1. General Services has a limited capability to repair damage, restore utilities, and remove <br />debris at County government facilities. <br />2. As required, these department personnel can repair and improve shelter facilities. <br />3. The landfill has sufficient capacity to hold and dispose the collected debris. <br />III. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS <br />A. During emergency situations, General Services continues its normal duties and expands its <br />support to provide the necessary service to the County agencies responding to the emergency. <br />B. General Services is prepared to operate and repair all power generation equipment, provide <br />recovery and repair of County vehicles damaged during emergency response operations, and <br />repair and modify facilities to meet emergency requirements. This includes shelter sites as <br />needed. <br />C. General Services provides support for emergency response agencies and coordinates with the <br />Finance Department and local businesses to provide the materials, equipment, and labor <br />necessary to accomplish the required tasks. As needed, the Director of General Services <br />requests additional support from local municipalities through the Emergency Management <br />Coordinator. <br />D. The General Services Director coordinates and conducts debris removal at County facilities. <br />The Landfill Supervisor assists with this task by providing additional vehicles, equipment, <br />and personnel. <br />E. Damage assessment teams provide information on the locations, amount, and types of debris <br />encountered during their operations to the General Services Director (see Annex M - Damage <br />Assessment, Annex R — Recovery, and the Disaster Debris Management Plan). <br />F. The Landfill Supervisor organizes the landfill to receive the incoming debris and ensures that <br />no hazardous wastes are included in the debris brought to the site. The landfill staff identifies <br />a separate area for hazardous materials and clearly marks it for incoming traffic. The <br />Emergency Management Coordinator provides for additional personnel and equipment <br />support to dispose of the debris quickly and safely. <br />G. The General Services Director notifies the County Emergency Management Coordinator <br />when County resources are inadequate for the mission(s) at hand. <br />H. The Emergency Management Coordinator requests assistance from other municipalities' <br />response organizations and from the North Carolina Division of Emergency Management. <br />I. Each municipality serves its own community during the initial response to the emergency. <br />When municipal capabilities are exhausted, additional support is requested under existing <br />mutual aid agreements. If needed, the Emergency Management Coordinator can assist these <br />operations by requesting state or federal assistance. <br />Cabarrus County EOP — Annex I — Public Works <br />Attachment number 9 <br />F -6 Page 248 <br />
