LLNL Emergency Management Plan Rev 24 January 2019 the point-of-contact identified by the site. ACRECC serves as the 24 hours-a-day initial point-of- contact at LLNL. When ACRECC receives a DOE HQ notification message, Fire Dispatch personnel acknowledge the notification as directed by the message, and then provide the message information to the on- duty LEDO. EMD has established a specific email account (EOC@llnl.gov) that is provided to DOE HQ for notification by email messages. This email address is set-up to forward any email received at the ACRECC email account(which is an ACFD email domain) to all EMDOs and all ORDOs. Due to the important nature of these messages, the on-duty EMDO will contact ACRECC to verify that they have acknowledged the message with DOE HQ and that they have passed the message information to the on-duty LEDO. 6.2 Communications Emergency communications is defined as the ability of emergency responders to exchange information via data, voice, and video as authorized, to complete their missions. Emergency responders at all levels must have interoperable and seamless communications to manage emergency response, establish command and control, maintain situational awareness, and function under a common operating picture for a broad scale of incidents. Emergency communications consists of three primary elements: 1. Operability—The ability of emergency responders to establish and sustain communications in support of mission operations. 2. Interoperability—The ability of emergency responders to communicate among jurisdictions, disciplines, and various levels, using a variety of frequency bands, as needed and as authorized. System operability is required for system interoperability. 3. Continuity of Communications—The ability of emergency response agencies to maintain communications in the event of damage to or destruction of the primary infrastructure. 6.2.1 Secure Communications The LLNL EOC has the capability for secure communications using a secure telephone unit and secure facsimile for connectivity to DOE/NNSA HQ Operations Center. NNSA's ECNNTC equipment is located in the support area of the EOC. 6.2.2 Communications with Offsite Agencies The primary communications system for official initial offsite notification is AtHoc. This is a web-based digital communications system. Once the EOC is operational, telefax is the primary means of offsite notification and AtHoc becomes the back-up. 74
