Update to Fire State Hazard Plan
The State Emergency Management Committee have released version 3.0 of the Fire State Hazard Plan.
Whilst the changes have little bearing on the majority of our operations, it is worth spending some time to skim through the document, taking particular note of the Response section.
It is worth reinforcing the Strategic Control Priorities as defined in the plan:
The State EM Policy identifies strategic control priorities for emergency response across all hazards. These priorities are not hierarchical; however, protection and preservation of life must be paramount when developing incident action plans that identify the priority roles and actions for the emergency management response to fire, where there are concurrent risks or competing priorities.
The strategic control priorities are:
- protection and preservation of life: this is the fundamental overarching priority for the State, and includes:
- safety of emergency services personnel
- safety of community members including at risk community members and visitors/tourists located within the incident area
- community warnings and information
- protection of critical infrastructure and community assets
- protection of residential property
- protection of assets supporting individual livelihood and community financial sustainability
- protection of environmental and heritage values.
Controlling Agencies should also consider the potential impact on cultural values and animal welfare from fire.
The latest Fire State Hazard Plan is available online.
