Analysis of an Emergency Operations Center

The objective of the research paper is to conduct an  analysis of an Emergency Operations Center at one level of government  during a disaster. The research paper consists of a title page,  introduction, body, conclusion, and reference page. 

The paper will  consist of nine pages, including a title page and reference page.  The paper will analyze, describe, and evaluate three of the following  criteria: 

1. the specific type of disaster (natural or man-made), the  affected area, and vulnerable populations within the demographic area;  

2. the design and location of the Emergency Operations Center (EOC); 

3.  the operations structure (Incident Command System); 

4. the interface  between the federal, state, and local governments; 

5. how media  relations are conducted to disperse disaster information to the public;  6. the modes of communication within the EOC and between the public and  private sectors;

7. how stress management was facilitated; 

8. the  positive and negative performance of the EOC; 

9. what improvements would  you suggest and in what specific areas; and 

10. whether or not the  emergency preparedness plan is effective for the hazard.
