LLNL Emergency Management Plan Rev 24 January 2019 3.5.6 Livermore City Manager's Office-Emergency Manager The California Emergency Services Act requires the City of Livermore to manage and coordinate the overall emergency response and recovery activities within its jurisdiction. The Livermore City Council provides overall policy direction and appoints a City Manager who is responsible for implementing adopted City policies. The City Manager's Office is responsible for the operational activities of all City departments including emergency management and disaster preparedness. In July 2017, the City Council authorized construction of a new Civic Center Meeting Hall and Emergency Operations Center(EOC). The new EOC is the operational hub for coordinating City response and recovery to emergencies. The EOC is used for both training exercises and actual emergencies such as earthquakes, hazardous materials spills, floods, major fires and major traffic incidents. This EOC will be sized to meet the City's operational needs in a layout that is conducive to analysis, coordination, and response. The building will include advanced communications equipment for coordination across various governmental agencies and will provide for public communication across multiple media formats. 3.5.7 Livermore/Pleasanton Fire Department The LPFD is responsible for coordinating disaster planning and fire emergency response activities for the cities of Livermore and Pleasanton.
