Emergency Preparedness
Our Emergency Plan
The Sunshine Coast Emergency Program (SCEP) has a full time emergency program coordinator whose responsibility is to prepare for, respond to and recover from natural and man-made disasters. As well, the coordinator keeps the Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) in a state of readiness and maintains the emergency medical and response supplies.
The Sunshine Coast Regional District, authorized under "Sunshine Coast Regional District Emergency Measures Plan and Administration Bylaw No. 564, 2005" provides a comprehensive management program for the entire Sunshine Coast to prepare for, respond to and recover from emergencies and disasters.
For additional information see the Sunshine Coast Regional District Emergency Program Website.
