and property of its residents when threatened from natural disasters, as well
as man-made occurrences such a hazardous materials incidents.
This coordination is possible through the development and
constant updating of an Integrated Emergency Operating Plan that effectively combines
all Parish Department Operations along with those of other service
agencies during emergencies. Hazards analysis, mitigation efforts, preparedness,
and response and recovery procedures for all the potential hazards that could
threaten our parishes are the year-around planning efforts performed and executed
by the staff.
The office of Homeland Security/Emergency Preparedness
operates from the Parish’s Emergency Operating Center (EOC). It is the primary
site for direction and control of emergency operations. The EOC linked with the
911 Communications Center, sheriff, police, fire, medical and all parish service
departments work together to form the parish’s emergency team.
