of actions, resource lists, etc.
II. Post Event
1. Local Agency quickly assesses estimated extent of damage and availability of local
resources to respond.
2. If it is apparent that outside resources will be needed to effectively deal with the
emergency, promptly authorize local official to request Proclamation of Local
Emergency and, if warranted, request State of Emergency Proclamation through the
Operational Area Emergency Operation Center.
3. Upon proclamation of local emergency, request mutual aid assistance from Operational
Area Public Works Mutual Aid Coordinator according to pre -established procedures in
WebEOC.
4. Ensure request is specific as to type and quantity of resources needed, when to report,
who to report to, how long needed, type of work to be performed.

Checklist
Attachment B
San Diego County Operational Area
Public Works Mutual Aid Agreement Procedures Guide
I. PURPOSE
The purpose of this Procedures Guide is to provide parties to the Public Works
Agreement with a practical set of guidelines on how to effectively provide and receive
public works assistance. The terms of the agreement shall govern in the event there is any
actual or apparent conflict between this procedure guide and the agreement. The
following provisions are suggested guidelines only and not binding on any agency. These
provisions should be modified and expanded as necessary to meet the unique needs,
emergency organizational structure, and working relationships of each operational and
regional area.
II. TENETS OF OPERATIONAL AREA PUBLIC WORKS MUTUAL AID
1. The most effective means of providing timely assistance to a jurisdiction impacted by a
disaster is to have agreements in place in advance of the disaster.
2. Assistance is voluntary.
3. Assistance provided shall be reimbursed by the requesting jurisdiction.
4. Jurisdictions should reasonably commit their own resources before requesting mutual aid.
5. A Proclamation of a Local Emergency is necessary to activate the agreement.
6. Cooperative planning and training are desirable to enhance the effectiveness of providing
mutual aid when needed.
III. PROCEDURES FOR PUBLIC WORKS MUTUAL AID
1. Designated Public Works Coordinator
Paragraph 1 (a) of the Agreement specifies that the "Coordinator" shall mean the person
designated by each party to act on behalf of that party on all matters relative to mutual
aid, including but not be limited to requests, responses and reimbursement.
It is suggested that the Coordinator be a person who during a disaster would be
authorized to request public works resources and bind their agency for the cost of these
County of San Diego Operational Area
Public works Mutual Aid Agreement
Procedure Guide

Attachment B
resources. The Coordinator should also be in a position to authorize the providing agency
to release personnel and equipment to the agency impacted by the disaster.
It is suggested that alternate coordinators be designated in case the primary coordinator is
unavailable during the disaster.
2. WebEOC Communication
To obtain Public Works assistance, a planned method of communicating requests is
essential. This includes using WebEOC to process the request and maintain lines of
communication. Telephones should not be relied upon as the primary means of
communication within the impacted area of a major disaster, and common public works
radio frequencies may not exist in the area. It is recommended that WebEOC be used to
request assistance using the Public Works Request Form.
3. Operational Area Concept
The Agreement specifies that an Operational Area, normally a County and all the
jurisdictions within the County, shall be the basic unit for coordinating public works
mutual aid. Because of their knowledge of public works terminology and procedures, it is
suggested that a public works agency representative perform the role of public works
coordinator in the operational area. This will be the San Diego County Department of
Public Works for the operational area, although a different arrangement could be
established if desired by the involved agencies.
4. California Emergency Management Agency (Cal EMA) Role
Cal EMA would act to support public works mutual aid assistance under the agreement
by offering assistance to the Regional and Operational Public Works Coordinator, and act
as Statewide Coordinator for seeking mutual aid resources if required from beyond the
impacted region.
5. Resource Lists and Contacts
It is strongly recommended that lists of public works resources be developed for each
participating agency in the Operational Area. Such lists are essential for the Operational
Area Coordinator to quickly identify which agencies have the particular types of
resources needed by the requesting impacted agency.
The designated public works coordinator for each jurisdiction should develop a detailed
list of resources for their agency by quantity, type of personnel equipment, materials, and
a contact number to check on its availability when needed. It is suggested that the
coordinator then provide a brief summary of that information to the operational area
coordinator for compiling an Operational Area resource directory.
County of San Diego Operational Area
Public works mutual Aid Agreement
Procedure Guide

