INTRODUCTION/TRANSITION FROM RESPONSE TO RECOVERY The Florida Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) and Indian River County's CEMP is constructed in Emergency Support Functions consistent with the Florida Response Plan. All ESFs within the CEMP are considered to be all- hazard and to provide guidance for the mitigation, preparedness, response to and recovery from any disaster to which the State or Indian River County is vulnerable. The recovery section establishes support for local government efforts to restore essential public and social services following a disaster. Much of this support involves the coordination and administration of state and federal disaster assistance. As Response activities begin to taper off and non-life safety issues can begin to be addressed, the operational focus begins to shift from Response to Recovery. It is critical that the transition from Response to Recovery be smooth and as seamless as possible. When the volume of Response oriented requests has or is in the process of decreasing and the volume of Recovery oriented requests have or are in the process of becoming the primary focus of EOC Operations, the Emergency Management Director will be responsible for coordinating all short-term recovery efforts. This coordination will include activating and managing the emergency operations center activities for recovery, providing liaison activities with the Disaster Field Office and state recovery staff, and coordinating recovery activities with the municipalities and the State. This will be accomplished by assuring that all municipal leaders are invited to participate in all meetings related to the recovery process. The County recovery activities would be much the same for a declared disaster and undeclared disaster. II. GENERAL A. This Annex provides a cohesive and consistent foundation for successful short-term recovery of the County and is linked to the Indian River County Post Disaster Redevelopment Plan. The Indian River County Emergency Management Division will be responsible for coordinating recovery efforts for the county, including the identification of financial assistance program availability (see Attachment 18). B. In addition to all county department heads and the support functions of the designated ESFs, the following agencies may have support roles and be involved in the recovery activities for the county: 1. Florida Department of Labor & Employment Security Provides assistance and information to disaster victims about unemployment compensation and disaster unemployment assistance. Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 1 2. U.S. Farmers Home Administration and Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Provides assistance and information to disaster victims about low interest disaster loans that cover agricultural and farm losses. 3. U.S. Small Business Administration Provides assistance and information to disaster victims about low interest disaster loans for homeowners and business owners. 4. American Red Cross Provides assistance and information about assistance available through the American Red Cross. 5. Salvation Army Provides assistance and information about assistance available through the Salvation Army. 6. Crisis Counselors Provide professional counseling services to help relieve mental health problems caused or aggravated by the disaster event. 7. Florida Department of Insurance Provides assistance and information about resolving insurance claims and problems. 8. Florida Department of Health Provides assistance and information on the availability of regular and emergency food stamps and individual/family grants. 9. National Flood Insurance Program Assists in determining whether damaged properties are located within designated flood plains. 10. Temporary Housing Staff(FEMA) Provides assistance and information about the availability of rental and mortgage assistance, and other housing programs. 11. Internal Revenue Service Provides assistance and information about how the disaster will affect their taxes. Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 2 12. Indian River County Geographic Information Systems '(GIS) Department - Will serve as technical specialists for mapping needs and will coordinate the damage assessment for the county. C. The concept of operations that will be used to administer recovery activities is detailed in Annex III (RIAT SOP) attached to this document. D. The roles, duties, and responsibilities of the lead and support agencies are described in Annex I(Response Functions) attached to this document. 111 RECOVERY FUNCTIONS (More specific information can be found in Annex III Damage Assessment, included with this document). A. Damage Assessment Functions 1. Following any major or catastrophic disaster, a rapid assessment of local damage and victim needs is essential in determining the critical resources needed to support disaster victims.The estimates received during the pre-event recovery stage and the immediate recovery phase will determine the amount of aid received by state and federal agencies. The Indian 'River County GIS Department (as support agency for ESF #5) is 'responsible for coordinating initial damage assessments with the Indian River County Property Appraiser's office to calculate damage assessment for the entire county. It is paramount that each of the municipalities coordinate damage assessment with the EOC in order to provide state and federal agencies with accurate disaster event damage assessments. A current inventory of personnel, data, equipment and vehicles that will be used for damage assessment is kept on file in the Property Appraiser's office. 2. In order to become eligible for Federal Disaster Relief funding, Indian River County must perform a Preliminary Damage Assessment (PDA). A PDA is the process used to determine the magnitude and impact of the state's damage. A FEMA/state team will usually visit local applicants and view their damage to determine the scope of damage and estimate repair costs. The results of this survey are used to help determine the need for Federal involvement in the recovery process. The Emergency Management Director, or his designee, will be the initial point of coordination between county/state/federal agencies and will oversee all damage assessment reports. Using the Damage Assessment Team Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 3 Assignment Standard Operating Guide, the Indian River GIS Departmentwill provide a briefing to the PDA teams at the EOC. The briefing will include a 'review of their roles and responsibilities, assessment criteria, overall PDA process and geographic team assignments. Teams will be issued a tablet with damage assessment software, maps and forms, PDA reports will be submitted (using the Field Team Preliminary Observation of Damage form attached to this Annex and identified as Attachment 2) by the following agencies, which