Abstract
This Guide is meant to aid State and local emergency managers (also called "emergency management coordinators") in their efforts to develop and maintain a viable all-hazard emergency operations plan. The Guide is a "toolbox" of ideas and advice, not a sample EOP. Each community's EOP must reflect what that community will do to protect itself from its hazards with the resources it has or can obtain. This Guide is intended primarily for use by personnel responsible for EOP development and maintenance in State and local emergency mangement agencies. It is strictly a guide. It establishes no requirements, and its recommendations may be used, adapted, or disregarded.
