LLNL Emergency Plan Rev-23 October 2017 27 2.1.2.2 Emergency Management Stakeholder Advisory Group The Emergency Management Functional Area Manager (Department Head of EMD) has established, in accordance with LLNL management policy, a standing Stakeholder Advisory Group (SAG) associated with the Emergency Management Functional Area. The Emergency Management SAG is intended to facilitate collaboration among the LLNL programs and support organizations regarding cross-organizational matters for this Functional Area. The Emergency Management SAG addresses institutional requirements flow down into implementing plans/procedures, upcoming contract changes involving new or revised requirements, implementing policies, cross-cutting implementation issues, performance monitoring, and recommended program and process improvements. The Emergency Management SAG and other LLNL Functional Area SAGs serve to integrate Functional Area requirements and processes across the Laboratory for consistent and effective implementation. 2.2 Emergency Direction and Control The LLNL Director has delegated to the LEDO the authority to protect the health and safety of LLNL employees, the public, and the environment; and to maintain the security of the facility during an emergency. LEDOs are senior Laboratory managers who have been appointed, in writing, by the Director and have accepted responsibility for managing institutional response. They will assume the role of ED when the EOC is declared operational. The LLNL ERO consists of a two-tiered organization, structured to respond to emergencies (see Figure 2.2). Emergency Management Teams at each level provide command and control of the emergency response efforts. The IC is in charge of the ICS at the incident scene, and the ED is in charge of the overall site-wide response efforts and support of the IC. The EMDO is onsite or on- call at all times, and is responsible for categorizing Operational Emergencies and further classifying hazardous material Operational Emergencies as Alerts, Site Area Emergencies, or General Emergencies, if required.