have support roles in the Initial Damage Assessment: a. ESF #1 (Transportation): Assessment of School Board assets; b. ESF #3 (Public Works and Engineering): Assessment of infrastructure; C. ESF #4 and #9 (Fire Fighting and Search & Rescue): Assessment of public safety. d. ESF #5 (Information and Planning): Assessment of all residential and business property; e. ESF #6 (Mass Care): Assessment of all residential and business property; f. ESF #8 (Public Health): Assessment of health care agencies. g. ESF #13 (Military Support— Civil Air Patrol): Assessment via aerial reconnaissance. h. ESF #16 (Law Enforcement): Assessment of public safety. i. ESF #18 (Business & Industry): Assessment of damage to local business. The assumption is that all of the above listed support agencies will generally have the first access to the county prior to the issuance of an All-Clear to the residents. The Emergency Management Division will work closely with the Indian River 'County GIS Department and Property Appraiser's office to assure accurate damage assessment information. Any structures Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 4 suspected of being uninhabitable will immediately be reported to the EOC, who will then arrange for an appraisal from the proper authority for that jurisdiction. Damage assessment reports will be filed by the Emergency Management Division only. Any other damage reports filed with state and federal agencies will not be recognized without the approval of the Emergency Management Director, and/or his designee. The Emergency Management Division will file all damage reports with the SEOC, who in turn will file these reports with the Federal Emergency Management Agency in order to obtain a Presidential Declaration of Disaster, if required. 3. Indian River County Emergency Management will be the lead for damage assessment. GeoCove software maintenance, training and use will be conducted by the Indian River County GIS Department and used for damage assessment; training will be offeredat least annually. Methods used in damage assessment reporting will include the following: a. Aerial Reconnaissance-conducted when there may be no other way to enter the area; when the damaged area is so large that this method provides the best opportunity to identify specific areas to be surveyed by DATs; or when the damage is so extensive and catastrophic that the need for detailed damage assessment may not be considered. ESF#1 (Transportation)and ESF#13 (Military Support) may provide aerial support. b. Drive-Through Reconnaissance- used to assess a large area in a relatively short period of time. It may be utilized when areas are inaccessible on foot and a general overview of the area is all that may be required. c. Walk-Through Inspections - the most effective, thorough and time-consuming method for damage assessment. This method is most often used when the assessment needs to be very detailed and specific and will determine post-disaster habitability. d. Miscellaneous Sources - Search and Rescue team reports, efforts of local insurance agencies, private business reporting and pre-event damage assessment reports. 4. The damage assessment teams will be contacted with instructions to report to work in accordance with their established procedures and be Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 5 pre-staged at the county administration building awaiting instructions for beginning the damage assessment process. The teams will be gathered in the EOC and briefed by the Indian River County GIS Department just prior to being dispatched to the field when conditions are appropriate. The teams have been trained on their geographic assignments, mapping, assessment criteria and report format and process. 5. The economic injury to a region impacted by a disaster is difficult to measure in finite terms within a reasonably short period of time. The losses are widespread over a large population and are cumulative. They can only be estimated. The following are types of economic impacts that may affect people and are examples that may be studied in the aftermath of a disaster: • Business interruption • Loss of customers • Loss of return on capital investments • Loss of profits on finished goods • Loss of investor's confidence • Loss of credit standing • Loss of trained personnel who transfer jobs • Excessive replacement cost due to overtime • Cost of replacement of depreciated buildings • Continuance of fixed charges during shutdown • Cost of hiring temporary quarters • Loss of valuable records • Loss of value of past advertising • Loss of rent from tenant • Temporary loss of income 6. As assessment of public needs will be determined based on the RIAT which identifies the areas requiring priorities and damage to infrastructures upon which the general public is dependent upon for survival. B. Disaster Field Offices/Disaster Recovery Centers 1. When a federal disaster declaration is issued in response to an incident, key federal and state recovery officials will establish and co- locate at a Joint Field Office (JFO). The Emergency Management Director/Coordinator will lead responsibility for coordination with the state, pre- and post- event, on the establishment of a Disaster Recovery Center. This request with the State will occur via telephone, Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 6 e-mail, or through EMconstellation. The sites have been pre- determined and can be found in Attachment 6 of this document. The DFO serves as the hub for the coordination of federal and state disaster assistance, as well as a focal point for associated recovery and reconstruction issues. If necessary, the Indian River County, Emergency Management Division, will provide a liaison at the JFO and also establish a liaison with the state recovery staff. 2. Public Information ESF #14 will be responsible for the coordination and release of information to the media and the public. Locations of DRCs will be released on a daily basis. Should any additional information be required by DRCs, ESF#5 (Information &Planning)would provide the necessary advisories. Regularly scheduled press conferences will be established during an event. The information to be disseminated may include, but not be limited to, the following: a. Identification of vulnerable areas for each hazard; b. Pre-disaster measures to alleviate loss; C. Preparedness tips; d. Response information, especially evacuation and sheltering; e. Recovery information, where to go and who to contact for assistance; and f. Information on what to bring to a shelter. For more detailed information, refer to the procedures established for ESF #14 in Annex 1, Page ESF #14-1. Additionally, see Annex VII (Public Outreach, Notification, and Crisis Communication Strategy). 