Natural Disaster Resilience Program The Natural Disaster Resilience Program (NDRP) is a national initiative in partnership with state governments aimed at addressing natural disaster risk priorities. The focus of NDRP is to reduce Western Australian communities vulnerability to natural hazards by supporting local governments and other stakeholders to build resilience by:

- Reducing their risk from the impact of disasters

Page 23: Local Emergency Management Arrangements · 2012-03-29 · 2 City of Melville Emergency Management Arrangements These arrangements have been produced and issued under the authority

23  

- Achieving appropriate emergency management capabilities and capacities, consistent with the States risk profile

- Providing support for emergency service volunteers

- Partnerships with business and community groups to achieve these

outcomes. Western Australia Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements Federal and State governments provide a range of relief measures to assist communities severely affected by an eligible natural disaster event such as a bushfire, cyclone, earthquake flood, meteorite strike, storm, storm surge, tornado or tsunami. Relief and recovery assistance can only be considered once a proclamation has been declared under the Western Australian Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements (WANDRRA). Before any WANDRRA relief or recovery measures can be accessed, an event must be assessed as an eligible natural disaster, in accordance with the criteria specified under the WANDRRA. The WANDRRA criteria for the activation of assistance measures for an eligible disaster are as follows: 1. Must be an eligible event; and 2. The anticipated cost to the State of eligible measures must exceed the small disaster criterion, being the amount of $240,000 1.13 Roles and Responsibilities Local Emergency Coordinator The local emergency coordinator for a local government district has the following functions [s. 37(4) of the Act]: a. to provide advice and support to the LEMC for the district in the development

community. The community survey was sent out to dwellings and businesses within the local government area. A total of 4,400 surveys were circulated with a return of 924 completed surveys representing 21% of the total.

The survey also asked the respondents to assess the impact the source of risk might have on the elements at risk within the community.

These arrangements are based on the premise that the HMA responsible for the above risks will develop, test and review appropriate emergency management plans for their hazard. It is recognised that the HMA’s and Combat agencies may require City of Melville resources and assistance in emergency management. The City of Melville is committed to providing assistance/support if the required resources are available through the Incident Support Group when and if formed. 3.2 Activation of Local Arrangements The Hazard Management Agency or the Local Emergency Coordinator (LEC) in consultation with the Hazard Management Agency is responsible for the implementation of the Arrangements and for activating the required organisations in accordance with these Arrangements.

Page 29: Local Emergency Management Arrangements · 2012-03-29 · 2 City of Melville Emergency Management Arrangements These arrangements have been produced and issued under the authority

29  

Incident Support Group (ISG) The ISG is convened by the HMA or the Local Emergency Coordinator in consultation with the HMA to assist in the overall coordination of services and information during a major incident. Coordination is achieved through clear identification of priorities by agencies sharing information and resources. Role The role of the ISG is to provide support to the incident management team. The ISG is a group of people represented by the different agencies who may have involvement in the incident. Triggers for the activation of an ISG The activation of an ISG should be considered when the following occur; a. For a level 2 incident (Multi agency response-SEMC Policy 4.1); b. Requirement for possible or actual evacuation;

c. A need to coordinate warning/information to community during a multi agency

event;

d. Where there is a perceived need relative to an impending hazard impact. (Flood, fire, storm surge); Multi agency response where there is a need for collaborative decision making and the coordination of resources/information; and

e. Where there is a need for regional support beyond that of a single agency. Membership of an ISG The Incident Support Group is made up of agencies /representatives that provide support to the Hazard Management Agency. As a general rule, the Recovery Coordinator should be a member of the ISG from the onset, to ensure consistency of information flow and transition into recovery. The representation on this group may change regularly depending upon the nature of the incident, agencies involved and the consequences caused by the emergency. Agencies supplying staff for the ISG must ensure that the representative(s) have the authority to commit resources and/or direct tasks.

30  

Frequency of Meetings Frequency of meetings will be determined by the Incident Controller and will generally depend on the nature and complexity of the incident. As a minimum, there should be at least one meeting per incident. Coordination is achieved through clear identification of priorities by agencies sharing information and resources. Emergency Coordination Centre Information The Emergency Coordination Centre (ECC) is where the Incident Support Group meets during an emergency and provides a focal point for a coordinated approach. The following table identifies suitable ECCs within the District.

