Disaster Management

The goals of the Emergency Preparedness Council are as follows:

• Advise the Disaster Management Department and Clackamas County Board of County Commissioners in the development of activities, strategies and priorities to achieve disaster preparedness within the boundaries of Clackamas County.
• Promote disaster management initiatives and activities. Participate in community education and engagement.
• Advocate for policy and system changes that improve the disaster preparedness in Clackamas County. Optional activities could include providing oral or written testimony, helping to identify partners of support for preparedness, and participating in legislative activities.
• Strengthen intergovernmental collaboration and enhance collaboration between governments and partners on an ongoing basis.
• Develop strategies to enhance collaboration among governmental bodies and the general public.

These documents are provided for emergency responders to use in case of a large disaster. These agreements were developed by Clackamas County Disaster Management and the Clackamas County Fire Defense Board. These agreements allow agencies to borrow and lend fire agency personnel in the case of a disaster where transportation routes are impacted. Stranded workers from various fire districts may report to alternate fire districts or the Clackamas County Emergency Operations Center if they can’t get to the agency they work for.
