County Executive Office Countywide Public Mass Notification System Policy and Guideline Effective: June 30, 2008 I. PURPOSE The purpose of this document is to provide governance and guideline on the use and administration of a County of Orange, Countywide Public Mass Notification System, hereinafter referred to as 'System'. This document is intended to be general, describing countywide policies, jurisdictional roles and responsibilities and activation guidelines rather than specific step-by-step procedures. The step-by step procedures for activation and use will be maintained in a separate document maintained by the Orange County Sheriffs Department Emergency Management Bureau as part of the County's overall planning and response efforts. II. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The primary intent of the Countywide Public Mass Notification System is to disseminate early warning and time sensitive information to county businesses and residents during time of an emergency event. The Public Mass Notification System is only one component of the County of Orange Public Warning System. As deemed fit by local authorities, the System should be used in conjunction with the other public warning mechanisms including, but not limited to, the Emergency Alert System, sirens and route alerting. The Mass Notification System is available 24/7 and has been pre-loaded with Orange County landline phone numbers (including unlisted) and countywide geographic maps. Additionally, citizens have the option to provide additional contact information via self- registration from county and participating city websites. Upon local authority decision to activate, the System will be used to send a message, describing the situation and recommended action the public should take, to affected businesses and households via telephone, e-mail and/or text. The County of Orange, County Executive Office (CEO), is the sponsor of the Countywide Public Mass Notification System initiative and will take appropriate measures to ensure that the System is in a state of operational readiness at all times. It is the responsibility of all participating Agencies to maximize Citizen benefits from the System. While the County's intent for implementing and maintaining the System is for 'emergency" use, upon consent from local authorities, cities may optionally use the System to disseminate 'government-related" non-emergency notifications to citizens and organization resources within its jurisdiction. See Section V. Authorized Use and Section VIII. Cost for policy guidelines relating to non-emergency use. Page 1 of9 711 \12008 'l ,,' 0/( ';""~:~l .:::.;; 'r~l- ~ _l'\ C'I Of , 1m U\.~,t!".. ('. . .v .1 (IIOV-"'" County Executive Office Countywide Public Mass Notification System Policy and Guideline III. GOVERNANCE The County of Orange CEO\Chief Information Office will manage the Mass Notification System as a countywide asset under the rules and protocols approved by the Emergency Management Council (EMC) and Operational Area (OA) Executive Board, and agreed upon by each individual Agency when they opt into the system. Use of the System by each Agency is contingent upon that Agency abiding by the contract with the mass notification vendor, and the protocols established by the Emergency Management Council and Operational Area Executive Board. The System utilizes the 9-1-1 database to complete the notifications. The use of the 9-1-1 database is regulated by the California Public Utilities Code (CPUC) sections 2872 and 2891.1. The information contained in the 9-1-1 database is confidential and proprietary and shall not be disclosed or utilized except by authorized personnel for the purpose of emergency notifications. The County of Orange, CEO\Chief Information Office is responsible to ensure that the provisions of the contract are impiemented properly. Authorized users must respect the integrity of the database, understand the privacy issues and fully comply with the policies and protocols outlined in this document. If violations of the contract provisions or the EMCIOA Executive Board-approved protocols are made by any individual or Agency, the County of Orange, CEO\Chief Information Office reserves the right to disable that individual's or Agency's login(s). IV. GENERAL SYSTEM FEATURES At minimum, the CEO shall acquire and maintain a Public Mass Notification System capable of meeting the following requirements. A.

AUTHORIZED USE The Mass Notification System is designed to be a countywide asset, available to all Agencies that have a dedicated public safety answering point (PSAP) and resident population they are responsible to make protective action recommendations for. An Agency may participate in the countywide System at no charge when used for emergency purposes. Agencies wishing to participate may do so by having an authoritative representative sign the "Orange County Public Mass Notification System' MOU. Upon signing the agreement, the Agency will be provided a local administrator account, a vendor provided user manual and initial training. Throughout the term of the agreement, the Agency may use the System to send an unlimited number of emergency notifications to the public as well as an unlimited number of emergency and non-emergency inter-department messages. It is recommended that each participating Agency develop and maintain written procedures to identify and address the Agency's specific use of the System within the scope of this policy guide. Agencies authorized to join the system at no cost are limited to the incorporated cities in the Orange County Operational Area, County agencies and departments, California State University, Fullerton and University of California, Irvine. Each participating Agency will maintain, at minimum, a Local Agency Administrator responsible for implementing and administering use of the System at the local level. A. Emergency Use Use of the Mass Notification System for emergency activity contains two components: (1) the need to disseminate critical, safety-related information to individuals within a short timeframe, and (2) communicating with safety-responder staff, volunteers and involved parties about an approaching or present emergency event. Emergency Public Notifications are limited to: 1. Imminent or perceived threat to life or property 2. Disaster notifications 3. Evacuation notices 4. Public health emergencies 5. Public safety emergencies 6. Any notification to provide emergency information to a defined community As a general rule, the System is to be used when the public is being asked to take some action (e.g. evacuate, prepare to evacuate, shelter in place, boil tap water before drinking, missing child, notification of closure of the incident). The following criteria should be utilized to assist with determining the need to issue an alert: 1. Severity. Is there a significant threat to public life and safety? 2. Public Protection. Is there a need for members of the public to take a protective action in order to reduce loss of life or substantial loss of property? Page 3 of9 711112008 ~" ,,' 0/(, .;. '"T_ ~,. "."..