Attachment B
It is suggested that each party develops common standardized terminologies for resources
to facilitate categorizing and compiling these inventory lists. However, the development
of the standardized terminology should not impede the development of these resource
lists.
6. Arrange Care for Assisting Forces
The Agreement requires that the requesting party be responsible for the safekeeping of
the resources provided by the assisting party.
7. Documentation for Reimbursement
In accordance with the Agreement, each requesting and assisting party is required to keep
accounting records of the personnel, equipment, and materials provided under the Mutual
Aid Agreement as required by the Federal Stafford Act administered by the Federal
Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) and State guidelines. This requirement
is to maximize the requesting agencies reimbursement of costs expended to receive
mutual aid.
Each party to the Agreement should become thoroughly familiar with those federal and
state accounting requirements and pre -establish emergency management procedures and
training of their personnel to carefully document all costs of labor, equipment and
personnel, including administrative costs, accounted by specific damage location. These
practices are not only for mutual aid reimbursement but for reimbursement of all agency
costs associated with the disaster.
8. Proclamation of Emergency
The Agreement requires that a Proclamation of Local Emergency must be approved by an
authorized official of the impacted jurisdiction. A State of Emergency should be also
requested through the Operational Area for approval by the Governor to authorize State
reimbursement and, if warranted, a request for a Presidential Proclamation of Emergency
to authorize federal reimbursement. Each Agency should include in their emergency plan
a provision to seek such a proclamation from the authorized official in their jurisdiction
as soon as they can reasonably determine that the disaster will be beyond the scope of
mutual aid assistance.
9. Agency in Charge
The Agreement provides that the requesting coordinator shall remain in charge of the
incident and provide direction and control to the resources provided by the assisting
party. The request may also include having the assisting party providing supervisory
personnel to take direct charge of their forces under the overall direction of the requesting
coordinator. The intent is that the assisting party will comply with all reasonable
directions from the requesting coordinator. However, the assisting party should not be
County of San Diego Operational Area

Attachment B
obligated to perform any work that it reasonably believes would unduly jeopardize the
safety of its employees.
10. Checklists for Requesting Mutual Aid
Each party to the Agreement is encouraged to develop checklists for their coordinator to
use in assuring that all required steps are followed to properly and effectively seek and
provide Public Works Mutual Aid for the benefit of the impacted area and protection of the
assisting party. These checklists should establish who is to carry out each essential
function both internally to the agency and externally and contact numbers and means for
reaching them.
Attachment A (San Diego County Operational Area Public Works Checklist for mutual aid
assistance) is a sample checklist.

Check List for Mutual Aid Assistance
I. Pre -Event
Develop procedures at the local operational area to carry out mutual aid including checklists
of actions, resource lists, etc.
II. Post Event
1. Local Agency quickly assesses estimated extent of damage and availability of local
resources to respond.
2. If it is apparent that outside resources will be needed to effectively deal with the
emergency, promptly authorize local official to request Proclamation of Local
Emergency and, if warranted, request State of Emergency Proclamation through the
Operational Area Emergency Operation Center.
3. Upon proclamation of local emergency, request mutual aid assistance from Operational
Area Public Works Mutual Aid Coordinator according to pre -established procedures in
WebEOC.
4. Ensure request is specific as to type and quantity of resources needed, when to report,
who to report to, how long needed, type of work to be performed.
Once a providing party can be located to satisfy the resource request, the coordinator will
determine how quickly these resources can be made available and notify the requesting
party of that fact.
5. The requesting party will make all necessary arrangements to care for the assisting
party's personnel and equipment if needed.
6. The requesting party will carefully document all costs by specific damage site according
to State and Federal procedures to maximize reimbursement for costs. Carefully record

Checklist
Attachment B
San Diego County Operational Area
Public Works Mutual Aid Agreement Procedures Guide
I. PURPOSE
The purpose of this Procedures Guide is to provide parties to the Public Works
Agreement with a practical set of guidelines on how to effectively provide and receive
public works assistance. The terms of the agreement shall govern in the event there is any
actual or apparent conflict between this procedure guide and the agreement. The
following provisions are suggested guidelines only and not binding on any agency. These
provisions should be modified and expanded as necessary to meet the unique needs,
emergency organizational structure, and working relationships of each operational and
regional area.
II. TENETS OF OPERATIONAL AREA PUBLIC WORKS MUTUAL AID
1. The most effective means of providing timely assistance to a jurisdiction impacted by a
disaster is to have agreements in place in advance of the disaster.
2. Assistance is voluntary.
3. Assistance provided shall be reimbursed by the requesting jurisdiction.
4. Jurisdictions should reasonably commit their own resources before requesting mutual aid.
5. A Proclamation of a Local Emergency is necessary to activate the agreement.
6. Cooperative planning and training are desirable to enhance the effectiveness of providing
mutual aid when needed.
III. PROCEDURES FOR PUBLIC WORKS MUTUAL AID
1. Designated Public Works Coordinator
Paragraph 1 (a) of the Agreement specifies that the "Coordinator" shall mean the person
designated by each party to act on behalf of that party on all matters relative to mutual
aid, including but not be limited to requests, responses and reimbursement.
It is suggested that the Coordinator be a person who during a disaster would be
authorized to request public works resources and bind their agency for the cost of these
County of San Diego Operational Area
Public Works Mutual Aid Agreement
Procedure Guide

