Because of the continually changing nature of contact names, numbers and resources, it's imperative to regularly update Emergency Operations Plans (EOP). An EOP describes who will do what, as well as when, with what resources, and by what authority - before, during and immediately after an emergency disaster.
OEM updates the State EOP annually and recommends the same for local plans and requires it of all State-Local Assistance (SLA) program participating jurisdictions. OEM maintains a current copy of all 77 county EOPs and numerous municipal EOPs.
