IV. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS <br /> A. General <br /> ESF#3 is under the leadership of the Indian River County Public Works and <br /> Engineering Department and will coordinate public works activities with the <br /> supporting agencies involved in emergency response and recovery. Upon <br /> request, a representative from that department will be available to respond to <br /> public works related requests submitted by the IRCDEM. When partial <br /> activation of the EOC is implemented, and at the DEMs request, this person <br /> will staff the ESF#3 work station, identify which support agencies for ESF#3 <br /> are needed, and take steps to assure that support agencies are activated or <br /> on alert as appropriate. <br /> ESF #3 will respond to local requests for public works and engineering <br /> assistance. It is anticipated that these requests will concern emergency <br /> access routes. <br /> B. Organization <br /> The Indian River County Public Works and Engineering Department(as the <br /> ESF #3 primary agency), and ESF #3 support agencies will provide, as <br /> requested through the EOC, skilled personnel, engineers, construction <br /> workers, equipment operators, etc., with construction equipment and <br /> materials. Upon activation, an ESF #3 representative will notify those <br /> department personnel and support agencies to provide emergency support. <br /> C. Notification <br /> The IRCDEM will provide notification for each ESFs primary agency. A <br /> representative from the primary agency will in turn notify each support <br /> agency and/or volunteer agency, as required. <br /> D. Response Actions <br /> 1. Initial Actions <br /> a. Inventories of available vehicles, personnel and materials will <br /> be verified and provided to ESF#5 (Planning and Information). <br /> b.
