has developed a waste management plan. For instance, after an earthquake there could be a lot <br />of debris that would need to be removed. <br /> <br /> Chief Gary gave an example of pre-1933 homes that have fallen off their foundation after <br />an earthquake. If Pleasanton called the County and said it had 10,000 cubic yards of debris to be <br />cleared from lots and streets, then the County would formulate a plan of how many extra trucks it <br />could use to get that debris to the land fill. A different kind of request may have to go to <br />Sacramento or to FEMA to get the right resource to taken care of the matter. <br /> <br /> Ms. Ayala asked if there was a special plan for the Lawrence Livermore Lab. <br /> <br /> Chief Gary said there is a high degree of coordination between the Fire Chiefs and the <br />Fire Department at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, as evidenced by the grant given by <br />the Depadment of Energy for the community alerting packages. He said he has a DOE top secret <br />clearance and has briefings from the DOE with access to the Lab's Emergency Operations <br />Center and their fire department communications center. <br /> <br /> Ms. Michelotti indicated there is also coordination with Valley Care Medical Center. <br /> Chief Gary agreed and said they also have a detailed emergency plan. <br /> <br /> Mayor Pico asked if there was also a link with East Bay Regional Park District. <br /> <br /> Chief Gary said there was a connection through the County of Alameda. For example if <br />it were necessary to set up tents for homeless shelters, that request would go to the County. <br /> <br /> Mr. Campbell inquired about air space and relationships with the FAA. <br /> <br /> Chief Gary said there was an indirect coordination. Livermore has an airport and the <br />Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department protects the airport and tower, so Livermore has the <br />responsibility in its emergency plan. <br /> <br /> Ms. McKeehan related her experiences from the Loma Prieta Earthquake and indicated <br />this Disaster Response system is very effective and helps the regular employees to respond <br />efficiently. <br /> <br /> Ms. Dennis was happy to know that this plan is being practiced. <br /> <br /> Mayor Pico indicated he had been to New York and Washington and talked to some of <br />the people who responded in the emergency. They consistently said it was important to train <br />people and practice over and over again. <br /> <br /> No action was required on this item. <br /> <br />Pleasanton City Council 20 10/01/02 <br />Minutes <br /> <br /> <br />
