Planning Assumptions. 2.1 Resources required will be determined by joint agreement.
2.2 Vendor will manage transportation of the PCS Minicells and associated equipment to the Site. The cost for this service will be fixed per Site. Extraordinary charges, crane, helicopter, special equipment or additional personnel etc., when applicable, will be a Owner responsibility.
2.3 Owner will be responsible for insurance and damage including any losses due to transportation and storage. Normal Vendor warranty applies to unit functional failure. Unit damage occurring while in shipment, or while stored at the Owner's local distribution center is at Owner cost.
2.4 A purchase order will be signed prior to start of work efforts.
Planning Assumptions. The panel shall have jurisdiction to arbitrate in respect of any matter which the Gwich’in agreement stipulates is to be determined by arbitration and any matter concerning the interpretation or application of the Gwich’in agreement where the parties agree to be bound by an arbitration decision in accordance with the dispute resolution chapter.
Planning Assumptions. The Board may participate in harvesting studies and other data collection conducted in the settlement area by government or by others. It is understood that the Renewable Resources Board will not enter into the independent conduct of field research, unless so agreed to by government.
Planning Assumptions. A disaster may overwhelm the capabilities of the participating jurisdictions, preventing a timely and effective response to meet the needs of the situation. For example, the occurrence of a large or catastrophic earthquake may cause casualties, property loss, disruption of normal life support systems, and impact the county’s economic, physical, and social infrastructures.
Planning Assumptions a. Because NIMS is the universal method for coordination, it may be used at many levels throughout the community. Simultaneous NIMS organizations should be anticipated.
b. Nothing in this plan is intended to inhibit innovative and resourceful response by communities and agencies in reaction to unique emergency needs. Expedient field activity is appropriate, provided that the ultimate goal is to establish safe and coordinated actions.
c. No part of this plan is intended to usurp or replace the command authority of any participating agency but reflects how those authorities can unite and coordinate their resources to their maximum collective advantage.
Planning Assumptions a. It will be assumed that the primary movement of people and materials will be over the highway networks with private vehicles and buses. Air transportation will only be used for the extremely urgent need of personnel and supplies.
b. Transportation systems into and within the county could be disrupted making movement of personnel, supplies, and equipment difficult.
c. Rapid damage assessment of impacted area will assist in the determination of response priorities and transportation demands. Local jurisdictions and agencies will be working to restore the transportation system in their area of responsibility and reporting status to the county EOC, as applicable.
Planning Assumptions a. Rapid assessment of the involved area(s) will be initiated to determine critical needs and priorities. Resources, including personnel, will be identified, prioritized, and managed based on critical needs.
b. Actions to support immediate lifesaving response, such as clearing debris and emergency repair of critical roads and streets will be given high priority.
c. The magnitude of the event will require extensive coordination and assistance from all the public works departments within the county. Further assistance from other agencies, private contractors, and/or resources outside the county may be necessary.
Planning Assumptions a. Urban, rural, and wildland fires may result from, or occur simultaneously with another significant emergency or disaster. Large, damaging fires could occur.
b. Landline communications will be interrupted. Radio communications will be relied on heavily. Other sources such as Amateur Radio Emergency Services (ARES) and Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Services (RACES) and/or the State EOC.
c. Wheeled-vehicle access may be hampered by bridge failures, landslides, and debris on the roadways, making conventional travel to the emergency location extremely difficult or impossible. Aerial attack by air tankers and assistance from smoke jumpers and helicopters may be essential. Aircraft, especially helicopters, will be scarce, and airports may be damaged and/or very congested.
d. Wildland firefighting forces may be diverted to assist in rural and urban areas because of more urgent threats to life, property, and the environment due to shortages of urban firefighters. Local firefighters may aid in dissemination of warning to the public in addition to fighting large and numerous fires.
e. Efficient and effective mutual aid among the various local agencies and jurisdictions, state and federal agencies requires the use of the National Incident Management System (NIMS), together with compatible equipment and communications.
Planning Assumptions a. Urgent response requirements during an emergency or disaster, or the threat of one, and to plan for continuing response and recovery activities, necessitates the immediate and continuing collection processing, and dissemination of situational information.
b. Information, especially during the early phases of the event, may be inaccurate, ambiguous, conflict with information form other sources or with previous information from the same source, or be limited in detail.
c. The KCEOC, command post or other designated location will be used as the point- of-contact for all information coordination.
d. Individual jurisdictions and agencies will be very busy with the event and information and updates provided to the EOC will be delayed or overlooked.
e. Citizens and/or the media may be unknowingly or purposefully spreading speculation and rumors.
f. Information and reports to the EOC will improve as the situation/event progresses.
g. Information collection may be hampered due to many factors including, but not limited to: damage to communication systems; communication systems overload; damage to the transportation infrastructure; and effects of weather, smoke, and other environmental factors.
Planning Assumptions. NJDOH assumes that eligible organization has consulted with County and Local stakeholders regarding Implementation Requirements prior to application submission.
