EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Western Australian State Government has adopted a comprehensive and integrated
approach to Emergency Management. This approach encompasses the concept of all
hazards and is based upon the notion that it is impossible to create separate plans for
every incident that may occur but that it is possible to have a single set of management
arrangements capable of encompassing all hazards. To achieve this, frameworks need to
be flexible enough to adapt and react to the widest possible range of incidents. Dealing
with the identified risks to community safety requires a range of programs encompassing
PPRR as follows:
Prevention – measures to eliminate or reduce the incidence or severity of emergencies.
Preparedness – measures to ensure that, should an emergency occur, communities, resources and services are capable of coping with the effects.
Response – measures taken in anticipation of, during and immediately after an emergency to ensure its effects are minimised.
Recovery – measures which support emergency-affected individuals and communities in the reconstruction of the physical infrastructure and restoration of emotional, economic, environmental and physical wellbeing.
The Emergency Management Act 2005 contains a three tier approach to Emergency
Management throughout the state and places certain duties upon the State (State
Emergency Management Committee), districts throughout the state which are aligned to
the WA Police Districts (District Emergency Management Committees) and then Local
Governments (Local Emergency Management Committees).
The Act allows the prescription of hazard management agencies (HMA). HMA’s are
prescribed due to their functions under a written law or because of their specialised
knowledge, expertise and resources in respect to a particular type of hazard. HMA’s will
nearly always be responsible for leading a Response to an emergency in relation to the
type of hazard for which they are prescribed and will often be prescribed for other aspects
of emergency management i.e. Prevention, Preparedness or Recovery.
A Hazard Management Agency will be prescribed because of the agency’s function under
a written law or because of specialised knowledge, expertise and resources in dealing with
a particular type of hazard or emergency management activity.
The designated HMA’s for identified hazards in Western Australia are as follows:

Local Government Role in Emergency Management
Local Governments are support organisations which have legislated responsibilities. Local
Governments’ role in the PPRR process does not involve the Response phase but does
involve the Planning, Preparedness and Recovery elements.
Local Government is not an appointed Hazard Management Agency. Local Government is
required under The Emergency Management Act 2005 to provide the following
responsibilities and obligations (refer Sections 36 to 43 of the Act).
Establish and operate a Local Emergency Management Committee.
Conduct an Emergency Risk Management project to develop a Risk Register i.e. a list of risks identified as priorities within the particular community.
Prepare and maintain Local Emergency Management Arrangements to support Hazard Management Agencies in time of Emergency.
Manage the Recovery phase of an emergency.
The City of Canning Current Status
The City Of Canning has an established Local Emergency Management Committee
which has been operating jointly and in cooperation with the City of South Perth
since May 2006. City of Canning agreed to this arrangement vide report CS-035-06
at its Ordinary Meeting of 9 May 2006. City of Canning is represented by Councilor
Stuart Clarke.
The Local Emergency Management Arrangements were presented to Council in
report CS-108-10 at the Ordinary Meeting of 14 December 2010. These
arrangements are subject to constant review and updating as changes in staff,
roles, equipment, communications networks and indeed risks to the community
change over time.
To comply with the Emergency Management Act 2005 requirement to manage the
recovery phase of an emergency City of Canning is required to complete Local
Recovery Arrangements.
The Local Recovery Coordinator for City of Canning has been appointed by the City
as the Executive Officer Client and Community Services.
The City of Canning Emergency Risk Management project was completed in 2008
with the resultant report containing the identified risks (Risk Register) presented to
the City Of Canning Council in report CS-016-09 at the Ordinary meeting of 10
March 2009.

Next steps
The following concurrent activities will occur during 2011 and on-going:
Training of key City Of Canning staff in Emergency Management for Local Government and other relevant courses.
Completion of Local Recovery Arrangements for the City of Canning.
Completion of Business Continuity Arrangements in response to the threat of Pandemic to the City Of Canning, Opportunities to tie this in with the Risk Management project currently being considered will be explored.
Continued monitoring and improvement via the LEMC meeting process and exercise of the LEMA.
This compliance with a legislated requirement will, in itself, have no direct and immediate
impact upon financial considerations for the City of Canning however; will provide some
guidance and commitment relevant to the deployment of the City’s resources in times of
emergency.
Community Consultation
The City of Canning was successful in its application to FESA’s All West Australians
Reducing Emergencies (AWARE) Program in the 2007-08 financial year. $27,273 was
granted to employ a facilitator and cover the costs of undertaking the emergency risk
management process. A Community Consultation process was completed during this
Emergency Risk Management project from which valuable insight was gained regarding
the threats perceived by the Community as the greatest threats.
City of Canning Policy Implications
The development of a human resource policy entitled Employee – Pandemic Alert
Entitlements has been drafted by the Manager Human Resources to address the
possibility of special leave considerations during a Human Pandemic Emergency. This
draft policy will be included in a future report to Council which deals with the Administrative
Policy update.
Other relevant policies will be developed as needs arise.

