| Popis: | The hurricane plan developed by the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District and approved by vote of the Board of Commissioners is presented. The plan is intended to facilitate prompt resumption of services after a tropical cyclone (tropical storm or hurricane) and to give direction and instructions to District staff who evacuate before a storm makes landfall. Specific procedures are documented for before and after storms, including communication, preparation of buildings and vehicles, and evacuation. The need for food and water for staff immediately after a storm is specifically mentioned in the plan. The plan is composed of five main sections: general preparedness, Lower Keys procedures, Middle Keys procedures, Upper Keys procedures, and aerial operations procedures. Also included is a section covering satellite telephone operation and a list of telephone contacts for local government and law enforcement agencies. An addendum details the District's policy for compensation for public emergency response work so all employees are aware of how they will be paid during the storm recovery period. |
