Emergency Planning Final Paper
Understanding the intricacies and challenges of emergency planning is not possible without actually undertaking the preparation of an emergency plan. During this assignment, students will develop a comprehensive plan for a town or city of their choice using the FEMA Comprehensive Preparedness Guide (CPG) 101 (https://www.fema.gov/pdf/about/divisions/npd/CPG_101_V2.pdf) Develop your plan using:
• Real attributes, such as critical infrastructure within the town or city when developing the plan.
• Various special needs populations (i.e., hospitals, schools, retirement facilities, populations requiring special handling.)
• Natural hazards (i.e., hurricane, tornado, flooding, or wild fire) when developing the plan.
The plan for your jurisdiction will contain a basic plan and a minimum of five annexes to include:
• Functional annexes
• Supporting annexes
• Hazard/threat/incident specific annexes
You must use at least eight sources in addition to the course textbook when developing your research and analysis. Some of these are:
• Continuity of Government & Continuity of Operations. (2003).Emergency planning guidance for a consolidated approach [PDF file]. https://vizedhtmlcontent.next.ecollege.com/pub/content/e265b875-253d-4986-8ab2-1eaec86823c8/HSM315.Emergency_Planning_Guidance.pdf
