The Emergency Management
Program
The Emergency Management Program is responsible for directing and controlling coordinated response to and recovery from major emergency events or disasters. This is accomplished by maintaining current emergency plans, forging effective partnerships with municipal partners and regional emergency management organizations, encouraging emergency preparedness through public outreach and education, providing emergency notifications and information, and ensuring an adequate complement of trained emergency personnel, including community volunteers.
If the magnitude of the event overwhelms the capabilities of the District, the province will assist by activating the provincial emergency management structure to support local emergency operations centers (EOCs). In an emergency event, regional and municipal staff, volunteers, first responders, First Nations and non-government agencies would all be involved in the emergency response.
The function of the EOC is to support the disaster site in a variety of ways, such as acquiring supplies, coordinating agencies, providing public information, and managing evacuations.
The Lillooet Emergency Management Program does NOT coordinate or facilitate daily emergency response activities under the jurisdiction of the RCMP, Fire Department or BC Ambulance Service.
Please consider becoming an emergency response volunteer. Volunteers are an essential resource in emergency events, and there are many different ways that you can get involved to help your community in a disaster.
For more information on Lillooet's Emergency Preparedness plan, please see the District of Lillooet Emergency Response and Recovery Plan (PDF).
