ESF Coordinating Agency: Each ESF has at least one County department or agency identified as an ESF Coordinating Agency. Organizations identified as Coordinating Agencies are responsible for orchestrating countywide mitigation, planning, preparedness, response, and recovery efforts required to ensure the functions required of their ESF are performed successfully. Mitigation: Coordinating Agencies will be responsible for identifying and coordinating efforts to prevent or lessen the impact of disasters related to their ESF. Preparedness: In preparedness, Coordinating Agencies are responsible for developing and maintaining the overall content of their ESF in the CEOP. During the planning process, they provide leadership during ESF workgroup meetings and work to build consensus among stakeholders. Coordinating Agencies also work with JCEM and other organizations to ensure necessary supplements to the ESF annex are developed and maintained, including but not limited to: emergency contact lists, resource lists, organizational/functional plans and/or procedures, EOC job aids (specific to their ESF), and regional plans. Response: During disaster response, the ESF Coordinating Agency will be responsible for orchestrating the county's support within their respective function and serve as the coordinating link between Johnson County and other operational units. When the ESF Team is activated in the Johnson County Emergency Operations Center (EOC), the team will orchestrate the countywide coordination required to fulfill the mission of their ESF. These activities will include: Establish and maintain operational awareness through direct communications links with units in the field and/or their appropriate coordinating entities; Conduct disaster impact and needs assessments, prioritize ESF operational objectives in alignment with the EOC Action Plan, and coordinate ESF response activities; Collect and analyze information relevant to ESF and report in WebEOC and EOC documents including EOC Action Plans and Situational Reports; Receive, manage, & track resource requests for ESF; Ensure full coordination of activities with other groups within the EOC to assist in the development and maintenance of a common operating picture. Recovery: Coordinating Agencies will be responsible for conducting after-action reviews of their response and coordinating recovery activities for their ESF. ESF Support Agencies: There are a number of ESF Support Agencies identified for each ESF. These are organizations whose expertise, resources, and/or statutory responsibility or authority make them invaluable partners in mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery.
