This all-hazards emergency plan guides the emergency management actions of the municipality and describes activities and arrangements to deal with any emergency situation. Should municipal resources be insufficient to deal with the emergency, assistance may be requested from municipal governments and other organizations through mutual aid agreements or memorandums of understanding and from the Provincial Government through the PEl Emergency Measures Organization. - There are certain fundamental principles concerning emergency management in Canada which are recognized, some of these principles are as follows: - a. that responsibilities for meeting most emergencies normally rests with those directly affected, but where the capacity to do so is inadequate and government action is required, the sequence of responsibility would normally start with the local government, move to the provincial government and finally to the federal government if necessary; - b. that operational responsibility for managing emergencies should remain at the lowest level at which it is possible to effectively manage the emergency situation; and - c. that responsibility to respond to emergencies carries a parallel responsibility to plan and prepare for them. By extension of these principles, it is logical that municipal governments should cooperate and provide emergency assistance to one another in emergency situations, before calling on the province for assistance. ## Purpose - The purpose of this plan is to outline the procedures to be followed by local authority to provide a prompt and coordinated response to emergencies. ## Authority 4. This plan is issued by Council, under the authority of: - a. The Emergency Measures Act. - b. The Municipal Government Act. - C. Rural Municipality of Greenmount-Montrose Municipal Emergency Management Program Bylaw 2021-01. ## Definitions ## In this plan: - a. "Act" means the Municipal Government Act. - b.

"Deputy Municipal Emergency Co-ordinator (D/MEC)" means the person appointed by Council as the Deputy Municipal Emergency Co-ordinator to perform liaison duties/responsibilities pursuant to municipal Emergency Management Program Bylaw 2021-01. - f. "Emergency Measures Organization (EMO)" means the Prince Edward Island EMO established under section 3 of the Emergency Measures Act. - h.

This plan shall be implemented: - a. on a declaration of a state of local emergency by Council; or - b. on a declaration of a state of provincial emergency by the Minister responsible for the PEl Emergency Measures Organization, in respect to all, or any part of, the municipality. ## Direction and Control 7. Responsibility for the management of municipal emergency operations rests with the local authority. Council has the authority for decision making during an emergency, with operational decisions being delegated to the Municipal Emergency Coordinator (MEC) and/or Deputy Municipal Emergency Coordinator (D/MEC) in performance of their liaison duties and responsibilities. Council maintains responsibility for ensuring the continuity of municipal business operations outside of the emergency. 8. If an Emergency Operations Centre is established where the lead response agency (EOC Coordinator) is federal, provincial, and/or other local municipal governments) for an emergency situation that affects the Rural Municipality of Greenmount-Montrosethe MEC and/or D/MEC will perform their liaison duties and responsibilities coordinating the efficient emergency response in the municipality on behalf of the Mayor/Council. The location where the MEC and/or D/MEC perform their liaison duties and responsibilities will be determined by the location of the established EOC. 9. If there is a designated emergency site it will be under the direction of the Incident/on-scene Commander. If there is no Incident/on-scene Commander in place, he/she will be designated by the local lead authority. 10. PEI Emergency Measures Organization - The local authority may be advised and assisted by PEI EMO staff and representatives of provincial departments and agencies to provide a coordinated municipal/provincial response. 11. Emergency roles and responsibilities of Municipal Council, the MEC and D/MEC as part of an Emergency Operations Centre Team are listed in the Appendices. ## Requests for Assistance 12. Requests for provincial assistance, if required, will be made to the PEl Emergency Measures Organization (PE EMO) by the person with authority to make such requests on behalf of the municipality. Requests may be verbal initially but must be confirmed in writing. PEI EMO is responsible for coordinating the interface with the municipalities. When the emergency clearly impacts on areas of provincial jurisdiction (e.g., any emergency in an area that is unincorporated, emergencies on provincial lands) or in a provincially declared emergency, the province may assume responsibility for direction and coordination of the emergency. Municipal operations will remain under the authority of the municipal jurisdiction but may be coordinated provincially. ## Notification 13. When an emergency occurs, or is imminent, the person or agency becoming aware of the situation will be responsible for alerting the MEC and/or D/MEC who will in turn alert Mayor/Council. The MEC and/or D/MEC will locate to the declared EOC and begin liaison duties and responsibilities. ## Expenditures - Since the municipality does not own, operate, or maintain any potential emergency operations equipment, the Council may authorize the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) to incur any liabilities that the CAO considers necessary to assist in the emergency response or recovery which is beyond current budget allowances. The CAO is responsible for keeping records of the expenditures made and the equipment used in implementing the Municipal Emergency Management Program or responding to a declared emergency. ## Review and Amendment 15. This plan will be reviewed annually each September by the MEC and/or D/MEC, who will be responsible for the preparation of amendments, as required, and for submission to PEI EMO for review. ## Emergency Operations Center (EOC) ## 16. Situations: - a. The scope and nature/geography of the emergency situation requires an EOC to be established/located by the lead response agency either: - (1) local municipal governments) and/or - (2) provincial agencies, and/or - (3) federal agencies In this situation, the Greenmount-Montrose MEC and/or D/MEC will liaise in location with the lead response agency which establishes the EOC for the emergency situation. - b. Since the municipality does not own, operate, or maintain any potential emergency operations resources, the establishment and lead operation of a Greenmount-Montrose municipal EOC is not expected. The specific involvement of municipal representativeMEC and/or D/MEC, will be restricted to liaison duties and responsibilities in the established EOC for any emergency situation. - c. The Mayor and CAO will remain focused on maintaining and managing regular business of the Municipality along with being the lead spokespersons for the municipality during any emergency situation involving the municipality. - d. The MEC and/or D/MEC is responsible for overall emergency policy and municipal coordination and agency liaison, and proper risk management procedures, through the joint efforts of local, provincial and/or federal government agencies and/or private organizations. ## Exercise Work Plan NOTE: The Rural Municipality of Greenmount-Montrose does not own, operate, or maintain any emergency response resources. Therefore, any municipal emergency exercise planning will be through participation with local municipal governments-the Town of Alberton and/or the Town of Tignish-emergency management exercise work plans. 17.