Media Management and Public Information. Communities threatened or impacted by emergencies have an urgent and vital need for information and direction. Such communities require adequate, timely information and instructions in order to be aware of the emergency and to take appropriate actions to safeguard life and property. The provision of this information is the responsibility of the HMA. It is likely that individual agencies will want to issue media releases for their areas of responsibility (eg Water Corporation on water issues, Western Power on power issues, etc) however the release times, issues identified and content shall be coordinated through the ISG to avoid conflicting messages being given to the public. (refer Public Information-Local Recovery Arrangements-Part 4) 3.3 Public Warning Systems During times of an emergency one of the most critical components of managing an incident is getting information out to the public in a timely and efficient manner. This section highlights local communication strategies. Local Systems Website- www.melvillecity.com.au Crisis Communications Process Map FESA Public Info Line ABC Radio State Alert System Public Meetings

32  

EVACUATION 3.4.1 Evacuation Evacuation is a risk management strategy which may be implemented, in the event of cyclones, flooding and bush fires. The decision to evacuate will be based on an assessment of the nature and extent of the hazard, the anticipated speed of onset, the number and category of people to be evacuated, evacuation priorities and the availability of resources. Decision making should focus on ensuring the safety and on-going welfare needs of those being evacuated.

The HMA will make decisions on evacuation and ensure that community members have appropriate information to make an informed decision as to whether to stay or go during an emergency. 3.4.1 Evacuation Planning Principles The decision to evacuate will only be made by a Hazard Management Agency or an authorised officer when the members of the community at risk do not have the capability to make an informed decision or when it is evident that loss of life or injury is imminent. State Emergency Management Policy 4.7 ‘Community Evacuation’ should be consulted when planning evacuation. Management

The responsibility for managing evacuation rests with the HMA. The HMA is responsible for planning, communicating and effecting the evacuation and ensuring the welfare of the evacuees is maintained. The HMA is also responsible for ensuring the safe return of evacuees. These aspects also incorporate the financial costs associated with the evacuation unless prior arrangements have been made. In most cases the WA Police may be the ‘combat agency’ for carrying out the evacuation and they may use the assistance of other agencies such as the SES. Whenever evacuation is being considered the Department for Child Protection must be consulted during the planning stages. This is because DCP have responsibility under State Arrangements to maintain the welfare of evacuees under Westplan Welfare. Special Needs Groups This section should list an ‘at risk’ groups within your community. Examples may be schools, nursing homes, child care centres. The purpose behind this is so that a HMA planning evacuation will be able to identify locations that require special attention or resources.

WELFARE

3.5 Welfare

The Department for Child Protection (DCP) has the role of managing welfare. DCP has developed a local Welfare Emergency Management Plan for the Fremantle District. Local Welfare Coordinator District Emergency Services Officer - Contact 9223 1111 or 1800 199 008. Local Welfare Liaison Officer Local Government should appoint a liaison officer. This role will provide assistance to the Local Welfare Centre, including the management of emergency evacuation centres such as building opening, closing, security and maintenance. It is important to identify the initial arrangements for welfare to occur. District Emergency Services Officer The Department for Child Protection shall appoint a District Emergency Services Officer (DESO) to prepare local welfare plans. The DESO for the City of Melville is contained in the Contacts Register. 3.6 State & National Registration & Enquiry When a large scale emergency occurs and people are evacuated or become displaced, one of the areas the Department for Child Protection (DCP) has responsibility for is recording who has been displaced and placing the information onto a State or National Register. This primarily allows friends or relatives to locate each other but also has many further applications. Because of the nature of the work involved DCP have reciprocal arrangements with the Red Cross to assist with the registration process.

Glossary

Terminology used throughout this Guideline is outlined in page 9 of this document. In the event that the meaning is not presented, terminology shall have the meaning as described in s. 3 of the Emergency Management Act, 2005.

Introduction

Authority

This Local Recovery Plan has been prepared in accordance with Section 41 of the Emergency Management Act 2005. It has been endorsed by the City of Melville Local Emergency Management Committee and the City of Melville Council. It has been tabled for information and comment with the District Emergency Management Committee.

1.1 PURPOSE

The aim of this document is to detail the community’s recovery management plans that may be implemented following an emergency to restore, as quickly as possible, the quality of life in an affected community, so that they can continue to function as part of the wider community.

1.2 OBJECTIVES

The objective of this Recovery Plan is to:

- Ensure effective and coordinated management of recovery; - Identify a Local Recovery Coordinator; - Identify the roles and responsibilities of public authorities and other persons

and promote liaison between stakeholders; - Inform and involve the local community in recovery management; - Ensure effective two-way communication and information management; and - Comply with State Emergency Management legislation.

1.3 SCOPE

Page 37: Local Emergency Management Arrangements · 2012-03-29 · 2 City of Melville Emergency Management Arrangements These arrangements have been produced and issued under the authority

37  

The scope of this Recovery plan is limited to the boundaries of the City of Melville government area. It details the recovery arrangements for the community and does not in any way detail how individual organisations will conduct recovery activities within their core business area.

