Forplanningpurposes,acatastrophicincidentisdefinedintheNationalResponseFrameworkasany naturalormanmadeincident,includingterrorism,whichresultsinanextraordinarylevelofmass casualties,damage,ordisruptionseverelyaffectingthepopulation,infrastructure,environment, economy,nationalmorale,and/orgovernmentfunctions. Furtherdiscussionregardingthenatureofcatastrophicevents,includingriskanalyses,limitations,and criticalassumptions,isprovidedintheNCRCatastrophicIncidentStrategicPlan,finalizedonJanuary,2, 2010.

Background

StateandlocaljurisdictionswithintheNCRareresponsiblefordevelopingemergencyoperationsplans, whichincludeprovisionsforpublicsafety.TheNCRjurisdictionshavedevelopedvariousmechanismsto coordinateemergencymanagementactivities,includingaRegionalEmergencyCoordinationPlan (RECP),RegionalEmergencySupportFunctions(RESFs),anNCRFirstHourChecklist,andvarious MemorandaofUnderstanding(MOUs).(Formorereferences,pleaseseeAppendixB.)

OverarchingAssumptionsandCommonFindings
EvacuationofFederalEmployees
ThereiscurrentlynocomprehensivefederalevacuationplanfortheNCR.Undercurrentlaw,onlythe GovernorsofMarylandandVirginia,andtheMayoroftheDistrictofColumbia,mayissueevacuation ordersfortheirrespectivejurisdictions. However,OPMcouldcallfortheearlyreleaseofallfederalemployeesintheNCR,andtheWhiteHouse couldchangetheContinuityofOperations/ContinuityofGovernmentCondition(COOP/COGCONLevel) forallexecutivedepartmentsandagencies,which,whencombined,mayhavethesamepracticaleffect asanevacuationoffederalemployees.

BasicAssumptions
TheseassumptionsareacceptedastrueforthepurposeofthedevelopmentoftheCONPLAN: 1. Eachfederaldepartmentandagencydevelops,maintainsand,whennecessary,implementsan OccupantEmergencyPlan(OEP)toprotectlifeandpropertyinfederallyoccupiedspaceunder emergencyconditions(41C.F.R.10271.20). 2. FederaldepartmentsandagencieswithintheNCRhavecurrent,approvedplansthatdescribe theevacuationand/orshelterinplaceproceduresfortheirfacilitiesandpersonnel. 3. Suchplansanticipateproceduresthatotheragenciesmayimplementthatwillimpactthe evacuationofthegeneralpublicfromtheNCRduringacatastrophicevent(e.g.,theclosureof certainroadssurroundingkeyfacilities). 4. Stateandlocalemergencymanagementagenciesandotherstakeholdershavedeveloped,or aredeveloping,coordinatedplansforcatastrophicincidentresponse. 5. OPMdevelops,maintainsand,whennecessary,implementsemergencydismissalorclosure proceduresapplicabletofederalexecutivebranchagencieswithintheNCR.
