Emergency Management Planning

CCEP Planning Framework

The overall Pottawattamie County Comprehensive Emergency Plan (CCEP) is constructed using an all-hazards approach and applicable to all jurisdictions within Pottawattamie County under the authority of the Emergency Management Commission. The CEP components comply with federal emergency planning requirements outlined by FEMA. 

The CCEP is a (3) part plan consisting of the:

• Emergency Operations Framework
• Mitigation Plan (See Programs, Mitigation for a copy of the plan)
• Disaster Recovery Framework 

This planning is required by Iowa Code and components of the CCEP are updated on an annual basis. Each of these components have parts, appendices, attachments, and referenced materials that all create a comprehensive planning framework to guide jurisdictions during major or catastrophic events.
