The Yuba County OES and the Board ofSupervisors give careful consideration to relocating tI,e Emergency Operations Center to a location with less exposure to disruption impacting the ability to respond to a disastrous event, should one occur, on the adjacent railroad line, State Highway 20, or breach in the Marysville levee system. (See F3). The recommendation will not be implemented because it is not warranted. Careful consideration has been given to the location ofthe current Emergency Operations Center and our back-up systems, particularly the Mobile Incident Command Vehicle, which is versatile and equipped to perform similar functions as the EOC, recognizing it is not as robust as a primary operational center. In addition, during planning ofthe new Sheriffs Facility on Yuba Street in Marysville, careful consideration was given to locating emergency dispatch to the second floor along with their Emergency Operations Center and back-up power. The Emergency Services Manager is constantly improving the state of readiness for Yuba County through technology, equipment, redundant systems and employee training. Sincerely, ~~ County Administrator