3. Once a Presidential Declaration of Disaster is established, FEMA will open Disaster Recovery Centers (DRC) throughout Indian River County. Eight potential DRC sites have been identified (a general location map is attached to this document and identified as Attachment 7). The purpose of these centers is to provide the public access to apply for federal assistance funding. The centers will provide residents and businesses with information on available programs and assist applicants with completion of the necessary forms/documentation. ESF#14 (Public Information)will be requested to make daily public announcements to inform residents and businesses on the essential documentation required to obtain assistance. This documentation includes, but is not limited to, the following: Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 7 • Driver's License or valid proof of identity • Deed/mortgage or other proof of property ownership • Insurance papers, including flood insurance • Employer and income verification The Emergency Management Director, or his designee, will be responsible for the overall coordination with the State, pre- and post- event, on establishment of a DRC (see Section IV- Human Services, of this annex, for more detailed information). Designated DRCs will serve as Disaster Application Centers (DAC's). Utilizing the recommended FEMA criteria, DRC locations have been established at eight geographical locations throughout the County to cover the needs of residents in the North, Central, South, East and West portions of the County (a general location map of all DRC sites is attached to this document and identified as Attachment 7). These areas will address those special populations and geographic areas, particularly the barrier island, which requires particular attention. The Emergency Management Director, or his designee,will determine which locations will be activated. State and Federal authorities will be provided with a list of locations once the sites have been inspected by preliminary damage assessment teams and found to be safe. Emergency Management staff will have a support role and be involved in the establishment of a DRC. They will receive instructions to report for work through the EOC. It is understood that all federal/state employees who staff a DRC will be self-sufficient. Any shortfalls in equipment and vehicles that will be used for disaster recovery centers will be addressed by ESF #7. Local resources and programs within the county that may be utilized as informational/referral services to support Disaster Recovery Center Operations are identified in the CEMP Basic Plan on Figure 6-2 located on pages 66 and 67. C. Logistical Strategy 1. Logistical Staging Areas (LSA) The fundamental purpose for utilizing a LSA is to supplement Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 8 resource deficiencies in responding to and recovering from a disaster. This includes the warehousing of various commodities and supplies needed to support the disaster victims. The LSA can also be used to support and stage disaster relief personnel and equipment. Four potential staging area sites have been identified (a general location map is attached to this document and identified as Attachment 9). These supplies will be distributed to areas identified as having the most need. See Annex 1 - Response Functions, ESF #7 (Resource Management), for more specific details. a. Concept of Operations: (1) The county EOC will request through the State EOC, assistance from the Florida National Guard (ESF #13) and other agencies (i.e., Florida Division of Forestry) as needed to establish and support a LSA. (2) When the LSA is declared operational, resource delivery to the LSA will begin immediately. (3) All resource requests will be made by the county EOC. (4) The LSAs primary mission is to supplement resource shortages throughout the impacted area. Therefore, once the community is determined by the EOC to be restored to a self-sufficient state, the LSA operation will be demobilized. (5) Security recommendations will be made by ESF #16. b. Locations of county Logistical Staging Areas: (1) Primary Location: City of V.B. Regional Airport (materials & supplies) 3400 Cherokee Drive Vero Beach, FL (2) Indian River County Fairgrounds (materials &supplies) 7900 58th Avenue Wabasso, FL (3) Hobart Park (volunteer personnel) 5350 77th Street Wabasso, FL Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 9 (4) Barber Street Sports Complex (materials & supplies) 1115 Barber Street Sebastian, FL 2. Points of Distribution (POD) The purpose of PODs are for counties to establish initial points where the general public will obtain life sustaining emergency relief supplies until such time as power is restored, and traditional facilities such as comfort stations, fixed and mobile feeding sites and routes, and relief social service programs are in place. These sites will be used for the purpose of distributing bulk emergency relief supplies such as water, ice, food and tarps within the first 24- 96 hours after an event. a. POD Management PODs will be evaluated throughout the operation. As power is restored in the community, roads opened, stores reopening, and social services established, the quantity, location or type of POD would need to be adjusted. Some sites will close, and others may be consolidated or right- sized. b. Types of PODs (1) Type I Type 1 PON are the largest sites and require the most assets. It will also require good entrance and egress with supporting arteries. A Type I distribution site serves approximately 20,000 persons per day with 12 loading points, or 560 vehicles per hour. (2) Type 11 Type 11 PON are moderately sized. A Type II distribution site serves approximately 10,000 persons per day with 6 loading points, or 280 vehicles per hour. (3) Type 111 Type III PODs are the smallest sites and require the least amount of assets. A Type 111 distribution site Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 10 serves approximately 5,000 persons per day with 3 loading points, or 140 vehicles per hour. C. Key Planning Factors (1) Ice — 1 truckload (40,000 lbs, 8 lbs/per) serves 5,000 people. (2) Water— 1 truckload (18,000 liters, 3+liters/per) serves 5,000 people. (3) MREs — 1 truckload (21,744 ea., 2 ea/per) serves 10,000 people. (4) Tarps — 1 truckload (4,400 ea.) serves 4,000 families with roof damage. (5) 1 care represents 1 family, or 3 people. (6) Each car is provided the following: 1. 2 or 3 bags of ice 2. 1 case of water (9-12 liters) 3. 6 MREs 4. 