21 CITY OF SAN LEANDRO EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN Incident Commander (IC) or Unified Command (UC) at an Incident Command Post (ICP) using the elements of SEMS. Most incidents will be resolved at the field level, and the EOC will not be actfvated. Support is only requested through the EOC when existfng mutual aid channels do not have the type or number of resources needed. Resources requested by the field are elevated to the next successive level of government untfl obtained, or the request is canceled. For complex incidents, the City of San Leandro EOC or individual department operatfons centers (DOCs) may actfvate to support response efforts in the field. In this case, the IC or UC will coordinate directly with the EOC or DOC to support decision-making and situatfonal awareness. Tactfcal control of assets remains the responsibility of the IC/UC. 3.3. DEPARTMENT OPERATIONS CENTERS Some City of San Leandro departments may actfvate department operatfons centers (DOCs) to support response operatfons. DOCs focus on internal departmental management and response and may provide functfonal support to field operatfons. The DOC often serves as a direct link to the Operatfons Sectfon in the EOC. DOCs directly support informatfon and resource management for individual departments and communicate all informatfon to the City of San Leandro EOC using Veoci and Microsoft Teams. The Public Works and Police Departments may actfvate a DOC, depending on the circumstances of the incident. 3.4. OPERATIONAL AREA COORDINATION The Alameda County OA is a composite of its politfcal subdivisions (i.e., municipalitfes, contract citfes, special districts, and county agencies). The Alameda County OA EOC supports informatfon and resource coordinatfon throughout the Alameda County OA. If one or more local jurisdictfon EOC is actfvated, or the incident requires state or regional support, the Alameda County OA EOC will likely actfvate to support response operatfons. The Alameda County EOC coordinates mutual aid requests and resources from all OA jurisdictfons and serves as a direct link from the City of San Leandro to the State. The City of San Leandro maintains direct communicatfon with the Alameda County OA EOC and any actfvated EOCs in OA member jurisdictfons. If the City of San Leandro requires non-public safety mutual aid, the Logistfcs Sectfon submits a resource request to the Alameda County OA EOC, which works to fulfill the request. 3.5. EMERGENCY SUPPORT FUNCTIONS The City of San Leandro and Alameda County reference emergency support functfons (ESFs) in their planning and response frameworks. ESFs provide an all-hazards methodology to emergency management to help response partners respond to incidents collaboratfvely. ESFs provide a structure for planning a coordinated incident response. ESFs improve communicatfon among partners, enhance resource sharing, reduce duplicatfon of efforts, advocate for contfnuity of operatfons, and support hazard mitfgatfon programming. The State of California and the federal government organize response efforts in ESFs. A list of ESFs and their associated departments can be seen in Appendix 9.4. 3.6. MUTUAL AID The City of San Leandro will always respond to any incident using its internal resources. If these resources are exhausted or are antfcipated to be soon exhausted, the City of San Leandro may request assistance from other local jurisdictfons and higher levels of government by contactfng the Alameda County EOC.
