Key Tenets of EmergencyManagement in SC
• All phases of responding to an emergency begin, occur and end locally
• The authorities and responsibilities remain with the local officials
• Assistance from the next level only takes place after all resources are exhausted or exceeded
• State and Federal agencies are there to assist, not to take control

Local Emergency Response
Counties and municipalities responding to the emergency should utilize internal resources & resources of other public entities prior to requesting outside vendor resources.
Public Entities may secure resources via statewide term, your procurement contracts, or via other emergency purchasing procedures authorized by your local code.
Procurement operations are an integral part of disaster response.

State of Emergency
When the Governor issues an Executive Order declaring a “State of Emergency” for a possible event:
• The South Carolina Emergency Operations Plan is placed in effect• The SC National Guard can be placed on state active duty• Licensing and registration requirements for property protection
and essential services may be suspended• FEMA is authorized to provide emergency protective measures
assistance
• 2015 Severe Flood:• 44 truckloads of water• Swift water rescue teams• Engineers for Dam assessments• River gauges
• 2016 Hurricane Matthew:• “Alpha Pack” with bottled water, meals, infant and toddler kits, cots, blankets, etc.• Engineers for Dam assessments• Veterinary medical support services
Requires 25% state cost share

Internal Order Number
Upon the activation of the South Carolina Emergency Operations Plan (SCEOP) an Internal Order number is requested and established within the State Accounting system. (2015 Flood “98000008”; 2016 Hurricane Matthew “98000009”)
Used by all state agencies to identify all costs related to the event.
Why?
• Accounts for all costs so the state can readily identify and report.
• Makes it easier if a disaster Presidential Declaration is declared for FEMA reimbursement claim.
ESF 7 Initial Procurement Actions
ESF-7 notifies State wide term/agency contract holders of heightened emergency status & potential use of contracted goods & services.
ESF-7 responsibilities include contacting potential sources of supply (Federal GSA, State, and Local Government or private vendors) and placing orders to include deliveries and documenting transactions.
Activate Memorandums of Understanding (MOU), Blanket Purchase Orders (BPO), and Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) that may be used with vendors to supply items that are time-sensitive or in short supply & would be necessary during emergency response.