1 tarp, if they state they have roof damage d. Concept of Operations: (1) The county EOC will request through the State EOC, assistance from the Florida National Guard (ESF #13) and other agencies (i.e., Florida Division of Forestry) as needed to establish and support the county PODs. (2) The county Human Resources Department may be tasked to provide additional staffing for each POD site in the county. Other sources of personnel may come from voluntary agencies, scouts, CERT members, etc. (3) Once resources arrive at a POD, they must be offloaded within four hours. This includes ice. It is imperative that trucks turn around to pick up additional resources. (4) PODs operate only during daylight hours for security and safety reasons. Once PODs are in full operations, deliveries to re-supply PODs will be made during the evening, and staged for morning distribution. Daytime deliveries will only be made in emergency situations, because this will stop all Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 11 distribution operations while trucks arrive and are off- loaded. (5) Security recommendations will be made by ESF #16. e. The locations for Points of Distribution (POD) sites in Indian River County can be found in Attachment 9 of this document. 3. Emergency Fuel Strategy a. Hurricanes and Their Impact on Fuel Supply (1) Supply Disruptions a. Shipping delays b. Impacts to supply terminals c. Impacts to receiving terminals d. Impacts to refineries e. Impacts to production (2) Increased Demand a. 5-6 days ahead of landfall b. Evacuation preparations c. Hoarding d. Generators/fuel cans e. Recovery activities b. Objective To ensure that Indian River County has an adequate and reliable fuel supply before and after hurricanes. C. ESF #1 (Transportation), ESF #3 (Public Works) and ESF #12 (Energy) Responsibilities: (1) Communicate with fuel stations along major transportation corridors and evacuation/re-entry routes to ascertain fuel supply levels. (2) Coordinate prompt utility restoration activities with power companies. (3) Coordinate with the EOC any anticipated fuel shortages so requests can be forwarded to the State EOC as soon as possible. (4) Take daily survey of fuel needs for emergency responders (Fire Rescue, law enforcement), school Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 12 district, hospitals and critical municipal services (power plant, WWTP and WTP). 4. Field Hospitals After a disaster event it is assumed that numerous injuries and fatalities will occur. During a catastrophic disaster event, Indian River Medical Center and Sebastian River Medical Center may experience extensive damage or be inaccessible to residents. Therefore, field hospitals must immediately be established to provide medical aid to the injured. A general location map of potential field hospital sites is attached to this document and identified as Attachment 8. 5. Fire Rescue stations may serve as valuable neighborhood referral centers. A list of stations is as follows: a. Fire Rescue Station #1 1500 Old Dixie Highway Vero Beach, FL b. Fire Rescue Station #2* 3301 Bridge Plaza Drive Vero Beach, FL C. Fire Rescue Station #3 2900 43rd Avenue Vero Beach, FL d. Fire Rescue Station #4 1500 9th Street SW Vero Beach, FL h. Fire Rescue Station #5 6580 U.S. Highway#1 Winter Beach, FL i. Fire Rescue Station #6* 101 South A1A Vero Beach, FL j. Fire Rescue Station #7 (Temporary location) 1891 90th Avenue Vero Beach, FL Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 13 k. Fire Rescue Station #8 1115 Barber Street Sebastian, FL I. Fire Rescue Station #9 13550 Roseland Road Sebastian, FL j. Fire Rescue Station #10 62 N. Broadway Street Fellsmere, FL k. Fire Rescue Station #11 2555 93,d Street Wabasso, FL I. Fire Rescue Station #12 3620 49th Street Vero Beach, FL j. Fire Rescue Station #13 4330 4th Street Vero Beach, FL These stations may be closed due to being located in a designated evacuation area. 6. Aviation Support Pre-designated landing zones for RIAT aviation support have been identified and coordinated with the State Division of Emergency Management and the Florida National Guard. See Annex III of the CEMP for more information. a. The primary landing zone is located at: Vero Beach Regional Airport Latitude 270 3933"/Longitude 080' 25' 08" b. The secondary landing zone is located at: Sebastian Airport Latitude 270 4877"/Longitude 080' 29' 74" D INFRASTRUCTURE/PUBLIC ASSISTANCE 1. The Emergency Management Director, or his designee, has the primary responsibility for coordinating all activities related to federal Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 14 reimbursement to local government and eligible private not-for-profit organizations, for their eligible costs incurred as a result of the event. The local emergency management office has a support role to the Public Assistance program (Steps in the Public Assistance process are outlined in Attachment #1) and will provide assistance as requested. 2. Once a disaster event triggers the declaration process, all potential applicants will attend an Applicant's Briefing. When the President issues a disaster declaration that includes Indian River County, the County will receive notice from the State directly. The State will ask Indian River County to coordinate an Applicant Briefing. The Applicant's Briefing is a meeting conducted by the State to inform prospective applicants of available assistance and eligibility requirements for obtaining federal assistance under the declared event. These meetings are conducted a few days after the event and all prospective applicants have a responsibility to attend. To obtain the maximum benefit from the information presented at the briefing the county administrator will direct all department directors, and/or their designees, to attend the Applicant's Briefing (i.e., Emergency Management Director, Budget Director, Risk Manager, Public Works Director, etc.).The Emergency Management Director will ensure that this information is transmitted to the Office of Management and Budget(OMB)for coordination of financial reimbursement with county agencies in compliance with Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act and FEMA regulation. Each County agency is responsible for the collection and documentation of reimbursement information, identification of public assistance projects, and submission to OMB for countywide consolidation and submission to FEMA. Each agency will also be responsible for tracking and maintaining the progress of their own projects. It is the responsibility of OMB to obtain additional staffing if needed to implement the public assistance program. 3. The Emergency Management Director, with the assistance of our public information officer(ESF#14), will transmit disaster declaration, recovery assistance information, and technical assistance resources to the municipalities, special taxing districts, and not-for profit organizations, (who perform essential governmental type services as described in FEMA regulations) via written correspondence, fax, conference calls, internet e-mail and web page, media outlets, and other communications mechanisms. Each municipality is responsible for identifying their public assistance projects. The recovery staff will coordinate with the State regarding implementing the appropriate programs authorized by the declaration. Potential eligible applicants will be notified of the date, time and location of the scheduled Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 15 applicants' briefing. The State has the responsibility to conduct the Applicant's Briefing. 