Florida’s Unified
Operational Response Plan
To Hurricane Katrina (Task Force Florida)
Introduction
During the historically devastating 2004 Hurricane season, over 700 personnel
from 32 states support Florida’s State Emergency Response Team via the
Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC). EMAC personnel and
teams performed many important functions at the State Emergency Operations
Center in Tallahassee as well as in the field. EMAC deployed Incident
Management Teams provided support and guidance to County Emergency
Operations Center, personnel assisted with logistics distribution, provided
emergency medical support and other needed response and recovery support.
To reciprocate for EMAC assistance rendered during the 2004 Hurricane season,
Florida’s State Coordinating Officer contacted the Mississippi Emergency
Management Agency prior to landfall of Hurricane Katrina to offer Florida’s
assistance. The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency accepted the offer
of assistance and assigned response operations coordination of the six (6)
southern most counties to the Florida State Emergency Response Team (SERT)
Thus, Task Force Florida was created to deploy to Mississippi to initiate
response operations. Task Force Florida is a team of multidisciplinary
professional emergency managers that deployed to Mississippi to establish an
Area Command, begin Search and Rescue operations and to plan for a logistics
delivery system to support both emergency workers and victims within the area
of operations.
A.
Purpose
The purpose of Task Force Florida is to establish command and control of
a catastrophically impact geographic area to take care of the disaster
victim and support the emergency worker.
B.
Assumptions
1. Counties or other state(s) have been struck with a major hurricane,
Category 4 or greater.
2. The critical infrastructure has been devastated and in some instances
is non-existent.
3. Major flooding and storm surge.
4. The coastal areas as well as major cities may be affected.
3
5. All logistics support for both the emergency worker and victims must
be brought into the area of impact due to the destruction of the
commercial and business environment.
6. Emergency workers plan to be self-sustaining for 72 hours.
7. Task Force Florida must not negatively impact services or businesses
in the area of impact.
8. The coastal areas may be inaccessible by ground, post-impact; bridges may
be intact, delays due to I-10 Bridge construction, and access roads may be
washed out or cluttered with debris.
9. Communication may be lost due to storm impact.
10. Drinking water lines may be compromised and water will have to be
brought in from un-impacted areas.
11. Local airports and their runways may sustain moderate to severe
damage from wind, heavy rainfall, and tornadoes.
12. Fuel may be difficult to obtain due to damaged or destroyed fueling
facilities and saltwater contamination on the barrier islands.
13. Aviation communications may be problematic within the disaster area
due to potential lack of power and engine generator fuel.
C.
Conditions
There are three conditions under which the Florida Division of Emergency
Management would establish a Task Force Florida.
1. When local communities are threatened or impacted by disaster, the
State Emergency Response Team (SERT) will support local response
and recovery operations as requested. The SERT operates out of the
State Emergency Operations Center (SEOC) located in Tallahassee or
from one of the alternate SEOC’s when warranted.
The Task Force will allow the Florida SERT to extend its command and
control expertise and capabilities into the impacted area. The area of
operations assigned to the Task Force Florida was determined based
on the magnitude of impact, logistics involved in service delivery, and
the complexity/status of the impacted local governments. Task Force
Florida was assigned to six jurisdictions, however, circumstances may
dictate that additional counties be served by the Task Force Florida
with liaisons teams assigned to each county for intergovernmental
planning and coordination of resources.
4
2. Under the Division’s Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP), situation
may warrant the relocation of all or part of the Florida Division of
Emergency Management structure to an alternate facility in order to
maintain both emergency as well as day-to-day operations, abet at a
reduced work force.
3. Upon request by other impacted States or the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA), Task Force Florida will be deployed to
assist as needed.
D.
Team Composition
Task Force Florida will take on the structure of a standard Area Command
Team configuration with the addition of an Operations Branch as
described in the Incident Command system, including accompanying subunits, task forces and strike forces. The Task Force Florida embraces the
National Incident Management System. Task Force Florida is fully selfcontained via the establishment of a logistical supply “pipeline.”
5
The base Task Force Florida team requires 44 personnel or 22 per shift.
In addition, logistical personnel will be required to support the Task Force.
The Task Force structure is depicted in the diagram below.
As with any Incident Command Team, the needs/requirements of the
disaster event dictates the team make up. For instance, there may not be
a need for liaisons or there may be a requirement for Emergency Services
Strike Forces. As such as few or as many ESFs or teams will be utilized.
The establishment and location of Task Force Florida will be coordinated
between the SERT Chief in the SEOC and Task Force Florida Chief being
deployed into the area of operations. In the event of a multiple county
impact, consideration should be given to locating Task Force Florida in a
non-impacted county EOC, with liaisons assigned to each of the impacted
counties.
Task Force Florida was initially deployed with only Search and Rescue
and Security under the Operations Branch. The Information and Planning,
Logistics and Finance and Administration Branches deployed with staff as
depicted in the organization chart above. The Emergency Support
Function 8 – Health and Medical, the Human Services and Infrastructure
Branches and the Logistics Section were staffed within 18 hours after the
Task Force initially arrived in the area of operations. Additional staff were
deployed based on operational requirements.
II.
CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS
A.
Operational Plan
The operational plan will be based on the mission request, but the
planning assumption is that the request will fall into one of three
categories:
1.
Limited Operation
Mission request is limited to specific resources from the Emergency
Services Branch that would operate within a small area of response
(population under 100,000) that most likely would include:



