“Increased Readiness Operations includes overall local plans for operations in periods of heightened risk (e.g., hurricane watch, or international crisis). Where the locality must bring its EOC, public shelters, or other facilities to full operational status during a crisis, or conduct accelerated training, the IR plan shall spell out who/what where. See: Standards Four and Five [Standards for Local Civil Preparedness]. Standard Four describes requirements for crisis shelter marking and stocking plans, as part of overall local Increased- Readiness plans. IR plans for periods of severe international crisis cover general operations to improve readiness, in both high-risk and low-risk jurisdictions, applicable primarily to readiness to protect the population in-place. Should States or localities be advised that operations are contemplated for crisis relocation of population from high-risk areas…, crisis relocation plans would be implemented”.
