LLNL Emergency Management Plan (EPlan) Rev 27 January 2022 11 Sustained Response: E+72 Hours to E+14 Days • Reestablish the Medical and Public Health Systems. • Provide Care and Shelter for the Displaced Population. • Reduce Hazards to the Population. • Conduct Mass Fatality Operations. Relief: E+14 Days to E+60 Days • Provide Interim Housing for the Displaced Population. • Restore Infrastructure and Public Services. • Establish Temporary Transportation Capabilities. 1.3.4 Declaration of an Operational Emergency DOE defines an Operational Emergency as either: • A major unplanned or abnormal incident or condition that involves or affects DOE facilities and activities by causing or having the potential to cause serious health and safety or environmental impacts and requires additional resources to supplement the planned initial response; or • Any accident/incident involving an offsite DOE shipment containing hazardous materials that causes the initial responders to initiate protective actions at locations beyond the immediate/affected area. DOE sites/facilities must declare an Operational Emergency when incidents occur that represent a significant degradation in the level of safety at a site/facility resulting in potential health and safety hazards to workers or the public. An Operational Emergency involving hazardous materials release may be classified as an Alert, Site Area Emergency, or General Emergency by the EMDO if he/she determines that the release event poses a real or potential threat to safety, health, or the environment. Additionally, in a security event, the Security Duty Officer (SDO) is required to inform the EMDO or the LEDO that an Operational Emergency should be declared based on Safeguards & Security and/or law enforcement issues. See Section 5 of this Emergency Plan for specifics on Operational Emergency categorization and classification. 1.3.5 Reentry The ED, Battalion Chief, and/or Security/IC will determine when an emergency scene is stable and reentry to specific buildings or areas can occur by non-First Responders. The appropriate ES&H Team provides technical evaluation support. See Section 8 of this Emergency Plan for specifics on protective actions and reentry.
