof,evacuees will use their own transportation
resources, when available. Additionally, those with companion or service animals will also provide
transportation for their animals.
Emergency Operations Plan/October 2023

AZ, i.
Emergency Operations Plan
City of Eagle,Idaho
G. In the absence of personal transportation, the City will coordinate a means of evacuation from the
impacted area(s) to pre-determined shelters and/or safe zones in accordance with the City of Eagle
evacuation plan and in coordination with all relevant emergency support functions(ESF)from the Ada
County Emergency Operations Center(EOC)
H. Emergency shelters may be activated using pre-designated locations such as public schools,churches,
or other locations that have been established prior to the incident. Shelters will be operated by
Volunteer Organizations Active in Disasters(VOAD),such as the American Red Cross and established
in coordination with all relevant emergency support functions(ESF)from the Ada County Emergency
Operations Center(EOC). Shelter operators will provide basic services including, but not limited to,
shelter, food, basic first aid, and mental health and spiritual care, and will maintain a registration of
individuals housed in the shelter.
I. Special facilities such as educational facilities or custodial care centers will be encouraged to develop,
coordinate, and furnish emergency plans to the emergency services organizations of the City and the
county, and other government agencies as applicable and required by codes, laws, regulations, or
requirements.
J. Facilities covered by the Emergency Planning and Community Right to Know Act (EPCRA) must
annually submit an emergency and hazardous chemical inventory form to the State Emergency
Response Committee (SERC), the Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC), and the
jurisdictional fire department. The inventory forms(TIER II Forms)require basic facility identification
information, employee contact information (both emergency and non-emergency), and information
about chemicals stored or used at the facility.
VI. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS
The following factors make up the concept of operations for emergency management within the City:
A. This plan embraces the "all-hazards" principle that most emergency response functions are similar,
regardless of the hazard.
B. The Mayor and the City Council are responsible for the protection of the lives and property of the
citizens. The Mayor exercises primary supervision and control of emergency management activities
within the City.
C. The City will embrace and utilize NIMS and ICS to support response activities on-scene and in the
CCC.
D. The city will maintain an Emergency Coordination Team (ECT). Members of the ECT will convene
in the City Coordination Center to receive updates from field response Incident Command and address
legal, fiscal,and other matters of concern related to a present or imminent threat or hazard. This Team
may encompass the city attorney, police chief, fire chief, city clerk, and other department
heads/personnel deemed necessary by the Mayor to address the disaster emergency.
E. First response agencies (Fire, Law Enforcement, Emergency Medical etc.) may activate and employ
the Incident Command System in response to either planned or emergency events. Dependent on
incident requirements, the ECT may activate to advise incident response, serve as liaisons, or
operationalize based on their areas of expertise and responsibility.

The Incident Commander(IC)and CCC staff will operate in accordance with NIMS requirements and
jurisdictional policies.
Consistent with NIMS doctrine,the ICS structure for any incident should have:
1. A manageable span of control for each position or organizational element in the ICS structure(3
to 7 staff; optimum is 5)
2. Unity of Command(each person reports to only one person in the chain of command)
3. Positions are staffed only when needed. Responsibilities for any positions that are not staffed
remain with the next-higher filled position.
G. Emergency events may be managed solely by first responders using ICS from a Command Post. Once
city resources are required for the response,the Incident Commander may request them from the
ECT. The IC may make requests to the County EOC if required resources are not available through
the ECT.
H. The Mayor may appoint a liaison or designee to provide coordination services to an Incident
Command structure operating out of a Command Post on behalf of the Mayor and other city officials.

I. The Mayor,their designee,or IC will mobilize resources and personnel as required by the emergency.
J. The appropriate officials will develop and maintain mutual aid agreements with adjacent cities,
districts,and the county for reciprocal emergency assistance as needed.
