Overview of the training:
The purpose of this training is to define responsibilities, identify resources, and establish procedures to be implemented in the event of an emergency in an airport. While every contingency cannot be anticipated and prepared for, the airports believe strong emergency preparedness can assist in limiting the negative impact of these events, including liability and post-emergency issues.
The purpose of the emergency plan is to:
- Provide an operational template of how an Airport emergency response will be structured and coordinated in case of an emergency.
- Provide guidance as to how the emergency response roles will be filled and how those duties will be carried out.
- Provide operation checklists for specific emergency events at the Airport.
- Highlight key communication elements essential for effective emergency response and mitigation.
This training focuses on response and initial recovery issues and:
- Assigns responsibility to agencies and individuals for specific actions.
- Sets forth lines of authority.
- Describes how people and property will be protected.
- Identifies personnel, equipment, facilities, supplies, and other resources available.
