LLNL Emergency Management Plan (EPlan) Rev 27 January 2022 31 2.2.3 Areas of Responsibility for Command and Control • Classification authority resides with the EMDO prior to EOC being declared operational. • The EMDO is responsible for ERO activation at the appropriate level (See Tables 2.1 and 2.3). The LEDO also has the authority to activate the ERO (EOC and DOCs) for emergency events that are not Operational Emergencies, but where the organizational structure of the ERO and the resources it has increases the effectiveness of LLNL's response to the event. • Emergency response efforts and resources committed to the incident scene are under the control of the ACFD Battalion Chief or LLNL Security IC. • Emergency response efforts and resources used within the LLNL site boundary, but outside the incident scene, are under the control of the ED. • The ACFD Battalion Chief directing the response to an emergency in or around LLNL manages all firefighting and emergency response resources under his/her control in accordance with the FIRESCOPE Program as mandated by California Health and Safety Code (Section 13071 - 13070). This may include resources from adjacent jurisdictions such as LPFD or South San Joaquin County Fire Authority. • Committing DOE/NNSA resources may be requested through the NNSA/LFO Emergency Manager. 2.2.4 LLNS and NNSA/LFO EOC Authorities When the EOC is operational and it is deemed necessary, the NNSA/LFO Emergency Manager monitors LLNL's overall response, provides support to the LLNL Emergency Management Team, and assists with response and recovery-related issue resolution. The NNSA/LFO Emergency Manager will consult with the LLNL ED on NNSA/LFO concerns or issues related to LLNL's management of the response and its associated recovery. The LLNL ED maintains overall managerial command and control of LLNL's response and EOC operations, unless responsibility for this management is formally requested by the NNSA/LFO Emergency Manager in accordance with Contract 44, Clause H-2, Performance Direction, and provisions of DOE Order 151.1D, Appendix A, Responsibilities, 10.o. Such a transfer will be completed in an orderly and formal manner, and all ERO personnel will be informed of the transfer. LLNL staff will facilitate this transfer and continue to support the response and recovery actions in accordance with the directions of LLNL management. 2.3 Emergency Management Operations and Personnel The LLNL ERO is divided into two categories: Field-Level First Responder and Emergency Management through the EOC. Non-uniformed ERO staff are annually issued identification cards by the EMD. These cards are signed by the Department Head of EMD and authorize access to LLNL emergency operations and support facilities (i.e., EOC, DOCs).