Attachment B
resources. The Coordinator should also be in a position to authorize the providing agency
to release personnel and equipment to the agency impacted by the disaster.
It is suggested that alternate coordinators be designated in case the primary coordinator is
unavailable during the disaster.
2. WebEOC Communication
To obtain Public Works assistance, a planned method of communicating requests is
essential. This includes using WebEOC to process the request and maintain lines of
communication. Telephones should not be relied upon as the primary means of
communication within the impacted area of a major disaster, and common public works
radio frequencies may not exist in the area. It is recommended that WebEOC be used to
request assistance using the Public Works Request Form.
3. Operational Area Concept
The Agreement specifies that an Operational Area, normally a County and all the
jurisdictions within the County, shall be the basic unit for coordinating public works
mutual aid. Because of their knowledge of public works terminology and procedures, it is
suggested that a public works agency representative perform the role of public works
coordinator in the operational area. This will be the San Diego County Department of
Public Works for the operational area, although a different arrangement could be
established if desired by the involved agencies.
4. California Emergency Management Agency (Cal EMA) Role
Cal EMA would act to support public works mutual aid assistance under the agreement
by offering assistance to the Regional and Operational Public Works Coordinator, and act
as Statewide Coordinator for seeking mutual aid resources if required from beyond the
impacted region.
5. Resource Lists and Contacts
It is strongly recommended that lists of public works resources be developed for each
participating agency in the Operational Area. Such lists are essential for the Operational
Area Coordinator to quickly identify which agencies have the particular types of
resources needed by the requesting impacted agency.
The designated public works coordinator for each jurisdiction should develop a detailed
list of resources for their agency by quantity, type of personnel equipment, materials, and
a contact number to check on its availability when needed. It is suggested that the
coordinator then provide a brief summary of that information to the operational area
coordinator for compiling an Operational Area resource directory.
County of San Diego Operational Area
Public Works Mutual Aid Agreement
Procedure Guide
2
Attachment B
It is suggested that each party develops common standardized terminologies for resources
to facilitate categorizing and compiling these inventory lists. However, the development
of the standardized terminology should not impede the development of these resource
lists.
6. Arrange Care for Assisting Forces
The Agreement requires that the requesting party be responsible for the safekeeping of
the resources provided by the assisting party.
7. Documentation for Reimbursement
In accordance with the Agreement, each requesting and assisting party is required to keep
accounting records of the personnel, equipment, and materials provided under the Mutual
Aid Agreement as required by the Federal Stafford Act administered by the Federal
Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) and State guidelines. This requirement
is to maximize the requesting agencies reimbursement of costs expended to receive
mutual aid.
Each party to the Agreement should become thoroughly familiar with those federal and
state accounting requirements and pre -establish emergency management procedures and
training of their personnel to carefully document all costs of labor, equipment and
personnel, including administrative costs, accounted by specific damage location. These
practices are not only for mutual aid reimbursement but for reimbursement of all agency
costs associated with the disaster.
8. Proclamation of Emergency
The Agreement requires that a Proclamation of Local Emergency must be approved by an
authorized official of the impacted jurisdiction. A State of Emergency should be also
requested through the Operational Area for approval by the Governor to authorize State
reimbursement and, if warranted, a request for a Presidential Proclamation of Emergency
to authorize federal reimbursement. Each Agency should include in their emergency plan
a provision to seek such a proclamation from the authorized official in their jurisdiction
as soon as they can reasonably determine that the disaster will be beyond the scope of
mutual aid assistance.
9. Agency in Charge
The Agreement provides that the requesting coordinator shall remain in charge of the
incident and provide direction and control to the resources provided by the assisting
party. The request may also include having the assisting party providing supervisory
personnel to take direct charge of their forces under the overall direction of the requesting
coordinator. The intent is that the assisting party will comply with all reasonable
directions from the requesting coordinator. However, the assisting party should not be
County of ,San Diego Operational Area

Attachment B
obligated to perform any work that it reasonably believes would unduly jeopardize the
safety of its employees.
10. Checklists for Requesting Mutual Aid
Each party to the Agreement is encouraged to develop checklists for their coordinator to
use in assuring that all required steps are followed to properly and effectively seek and
provide Public Works Mutual Aid for the benefit of the impacted area and protection of the
assisting party. These checklists should establish who is to carry out each essential
function both internally to the agency and externally and contact numbers and means for
reaching them.
Attachment A. (San Diego County Operational Area Public Works Checklist for mutual aid
assistance) is a sample checklist.
