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