This Plan is a support to the City of Melville ‘Local Emergency Management Arrangements’.

This plan is a guide to recovery management at a local level. An emergency situation may arise which requires coordination at State level.

2.2 RESOURCES

The Local Recovery Coordinator is responsible for determining the resources required for recovery activities in consultation with the HMA and support organisations.

The Local Recovery Coordinator is responsible for coordinating the effective provision of resources and services to avoid duplication of effort.

Local government and community resources should be identified and listed in an Asset Directory (include as an appendix). Resources may include:

Local government staff and equipment

Page 38: Local Emergency Management Arrangements · 2012-03-29 · 2 City of Melville Emergency Management Arrangements These arrangements have been produced and issued under the authority

38  

Lifeline services (gas, energy, water etc.) Interpreters Local services (electrical and plumbing services, vehicles and

equipment, arborists etc.) Catering Hazard Management Agencies and resources (Fire Rescue Service,

Department of Environment and Conservation, Bush Fire Service, Emergency Service, Police etc.)

Schools Medical Accommodation Fuel Animal welfare (veterinarians)

2.3 FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS

Appeals and Donations

Where possible, donations of goods and services should be discouraged as they are difficult to manage. Donations of cash are more practicable to manage and provide the opportunity to utilise local services which in turn assists with the recovery of local business.

Donations of Cash: The Local Recovery Committee will encourage the use of the Lord Mayor’s Distress Relief Fund for people wanting to make cash donations, although if deemed necessary will open a separate account specifically for cash donations. (Ref SEMP OP 19).

Donations of Service and Labour: Any donations of services or labour to assist with the recovery from an emergency should be administered by the affected Local Government or if established the Local Recovery Committee. Where the State Government level recovery coordination arrangements are activated under WESTPLAN – RECOVERY COORDINATION the Recovery Services Sub Committee may arrange the administration of donations of services and labour. The Australian Red Cross has also assisted with administration of services and labour in previous events.

Donations of Goods: The donations of goods to assist victims to recover from an emergency may be arranged by non government organisations. The distribution of the donated goods shall be undertaken by the organisations concerned.

2.5 CONTACTS REGISTER

A register detailing the contact details for all agencies/ groups/ organisations with responsibilities under the Plan should be attached as an annex.

Refer to Part 5 for contacts list.

ACTIVATION

3.1 TRANSITION FROM RESPONSE

Recovery starts while response activities are still in progress and key decisions taken during the response phase are likely to directly influence and shape recovery.

The LRC should be called together as soon as possible for a briefing of the emergency incident even in the response stage to detail the extent of contingencies to allow for smooth transition from response to recovery.

The committee will;

Align response and recovery priorities Connect with key agencies Understand key impacts and tasks Identify recovery requirements and priorities as early as possible. Recovery Coordinator must be included in Incident Support Group

meetings from the onset.

Transition from response to recovery shall be formalised by completing of the ‘Response to Recovery Transition Handover’ form (see Appendix 4).

3.2 ACTIVATION

The decision to activate the plan should be made by the Mayor/ CEO on the advice of the Local Recovery Coordinator. An assessment of the assistance needed for recovery will be made by:

The Incident Support Group; Consultation between the HMA, Incident Manager and the Local

Emergency Coordinator; or

Page 43: Local Emergency Management Arrangements · 2012-03-29 · 2 City of Melville Emergency Management Arrangements These arrangements have been produced and issued under the authority

43  

The local government.

Once the plan has been authorised for activation, the Local Recovery Coordinator is responsible for implementing the recovery processes of the plan.

State Emergency Management Policy 4.4 State Recovery Coordination provides;

The Hazard Management Agency (HMA) with responsibility for the response to an emergency must initiate recovery activity during the response to that emergency.

The HMA will then liaise with the emergency affected local government to prepare for a transition from response to recovery and at an agreed point will transfer responsibility for the recovery activity to that local government. The “handover” arrangements should be documented.

Where an emergency is assessed by the HMA as being of sufficient

magnitude to require State level recovery coordination, the HMA with the agreement of the affected local government/s, will discuss the transfer of the coordination responsibility to the State with the Chair, Recovery Services Sub-committee. (RSS-State level committee).

3.3 IMPACT ASSESSMENT AND OPERATIONAL RECOVERY PLANNING

It is essential that an assessment of the recovery and restoration requirements be conducted as soon as possible after the impact of the event. Impact assessment should not interfere with response operations. Access to the affected area may be restricted by the HMA until it is determined safe to enter.

The following sources may assist in the collection of impact assessment data:

HMA; Welfare agencies- to identify persons in need of immediate assistance; Local government building inspectors and engineers; Insurance assessors; and Business associations- for example the local chamber of commerce.