IMT team to support the forward emergency services team
FWC and coordinating agencies will identify assets and load
element
Coordinate to secure CAP aerial video downlink for recon
(Infrastructure)
6




2.
Place medium and heavy airlift helicopters on standby
(FLNG)
Request EMAC liaison with Mississippi and/or Alabama
Coordinate fuel tenders to travel with initial response
elements
Provide GPS coordinates to first response teams for
mapping of initial response areas and critical infrastructure
Intermediate Operation
Mission request is limited to specific resources from two branches
including the Emergency Services Branch that would operate within
an area of response (population more than 100,000 but less than
250,000) that most likely would include:




USAR for coastal or inland county(s) this would include FWC
resources for water access
Large security force to assist local authorities
Health and Medical support for the health care system for
multiple counties
Type III IMT team would add personnel to a Type II IMT to
support the forward emergency services teams
a. Transportation
Once teams are inserted into the impacted areas, ground
transportation will be supported by one of several means:
 ATV’s supplied by FWC/DEP, may be inserted by
vessel
 ATV’s supplied by FWC, may be inserted by helicopter
 Local ground transportation procured by logistics
support
b. Communication
The initial communications will be supported by:


USAR communication ground team
Law Enforcement Mutual Aid channels
c. Logistics
All response teams and their members shall:
7





Teams will be required to bring five (5) days worth of
food and water
Initial logistics will be established by ground, air and
water re-supply routes
Fuel for ground, aviation and marine assets will
require re-supply routes if fueling locations in the area
of operation are compromised
Lodging resources to be located by logistics
Potential command post location to be determined
from staging area after assessing weather status.
d. Incident Management Team (IMT)
The initial command team provided by the Florida Division of
Forestry will organize the forward response element. Once
the forward response teams are deployed the final element
to be inserted will be the incident management team who will
establish all unified support for the first responder teams.
Once the initial response missions are completed this team
can transition to larger scale operations to support long-term
response or humanitarian efforts.
3. Large Scale Operation
Mission request is for maximum resources from multiple branches
including the Emergency Services Branch that would operate within a
wide area of response (population more than 250,000) that most likely
would include:





USAR for coastal or inland county(s) this would include FWC
resources for water access
Large security force to assist local authorities
Health and Medical support for the health care system for multiple
counties
Type II IMT to support the forward emergency services teams
Support to the State EOC
B. Roles and Responsibilities

Logistic Support
a.
Logistic Support to FDEM Incident Management and
Task Force Florida Supporting Pre-deployment
Coordination
Support for the deployment of the Task Force Florida to an incident
shall be coordinated in advance whenever practical.
State Mobile Command Vehicle: the MCV would be deployed with
the FDEM Incident Management Team to the worse affected
county to assist in supporting the county with resource
management, assessment of needs and operations as required.
12
The MCV is self sufficient for at least 3-5 days. The Team well carry
MRE’s and water to support the Team for at least 7-days. Each tem
member must be self-sufficient to include sleeping gear (sleeping
bag, pillow etc) as well as personal hygiene items. The Division will
assign tactical back-packs to select full time assigned team
members for support purposes.
Travel and lodging arrangements: The Logistic Section Resource
Management Branch Chief shall meet with Finance and
Administration personnel to arrange travel into the impacted area,
lodging and ground transportation. Recommend one 4x4 vehicle
per two team members and at least one vehicle is a “Suburban”
style for communications. Alternative transportation in the form of
mass transit may also be arranged, such as the use of one or more
charter buses to transport personnel to the alternate site.
Alternative housing for the FDEM Incident Management Team is to
lease 3-5 Class “A” RV’s. These afford both billeting, food service
as well as extended office space for the Team. The RV’s travel with
the State Mobile Command Vehicle to forward areas to support the
IMT and State Coordinating Officer. Note that federal (FEMA)
personnel may accompany the SCO to the field. State housing /
RV’s would support any federal personnel accompanying the SCO.
The Finance and Administration Section Chief will arrange for a
Purchase Card (P-Card) for use to support the Task Force Florida.
This typically would be through the assignment of a Finance staff
member to the team to manage all fiscal matters to include local
purchases. The P-Card will be used for official business only as
described in the State of Florida purchasing guidelines and
statutes.
Every state vehicle has a Voyager Fleet Fuel Card assigned to it for
official use. These cards will be used only for state vehicles. All
personnel using rental vehicles are required to purchase fuels on
their own and submit for reimbursement. When contract
transportation services are arranged, the cost of the fuel is included
in the contract terms.
