2015-06-23 I&S Agenda - Item 5 - Local Disaster Management Plan - Attachment 1

   work with the group, relevant agencies and the community to develop the specific aim,
    objectives and strategies of the Recovery Operational Plan
   liaise with functional lead agency representatives to obtain required support for recovery
    programs and activities
   manage the implementation of the Recovery Operational Plan and Sub Group Action
    Plans with the assistance of the LDRC, Sub Groups, Disaster District and SRG
   report on the recovery effort to the Disaster District, and the State Recovery Coordinator
    as well as the community
The LRC should be involved in disaster response planning and implementation in addition to
the role of leading the recovery effort. This duality of roles immediately after disaster impact
is often inevitable given the limited management resources available within the Noosa Shire
While the LRC may need to be involved in operational response matters from time to time,
they should focus on the recovery implications of such matters to ensure response supports
the recovery effort. It is important for the LRC to remember that Recovery is a mindset,
rather than a strict process.

6.6    Recovery plan
A detailed generic plan for recovery operations following a disaster in the Noosa Shire was
approved by Council on 2 July 2015. This plan addresses all aspects of recovery from a
disaster event and is available on the Noosa Council website.

6.6.1 Recovery plan for a specific event
As soon as possible after a disaster has occurred and the recovery committee activated the
Chair of the Recovery Committee will present a specific recovery plan for that particular
event for the LDMG’s endorsement.
This plan will outline a process for supporting affected communities in the reconstruction of
physical infrastructure, restoring the economy, rehabilitation of the environment, and support
for the emotional social and physical wellbeing of those affected by disaster events.
It will detail:
   governance arrangements for the local recovery committee and sub committees if
    required
   recovery objectives and a timetable for action
   appointment of recovery manager(s)
   a community engagement and communication plan
   economic recovery action plan
   environmental recovery action plan
   human-social recovery action plan
   infrastructure recovery action plan
   reporting and evaluation procedures

This plan will be developed with representatives of essential service and infrastructure
providers and with the assistance from each of the Queensland Government lead agencies.
It will be designed to respond to the specific circumstances of that event. The State
Agencies who will be consulted and involved in the development of the plan have been
identified as follows:
