1. Task #4:
Simulated Tactics/ Planning Meeting (Individual) (7.2 points)
(submitted Week #8)
This is step is being completed as an individual
task. In an incident, the actual tactics and planning meetings
would be completed as a command and general staff group. The
tactics meeting is where the specific actions that need to be
taken to meet incident objectives are determined. This leads to
the identification of specific resources that will be needed to
accomplish incident objectives (personnel, equipment, and other
typed resources). For this task, you will focus on your assigned
response discipline and consider the organization and resources
needed to successfully accomplish the incident objectives. You
should quickly realize how large a task this is if you engaged it
across the response disciplines. Use the DHS Resource Typing
Library Tool (
https://rtlt.preptoolkit.fema.gov/Public
) examine specific resource types. The resources listed within
the Central City materials may not be named consistent with the
types resources as these are a relatively recent development for
some response disciplines.
Complete the ICS 215 form (this is a worksheet and does not
become part of the Incident Action Plan) to determine the
resource needs for your discipline to accomplish incident
objectives. Make sure that your allocations are realistic and
could be obtained with the initial short time period of the
incident. Use the Central City Document to specifically
identify resources available in the vicinity. Upload ICS-215 to
the Assignments Folder.

2. Use the incident map to specifically describe where you will
stage and assign requested resources. (Ex. – If you are making
a perimeter make sure you show how your resources will secure
a perimeter – 1 Central City Police Officer at the corner of 1st
Street and Third Avenue). You will need to write a 2-3 page
narrative, but can also support it with a map if you have the
technology available to manipulate the map. Using a map is not
required, but you must specifically describe how the resources
will be assigned and the function they will perform.
(Remember if you going to have 100 firefighters you need to
explain to me where they came from) Upload description to the
Assignment Folder.
For one of the groups you created in the operations section in
task #3 complete an ICS-204 form that details the personnel and
the control operations to be completed by the group. Be
specific in location and action. (Just as in completing the ICS-
215 consider what it would take to complete ICS 204s for each
element in your discipline and across all of the response
disciplines) Upload to assignments folder.