K. Emergency response personnel and equipment of a responding mutual aid organization remain under
the administrative and policy procedures and control of their respective organization, including
medical protocols, standard operating procedures, and other personnel policies. Personnel of the
responding organization shall maintain direct and overall control of vehicles and equipment to ensure
these items are used within the intended specifications.
L. The CCC functions as the meeting location of the ECT and can also house specific ICS structures,
sections,or elements, such as the finance and administration section,public information officer(PIO),
etc.,as necessary to support the incident.
M. The Mayor can establish a public information officer(PIO)to handle media inquiries and releases of
public information;the Mayor's PIO will function as part of a Joint Information System (JIS)with the
incident PIO and other PIOs assembled in collaboration with the County EOC.
N. When the CCC is activated,the center and appropriate elements of the incident command structure
will communicate and coordinate their activities related to response and matters of policy and/or
authorities. The Mayor or designee will assume the role of ECT Leader and assign responsibilities
for ECT participants in the CCC consistent with their training and experience to meet the needs of the
IC and response priorities.
O. When the Ada County EOC is activated,the CCC will communicate and coordinate with the County
EOC. Note: Information about the Ada County EOC operation is located in Appendix D.
P. Positions may be staffed as needed in both the incident command post and the CCC,depending on the
incident and the resource requirements necessary for the city officials to address the emergency.
Q. After receiving notice of a potential emergency from the National Terrorism Advisory System,the
National Weather Service watches and warnings, or other reliable sources,consideration should be
given to increasing the readiness posture of the City by ensuring appropriate personnel are monitoring
the potential event or by activating the ECT in the CCC. Readiness postures include:
1. Monitoring Status—Conditions exist where an event or emergency may threaten the jurisdiction;
however,the consequences of the event have not yet impacted the city. Key emergency response
personnel and the Mayor are aware of a developing situation and receiving situational reports
from field elements(fire,police,public works,etc.)and/or Incident Command as needed. An
individual may be assigned to perform liaison duties with the EMCR and brief other key city
personnel.
2. Activation—The effects of the emergency are expanding, and all appropriate personnel are
present in the CCC as directed by the Mayor or mayor's designee per the demands of the incident.
Since the situation during each incident is different, staff will be activated as necessary to address
the demands of the response and recovery efforts.

R. Communication,Alert and Warning may be provided to the public through a variety of methods,
including National Weather Service NOAA Weather Wire System and NOAA Weather Radio; The
Emergency Alert System (EAS); Wireless Emergency Alerts(WEA); local Broadcast Media; and
Emergency Vehicles/Door-to-door. Newsletters, brochures, and other publications will be used for
less time-sensitive emergency preparedness messaging.
VII. ORGANIZATION AND ASSIGNMENT OF RESPONSIBILITIES
The Idaho State Disaster Preparedness Act, as amended by the Homeland Security Act of 2004,requires
that states and counties develop plans to prepare for disasters and emergencies from natural or man-made
causes, including enemy attack, acts of sabotage, or other hostile action(Idaho Code §46-1001). General
roles and responsibilities of state agencies are outlined in Governor's Executive Order 2010-09,
"Assignment of All-Hazard Mitigation,Preparedness,Response,and Recovery Functions to State
Agencies in Support of Local and State Government Relating to Emergencies and Disasters."' The
responsibilities of federal, state, county,and local government are provided in the sections below as they
are described in the Idaho Emergency Operations Plan, promulgated December 2019.
A. Federal Government
When an incident occurs that exceeds or is anticipated to exceed local or state resources,or when an
incident is managed by federal departments or agencies acting under their own authorities,the federal
government uses the National Response Framework to involve all necessary department and agency
capabilities,organize the federal response, and ensure coordination with response partners.2
B. State Government
Governor- "During the continuance of any state of disaster emergency the Governor is commander-
in-chief of the militia and may assume command of all other forces available for emergency duty. To
the greatest extent practicable,the Governor shall delegate or assign command authority by prior
arrangement embodied in appropriate executive orders or regulations,but nothing herein restricts
his/her authority to do so by orders issued at the time of the disaster emergency."'
