<br />21SHSP Sustainment Work Plan
<br />Kittitas County Sheriffs Office
<br />lnvestment #1: WA SHSP Sustainment
<br />AMOUNT s32,97L
<br />The State is divided into 9 Regions which differ in geography (marine to desert), major industry (large business to agricultural),
<br />and population (dense urban settings to rural). Each region develops projects to address their specific risks and hazards which
<br />sustain previously built capabilities or close identified gaps. Most initiatives can be tied back to building regional capability to
<br />respond and recover and be in a state of readiness should a natural or human-caused catastrophic incident occur.
<br />Gaps identified in:
<br />-Planning: ESF plans are out of date, LEP plans are incomplete, more robust COOp
<br />-Operational Comms: Aging equipment and infrastructure, changes in technology and the inability to keep pace, mountainous
<br />terrain; amateur radio capability; differing responder radio technologies
<br />-lnterdiction & Disruptlon: Lack of equipment
<br />-Public Information & Warning: More people sign up for emergency notifications, translations for emergency messaging, lack
<br />of personnel, in person training, and engagement with marginalized populations
<br />-cybersecurity: Resilience strengthened, training, and formal capabilities assessments
<br />-Mass SAR Operationsl Train responders to the Structural Collapse Tech Level, lack of equipment and PPE, maintain equipment
<br />and training
<br />-Operational Coord: Training on new plans, partner and build relationships, not all jurisdictions have necessary equipment,
<br />map and coordinate plans, document procedures and update plans, increase frequency of contacts, inadequate supply of
<br />radios for rural community response
<br />-On'Scene security, Protection, & tE: Aging and/or expiring equipment and PPE and/or insufficient for surge capacity use,
<br />specialized tactical team equipment
<br />'Screening, Search, & Detection: Better equipment to improve response quality and times, very little or no formal capabilities
<br />-Mass Care Servlces: Lack of sheltering supplies, plans minimal
<br />-Access ControflD Verificatlon: Swipe card entry doors, standard credentials for EOC personnel, plans or procedures for
<br />credentialing on a large-scale
<br />'Supply Chain lntegrity & Security: More local suppliers for critical needed materials, PPE supply, exercise standing up CpODs
<br />-lntelligence & lnformation Sharing: Limited resources and lack of staff, challenge to build and sustain this core capability
<br />-Threats & Hazards ldentification: Lack of resources to conduct an assessment
<br />PROJECI #1 SHSP Region 7 Homelond Security Project (tnvestment 7, Project 7)
<br />Region 7 will address priorities based on regionally identified gaps. The region is challenged by persistent capability gaps which
<br />include: Public lnformation and Warning due to lack of ability to communicate with communities before, during, and after an
<br />incident and lntelligence and lnformation Sharing due to a lack of equipment for interoperability. The region will also focus on
<br />sustaining and enhancing capabilities, which include: Public lnformation and Warning by maintaining the ability to
<br />communicate with citizens and providing education, Operational Communications through equipment to coordinate with first
<br />responders and partners as well as training and equipment for EOC operations, lnterdiction and Disruption through training
<br />and equipping specialty teams, and lntelligence and lnformation Sharing through training and equipment for EOC operations,
<br />and Screening, Search, and Detection through screening, surveillance, and detection during large public events.
<br />To address capability gaps and sustain current capabilities the region will be investing in organization, equipmenl and training.
<br />Activities will include:
<br />- Public lnformation and Warning: Maintain the alert and warning systems to communicate critical, timely, and effectjve
<br />information to the public and reduce the negative impacts of an incident.
<br />- Operational Communications: Maintain a well-equipped EOC environment for an effective response to protect the citizens
<br />during an emergency incident,
<br />- lnterdiction and Disruption: Continue to provide updated training and equipment for special teams to effectively mitigate loss
<br />of life to team member and citizens during an act of terrorism.
<br />- lntelligence and lnformation Sharing: Provide training to enhance staffs current capabilities during an activation.
<br />- Screening, Search, and Detection: Sustain and enhance current capabilities through training and/or equipment purchases and
<br />screen for potential bad actors or terrorists entering critical infrastructure to aid in mitigating a potential act of terrorism.
<br />The funding priorities will support the region in their effort to focus on addressing identified capability gaps related to
