Basic Plan Eugene EOC activations, except earthquake-related emergencies. In the event of an earthquake, the JIC will be located in training room 2 at the Eugene Fire Department Headquarters, 2nd & Chambers. The JIC will coordinate all media and public information requests from the EOC and Field PIOs. 6.9.7 Public and Media Inquiry Center (PMIC) A Public and Media Inquiry Phone Center will be established to support all EOC and JIC activations. The PMIC will be located at the Roosevelt Boulevard Public Works facility. Public Works personnel will staff the PMIC and remain operational until deactivated by either the EOC Incident Commander or the JIC Lead PIO. The PMIC will be the point of contact for the media and public in the event of a major emergency in the city. News media are not authorized to be in the EOC during an activation. The City Manager's Office has the ability to be a back-up for Public Works operations. The use of reports and records will vary according to the type and scope of the emergency; however, complete and accurate records must be maintained. Appropriate security to the EOC will be maintained to prevent entrance by persons not connected with an emergency situation. Authorized EOC staff will be clearly identified with a vest or other visible identification. 6.10 EMERGENCY AUTHORITY I In accordance with ORS 401.309 Emergency Management series, as amended, the City Manager may take extraordinary measures in the interest of effective emergency management.