Office of Emergency Management-(1)coordinates state and federal emergency response, recovery,
and mitigation operations during emergencies and disasters;(2)provides technical support to local
jurisdictions involved in local emergencies and disasters that do not require state resources; (3)
coordinates collaborative efforts with other state governments and federal agencies; and(4)
coordinates all requests from state and local governments for disaster emergency assistance.4
C. Ada County
Each county shall maintain a disaster agency or participate in an intergovernmental disaster agency,
"which...has jurisdiction over and serves the entire county, or shall have a liaison officer appointed
by the county commissioners designated to facilitate the cooperation and protection of that
subdivision in the work of disaster prevention, preparedness,response, and recovery."' "Each county
and/or intergovernmental agency shall prepare and keep current a local or intergovernmental disaster
emergency plan for its area."'

D. City of Eagle
"A local disaster emergency may be declared only by a mayor or chairman of the county
commissioners within their respective political subdivisions. It shall not be continued or renewed for
a period in excess of seven(7)days except by or with the consent of the governing board of the
political subdivision. Any order or proclamation declaring, continuing,or terminating a local disaster
emergency shall be given prompt and general publicity and shall be filed promptly with the local
county recorder."'
"The effect of a declaration of a local disaster emergency is to activate the response and recovery
aspects of any and all applicable local or intergovernmental disaster emergency plans and to authorize
the furnishing of aid and assistance thereunder."8
The City has three primary roles in a disaster:
• Manage emergency response policy-level processes, including:
o Declaration of a disaster emergency
o Prioritization of limited resources
o Coordination of multi-agency integration
• Share information with emergency organizations and the public
• Perform emergency response activities
The CCC plays an important role in managing emergency policy, issuing formal declarations of
emergency, supporting evacuations, and determining priorities are all activities that fall within the
domain of the Mayor and the ECT.
Emergency priorities and incident objectives, in decreasing order of importance,are typically to:
• Protect life safety, including first responders
• Stabilize the incident
• Protect property,especially critical infrastructure
• Protect the environment
Individuals assigned to work in the CCC may benefit from ICS training to a minimum level that includes
ICS 100&200,IS 700, and IS 800. Elected officials and ECT members should complete ICS 402,ICS
Overview for Executives/Senior Officials; ICS 402 is an introduction and overview of the ICS system for
elected officials and senior staff that covers basic ICS principles and emergency management.
Jurisdictional staff that may be assigned to the field-level ICS response should complete additional ICS
training(such as ICS 300 and 400)consistent with the training programs developed by their respective
agency or department. This will enable City of Eagle personnel to contribute to the response in different
operational capacities(i.e.,the City Coordination Center,the field-level incident response,or the County
Emergency Operations Center). The training of jurisdictional personnel should conform to the U.S.
Department of Homeland Security National Incident Management System guidelines.

The Mayor, designee,or IC assigns individuals to positions associated with the response according to
operational need, individual capability, and experience.
1. Mayor and the Emergency Coordination Team
The Mayor of the City is responsible for establishing the policy consistent with his/her authority
and may consult policy-level stakeholders in the ECT during disaster emergencies. The Mayor
will provide for continuity of operations and the establishment of lines of succession for key
positions. The Mayor may convene the Emergency Coordination Team (ECT)at the CCC where
appropriate personnel will gather to address the emergency within the City. An emergency
operations plan for the City,that integrates with the Ada County EOP,will be updated,and
reviewed by the Mayor's designee.
The Idaho Disaster Preparedness Act of 1975 stipulates that the Mayor is responsible for the
declaration of a local disaster emergency. The Mayor,his/her designee, or the IC may
recommend protective actions(such as evacuation or shelter in place)if the situation warrants.
This local disaster emergency shall expire within 7 days unless the City Council expressly
authorizes the continuance of such declaration.
