RTIPP P RE -M EETING
Agenda Explain concepts introduced during Preparedness Integration Process – Provide additional resources – Introduce Core Capabilities Assessment Tool on WebEOC TEEX presentation on RTIPP course Answer questions
Preparedness Integration Cycle Section One: Overview Section Two: How it Works Section Three: RTIPP Section Four: Summary
OVERVIEW Section One
ID Threats/ Hazards THIRA E xercise AAR P lanning O rganization E quipment Training Revise POETE Improved Capability(ies) Annual Gap Analysis Model Core Capability Assessment EMPG/HSGP Assemble Assessment Team
Overview Expand Preparedness Report down to county level – Use guidance already available from FEMA in order to ensure the process is consistent throughout the state. THIRA State Preparedness Report Grant Guidance Core Capabilities – To increase public safety capabilities across Indiana.
Reason Process is a tool to examine preparedness – Develop high definition picture of capabilities Results can be used to justify grant funding – Show return on investment – Ensures limited resources are being used responsibly Tracks annual capability changes
Data Uses Statewide threats and hazards Statewide capability strengths and gaps Social vulnerability analysis – Helps determine allocation of resources post-disaster
Benefits County-driven Same standards apply to all levels of government Justifies requests for personnel, equipment, training, and exercises Clearer picture of state and local capabilities – Can aggregate data Can quantify improvement in capabilities – Actual data vs “feel good” stories Example Data Only
Integrates Federal Guidance More efficient process National Preparedness Goal Hazard Mitigation Plan (THIRA) Gap Analysis (Core Capabilities Assessment) TEPW / TEP (RTIPP) Jurisdictional Profile Review Grant Justification
HOW IT WORKS (THIRA, CORE CAPABILITY ASSESSMENT, RTIPP) Section Two
1.Assemble Training and Exercise Assessment Team. 2.Attend RTIPP Pre-meeting for information and resources. 3.Complete THIRA and Core Capabilities Assessment. 4.Attend RTIPP course. 5.Aggregate Data 6.Submit 2016 Grant Proposal How It All Works Step 1: Assemble Assessment Team Step 2: Initial RTIPP Meeting Step 3: THIRA/Core Capabilities Assessment Step 4: RTIPP Course/ TEPW Step 5: Aggregate Data Step 6: 2016 Grant Proposals

Threats and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (THIRA) 1.Identify hazards 2.Give hazards context descriptions 3.Establish Capability Targets 4.Resource requirements
County THIRA Template Step 1: Identify Hazard Step 2: Context Description Core Capability: Step 3: Capability Target Step 4: Resource Requirement ResourcesNumber Required
County THIRA Template Step 1: Identify Hazard Flood Step 2: Context Description For 18 of the last 22 Springs, the Wabash River has caused moderate to severe flooding affecting the southwest portion of the county. This affects approximately 200 homes and 35 businesses. Yearly financial losses range from $250,000 to $10 million Core Capability: Mass Care Services Step 3: Capability Target At least 48 hours out from a flood event, Hoosier County EMA will establish mass feeding and housing shelters coordinated by the Red Cross. At least 24 hours prior to the event, Hoosier County EMA will provide access to evacuation assistance to access and functional needs residents in at-risk areas. Step 4: Resource Requirement ResourcesNumber Required American Red Cross Personnel15 Cots / Bedding / Hygiene SuppliesFor up to 500 people for 7 days MealsUp to 1000 people for 7 days Generator (25kW)1 Vans / Busses / Ambulance5 vans / 2 busses / 2 ambulances

Core Capabilities Assessment 1.Rate Current Capability a.Rate your jurisdiction’s preparedness for each core capability by comparing resource requirements for each hazard identified in the THIRA to your jurisdiction’s current capabilities 2.Provide Context for Capability Rating (Free text area next to each Core Capability) a.Explain how you arrived at this rating

Core Capabilities (7 out of 31 from FEMA): Planning Public Information and Warning Operational Coordination Intelligence and Information Sharing Situational Assessment Threat and Hazard Identification Operational Communication Solution Area, based on FIVE areas for each capability: Planning, organization, equipment, training, and exercise (POETE) Priority: Priority determines what capabilities are most important to the jurisdiction; ranking from low-to-high priority.
Self-Assessment: Department heads from each county will be responsible for assessing the POETE criteria individually for each capability from Zero to Five; Zero meaning that there is no capability in an individual POETE criteria and Five meaning that an individual POETE criteria is fully capable. Supporting Information: This space gives county officials a chance to state why they feel they assess themselves this way. This information will also be used during the RTIPP class to identify capability gaps.

SUMMARY Section Four
Increase capabilities at your level Shows your strengths & areas for improvement Expands preparedness reporting – Develop high definition picture of state & local capabilities Overall Benefits
County Level Benefits Provides justification for grants – Utilize for grants outside of DHS Allows counties to identify their own priorities – Flexibility if priorities change Tracks progress from year to year – Shows return on investment Data has many uses – Justifies projects and purchases to elected officials
Next Steps Identify and assemble your county assessment teams – Jurisdictional profile review Complete THIRA and Core Capabilities Assessment – Due to Jesse Minnick 2 weeks prior to RTIPP course Attend district RTIPP course