4. The Request for Public Assistance (RPA){see copy of form attached to this Annex and identified as Attachment 3} forms are usually distributed and collected at the Applicant's Briefing. The RPA is the form a public or private non-profit organization uses to apply for disaster assistance. Using the RPA, potential applicants can provide information about their organizations, such as physical location, points of contact, and information regarding private non-profit status. The RPA must be submitted to the State Public Assistance Officer within 30 days of declaration or designation of an area. 5. Federal Public Assistance Coordinators (PACs) are assigned to applicants as the applicants submit the Request forms. Upon assignment, the PAC will set up and conduct a Kickoff Meeting with each applicant and their Applicant Liaison, the State's customer service representative, to assess individual applicant needs.The PAC is a customer service representative assigned to work with us from declaration to funding approval. The PAC will hold a Kickoff Meeting with the applicant to begin the process of documenting disaster recovery projects. The Kickoff Meeting is where damages will be discussed, needs assessed, and a plan of action put in place. The PAC will provide detailed instructions on what to do and how to do it. The county administrator will direct all department directors,and/or their designees, to attend the Kickoff meeting (i.e., Emergency Management Director, Budget Director, Risk Manager, Public Works Director, etc.). 6. The PAC will also assist the applicant in completing Project Worksheets (see copy of form attached to this Annex and identified as Attachment 4) for all projects. Project Worksheets will be approved after validation. The funding will be made available to the State. The State then disburses the funding to the applicant according to State regulations. Each municipality, special district or not-for-profit must have their own separate application with FEMA and will be required to file their own Project Worksheet. 7. If possible, the State will provide each applicant with an Applicant Liaison. The Liaison and the PAC must work closely to ensure that the applicant is provided with consistent, complete information about the Public Assistance Program and its processes. The PAC may be required to take a more active role in helping the applicant as the State may not be able to provide necessary resources. Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 16 8. The Emergency Management Director, or his designee, will work closely with ESF#14 (Public Information)as a support role to notify all eligible governments and private not-for-profit organizations of the availability of federal public assistance funds. He is also responsible for the implementation of the public assistance process, including project, grant and financial management. Notification may occur through written correspondence and telephone contacts, notices in local newspapers, and broadcasts on local radio and television stations. Potential eligible applicants will be notified of the date, time and location of the scheduled applicants' briefing. The State has the responsibility to conduct the Applicant's Briefing. 9. Most public assistance grants will not be processed until insurance coordination with the appropriate carrier has been completed. County and local government risk managers must ensure early turn around of insurance documents and documentation. The State Public Assistance Office will administer all public assistance grants, agreements and contracts. Administrative staff will be responsible for providing technical assistance to eligible applicants and sub-grantees and for maintaining and submitting all documents and paperwork necessary to obligate and disburse public assistance funds. This includes establishing a system for the processing of payments to sub- grantees and to FEMA; and establishing and maintaining accounting records for each payment draw down by the State and each payment to the sub-grantees. 10. A catastrophic emergency will require the expenditure of large sums of state and local funds. Finance operations will be carried out under compressed schedules and intense political pressures, which will require expeditious purchases without lessening the requirement for such financial management and accountability. The lead agencies represented on ESFs and/or otherwise conducting recovery activities will be responsible for organizing their headquarters to provide financial support for their operations. This includes support staff for: documentation of any financial transactions, accurate accounting, grants management, document tracking, creating correspondence, maintaining files and payroll accounting. These actions will be in accordance with their internal plans. In addition to maintaining appropriate documentation to support requests for reimbursement, agencies will be required to submit bills in a timely fashion, and closing out mission assignments. The approval to expend funds for response and recovery operations will be given by authorized officials from each agency and department. Each agency should designate a responsible official on Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 17 each ESF to ensure that actions taken and costs incurred are consistent with missions identified in the Plan. Each agency should maintain detailed records of the following types of costs, which may be incurred in providing requested assistance: • Wages (regular and overtime), travel, and per diem of permanent and temporary state agency personnel assigned solely to provide assistance; • Costs of work, materials, and services procured under contract to support implementation of recovery efforts; • Costs of materials, equipment and supplies (including transportation, maintenance, repair, etc.), from regular state agency stock; • Costs incurred which are paid from trust, revolving, or other funds, and whose reimbursement is required by law; and • Other costs incurred to provide assistance or otherwise facilitate recovery efforts, as directed by the Governor's Authorized Representative. Recognizing the fact that in the event of a catastrophic event, existing staff resources may be exhausted, temporary staff may be sought. Any requests for temporary staff will be submitted to the county Human Resources Director through the Emergency Management Director. The county has a disaster emergency employee policy (Resolution Number 91-55)whereas every county employee must be available to perform his/her duties during a disaster. If county employees are unable to perform at their own jobs, they will be used by emergency management in a disaster capacity. County staff will always be utilized before seeking outside sources. 