Emergency Organizational Structu re <br />ICS and EOC organizational structures develop in a modular fashion based on an incident's size, <br />complexity, and hazard environment. Responsibility for establishing and expanding ICS <br />organizations and EOC teams ultimately rests with the lncident Commander (or Unified Command) <br />and EOC director. Responsibility for functions that subordinates perform defaults to the next higher <br />supervisory position until the supervisor delegates those responsibilities. As incident complexity <br />increases, organizations expand as the lncident Commander, Unified Command, EOC director, and <br />subordinate supervisors delegate additional functional responsibilities. <br />Maintaining an appropriate span of control helps ensure an effective and efficient incident <br />management operation. lt enables management to direct and supervise subordinates and to <br />communicate with and manage all resources under their control. The optimal span of control for <br />incident management is one supervisor to five subordinates; however, effective incident <br />management frequently necessitates ratios significantly different from this. <br />AiFfiSF Fssoursg <br />Suptort <br />Commt <br />lrnttLaadeR6*auicsi <br />Daaurnitildio|l <br />lblEatilmlrrio{tfunr <br />e$o.ritrfhrqFt*nB& <br />flllaniirE <br />6t3 <br />,,,1r;1.t,ii <br />,..1:ii iii i. : I r , r I L I rtl iii.r ,ld <br />rl; <br />November 2024 1 BASIC PLAN Page 28 of 63
