Plans

PLANS To accomplish it’s mission, Gwinnett ARES has developed a series of guideline documents. Standard Operating Guidelines (SOGs) outline activation conditions, resources needed, frequencies used, type of information communicated and when to deactivate type conditions. This is not a substitute for formal training or additional information that may be communicated on a “per incident’ basis. This information may be superseded by local emergency officials.
A zip file of all the current plans can be downloaded here. (updated 06/24/05)
Other ARES groups are welcome to use these documents as models for their own operating guidelines, plans and memorandums of understanding. Activity is underway to turn these documents into template documents. Questions can be directed to W4IGE.