11. Once structures, buildings and homes have been severely damaged, and/or had power cut off in impacted areas, power can not be restored until inspected by a certified electrician. Indian River County building department inspectors will notify the appropriate agencies of reinstatement of electrical service. All buildings damaged must be permitted for rebuilding or restoration and all new work must be up to current codes. If a building is more that 50% damaged, it will be brought up to current codes. Condemnation of severely damaged buildings and structures will be accomplished when they become a risk to the public. Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 18 12. Some permitting processes may be expedited after a hurricane or other disaster if Indian River County Commissioners declare an emergency and enact the county's emergency permitting procedures. This will depend on the extent of damage after the disaster and will conform to the policies set forth by Community Development. In general, post-hurricane permitting is streamlined to allow the replacement of existing structures with limited review. However, most construction is still subject to meeting updated building codes. Permitting of projects related to storm damage may be given priority over the processing of other work. 13. Potential applicants for the Public Assistance and Hazard Mitigation Programs have been pre-identified (a list is reviewed annually, maintained by emergency management staff and is stored in the EOC library). Those agencies will be notified, following a disaster, of their potential eligibility to apply for grant funds (via telephone and/or e- mail). To obtain maximum benefit from the information represented at the Applicant's Briefing, the county will invite representatives from: • All operational departments — i.e., public works, utilities, solid waste, law enforcement, fire rescue and administration (human resources, finance, purchasing, legal, and risk management) • Municipal governments — City of Fellsmere, Town of Indian River Shores, City of Sebastian, City of Vero Beach and Town of Orchid. • Other government entities — i.e., St. John's Water Management District and the School District of Indian River County, county constitutional officers. • Private non-profit agencies—i.e., Indian River Medical Center, Sebastian River Medical Center, VNA& Hospice Foundation, Abilities Resource Center, McKee Botanical Garden, St. Edward's School, Suncoast Primary School and Treasure Coast Homeless Service, ESF #15 (United Way) has a complete roster of private non-profit agencies. E. Debris Management 1. During the immediate recovery phase, debris will be removed from roadways, around critical facilities, and shelters in order to provide travel throughout the County. During the intermediate recovery phase, debris will be cleared and removed to designated sites throughout the County. During a major or catastrophic disaster event, such as landfall of a tropical disturbance, debris will not be moved to the landfill immediately. Designated temporary debris disposal sites Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 19 will be used until such time as the debris can be safely and adequately relocated to the Indian River County Landfill. Refer to the Public Works Department(ESF#3)for detailed information relating to debris management. They have a debris management plan and a vendor contract in place for debris removal. The debris management plan addresses the environmental approvals necessary for debris, including FDEP approvals of debris management sites, DOF burn authorizations and documenting proper final disposal of debris. The Fire Rescue Division will coordinate all burn activities, including all Division of Forestry burn authorizations. Relative to legal issues, the County Attorney's Office provides legal services to the Board of County Commissioners, the County Administrator, and County departments. The agency responsibilities relative to emergency debris are as follows: • ESF #1 (Transportation): Provide transportation needs for debris removal assistance; • ESF #3 (Public Works and Engineering): Provide personnel and equipment necessary for debris removal and relocation; • ESF #5 (Information and Planning): Provide location of debris sites through public information bulletins; • ESF #8 (Public Health): Provide inspectors to assure adequate public health quarantine; • ESF #10 (Hazardous Materials): Provide inspectors to assure identification of hazardous materials and proper disposal of hazardous materials; and • ESF #12 (Energy and Utility Services): Provide landfill equipment and personnel to assist with debris site operations. 2. Municipalities will coordinate with ESF #3 (Public Works and Engineering)to provide additional temporary debris collection sites if needed. ESF #3 will also monitor countywide events through the EOC to determine when debris collection sites can begin operation. It is essential that all debris removal issues be coordinated through ESF #3 in order to avoid numerous, unsupervised debris collection/removal sites. To ensure federal reimbursement, ESF #3 will also be responsible for coordination of all federal and state financial assistance, record-keeping, auditing procedures and oversight related to debris removal. Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 20 3. A current list of FDEP approved debris staging areas (Waste Hurricane Tracker 2013) can be found in Appendix 20 of this document. 4. Generally, debris removal from private property following a disaster is the responsibility of the property owner. However, large-scale disasters may deposit enormous quantities of debris on private property over a large area resulting in widespread immediate threats to the public-at-large. In these cases, the State or local government may need to enter private property to remove debris to: eliminate immediate threats to life, public health, and safety; eliminate immediate threats of significant damage to improved property; or ensure economic recovery of the affected community to the benefit of the community-at-large. In these situations, debris removal from private property may be considered to be in the public interest and thus may be eligible for reimbursement under the Public Assistance Program (44 CFR 206.224). 