Geographic areas
The City Of Canning consists of approximately 30,000 residences with a population now approaching 80,000 and is located in the South East sector of the Perth Metropolitan area. The City Of Canning is elongated in shape running from a north east to south west direction. The city is centrally divided by the Canning River with its associated wetlands and Canning River Regional Park. The Jandakot airport lies outside the southern extremity of city with a high volume of light aircraft activity from this location over the southern end of the City. The Perth International and Domestic Airport lies on the north eastern extremity with a high volume of heavy aircraft over-flights into and out of this facility. The City is divided in a north/south direction by the Albany Highway, a major commuter route and providing access from the Metropolitan area to the Great Southern area of W.A. The Leach Highway divides the City in an east/west direction and connects commercial traffic from rural areas and eastern states to the Port of Fremantle. The Roe Highway, a major component of the Metropolitan bypass

system which connects northern to eastern to southern and western locations, passes through the eastern and southern locations. The major north/south metropolitan passenger rail route passes through the northern parts of the City while the major freight line runs east/west from Welshpool to Canning Vale and on to the port of Fremantle.
Industry
There are two major industrial areas located within the City. The Welshpool industrial area comprises the majority of the suburb in which it is located and involves a large variety of industry including transport, warehousing, manufacturing, fuel and other hazardous material storage and transportation, etc. This industrial area has developed over many years, since the early development of the Perth Metropolitan area. The Canning Vale Industrial area, a more recent development of the past 30 plus years, is situated in the south western sector of the City contains opportunity for further development with a considerable amount of vacant land. The area is isolated from residential areas on the south side by the Welshpool to Fremantle rail line (freight) and from residential areas on its northern side by the Roe Highway. Industry is varied and contains a considerable commercial retail component. The Willetton Light Industrial area lies centrally within the City, to the south of the Canning River. This area consists of smaller manufacturing, service and retail industry.
Commercial
There are five major shopping centres within the City of Canning, the largest being the Westfield Carousel Shopping Centre on Albany Highway, Cannington. This centre is surrounded by additional retail and service outlets which form the ‘city centre’ precinct. The Bentley Shopping Centre is also adjacent to Albany Highway, but on the northern boundary of the City. The Riverton Forum Shopping Centre is situated in the High Road Riverton/ Willetton commercial zone. The Southlands Shopping Centre is situated in the heart of the large residential zone of Willetton and is opposite the Burrendah Reserve/Willetton Sports Club recreational area. The Livingstone Marketplace Shopping centre is situated in the southern zone and services the extensive Canning Vale residential area.
1.5 Aim The aim of the City of Canning’s Local Emergency Management Arrangements is to document the prevention and preparedness status relative to risks identified during the Emergency Risk Management process – and – to provide a framework for development of the Local Recovery Arrangements required to enable compliance with the
City of Canning Local Emergency Management Arrangements
LEMC Endorsement Date: Version No: 1 Page
21
responsibility of Recovery Management during and following an emergency. The arrangements include specific details on planning, response and recovery activities of the City in support of agencies which hold the legislated Response capability and responsibility. . 1.6 Purpose The purpose of these emergency management arrangements is to:

1.11 Special Considerations The City of Canning holds an Annual New Year’s Day fireworks event on the foreshore of the Canning River in the suburb of Shelley each year. This event has been attracting an estimated 20,000 to this location and is therefore an event which requires ongoing Emergency Management risk assessment. 1.12 Resources A local emergency resources register for the City of Canning is provided in Appendix Two of these Arrangements. The register contains a list of the vehicles and plant owned by the City and available for use in Emergencies.
1.13 Financial Arrangements 1.13.1 Response The City of Canning recognises State Emergency Management Policy 4.2 “Funding for Emergencies” which outlines the Hazard Management Agency responsible for meeting costs associated with an emergency. 1.13.2 Local Financial Arrangements:
The City of Canning also recognises the importance of emergency management and is committed to spending such necessary funds as required to ensure the safety of the City’s residents and visitors. Emergency funds may also be provided as needed in response to any significant emergency within the City of Canning. In emergency situations Council’s managers may approve expenditure up to a value of $10,000 for emergency situations. Where possible, authorisation should be sought from the Chief Executive Officer and should he not be available any Deputy Chief Executive Officer. For funding exceeding this level the Chief Executive Officer must be consulted prior to any approval. 1.13.3 Funding & Grants The City of Canning was successful in its application to FESA’s All West Australians
Reducing Emergencies (AWARE) Program in the 2007-08 financial year. $27 273 was
granted to employ a facilitator and cover the costs of undertaking the emergency risk
management process.
Additional grant funding in support of the City’s ongoing preparation and planning for
emergency will be examined as opportunities arise.

These arrangements are based on the premise that the HMA responsible for the above risks will develop, test and review appropriate emergency management plans for the hazards under their appointed responsibility. It is recognised that the HMA’s and Combat agencies may require City of Canning resources and assistance in emergency management. The City of Canning is committed to providing assistance/support if the required resources are available through the Incident Support Group when and if formed. 3.2 Activation of Local Arrangements The Hazard Management Agency or the Emergency Coordinator (EC) in consultation with the Hazard Management Agency is responsible for the activation of these Arrangements and for activating the required organisations in accordance with these Arrangements. 3.3 Incident Support Group (ISG) The ISG is convened by the HMA or the Emergency Coordinator in consultation with the HMA to assist in the overall coordination of services and information during a major incident. Coordination is achieved through agency/organisation liaison officers providing agency specific expert advice and support through clear identification of priorities by agencies sharing information and resources.
City of Canning Local Emergency Management Arrangements
LEMC Endorsement Date: Version No: 1 Page
31
3.4 ISG Role The role of the ISG is to assist the Incident Controller through the provision of information, expert advice, support and resources relevant to their organisations. The ISG is a group of people representing different agencies who may have involvement in the incident. 3.5 Triggers – Activation of an ISG The activation of an ISG should be considered when the following occur; a) For a level 2 incident;
b) Requirement for possible or actual evacuation;
c) A need to coordinate warning/information to community during a multi-agency
event;
d) Where there is a perceived need relative to an impending hazard impact. (Flood, fire, storm surge);
e) Multi agency response where there is a need for collaborative decision making and
the coordination of resources/information; and f) Where there is a need for regional support beyond that of a single agency.
3.6 State Emergency Management Policy 4.1 “Operational Management” outlines the following three operational levels of an emergency situation: LEVEL 1
Local response/resources required;
No significant issues;
Single or limited multi agency response (day to day business);
Minimal impact on community;
Managed by an HMA Incident Management Team (IMT) only;
Low risk of incident escalation. LEVEL 2
Requires multi agency response;
Protracted duration;
Activation of an Incident Support Group;
Resources required from outside the local area;
City of Canning Local Emergency Management Arrangements
LEMC Endorsement Date: Version No: 1 Page
32
Medium level of media interest;
Medium level of complexity;
Medium impact on the community;
Potential declaration of an ‘Emergency Situation”.
LEVEL 3
Requires significant multi agency response;
Protracted response duration;
Activation of an Operational Area Support Group (OASG);
State or National resources required;
Significant level of media interest;
High level of complexity;
Significant impact on the community;
Multiple incident areas;
Significant political interest;
Potential declaration of an ‘Emergency Situation’ or ‘State of Emergency’. 3.7 Membership of an ISG The Incident Support Group is made up of agencies/representatives that provide support to the Hazard Management Agency. As a general rule, the recovery coordinator should be a member of the ISG from the onset, to ensure consistency of information flow and transition into recovery. The representation on this group may change regularly depending upon the nature of the incident, agencies involved and the consequences caused by the emergency. Agencies supplying staff for the ISG must ensure that the representative(s) have the authority to commit resources and/or direct tasks. 3.8 Frequency of Meetings Frequency of meetings will be determined by the Incident Controller and will generally depend on the nature and complexity of the incident. As a minimum, there should be at least one meeting per incident. Coordination is achieved through clear identification of priorities by agencies sharing information and resources. 3.9 Emergency Coordination Centre The Emergency Coordination Centre is where the Incident Support Group meets during an emergency and provides a focal point for a coordinated approach. The following table identifies suitable ECCs within the City of Canning with the contact details for activating each site, given that other Agencies can and may provide a more suitable facility for an ECC, dependent upon the nature and location of the emergency:

3.10 Communications 3.10.1 Media Management and Public Information. Communities threatened or impacted by emergencies have an urgent and vital need for information and direction. Such communities require adequate, timely information and instructions in order to be aware of the emergency and to take appropriate actions to safeguard life and property. The provision of this information is the responsibility of the HMA. It is likely that individual agencies will want to issue media releases for their areas of responsibility (e.g. Water Corporation on water issues, Western Power on power issues, etc.) however the release times, issues identified and content shall be coordinated through the ISG to avoid conflicting messages being given to the public. The media officer appointed by and representing the responsible HMA will coordinate all media releases in relation to a particular emergency situation. 3.10.2 Local Communications The City of Canning Public Affairs Officer will be a required member of the Incident Support Group. This officer will be responsible for ensuring that all communications from the City to the media in relation to the emergency are made via the responsible HMA Media Liaison Officer. Upon commencement of the Recovery phase ie; upon the HMA handing the incident over to the City of Canning, responsibility for all communication to the public from the City will become the responsibility of the Public Affairs officer, albeit, the Mayor or the CEO may elect to act as the ongoing spokesperson. The Public Affairs Officer will develop and maintain a contact list of all local media outlets, both electronic and print. These outlets may then be utilized during emergency

EVACUATION
City of Canning Local Emergency Management Arrangements
LEMC Endorsement Date: Version No: 1 Page
36
PART 4 – EVACUATION 4.1 Evacuation Circumstances may arise within the City where there may be the need to partially or totally evacuate the population of a particular area. The aim of this section is to detail arrangements for the relocation of disaster affected victims. The decision to prepare for an evacuation will be determined by the hazard management agency in consultation with the Emergency Coordinator. The HMA will manage the evacuation with assistance from the WA Police, in controlling the general community participating in an evacuation. Communication of the decision to evacuate is the responsibility of the HMA through the Emergency Coordination Centre. Police warn members of the affected community with assistance from the City’s Patrol and Security Services Officers and Local SES. Evacuation is a risk management strategy which may need to be implemented, particularly in regards to cyclones, flooding and bush fires. The decision to evacuate will be based on an assessment of the nature and extent of the hazard, the anticipated speed of onset, the number and category of people to be evacuated, evacuation priorities and the availability of resources. These considerations should focus on providing all the needs of those being evacuated to ensure their safety and on-going welfare.
4.2 Evacuation Planning Principles The decision to evacuate will only be made by a Hazard Management Agency and the Emergency Coordinator when the members of the community at risk do not have the capability to make an informed decision or when it is evident that loss of life or injury is imminent. State Emergency Management Policy 4.7 ‘Community Evacuation’ should be consulted when planning evacuation. 4.3 Management
The responsibility for managing evacuation rests with the HMA. The HMA is responsible for planning, communicating and effecting the evacuation. These aspects also incorporate the financial costs associated with the evacuation unless prior arrangements have been made. In most cases the WA Police may be the ‘combat agency’ for carrying out the evacuation and they may use the assistance of other agencies such as the SES and the Local Government. Whenever evacuation is being considered the Department for Child Protection and Family Support must be consulted during the planning stages. The CPFS have

LEMC Endorsement Date: Version No: 1 Page
37
responsibility under the State Arrangements to maintain the welfare of evacuees under West plan Welfare. To this end, the District Emergency Services Officer for the Department of Child Protection has developed a Local Welfare Plan relevant to the City of Canning Local Government District and neighbouring districts within the South East Metropolitan Region. This Local Welfare Plan can be found under Local Support Plans USB Document Folder
4.4 Special Needs Groups Evacuation and welfare plans specifically aimed at residents within City of Canning owned and operated Aged Care Facilities and Youth facilities are to be developed and annexured to these arrangements when complete. 4.5 Welfare/Evacuation Centres Refer next chapter for detailed list of City of Canning welfare/evacuation centers. 4.6 Routes & Maps See following page for Map of the City for general reference; detailed maps can be found within the City of Canning GIS Electronic mapping system. 4.7 Animals (including assistance animals) see also Animal Welfare Plan Draft During an evacuation, the City of Canning will as far as practical, utilize its limited Impounding facilities to accommodate domesticated pet dogs, and other suitable pets. Neighbouring local governments may be approached to assist with additional animal accommodation if this strategy is deemed appropriate in the circumstances. This strategy will be considered for inclusion when the proposed agreement between the City of Canning and the City of South Perth is negotiated. Assistance Animals will remain with their human companion in all but the most extreme of circumstances. 4.8 Other Evacuation Resources.
Patrol and Security Officers to assist in door knocking & other communication strategies within the affected location.
Fleet of 12 and 18 seat buses for mobilization of evacuees without transport.

