1.9 Plan Development and Maintenance
This Plan implements the emergency preparedness authority conveyed
to the President by the CSU Chancellor. The planning in this document
has been coordinated with local government, state agencies, and
with the CSU System. The CSU Office of Risk Management acts as the
clearinghouse for all CSU emergency planning, in coordination with
State OES. This Plan is reviewed and recommended to the President
for approval by the Vice President for Administration. The campus
Emergency Preparedness Coordinator maintains this Plan. Changes
will be made, as warranted and major revisions will be published
when required.
AUTHORITIES AND REFERENCES
Cal State Fullerton's emergency planning must be consistent with
applicable statutes and administrative orders. Cal State Fullerton
must ensure that all personnel assigned specific responsibilities
in support of this Plan are adequately trained and prepared to assume
those responsibilities.
The authorities and references section, gives specific information
located in Part III, which establishes: 1) the legal basis (statutes,
ordinances, executive orders, regulations, proclamations) for emergency
operations; and 2) the basis for delegation of emergency authority,
i.e., enabling measures sufficient to ensure that specific emergency-related
legal authorities can be exercised by elected or appointed leadership
or their designated successors.
The State's Emergency Plan, promulgated in accordance with
the provisions of the Emergency Services Act, provides statewide
authority and responsibility, and describes the functions and operations
of government at all levels during extraordinary emergencies. Sections
8567, 8587 and 8614 (a) provide the Governor with the authority
to direct Executive Departments of the State to support such planning
and preparedness and other emergency activities. Executive Order
No. W-9-91 directs each agency to be responsible for "emergency
planning, preparedness and training". Each agency shall establish
a line of succession "and train its employees to properly perform
emergency assignments."
The State's Emergency Plan uses a standard management approach
allowing for individual plans of State agencies, to interact effectively.
The CSU System is part of this effort. The Governor's Executive
Order D-25-83 calls for the CSU to develop, maintain and support
emergency planning and operations. The CSU Chancellor promulgated
Executive Order No. 696, giving to the campus Presidents the responsibility
to implement a multi-hazard emergency preparedness program. This
Plan is, therefore, considered to be an extension of the State Emergency
Plan.
Administrative Orders, prepared under the authority of the Governor's
Executive Order W-9-91, expand upon and consolidate the emergency
assignments of State agencies. CSU System-wide planning delegates
authority and assigns emergency preparedness responsibilities to
campuses.
Part Three of this Plan contains a complete inventory of all Federal,
State, local, CSU and CSUF statutory authority, as well as planning
documents such as Administrative Orders, Standby Orders and Executive
Orders.
