LLNL Emergency Management Plan Rev 24 January 2019 Emergency Response Command & Control IC—Typically senior officer from Fire Department or Security initially Incident responding to scene. Responsible for: protecting life, property and assets; Commander establishing incident objectives and goals; selecting the appropriate strategy and performing tactical directions until established goals are achieved. Once on scene, a Unified Command is formed by the Fire Department and Security. In a security event,the Senior Security Official relays information to the SDO until the Tactical Operations Center(TOC)is activated, then all information goes through the TOC Official to the Security Lead in the EOC. EMDO—An on-call position that has 24/7 responsibility for categorizing and EMDO classifying an emergency based on information received from the Battalion Chief or SDO. EMDO also reviews protective action decisions made by the IC and can issue protective actions and/or protective action recommendations if IC decisions are less conservative than procedural guidance. EMDO issues initial DOE and offsite agency notifications, briefs LEDO, and makes other courtesy notifications. EMDO also activates the ERO(automatically Full Activation for Site Area Emergency and General Emergency,and based on LEDO discretion for Alert and a non-classified Operational Emergency). LEDO—An on-call 24/7 representative of the LLNL Director who is LEDO responsible for managing institutional response and support to the IC during an emergency. ED—Individual with the authority and responsibility to implement the facility/site emergency plan and exercise overall emergency management responsibility at all times during a response to an Operational Emergency. After EOC is declared operational,the ED assumes responsibilities for Emergency categorization and classification, protective actions onsite(excluding the Director incident scene controlled by the IC), protective action recommendations,and notifications. Figure 2.3 Emergency Response Command and Control 2.2.3 Areas of Responsibility for Command and Control • Classification authority resides with the EMDO prior to EOC being declared operational. • The LEDO is responsible for determining the appropriate level of ERO activation for most Operational Emergencies. A Full Activation is automatically made by the EMDO for an Operational Emergency declared a Site Area Emergency or General Emergency. The LEDO also has the authority to activate the ERO (EOC and DOCs) for emergency events that are not Operational Emergencies,but where the organizational structure of the ERO and the resources it has increases the effectiveness of LLNL's response to the event. 30
