LLNL Emergency Management Plan Rev 24 January 2019 The field ERO consists of personnel from the Fire Department(Fire, HazMat, Emergency Medical Services), the ES&H Teams and the Security Organization. During normal working hours or for major off-hour incidents, an individual from EMD will respond to the incident command post to serve as an On-Scene Communicator of critical information between the IC and key elements of the LLNL emergency organization. 2.3.1.1 Alameda County Fire Department The onsite Fire Department has primary responsibility for providing the LLNL and Sandia National Laboratories/California with emergency response services for fire, technical rescue, hazardous materials, and emergency medical incidents. The onsite Fire Department is administratively a part of the EMD and is operated and staffed by ACFD under contract to LLNS. Two full-time stations are staffed by the ACFD at LLNL with firefighters at Site 200 (Station 20) and at Site 300 (Station 21). A Battalion Chief is on duty for all LLNL emergencies, and resides at Station 20. The ACFD also operates the ACRECC. Located at LLNL, the center also coordinates mutual aid request for the County of Alameda. The contract with ACFD for emergency response services at LLNL is administered and monitored by EMD's Fire and Building Safety Division Leader, who serves as the LLNS Technical Representative for the contract. See Sections 4.1.4 and 4.1.6 for a description on the ACFD equipment and ACRECC operations at LLNL. 2.3.1.2 Environment, Safety, and Health Teams The ES&H Teams are composed of ES&H specialists and technicians from the ES&H Directorate. The ES&H Teams provide direct support to Laboratory programs/facilities and are the key interface between line organizations and ES&H support organizations. During emergencies, they provide technical support and consultation to the on-scene IC, be it Security or Fire. The IC works closely with the area ES&H Team through the ES&H Team Leader to develop an incident action plan for controlling emergencies. This plan identifies health and safety requirements, strategic goals, and tactical objectives to protect life, the environment, and property. Under the direction of the IC, a liaison(e.g., ES&H Team Leader, deputy, or technician supervisor) for the cognizant ES&H Team will coordinate all ES&H Team activities at the emergency scene. During normal working hours, ES&H Team members respond to the emergency scene and report to the IC. 32
