PROGRAM INFORMATION & DATA:
 
 When a major emergency occurs, either natural or manmade, the Office of
 Emergency Management interacts with other emergency agencies from both the
 public and private sectors to coordinate response and relief activities.  This
 includes contact with agencies and departments from the local, State, and
 Federal governments.  This office is also responsible for maintaining and
 updating the local emergency operations plan, which serves as an operational
 guideline to agencies during significant emergencies.  Additionally, the
 terrorists attacks on America on Setpember 11, 2001, plus the subsequent anthrax
 incidents, has resulted in this office participating in training and preparing
 for acts of terrorism that could include the employment of weapons of mass
 destruction.
 
 DEPARTMENT GOALS:
 
 Continue to maintain a high state of preparedness by interacting and
 coordinating the activities of emergency agencies at the local, State and
 Federal levels of government before, during and after an incident.
 
 Conduct two emergency management workshops in Enfield with local agencies.
 
 Upon request from Incident Commander, respond to scene of emergencies to assist
 in operations.
 
 Participate, when possible, in simulated exercises with local emergency response
 agencies.
 
 Continue active participation with regional emergency management efforts such as
 the Capitol Region Emergency Preparedness Commission and the North Central
 Connecticut Off-Site Air Crash Committee.
