Emergency Operations Plan
APPROVAL AND IMPLEMENTATION
This is the Maricopa County Emergency Operations Plan.  This plan is the framework for 
emergency responders, Maricopa County governmental departments and supporting agencies 
to effectively coordinate and collaborate, before, during, and after a disaster, in order to provide 
a comprehensive response to all emergencies. 
The Chairman and the Board of Supervisors authorize the Director of the Maricopa County 
Department of Emergency Management, as directed by the County Manager, to make changes 
and updates to this plan that do not materially affect the overall planning approach and do not 
radically change responsibilities of senior county officials or county departments.  Changes will 
be recorded in the record of changes.
This plan is published in support of the State of Arizona Emergency Response and Recovery 
Plan and is in accordance with Arizona Revised Statutes, title 26, chapter 2, and the State of 
Arizona Emergency Response and Recovery Plan.  This plan supersedes all previously 
published copies of the Maricopa County Emergency Operations Plan.