The ECT is responsible for setting emergency response policy and providing guidance and
resources to ICs. The policy decisions and activities this group may consider, and support
include,but are not limited to:
• Deciding how to allocate limited physical, financial,and personnel resources to support
competing incident priorities.
• Considering the legal and moral implications of initiating an activity or not initiating any
action.
• Recalling city personnel and contracted staff to support activities of the incident
command structure in the field,the CCC or the Ada County EOC.
o Recalled employees may be assigned tasks outside of their normal,daily
activities and in accordance with contractual agreements.
o No employee may be assigned a task they have not been trained to accomplish in
a safe and competent manner.
• Waiving the normal procurement process,as allowed under a disaster emergency,and
engaging in contracts outside of the formal bidding process.
o These activities must comply with any relevant state and federal guidance.
• Deciding whether to issue a Delegation of Authority.
o A Delegation of Authority is a statement provided to the Incident Commander by
the Mayor delegating authority and assigning responsibility.
o A Delegation of Authority should contain objectives,priorities, expectations,
constraints,and other considerations as needed.It should be prepared by senior
agency personnel and signed by the Mayor or designee.
o All Delegations of Authority should be reviewed by legal counsel.
• Developing a plan to conduct preliminary damage assessment activities and report the
findings to the Ada County EOC.
o Information gathered will be passed along to the State EOC and used to justify a
request for a federal disaster declaration,as appropriate.

from the CCC. The incident commander(IC)is responsible for all aspects of an emergency
response—including quickly developing incident objectives,managing all incident operations,
and applying resources—and is responsible for all persons involved. The IC implements policy
and decisions provided by the ECT. The IC provides information and recommendations to the
ECT for consideration.
The IC sets priorities based on policy decisions received from the Mayor/ECT and defines the
organization of the incident response teams and the overall Incident Action Plan(IAP). Senior or
higher-qualified officers may assume the role of IC upon their arrival on scene,or as the situation
dictates. Even if subordinate positions are not assigned,the IC position will always be designated
or assumed. The IC may,at their own discretion,assign individuals who may be from the same
agency or from assisting agencies to subordinate or assume specific positions for the duration of
the emergency response. The IC is assisted by the Command Staff and the General Staff.
3. Command Staff
The Command Staff is assigned to carry out staff functions needed to support the IC. These
functions include interagency liaison, incident safety,and public information. Command Staff
positions are established to assign responsibility for key activities not specifically identified in the
general staff functional elements. These positions(described below) include the Public
Information Officer(PIO), Safety Officer,and Liaison Officer, in addition to various other
positions as required and assigned by the IC.
a. Public Information Officer(PIO)
The PIO is a member of the Command Staff responsible for interfacing with the public and
media or with other agencies with incident-related information requirements. They serve as
the conduit for information to and from internal and external stakeholders, including the
media or other organizations seeking information directly from the incident or event. The PIO
is also responsible for ensuring that members of an incident's Command Staff are kept
apprised of information reported publicly about the incident.All PIOs involved with the
response(Mayor,Incident Command Structure,EOC)are expected to coordinate their
situational awareness and public communications via a Joint Information System(JIS).
b. Safety Officer
The Safety Officer is a member of the Command Staff responsible for monitoring and
assessing safety hazards or unsafe situations,and for developing measures for ensuring
personnel safety.
c. Liaison Officer
The Liaison Officer is a member of the Command Staff responsible for coordinating with
representatives from cooperating and assisting agencies. They serve as the primary contact
for agencies responding to the situation. Liaison Officers often provide technical or subject-
matter expertise of their parent organization.
4. General Staff Functions
Operations, planning, logistics,and financial/administrative section functions are described
below.
Emergency Operations Plan I October 2023
ems.
* * Emergency Operations Plan
City of Eagle,Idaho
a. Operations Section
The Operations Section is responsible for managing all tactical operations at an incident. The
IAP provides the necessary guidance. The need to expand the Operations Section is generally
dictated by the number of tactical resources involved in the incident response and is
influenced by span-of-control considerations.
