Emergency Operations Plan Annex

 The student will choose to develop either a functional annex, an incident/threat-specific annex, or a support annex. Functional annexes can cover issues such as direction and control, continuity of government/operations, communications, warning, emergency public information, evacuation, mass care, health and medical, or resource management. Incident/Threat-specific annexes describe the policies, situation, concept of operations, and responsibilities for particular hazards or incident types. Support annexes describe the framework through which a jurisdiction’s departments and agencies, the private sector, not-for-profit and volunteer organizations, and other nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) coordinate and execute the common emergency management strategies.
