LLNL Emergency Management Plan Rev 24 January 2019 conditions. Under this MOU, the LLNL ED is authorized to activate the volunteer communications resources of VERG to provide emergency and disaster communications support to LLNL. There are no other private organizations with emergency response or regulatory control responsibilities relevant to LLNL. 3.7 Memoranda of Understanding/Memoranda of Agreement MOUS and MOAs related to onsite emergency response are developed and executed in accordance with LLNL policies and procedures. These agreements are maintained as part of the Laboratory's commitment to an emergency management program that is consistent with the State of California SEMS. The Security Organization maintains MOUS with the CHP, ACSO, San Joaquin County Sheriff's Department, and the LPD to provide and receive law enforcement assistance. Assistance from the FBI comes under their jurisdiction for events involving special nuclear material, threats, or uses of weapons of mass destruction and crimes on Federal property. State, county, and City of Livermore assistance is accomplished per the provisions of the State Region II Mutual Aid Law Enforcement Plan. The EMD maintains MOUS with Eden Medical Center, Stanford Health Care-ValleyCare, and Sutter Tracy Community Hospital for providing and receiving assistance in the treatment of unique chemically-, biologically-, and/or radiologically-contaminated patients from LLNL in need of additional medical care and when the receiving hospital is not capable of medically managing the patients without support and guidance from LLNL subject matter experts. The sponsoring internal organization(Security, ES&H, etc.) is responsible for completing the appropriate review-and-approval process for each type of MOU/MOA; additional review as to legal form/content and contractual compliance is performed by the Office of General Counsel. The Department Head of EMD has concurrence on all MOUS/MOAs dealing with external agencies providing onsite emergency response (e.g., Fire Department/Emergency Management) at LLNL and for entities that provide assistance to LLNL personnel in the event of an onsite emergency(i.e., offsite medical facilities). The sponsoring internal organization is responsible for keeping the official signature copy of the MOU/MOA. MOU/MOA copies are retained by the sponsoring organization and the EMD in accordance with relevant retention schedules. Prior to scheduled renewal dates, MOUS/MOAs are to be reviewed, as appropriate,by the sponsoring internal organization to determine if updating of the MOU/MOA is necessary. The current Emergency Readiness Assurance Plan, which is maintained in the Emergency Programs Organization files, contains a list of the current MOUs/MOAs relating to the emergency management program. 55