Assets from City departments and jurisdictional entities/authorities, such as police, fire,Ada
County Paramedics, public works,Ada County Highway District,performing field
emergency response operations typically answer to the operations section. Additional
functions may include shelters,reception centers, or points of distribution centers.
b. Planning Section
The Planning Section is responsible for providing planning services for the incident.Under
the direction of the Planning Section Chief,the Planning Section collects, evaluates,and
processes situation and resource status information for use in developing action plans.
Dissemination of information can be accomplished through the IAP, in formal briefings, or
through map and status board displays.
Planning functions and plan implementation may occur at several levels simultaneously. It is
critical that entities such as the CCC,the incident command post, and the Ada County EOC
communicate to ensure a common operating picture. The Mayor and the ECT may have to
consider the expenses related to long term operations.
c. Logistics Section
The Logistics Section provides all incident support needs,with the exception of logistics
support to air operations. The Logistics Section is responsible for providing:
• Facilities
• Transportation
• Communications
• Supplies
• Equipment maintenance and fueling
• Food services(for responders)
• Medical services(for responders)
• All off-incident resources
The need for logistics considerations and planning exists at multiple levels. The CCC must
account for emergency power, food,water, communications, and other needs of operating the
center. The on-scene incident command post must account for staffing to ensure the rotation
of personnel through safe rest/work cycles; shelter,feeding, and restroom facilities for
personnel; acquisition of proper equipment for performing operations during the day and at
night; etc. The coordination of resource requests must be funneled through a singular process
to eliminate duplicative asset requests and account for payment of the resources requested.
d. Finance/Administration Section
The Finance/Administration Section is responsible for managing all financial aspects of an
incident.Not all incidents will require the activation of a Finance/Administration Section
Emergency Operations Plan/October 2023
w
CE� quo Emergency Operations Plan
City of Eagle,Idaho
during response operations;however,appropriate documentation and payment to resource
vendors will still be required. It is imperative that ICs and other city personnel are familiar
with the resource request process and follow the proper procedures for requesting a resource
that will require payment by the city.
5. City Departments and Allied Partners
The city departments and allied partners perform the daily functions to support operations. In
addition to city departments, several organizations provide services, either through statutory
authority, contract,or other form of agreement. During a disaster emergency,these organizations
may be called upon to perform duties at:
• The scene of disaster emergency
• An incident command post
• The Emergency Coordination Team (ECT)and CCC
• The Ada County EOC
a. The Building Department—responsible for reviewing the integrity of city owned
assets and facilities, including any city buildings or structures and structures within
the jurisdiction, etc.
b. City Clerk/Treasurer's Office—responsible for tracking disaster related expenses,
including overtime, supplies,contractor expenses,etc.; maintaining disaster
declaration documents, developing emergency contracts; and protection of vital
records.
c. Eagle Fire Protection District—responsible for fire suppression, search and rescue,
provision of medical treatment(within their level of training and authorization)and
mitigation of other hazards.
d. Parks,Pathways,&Recreation Department—responsible for the care and
maintenance of all City parks and pathways,buildings and facilities and other
appropriate tasks as assigned by the Mayor.
e. The Planning and Zoning Department is responsible for assisting in disaster response
activities,as directed by the Mayor.
f. Police Department—(contracted service with Ada County Sherriff's Office)
responsible for law enforcement duties, including access and traffic control around an
incident, enforcement of any curfews, scene security, investigation of criminal
activities,and providing other assistance as appropriate to the IC.
6. Emergency Coordination Team Roles and Responsibilities
The following table contains examples of the types of duties performed the Emergency
Coordination Team before,during and after an emergency event. Those listed and other
responsibilities may be assigned during an incident as part of the city's response or in

VIII. COMMUNICATIONS
Delivery of emergency information to responders and the public is important during a disaster emergency.