Is that area of a size that will allow for an effective use of the system, given the outgoing call capacity? 6, Are other means of disseminating the information inadequate to ensure proper and time delivery of the information? If the answer to ALL of these questions is "Ves., then an activation of the Mass Notification System for emergency purposes is warranted, Emergency Response Notifications are limited to: 1, Contacting first responders to advise of an emergency 2, Contacting first responders to report for duty due to an emergency 3, Contacting key staff regarding an emergency or crisis situation 4, Contacting agency employees/DSWs to report at a different time or location (or provide an update) due to an emergency 5, Exercises Emergency considerations: 1 , Notification shall clearly state situation is an emergency 2, Message length shall not exceed 60 seconds 3, Always provide a phone number or website where the public can obtain additional or updated information 4, An all clear notification should be sent when applicable B. Inter-Department Communication Participating Agencies may use the Mass Notification System for non-emergency inter- departmental business communication as needed, without cost It is recommended that individual Agencies identify where this would add value to their operations and establish separate written protocols and procedures for this use, C. Non-Emergency Public Use Use of the Mass Notification System for non-emergency public announcements requires pre-authorization from the local Agency, Non-emergency use shall be consistent and in compliance with the non-emergency guidelines included within, Agencies who contract to use the countywide System for non-emergency activity agree to give precedence to emergency notification call-outs by delaying or terminating non-emergency notification sessions if needed to increase emergency message success, The primary concern for point of failure in this situation is not the Mass Notification System, but the telephone port capacity of local phone providers responsible for delivering calls to residents, Cost associated with non-emergency public notifications is the responsibility of the local Agency, See section VIII, Costs, Page 4 of9 7/\112008 ,,,-"" " O/( ;J~-(l O! \r, u\ ;1l!!;:'; '>{l;> C;j ,'~ ( /fO\'''''' County Executive Office Countywide Public Mass Notification System Policy and Guideline Non-emergency public notification use is prohibited for any of the following purposes: 1. Any message of commercial nature 2. Any message of a political nature 3. Any non-official business (e.g. articles, retirement announcements, etc.) 4. To send a message to an E911 obtained data source; see Section III, Govemance, for additional information relating to E911 data use restrictions Non-emergency considerations: 1.

A. Public Notifications 1. The County of Orange is authorized to use the System to send notifications of regional emergencies to any and all residents within the Operational Area (example: Health Officer Countywide order). Upon sending a countywide notification, Orange County Sheriff's Department Emergency Management Bureau will, as soon as possible, advise the appropriate local Agency that mass notifications have been sent by the County to residents of their cities. 2, Other than regional emergency notifications, public notifications are the responsibility of the individual Agency. In the event that the geographical location of an incident requires a message to be delivered to multiple jurisdictions, the responsible Agency will inform each individual Agency so that they can send the message to those affected within their own jurisdiction. Exceotion: Unless otherwise agreed by the Sheriff's Department and the City, unincorporated neighborhoods embedded within City limits will receive mass notification of local city emergency activity from City Officials when the County EOC is not activated. 3, For an Agency wishing to send or receive messages to or from a neighboring Agency during time of a multi-jurisdictional incident, an MOU should be established between both parties that grants permission for the handling Agency to send emergency notification to residents within the affected Agency. 4, In the event a participating Agency is unable to send out an emergency message, the Orange County Control One Coordinated Communications Center is available to act on the local Agency's behalf. 5, Participating Agencies are authorized to develop pre-established notification lists and messages to meet their individual needs. These lists may include special populations (e,g, in-home care, schools, etc) or those susceptible to certain risks (e.g, homes within dam inundation zone). It is the responsibility of the participating Agency to create, maintain and update these lists. B. Emergency Response and Inter-Department Notifications: 1. Each participating Agency is authorized to create employee/volunteer and department call lists and pre-recorded messages. 2, It is the sole responsibility of each participating Agency to maintain these lists and to launch notifications as deemed necessary, VIII. COSTS The County of Orange agrees to fund the System for notifications classified as "emergency use", The County of Orange also agrees to continue to purchase updated E911 telephone data and geographic maps. Costs associated with use of the System for non-emergency activity is the responsibility of the local Agency through separate contract with the mass notification Vendor.
