Michigan Hazard Mitigation Success Stories:
Outstanding accomplishments in reducing loss of life, property
and environmental damage associated with hazards in Michigan
Provide an organizational and operational framework for the State of Michigan to assess the need for, request, receive, and distribute disaster relief supplies, equipment, and other materiel and technical assistance (generically called "commodities") necessary to respond to and recover from natural and human-caused disasters and emergencies, including acts of terrorism. The efficient and timely procurement and distribution of needed disaster commodities, particularly in widespread and/or severe disasters or other catastrophic incidents, will help the State and local governments in meeting the full range of short-term and/or long-term recovery and basic life sustainment needs of the affected population.
Provide an organizational and operational framework for the State of Michigan to assist affected local jurisdictions in managing a debris operation subsequent to a debris generating disaster. The efficient and rapid management of disaster debris will help to protect the health and safety of the affected population, minimize threats to the environment, and ensure that critical response and recovery activities can proceed in a timely and unencumbered manner.
The plan developed and continuously maintained by the Emergency Management and Homeland Security Division, Department of State Police (MSP/EMHSD), pursuant to 1976 PA 390, as amended, for the purpose of coordinating the emergency management and homeland security activities of prevention, mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery within the state. The MEMP consists of two introductory sections (i.e., Planning Preliminaries; Emergency Management System), eight Emergency Support Functions (ESFs), 23 Disaster-Specific Procedures, and three primary Support Plans (i.e., Evacuation and Mass Shelter Support; Animal Care Support; Recovery Support). The MEMP is supported by other state-level, function-specific plans, including but not limited to those that address: 1) continuity of government and continuity of operations; 2) disaster logistics management; 3) disaster debris management; 4) disaster donations management; 5) hazard mitigation; 6) emergency repatriation; 7) damage assessment; and 8) mass fatality management.