Communications between the CCC, on-scene incident command,the Ada County EOC, and the Sheriff's
Communications Center may occur via different methods,depending on the situation. Information may
be transmitted to emergency responders via the following methods:
• County-wide 700MHz radio system
Emergency public information is information provided to the general public. Information and guidance
released must describe the basic emergency situation and provide specific expected actions for the public.
These actions may include shelter-in-place, evacuation recommendations, shelter locations, or other
incident-specific information. Methods for delivering emergency public information available to the City
include:
• Route alerting via police and fire apparatus
• Local media outlets, including television and radio
• Emergency Alert System(EAS)
• Wireless Emergency Alerts(Ada County 911 Dispatch)
• National Weather Service NOAA Weather Radio and Weather Wire Services
• Text messages via the County Community Mass Notification system(CodeRED via Ada
County 911 Dispatch)
EMCR can accept notifications and requests for assistance through the Ada County Sheriff's Office 9-1-
1 Emergency Communications Center. EMCR can interface with the Idaho Office of Emergency
Management(IOEM)to request additional support and resources for local emergencies.
Additional communications methods available through the County include:
Emergency Operations Plan/October 2023
lit, Emergency Operations Plan
City of Eagle,Idaho
o County-wide 700MHz radio system
o Cellular phones
o Land-line telephone connection
o Satellite Telephone
o Facsimiles
o E-mail communication
o Auxiliary Communications Services(ACS)
Specific situations may require additional radio network operators and capability. Ada County ACS,
available through EMCR,may be activated to provide communication capabilities between shelters,
hospitals, or other facilities that require assistance for emergency information flow.
IX. ADMINISTRATION AND LOGISTICS
The following administrative measures will be taken during disaster response activities:
A. During a disaster, appropriate city representatives will submit reports, requests for assistance, and
damage assessments to the Ada County EOC when requested.
B. The Ada County EOC will receive all requests for assistance via a standardized Ada Co.213RR form.
Based on availability of resources, the EOC may forward reports and requests for assistance to the
Idaho Office of Emergency Management(IOEM).
C. The City and all other agencies/jurisdictions responding to an event within city limits will use pre-
established bookkeeping and accounting methods to track and maintain records of expenditures and
obligations.
D. The City will keep narrative and written log-type records of response actions. These records will form
the basis for status reports to be submitted to the EMCR and IOEM, when requested.
X. CONTINUITY OF GOVERNMENT
Disasters can have an adverse impact not only on the residential population,but also the local
government. This impact may disrupt the ability of the city government to carry out executive,
legislative,and other jurisdictional functions required to sustain operations. Continuity of Government
(COG)planning is essential to ensure that the City can support the functions required throughout the
response and recovery phases of a disaster. COG programs include, but are not limited to:
• Order of Succession
• Identification of alternate facilities
• Identification of critical tasks
• Protection of vital records/information systems
Order of Succession
There may be instances when an individual who is designated as a leader may be unable to fill their
leadership role. When the role is essential to the City's ability to complete its critical missions,a
successor must be named to assume the duties and responsibilities of that role. In the event that any
official of any political subdivision is unavailable,the powers of the position shall be exercised, and
Emergency Operations Plan/October 2023
Ir

City of Eagle,Idaho
duties shall be discharged by the designated emergency interim successors in the order specified. The
emergency interim successor shall exercise the powers and discharge the duties of the office to which
designated until such time as a vacancy which may exist shall be filled in accordance with the constitution
or statutes or until the official(or their deputy or a preceding emergency interim successor)again
becomes available to exercise the powers and discharge their duties. Table 1 and 2 are the order of

Identification of Alternate Facilities
During a disaster,the normal place(s)where city operations occur may not be available. In this event,
city personnel and activities will be conducted at the pre-identified back up facility. The City will
conduct emergency and critical functions at the following alternate location(s):
Table 3: Alternate Facilities
Critical Facility Alternate Site
City Hall Eagle Senior Center
660 E. Civic Lane 312 E. State Street
Eagle, ID 83616 Eagle, ID 83616
Identification of Critical Tasks
Each city has critical tasks to complete on a daily basis. This may include collection of tax revenues,
generation of payroll,maintenance of facilities,or other required tasks. Identification of the most critical
tasks or processes in advance of a disaster will provide guidance to personnel in an emergency.
