York County Office of Emergency Management Disaster Recovery Framework June 2021

The York County Disaster Recovery Framework is developed for use by County and local governments and volunteer organizations to ensure a timely recovery from emergencies affecting York County. This Framework was designed to identify potential actions required and the assistance necessary to support the citizens of York County and to return the County to normal conditions.

This Framework is predicated upon the concept that response and recovery operations will begin at the local government level. County assistance shall be provided upon request when the need exceeds the capability of the jurisdiction. Federal assistance is supplemental to State and local governments and is made available upon approval of a Presidential Disaster Declaration. This Framework is intended to be used by County agencies, local governments, and volunteer organizations to develop Standard Operating Procedures and recovery annexes to emergency operations plans in order to facilitate continuity and coordination of recovery activities.
