Attachment D <br />WORK PLAN <br />FY 2021 Emergency Management Performance Grant <br />[�Eme%ency Management Organization: Kittitas County Sheriffs Office <br />The purpose of EMPG is to assist with the enhancement, sustainment and improvement of state, local, and tribal <br />emergency management programs. Activities conducted using EMPG funding should relate directly to the five <br />elements of emergency management: prevention, protection, response, recovery, and mitigation. Washington <br />State does not require a specific number of activities to receive EMPG funding. However, there are required <br />capabilities that must be sustained in order to remain eligible for EMPG funding, including but not limited to the <br />ability to communicate and warn, educate the public, plan, train, exercise, and be NIMS compliant. The Work Plan <br />delineates the Emergency Management Organization's emergency management program planning and priority <br />focus for this grant cycle (to include EMPG grant and local funds). <br />DHS-FEMA-EMPG-FY21 Page 32 of 35 Kittitas County Sherifrs Office EM, E22-217 <br />Communications and Warning <br />Primary Core Capability <br />Public Information and Warning <br />Secondary Core Capability <br />Community Resilience <br />Build or Sustain <br />Sustaining/Maintaining <br />WORK PLANNED <br />IDENTIFIED GAP/NEED <br />ANTICIPATED PROJECT IMPACT <br />Renew Everbridge, mass notification <br />This is a sustainment project that <br />This allows the county and <br />system <br />supports the County's <br />municipalities to be able to send <br />Comprehensive Emergency <br />emergency alerts out to the citizens <br />Management Plan: <br />quickly in the event of an <br />A.
