Continuity of Operations Planning for Tribal Governments

not working? you may need adobe flash plugin

Continuity of Operations Planning (COOP) is important for all organizations since floods, fires, earthquakes and terrorist acts or other hazards can impact all parts of the country.  Tribal officials should plan for continuing vital functions due to the important role they play in supporting the Tribe and its members.  This video is FEMA’s initial effort to engage with Tribal officials concerning the importance of COOP efforts and the types of activities they should be exploring to ensure continued service delivery of vital functions.  FEMA will soon be piloting COOP training specifically for Tribes which we hope to be providing to Tribal representatives this year.  Please contact your State Emergency Management Agency or FEMA Regional office for more information.

Added Sept 13th, 2007:   WA State Avian Influenza Response Plan

This is being distributed by David Hodgeboom, Homeland Security Program, Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA).   The plan provides an overview of the roles, responsibilities and lines of communication among local, state, and federal agencies that have responsibilities in a “highly pathogenic avian influenza” (HPAI) animal disease emergency. 

This plan was developed cooperatively by the Washington Department of Agriculture, the Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife, the Washington Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory, the Washington Department of Health, the Washington Military Department (EMD), the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Wildlife Services and Veterinary Services, and the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service.  

WSDA is in the process of scheduling a tabletop exercise to ensure the plan is understood and works for all involved.  This plan provides the response framework for all agencies to work from and will be shared with neighboring states and provinces.   

If you have questions or would like additional information please call Dave Hodgeboom at:  (360) 725-5508, fax: (360) 902-2092, or email: dhodgeboom@agr.wa.gov
