Their companies have supported the New Hanover County Emergency Management program by contributing significant funds to acquire the equipment necessary to implement the audio interrupt warning system. The system as with all the other means of community warning will be coordinated by the New Hanover County Department of Emergency Services with support and activation by the New Hanover County 911 Communications Center. The system will serve all communities, municipalities and .agencies within New Hanover County and the City of Wilmington for life safety incidents according to the procedures that follow. \PLANS\SOP.TV 2 November, 1989 The .agencies listed below agree to suppbrt ~he following procedure for the activation of the Cable Audio Interrupt Warning System.

Since each warning system is not 100% effective in reaching the general public all of the systems must be used if total notification of the community is required. The Cable Audio Interrupt Warning System is activated by calling a secure telephone number and using a touch tone phone switching computerized cable TV "head end" equipment creating a blank screen and delivering a voice warning message thru the phone path to the subscribers television. The cable equipment will then switch to the programming already in progress. The advantage of the Cable Audio Interrupt Warning System is that an emergency message is disseminated over all channels as opposed to an Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) notification which is only carried by local TV and Radio Stations. New Hanover County does not have a county-wide outdoor siren notification system thereby increasing the need to enhance existing forms of notification to the general public. II. Scope of Operations The Cable Audio Interrupt Warning System has proven itself across the country as a significant and cost effective means of warning the public. The system has been provided by local service companies. Since local government is essentially a third party to the system, careful and responsible use of the system is required. In order to protect the system's' use the telephone numbers and access codes shall be maintained by the 911 Center, NHC Department of Emergency Services and Carolina Beach Police Chief. Parties authorized to request activation will be noted in Section IV. Abuse, non-emergency information or excessive testing during peak cable programming times \..;rill cause customer ill-will and reflect upon the cable operator. This situation must be avoided. Maj or emergencies or mini disasters wi thin the community most likely will not warrant activation of the system when the event has already occurred. The system is primarily for communicating immediate warning information or life safety evacuations. \PLANS\SOP.TV 4 November, 1989 The system is NOT to be used for things such as, routine street closing, school closings, interruption or construction of utilities and services, traffic delays, bridge closings, etc. Any event which is usually conveyed thru local media (radio, tv) and timely media releases should not be released thru the Cable Audio Interrupt Warning System. . The Cable Interrupt Warning System is not a short-cut for using current established methods of disseminating information to the general public. The system shall not be a substitute for EBS, door to door notification, vehicle alert notification or other systems currently in place. It should be noted that improper use of the system could create confusion as to where to tune for emergency information, or generate unnecessary bystanders at the scene of an emergency event.

Citv Governments Provide resources for Search and Rescue missions inside the City and New Hanover County as needed. C. New Hanover Countv The SAR Incident Commander is responsible for SAR operations involving all ground, lakes, river areas, intracoastal waterways and designated coastal areas within their political jurisdiction. Areas will include National and State Forest Areas, State Parks and State waters, areas controlled by the US Army Corps of Engineers in which concurrent political jurisdiction presently exists. US Forest, State Forest Service and State Parks and US Army Corps of Engineers personnel will function as SAR supporting agencies unless otherwise tasked within this Plan. Direct coordination between agencies is authorized as designated within this Plan or as negotiated in Mutual Aid agreements contiguous cities and counties. ~ ,- D. State Government Functions as a SAR supporting agency. State government assists local government in planning, training, and obtaining resources. It may; however, assume operational control of any SAR mission at the request of the responsible official or whenever the situation involves a multi-county area and the Governor directs control due to the magnitude and severity of the operation. A prime example of this would be SAR operations conducted after a major hurricane onslaught affecting several counties and cities. E. Federal Government In accordance with the National SAR Plan and Mutual agreement between the State of North Carolina and the ARRS, the AFRCC, and CGRCC will exercise operational control over all air and sea SAR missions. State and Local government assume the supporting role at the request of AFRCC or CGRCC. Also National Park Service controls all SAR operations within their jurisdiction and coordinates support by Local, State, and Federal agencies. VII.

ATTACHMENT 1 APPENDIX 1 ANNEX N SAR ORGANIZATIONAL RESOURCES I. General Shown below is a description of those resources unique to SAR operations or would more probable by employed in such operation. Training resources are shown at Appendix 2, this Annex. II. Aerospace Rescue and Recovery Service This agency of the US Air Force operates the AFRCC for the coordination and control of military and civilian SAR Mexico. It functions, by agreement, as the SAR Coordinator for all air searches for missing or downed aircraft within the inland areas of North Carolina. The AFRCC may be tasked directly by local authorities through their appointed SAR Coordinators. It will provide the necessary resources to conduct the search, and normally through the Civil Air Patrol, control "on-scene" activities through a Mission Coordinator. Extraction of victims or ground search for survivors is normally a responsibility of local government. However; AFRCC will assume a supporting role and assist with resources not available to the local authorities. Point of Contact: AFRCC, Scott Air Force Base 1-800-851-3051 Reimbursement: None Required III. U.S. COAST GUARD, FIFTH DISTRICT This organization operates the CGRCC for the coordination and control of military and civilian SAR activities within the Norfolk Maritime Sub-Region. It functions as the SAR Coordinator for all search and rescue missions along the coast of North Carolina including the contiguous sounds and inland waterway. Coast Guard assistance may be requested direct to CGRCC or any available Coast Guard Station by anyone knowledgeable of a SAR incident along the coast of North Carolina. The CGRCC will provide the necessary resources and control organization to accomplish the entire SAR effort. Point of Contact:OCRCC, Portsmouth, Va. 804-398-6231 Collect Reimbursement: None Required IV. OTHER FEDERAL MILITARY ORGANIZATIONS AND INSTALLATIONS The several military organizations and installations within North Carolina offer practically unlimited SAR resources on a non-interference with mission restriction. DOC policy also calls for State and Local resources by used first. ; Normal tasking is through the AFRCC and CGRCC. However, the military may respond to direct requests from State or Local government in case of a life and death situation. Use of the AFRCC is considered the best option for State and Local government to receive federal military assistance for SAR operations. A. Point of Contact B.

PURPOSE To provide a resource list of available training to State and Local government to ensure an acceptable level of Search and Rescue (SAR) preparedness. II. SITUATION A. Trained and knowledgeable personnel are essential at each level of government to ensure early initiation of a SAR mission, effective control of that mission, and integration of volunteer, State and Federal assistance. B. Training for SAR operations should be conducted on a continuing basis for all appointed SAR Coordinators and designated Mission Coordinators to assure a capability to execute missions set forth by the overall SAR plan. C. Training for SAR proficiency is a management responsibility at each level of government; however, the Division of Emergency Management, DCC&PS, will be responsive to local government to assist in identifying appropriate SAR training and coordinating that training with other volunteer, State or Federal agencies and/or sponsoring such training for program enhancement. III. SEARCH AND RESCUE TRAINING PROGRAMS A. Manaqinq the Search Function Course.