5. Any State or local government that intends to seek reimbursement to remove debris from private property within a designated area will, prior to commencement of work, submit a written request for reimbursement to, and receive approval from, the Federal Coordinating Officer (FCO). The written request will include the following information: a. Public Interest Determination (44 CFR 206.224(a)): i. Immediate Threat to Life, Public Health, and Safety Determination. The basis of a determination by the State, county or municipal government's public health authority or other public entity that has legal authority to make such a determination that disaster-generated debris on private property in the designated area constitutes an immediate threat to life, public health, and safety; or ii. Immediate Threat to Improved Property Determination. The basis of the determination by the State, county, or municipal government that the removal of disaster-generated debris is cost effective. The cost to remove the debris should be less than the cost of potential damage to the improved property in order for the debris removal to be eligible; or iii. Ensure Economic Recovery of the Affected Community to the Benefit of the Community at Large Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 21 Determination. The basis of the determination by the State, county, or municipal government that the removal of debris from commercial properties will expedite economic recovery of the community-at- large. Generally, commercial enterprises are not eligible for debris removal. 6. A Right-of-Entry Agreement has been established and will serve as the "hold harmless" entry procedure for private property debris removal from private property. A copy of this agreement is attached to this document and identified as Attachment 5. 7. All emergency period contracts, including debris removal, will be coordinated with ESF#7 (Resource Management) and supported by a Project Worksheet. F. Community Relations 1. Federal and State Community Relations Teams will work with county government to make sure that residents affected by a local disaster know they can get the government help they need to recover from the disaster. The Emergency Management Director, and/or his designee, will function as the County Community Relations Coordinator and will serve as liaison with the FEMA/State team. The teams will work with ESF #7 (Resource Support). The teams are trained to talk directly with the victims, displaced workers and people with damage to their homes. The teams serve as a direct link between the community and relief agencies. Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 22 The Coordinator is responsible for providing contacts, relationships and rosters of local government officials and appropriate community groups and organizations. Maps and demographic information will also be provided. Community leaders and neighborhood advocacy groups will be identified to assist in the rapid dissemination of information and identifying unmet needs and determining the priorities for disaster recovery. The hard-hit sections of the community will be given top priority. The emergency management office maintains a current list of key community leaders, special populations and geographic areas to be contacted after an emergency. 2. The Emergency Management Director, or his designee, will coordinate with FEMA to oversee all DRCs and assign a liaison to coordinate with the DRC Coordinator at the EOC pre-event and the DFO post-event. 3. The primary agencies for ESF#6 (Mass Care)and ESF#11 (Food and Water), will coordinate with the Emergency Management Director for the placement of feeding, distribution, and temporary living sites. The primary ESF will provide the Emergency Management Division with copies of any Memoranda of Understanding for any site utilized which has not been pre-approved. G. Unmet Needs Coordination 1. Recovery from a disaster is a long, hard process. Countywide unmet needs assistance may be available for those victims that have exhausted all other forms of assistance (i.e., SBA, FEMA, IFG). It is important for victims to know they are not alone, and help in many forms is still available. The United Way (ESF #15 Volunteers & Donations) has the lead responsibility for coordinating volunteer agencies to identify the best resources available to meet the needs of disaster victims on a case-by-case basis. These volunteer efforts are an important element in the long-term recovery process. 2. As a support agency for ESF #15, SAFER Indian River (Support Alliance For Emergency Resiliency), is a network of community groups, government agencies, businesses, faith based organizations and individuals that come together in times of need to help disaster victims recover and mitigate losses. The SAFER mission is to foster efficient, streamlined service delivery to those affected by disaster while eliminating unnecessary duplication of effort. A complete directory of member organizations can be found in Annex I -Response Functions: ESF #15. Sample agencies that are active in SAFER Indian River include: 2-1-1, Gifford Youth Activity Center, First Church of God, Indian River Cares, Indian River County, Mental Health Association, etc. 3. All requests for unmet needs assistance will be forwarded to and coordinated by ESF #15 in the EOC. Information will usually be received either directly by phone from the individual or a referral from a field representative. A current SAFER Indian River organization list identifies what agencies will be a support to unmet needs. 4. ESF #15 also maintains a resource data base of local groups (local churches, private non-private volunteer agencies, civic groups, etc.) listing the available Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 23 resources that may be utilized to meet unmet needs (a complete directory of member organizations can be found in the office of emergency management as well as the EOC office of ESF #15). 5. The designated unmet needs team members will talk directly with victims, displaced workers and people with damage to their homes. They will provide information about assistance for those people with housing or transportation needs, damage to personal property, business losses or loss of employment or earnings. In addition, those with expenses such as disaster-related medical bills, mental health counseling, lost earnings or support due to injury or loss of life may also be eligible to receive assistance. 6. If there are numerous unmet needs cases, the SAFER Board of Directors will prioritize and approve the projects for consideration. 7. Services offered range from financial assistance, debris clean up, minor home repairs and crisis/spiritual counseling. 8. ESF #15 coordinates training and/or seminars in the areas of emergency home repair, debris removal, donations and warehouse management, processing centers, crisis counseling and other needed assistance. 