Please identify the top 3 or 4 critical tasks necessary for the City to reconstitute during a disaster:
1. Maintain or restore communications and information technology infrastructure.
2. Ensure all employees and their families are provided with appropriate support, including shelter,
food,prophylaxis,and critical incident stress debriefing.
3. Restore functionality to critical city facilities.
4. Develop cost tracking for time and materials for employees,contractors, and materials.
5. Restore potable water service.
Protection of Vital Records/Information Systems
City leadership will require certain vital records during a disaster. Protection of, and access to
these records requires planning. Vital Records are the documents required to continue the mission of the
city departments and agencies during and after a disaster. The records will assist in providing services both
to internal city departments and external customers,such as citizens,contractors,other government entities.
Example documents may include:
• This EOP
• Any other Continuity of Government/Continuity of Operations Plan
• Computer system back-ups/servers
• Order of Succession Ordnances or Resolutions
• Plans,policies,and procedures for critical processes
• Payroll information
Emergency Operations Plan/October 2023
Emergency Operations Plan
City of Eagle,Idaho
• Emergency contact lists
• Contracts and leases
• Legal and financial records
• Insurance documents
Each city department's functional responsibilities and business needs are different. Department heads must
document which records are vital and assign responsibilities for record preservation to appropriate staff.
The City has assigned the role of Vital Records coordination to the City Clerk. The City Clerk ensures that
the Records Retention Policy is maintained by all departments and supports the objective of record
availability in a disaster.
Each department head shall create a list of Vital Records and develop an action plan to ensure availability
of records during a disaster. Records may be available via hard copy or electronic media.
XI. PLAN REQUIREMENTS, MAINTENANCE, AND
DISTRIBUTION
The maintenance and implementation of the City of Eagle EOP is the responsibility of the Mayor(who
may delegate authority to make changes,but not the responsibility to affect those changes). The plan
components will be reviewed and updated by the appropriate personnel annually or as significant changes
are noted within the City. Whenever portions of this plan are implemented in an emergency event or
exercise, a review will be conducted to determine necessary changes. Changes to the hazards and
vulnerabilities of the City shall also warrant a review of this plan.
Annual training will be provided to appropriate City staff expected to participate in an emergency
response. A record of this training will be retained by the City at the CCC. A just-in-time training should
be available to personnel that may be assigned to the CCC outside of the annual training cycle.
This plan and its supporting materials are controlled documents. While distribution of the"Basic Plan"is
allowable,additional supporting documentation that has been developed(such as notification lists,
hazard-specific annexes, or personal information listings)are not considered to be available to the public.
Distribution is based on a regulatory or functional"need to know". Copies of this plan are distributed
according to an approved control list. A record of distribution,by copy number, is maintained on file by
the Mayor or the designee.Controlled copies of revisions will be distributed to designated plan holders.
Revisions or changes are documented by means of the"Record of Changes"page near the front of this
EOP. A receipt system will be used to verify the update process.

CENTER
Ada County Emergency Operations Center(EOC)
Ada County maintains an emergency operations center(EOC),located at 7200 Barrister Drive,Boise. Ada
County Emergency Management and Community Resilience (EMCR) manages the EOC. The facility is
located in the same building with the Ada County Sheriff's Office. The EOC may be activated to support
a city response,an event that affects multiple jurisdictions,a county-wide event,or an event that affects the
region or state. Employees and volunteers from various local,county,regional,and state entities are called
