  13. DEOC • Receives, analyzes, and displays information about the incident to enable CDC leadership decision-making. • Finds, prioritizes, deploys, and tracks critical CDC resources. • Enhances interagency and internal communication, collaboration, and coordination.

  14. Activation Modes • Watch - Monitoring Mode - continual monitoring of potential events. • Alert- Limited Activation - All primary, or lead, and support functions are notified of the situation. • Response- Full Scale Activation – all primary and support functions are implemented; personnel deployed as required.

  15. AWARENESS/ RESPONSE CDC Response System - Tiered Phases HHS Response/ RL 0 - 5 • Response • Lead CIO/ ATSDR/ DEOC • Full DEOC staffing • Deploy CDC/ATSDR assets • Monitor Incident • Info. Coordination/ Communication • On-Scene: • HHS and CDC/ATSDR operational contacts • Team members integrated with ICS and report through SERT/ On-scene contacts • Alert • DEOC Director: • Lead CIO/ ATSDR Pending • PATs Assembled • Contacting agencies • Planning • Deployment preparation • Alerting required staff • Situational awareness Watch DEOC Director DEOC Core Staff Incident Awareness CDC Triggers

  16. What is ICS for CDC/ATSDR? • The model tool for the command, control, and coordination of resources across CoCs/CIOs • A management tool consisting of procedures for organizing personnel, facilities, equipment and communications at a central location with a permanent staff. • Utilizes a unified command system and decision groups to support decision making process

  17. ICS for CDC/ATSDR is NOT: • A means to wrestle control away from CIOs that participate in the response according to program roles • A way to subvert the normal chain of command within the agency.