9. ESF #15 will also be responsible for: a. Coordinating and matching the resources with the area of need within the community. b. Participating in daily briefings held in the EOC to determine any unmet needs assistance for the county and its municipalities. C. Coordinating with state and federal representatives regarding unmet needs activities. d. Ensuring appropriate information is provided to ESF#14(Public Information) about unmet needs activities. H. Emergency/Temporary Housing Strategy Following a disaster, temporary housing such as rental units or mobile homes may be needed beyond the period of emergency shelters to accommodate those made homeless by the disaster. Indian River County governmental and non-governmental relief will be provided within their capabilities. Additional resources may be required from State or Federal governments. The Emergency Management Director, and/or his designee,will act as the housing coordinator and liaison with their state counterpart and be responsible for administering and maintaining the strategy. Indian River Cares is a Long Term Recovery Program that was established in Indian River County following the hurricanes of 2004. The program is dormant during non-disaster times, however, is activated during a disaster. It is a non-profit group initiated by FEMA to Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 24 address the long term disaster recovery and future disaster preparedness for Indian River County. The organization seeks to respond to the needs of residents whose needs are not met by typical disaster assistance programs(FEMA,American Red Cross, Salvation Army, Small Business Administration, etc.). Funding for the program is provided through several grant programs including: Volunteer Florida Fund, Eli Lily Corporation, Bank of America, and the United Way of Indian River County Hurricane Relief Funds. The Treasure Coast Homeless Services Council is the fiscal agent and convener for the Long Term Recovery Committee. Indian River Cares has a project coordinator who identifies the needs of victims. Once needs are identified the client's information is entered into a database to determine the extent of their needs and resources and whether or not they have been assisted by FEMA and other organizations. The cases are handled by the project coordinator who secures estimates for the work to be performed, oversees the ordering of materials, and the scheduling of volunteers. Temporary Housing Issues: 1. Temporary housing accommodations may include, but are not limited to the following: a. Unoccupied, available government-owned housing facilities; b. Unoccupied, available housing units financed totally or in part with government funds (a list of subsidized housing projects in maintained on file in the office of Community Development); C. Privately owned rental properties; d. FEMA-owned mobile homes or recreational vehicles. 2. There is nothing more traumatic for victims of disaster than the loss of their home and personal belongings. Finding shelter quickly provides stability for individuals and families during a time of great uncertainty. A potential local rental resource includes the website Yahoo! Real Estate, which is a database resource used to assist with finding homes for sale or rent and to research housing markets. The website can be found at: http://realestate.yahoo.com/Florida/Vero Beach. 3. Minimal repairs to victim's homes may be made to make it habitable until permanent restoration can be made. 4. Mortgage subsidies to, or on behalf of individuals or families who have received written notice of eviction or foreclosure due to financial hardship caused by the disaster may be pursued. 5. Rehabilitation or Emergency/Disaster Repair Loans or Grants may be available to eligible households through the Indian River County Local Housing Assistance Plan. Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Annex IA- Page 25 6. Rental assistance to persons who are suffering financial hardship or loss of housing due to the disaster. 7. Temporary housing may be established in the form of "tent-cities". The Kiwanis Hobart Park area has been designated as the appropriate location for this type of temporary housing. The park is centrally located west of U.S. #1, south of Wabasso. With 659 acres, it is the largest and most developed of the County owned park areas. Hobart Park has amenities that would be conducive to a temporary housing setting; including, public restrooms and BBQ facilities. 8. Issuance of emergency orders issuing rules applying to temporary residential/commercial structures for storm recovery. I. Temporary Roofing Program Should Indian River County experience a disaster significant enough to have been declared by FEMA for the Individual Assistance program, we will utilize the Operation Blue Roof program. Operation Blue Roof is a program managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for the Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The program provides assistance to storm victims in disaster areas through the installation of plastic sheeting on damaged roofs, thereby helping to protect property and allowing residents to remain in their homes. Here are some facts about Operation BLUE ROOF: • To qualify for BLUE ROOF services, damage to the roof must be less than 50 percent and the area to be covered must be structurally sound for a crew to work on. • In order to have plastic sheeting placed on their roofs, homeowners must complete a right of entry form to allow government and contractor employees on their property. Right of Entry (ROE) centers for affected counties are manned by Corps of Engineers employees. • The Corps is covering roofs in the hardest hit counties first. Be patient. The Corps will respond to every person who has completed a ROE as rapidly as possible. • In some instances, there may be a slowdown in installing plastic sheeting because of a national shortage. • Homeowners can also cover their roof with free tarps provided by FEMA and issued through their local governments. Residents need to monitor the media for information on where to pick up the tarps. • The plastic covering and the tarps are temporary fixes designed to provide protection from the elements until the homeowner can make permanent repairs with a qualified professional.

In some cases, a"disaster`is beyond the capabilities of the;State and local government to respond. In 1988,the Robert T. Stafford D salter Relief and Emergency Assistwwe Ac4 42 U.S.C. §§ 5121-5206,was enacted to support and local governments and their citizens when disasters overwhelm them.This law, as amended,establishes a process for requesting and obtaining a Presidential disaster declaration,defines the type and scope of assistance available from the Federal government,and sets the conditions for obtaining that assistance. The; Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA),now part of the Emergency Preparedness and Response Directorate of the Department of Homeland Security,is tasked with coordinating the response. This paper explains the declaration process and provides;an overview of the assistance available. THE DECLARATION PROCESS°= The Stafford Act(§401)requires that:"`All requests an obviouslysevere or catastrophic event occurs,the for a declaration by the President that a major disaster' Governor's request may be submitted prior to the PDA. exists shall be made by the Governor of the affected Nonetheless;the Governor must still'make the request.