PART 5 – WELFARE
5.1 Welfare The Department for Child Protection and family Services (DCPFS) has the role of managing welfare. DCPFS has developed a local Welfare Emergency Management Plan for the Canning District which includes the City of Canning, the City of South Perth, the City of Belmont and the Town of Victoria Park. This plan can be found under Support Plans USB Document file 5.2 Local Welfare Coordinator The Local Welfare Coordinator for the District will be appointed from internal officers by the DCPFS when the Plan is activated. 5.3 Local Welfare Liaison Officer The Manager Patrol and Security Services at the City of Canning is appointed the Local Welfare Liaison Officer for the City of Canning under these arrangements. This role will provide assistance to the Local Welfare Centre, including the management of emergency evacuation centres such as building opening, closing, security and maintenance. 5.4 District Emergency Services Officer The Department for Child Protection and Family Services shall appoint a District Emergency Services Officer (DESO) to prepare local welfare plans. The DESO for the City of Canning is listed in Contacts Register. 5.5 State & National Registration & Enquiry When a large scale emergency occurs and people are evacuated or become displaced, one of the areas the Department for Child Protection and family Protection (DCPFS) has responsibility for is the registration of displaced persons and placing the information onto a State or National Register. This primarily allows friends or relatives to locate each other but also has many further applications. Because of the nature of the work involved DCPFS have reciprocal arrangements with the Red Cross to assist with the registration process.
5.6 Welfare/Evacuation Centres The following pages details facilities operated by the City of Canning which have been designated “Welfare/Evacuation Centres” in time of Emergency.

LEMC Endorsement Date: Version No: 1 Page
54
PART 6 – RECOVERY 6.1 General Information This part of the arrangements details issues that apply where an event is assessed as being of sufficient magnitude to require a Local Recovery Coordinating Committee to be involved in the recovery process. Initial and primary responsibility for management of the recovery process lies at the local government level. Therefore the City of Canning will be responsible for management of the recovery process within the local government district. Where the level of recovery is beyond the capacity of the local Community, State level support shall be requested as outlined in state recovery arrangements (WESTPLAN Recovery Coordination). Triggers for requesting state level support include:
6.2 Aim
The recovery process is aimed at returning the community to pre-emergency conditions as quickly as possible by the coordinated deployment of available resources. 6.3 Planning for Recovery during Operations Planning for recovery is an ongoing process to be undertaken by the Local Recovery Coordinating Committee to ensure maximized preparedness. The use of operational debriefs, risk assessments, experience and local knowledge will provide the basis for planning for the recovery process. 6.4 Transition from Response to Recovery
Response and recovery activities may overlap and may compete for the same limited resources. Such instances should normally be resolved through negotiation between the Hazard Management Agency’s Incident Manager (IM), the Emergency Coordinator and the Local Recovery Coordinator. However, where an agreement cannot be achieved, preference is to be given to the response requirements.
City of Canning Local Emergency Management Arrangements
LEMC Endorsement Date: Version No: 1 Page

6.5 Activation The decision to activate these Arrangements will usually be made by the Incident Management Group as a result of an assessment of the assistance needed for recovery made by either:
• The Incident Management (Support) Group itself or • Through consultation between the Hazard Management Agency (HMA) Incident Manager (IM) and the Local Emergency Co-ordinator • City of Canning
Activation of these Arrangements is the responsibility of the Chair, Local Recovery Coordinating Committee. 6.6 Local Recovery Coordinator The City of Canning will appoint one person, and may appoint more than one to the position of Local Recovery Coordinator (LRC) in accordance with the requirements of the Act, section 41(4). By appointing and training more than one person to undertake the role of LRC, coverage is ensured in the event the primary appointee is unavailable when an emergency occurs. The Local Recovery Coordinator for the City of Canning is the Executive Community Services or the officer acting in that position. 6.7 Local Recovery Committee Role To coordinate and support local management of the recovery processes within the community subsequent to a major emergency in accordance with SEMC policies and the Local Recovery Arrangements. 6.8 Function of the Local Recovery Committee The Local Recovery Committee is responsible for:
Appointment of key positions within the committee and, when established, the sub-committees (e.g. Local Recovery Coordinator, Media Liaison Officer, subgroup chairpersons etc.)
Assessing requirements for restoration of the Social, Infrastructure, Physical, Health, Environmental, and Economic well-being of the community.
Establish sub-committees as required
Ensuring a coordinated multi agency approach to community recovery.
Making appropriate recommendations to the LEMC to improve the communities’ recovery preparedness

6.9 Local Recovery Committee Composition The Local Recovery Coordination Committee will preferably be chaired by the Mayor or his nominee and have local representatives as its members, including appropriate State Government Agency representatives. Where a Local Recovery Coordination Committee is established a core group of key stakeholders will be represented on the committee supported by other organisations seconded as required. The membership of the Local Recovery Coordination Committee is dynamic and will change with the needs of the community at various stages during the recovery process. Where a Local Recovery Coordination Committee is established to manage the local recovery process, the following structure will be implemented as appropriate.
