Emergency Planning Guide for Utilities, Second Edition by Samuel Mullen Pdf

An increase in major natural disasters—and the growing number of damaging events involving gas, electric, water, and other utilities—has led to heightened concerns about utility operations and public safety. Due to today's complex, compliance-based environment, utility managers and planners often find it difficult to plan for the action needed to help ensure organization-wide resilience and meet consumer expectations during these incidents. Emergency Planning Guide for Utilities, Second Edition offers a working guide that presents new and field-tested approaches to plan development, training, exercising, and emergency program management. The book will help utility planners, trainers, and responders—as well as their vendors and suppliers—to more effectively prepare for damaging events and improve the level of the utility’s resilience. It also focuses on planning needed in the National Incident Management System and ICS environment that many utilities are embracing going forward. In doing so, utilities will be able to improve the customer experience while reducing the impact that damaging events have on the utility’s infrastructure, people, and resources.

The type of events now being contemplated... are different. When an event occurs that is so rare and damaging that it outstrips preparations, plans, and social and material resources, severe problems arise. These new threats can include terrorism, sabotage and cyberattacks. Some argue that the tenets of conventional emergency planning and management are no longer sufficient to protect water utilities from the range and nature of threats... executive summary.