Page 44: Local Emergency Management Arrangements · 2012-03-29 · 2 City of Melville Emergency Management Arrangements These arrangements have been produced and issued under the authority

44  

Following a major emergency, where substantial recovery planning is required, an operational recovery plan should be prepared by the LRC. The operational recovery plan should describe the extent of damage and detail arrangements for restoration and reconstruction of the affected community.

3.4 WELFARE AND HEALTH SERVICES

Relief activities are directed at meeting the immediate food, shelter and security requirements of those affected by the incident or disaster. Recovery activities are directed at providing the information, resources, personal support and community infrastructure necessary for individuals and communities to achieve self-sufficiency and sustain independent functioning. In some instances, these activities may continue for months or even years.

The following documents may assist the LRC in welfare and health recovery planning:

Local Welfare Support Plan Local health Support Plan WESTPLAN- Health WESTPLAN - Welfare

3.5 PUBLIC INFORMATION

Provision of public information must be deliberate, planned and sustained. Effective information management is key to rebuilding community confidence. Only with the return of confidence will the community invest in its own recovery.

In the response phase public information primarily informs and reassures. In the recovery phase it is the mechanism by which the affected community and the wider public are encouraged to participate in the process of restoration and rehabilitation.

Public Information Continuity

Page 45: Local Emergency Management Arrangements · 2012-03-29 · 2 City of Melville Emergency Management Arrangements These arrangements have been produced and issued under the authority

45  

The public information function should continue after the emergency response is over, lives are no longer at risk, and the state of emergency is over. The focus might change but the purpose of maintaining the flow of information remains

Points to consider;

Brief the organisations spokespeople (Mayor and the CEO) on how to deal with the media

The organisations Crisis Communications Process Plan Manage public information during the transition from response to recovery

when handover completed from HMA Identify priority information needs/ key messages Develop an issue specific communication strategy Coordinate public information through:

- joint information centres

- spokesperson/s

- identifying and adopting key message priorities

- using a single publicised website for all press releases

Develop processes for:

- media liaison and management (all forms e.g. print, and electronic)

- briefing politicians

- alternative means of communication e.g. public meetings, mailbox fliers, advertising

- communicating with community groups

- meeting specialist needs

- formatting press releases

- developing and maintaining a website

- ensuring feedback is sought, integrated and acknowledged

Monitor print and broadcast media, and counter misinformation.

3.6 RECOVERY COORDINATION CENTRE

A Recovery Coordination Centre should be established if extensive recovery activities are to be undertaken. The purpose of the Recovery Coordination Centre is to bring together all agencies involved in the recovery process to ensure effective communication and coordination of resources, information and tasks.

The LRC is responsible for the Activation and coordination of the Recovery Coordination Centre.

When identifying priorities consideration should be given to the risk evaluation criteria developed during the ERM process. (Risk Evaluation – community values-Refer appendix 9)

3.9 STATE LEVEL ASSISTANCE

State level assistance to community recovery will normally be provided by a range of State government agencies through direct representation on the LRC.

Where the level of recovery is beyond the capacity of the local community, State level support shall be requested as outlined in State Recovery Coordination Plan - WESTPLAN Recovery Coordination.

If an incident is on a large enough scale and recovery appears to be beyond the capability of the Local Government, the HMA in consultation with local

Page 48: Local Emergency Management Arrangements · 2012-03-29 · 2 City of Melville Emergency Management Arrangements These arrangements have been produced and issued under the authority

48  

government may request the Department of Premier & Cabinet to assume overall recovery management for the incident.

3.10 STAND DOWN

The Local Recovery Coordinator will stand down participants and programs when they are no longer required.

3.11 DEBRIEFING/POST OPERATIONS REPORT

The LRC will arrange for the debriefing of all participants and organisations as soon as possible after stand down and the preparation and tabling of a report to the LEMC for review and update of the Local Recovery Plan. A copy of the report will also be forwarded to the HMA, the Chairman of the SEMC Recovery Services sub-committee and the DEMC.

Annex 6 - Action Recovery Plan Template

Action Recovery Plan

The City of Melville has prepared local recovery arrangements that encompass all of the elements of WESTPLAN - RECOVERY COORDINATION as a general recovery management plan, however following a major emergency where substantial damage has occurred to residential, commercial and government buildings and other community infrastructure and where significant reconstruction and restoration is required, an Operational Recovery Plan should be prepared by the LRC.

The Operational Recovery Plan should provide a full description of the extent of the damage, both physical and human and detail plans for restoration and reconstruction of the affected community.

Each Operational Recovery Plan will be different depending upon the nature of the emergency and the severity of the destruction and disruption however, the following is a guide to those elements that should be included, although it is not intended to be prescriptive
