The City encompasses approximately 29 square miles Kent is the fourth largest city within King County and the seventh largest city in the State of Washington with a resident population of over 85,000 and a daytime population of over 100,000 Kent is strategically located between both the Ports of Seattle and Tacoma, and has rail and truck transportation corridors that pass through the City There are also approximately 100 Hazardous Materials facilities that fall under the Emergency Planning and Community-Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) The Olympic Pipeline also runs through the City King County is divided into three distinct zones: Zone 1, 3 and 5 The City of Kent has established itself as a leader in Zone 3 which includes 16 cities The Director of Emergency Management for the City of Kent chairs the Zone 3 Emergency Managers Committee A disaster event is likely to be a regional event Kent must be able to coordinate with regional partners Washington State EMD, King County Office of Emergency Management and surrounding cities and jurisdictions To respond to emergency events and disasters an Emergency Coordination Center (ECC) has been established The mission of the Emergency Coordination Center (ECC) is to provide the infrastructure for coordinating requests for assistance and resources in response to an incident affecting citywide, zone, county and state operations. Supporting the ECC and carrying out the responsibilities outlined in the City of Kent Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) each city department operates a Department Operations Center (DOC) Outlined in the CEMP is each DOCs responsibility Ten DOCs are located throughout the city It is critical for effective disaster operations that each DOC is able to communicate and share information with the ECC and other DOCs. Currently the system for information sharing, tracking and processing resource requests is not timely or efficient Information is gathered by the ECC through the Message Center The Message Center uses a symposium phone system with five phones in addition to receiving faxes, email and radio communications Every message is hand written and distributed to sections within the ECC. Information is also tracked by entering the same information that is on the message form into large display boards in the ECC For documentation purposes that message information is also entered into a computer database Status boards can only be viewed by those physically in the planning section or by situation reports that are only given daily The dynamics of a major event require more of a real time system There is not a way for information to be simultaneously distributed and viewed by ECC representatives, DOC staff and outside agencies/jurisdictions Resource requests and disaster response are delayed by the inefficient documentation process In 2003, the City of Kent conducted a full scale exercise in conjunction with Top Off II. The after action report identified the need to improve message flow and information sharing. The City of Kent would like to implement a system that would allow users to share information and view up-to- date situation status WebEOC is the solution for the City of Kent to improve emergency operations and be interoperable with regional partners and agencies such as King County and Washington State EMD Section 2: Project Description The City of Kent Emergency Management Division is applying for grant funds to "strengthen emergency response, mitigation, preparedness and coordination" EMPAG-SFY 07 Page 11 of 17 City of Kent EMD E07-079 • Attachment A With funds received from this grant request Kent Emergency Management will enhance disaster coordination and response by purchasing and implementing the use of WebEOC software WebEOC is online, interactive software that provides real-time communications and updates for emergency events A large number of users can log-on to the system from any location Kent Emergency Management will work with a consultant that will provide the WebEOC software in a package that includes onsite installation and training We will also purchase the necessary infrastructure to operate the system. The recommended system requirements include two computer servers and operating system software We will also purchase 10 laptop computers to be used in the ECC Four laptops will be committed to the operations section Critical disciplines include Police, Fire, Public Works and Parks The planning section would need four computers for. the planning section chief, situation unit leader, resource unit leader and documentation unit One laptop would be used by the finance section and the Mayor's Leadership Team. City employees that are involved in disaster operations would be identified to attend a training session on the new system Our partners in Zone 3 would be invited and encouraged to attend training as well WebEOC software is able to make a seamless connection to other systems A key step in this project is establishing a connection with King County and Washington State EMD City of Kent Information Technologies staff will install servers and provide continued system support. Section 3: Performance Measures Our goal is to improve methods of resource requests and tracking, information sharing and communications by implementing WebEOC To document the success of this project we will follow the attached work plan Critical steps to completing the project include. Installation of computer servers and operating software Installation of WebEOC software Purchase of laptop computers for the ECC Conducting training sessions with employees that will staff the ECC and DOCs Activities will be documented in an activity log that identifies each task and the date the task is completed. To complete the project, Emergency Management staff will design and conduct an exercise that will test the system and give staff on opportunity to use the system from various locations Section 4: Impact This award would have a profound impact on emergency operations within our City and beyond It is a long term solution to improve internal and external communications The labor intensive process of hand writing messages and documenting would be no longer necessary. Resource requests, information and disaster situation would be shared and viewed simultaneously by DOCs and ECC representatives Disaster responders would have access to up-to-the-minute information Not only would WebEOC be of great benefit to the City of Kent, but the region as well. Kent is the second largest warehouse center on the west coast with multiple valuable resources available Both King County and Washington State Emergency Management Division use WebEOC for their emergency operations The City of Kent will be able to integrate a system that is already in use by these agencies and other jurisdictions to assist in fulfilling resource requests EMPAG-SFY 07 Page 12 of 17 City of Kent EMD E07-079 Attachment A Section 5: Governance Applicant Agent: Jim Schneider, Director of Emergency Management Alternative Applicant Agent- Dominic Marzano, Emergency Manager This project will be coordinated by Kent Emergency Management staff Program Manager Brian Felczak and Program Coordinator Kimberly Behymer. Brian Felczak has been with the Kent Fire Department for over 25 years, the last six in Emergency Management He is tasked with overall maintenance and operations of the Emergency Coordination Center Brian developed and maintains the Emergency Coordination Center Operations Guide Kimberly Behymer has been with Kent Emergency Management for five years Her duties include staff support to the ECC and assisting with overall maintenance She also developed and maintains the Message Center procedures Both Brian and Kimberly have completed the Emergency Management Professional Development Series training courses Section 6: Sustainability/Maintainability This project will improve our ability to timely and effectively communicate citywide from the time the system is implemented The effects of this project will continue well after the grant period. WebEOC will operate on a system owned and maintained by the City of Kent The licenses are a one time purchase and do not require an annual fee After implementation is complete, the system will be fully integrated into our emergency operations procedures and benefit the City of Kent, King County, Washington State EMD and surrounding jurisdiction when ever there is an emergency response.
