4.0 Response Teams Version :27.10.4 <br /> 14.4 INCIDENT COMMAND SYSTEM <br /> The Incident Command System (ICS) is intended to be used as an emergency management <br /> tool to aid in mitigating all types of emergency incidents. This system is readily adaptable to very <br /> small emergency incidents as well as more significant or complex emergencies. The Incident <br /> Command System utilizes the following criteria as key operational factors: <br /> • Assigns overall authority to one individual <br /> • Provides structured authority, roles and responsibilities during emergencies <br /> • The system is simple and familiar and is used routinely at all incidents <br /> • Communications are structured <br /> • There is a structured system for response and assignment of resources <br /> • The system provides for expansion, escalation, and transfer/transition of roles and <br /> responsibilities <br /> • The system allows for "Unified Command" where agency involvement at the command <br /> level is required <br /> Effective establishment and utilization of the Incident Command System during response to all <br /> types of emergencies can: <br /> • Provide for increased safety <br /> • Shorten emergency mitigation time by providing more effective and organized mitigation <br /> • Cause increased confidence and support from local, state, federal and public sector <br /> emergency response personnel <br /> • Provide a solid cornerstone for emergency planning efforts <br /> A description of each ICS position, the primary responsibilities, and pre-emergency planning <br /> activities are provided in Figures 4.1 -4.5. <br /> A brief overview of the entire ICS Structure is presented below. <br /> Click to view the file - ICS Organization <br /> Click to view the file - ICS Organization-AWAY Team Positions <br /> Click to view the file - HSC Organization <br /> Shell Supply and Distribution 4-7 Stockton Terminal FRP <br /> ©2019 Witt O' Brien's Revision Date:October, 2019 <br />
