The Georgia Department of Defense continued, in the tradition of the past several years, to make significant contributions to the defense and emergency management programs of Georgia and the nation. The loyal and dedicated men and women who are the department have become an increasing credit to this agency and to the state. I believe that you can be justifiably proud of the resultant high state of mobilization readiness of the Georgia National Guard and the skillful effectiveness of the other divisions of the department. This report is intended to inform you and the citIZens of Georgia of oUT many accomplishments and activities during the just-completed fiscal year.

Georgia ational Guard The Georgia Guard has given the state and its citizens 245 years of continuous service dating from the formation by General Oglethorpe of the Volunteer Troop of Horse, 1st (Chatham County) Regiment Georgia Militia in 1736. Thi proud record of achievement continued as the improved mobilization readiness of the Georgia Army and Air National Guard further qualified them as full partners in our nation's first-line defense available and ready for rapid deployment to support active Army and Air Force commitments worldwide. The Georgia Army Guard capped off a fine year of training which once again found every unit rated combat capable by active Army evaluators. In addition Georgia led the way in the First U.S. Army winning its Overall Achievement Trophy and, for the fourth consecutive year, earning its top training award. First U.S. Army includes 20 eastern states Puerto Rico, the Di trict of Columbia and the Virgin Islands. Significantly almost half of the nation's Army Guard force is located Within this area. Matching the Army Guard stride for stride in 1981, Wa the Georgia Air National Guard. Active Air Force evaluators again rated the 28 Air Guard units throughout the state as combat capable. Force modernization was given a big boost with delivery of the first "right-off-the-assembly- line" C-130H Hercules aircraft to Savannah's 165th Tactical Airlift Group. The Georgia-produced cargo-workhorse should make the airlift unit an even more effective member of the Air Force team. Both the Georgia Army and Air ational Guard remained national leaders in maintaining strength during the fiscal year. The Army Guard ended the year at 102.5 percent of its authorized strength, while the Air Guard stood at 95.5 percent of its authorized figure. Georgia Emergency Management Agency Under legilation enacted during the 1981 General Assembly, the Georgia Civil Defen e Division was renamed the Georgia Emergency Management Agency (GEMA). The new name more accurately refleGts the mission of the division. During the fiscal year GEMA tested its nuclear accident plan and tornado plans. The agency also published the Georgia Radiological Emergency Plan, becoming only the third state to gain plan approval from the uclear Regulatory Commission. In addition, GEMA completely revised its Coastal Hurricane Evacuation Plan as a result of lessons learned from Hurricane David. This new plan was tested in May and found to be effective. 3 the agency _ His Excellency James Oglethorpe Efq General & Commander in Chief of all his Majesties Forces in Carolina and Georgia and Colonel of one of His Majesties Regiments of Foot. 4 GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE LEGAL AUTHORITY 1.

During fiscal year 1981, several pieces of legislation benefiting departmental programs passed the General Assembly. These included the renaming of Civil Defense to the Georgia Emergency Management Agency and the inclusion of National Guard members in the Workers' Compensation insurance program. Other legislation increased state tuition assistance and intro- duced scholarships to North Georgia College. For a detailed look at these two programs, see the Army and Air Guard recruiting and retention sections. (pp 28 and 36) The name change, from Civil Defense to the Georgia Emergency Management Agency, more accurately reflects the mission of the agency which is tasked with aiding Georgians in time of emergency. The passage of legislation bringing Guards- men under Workers' Compensation simplifies the procedure for collecting pay and medical care allowances for Guardsmen injured while on state active duty. 9 mililary _ Sgt. 1st Class Vivian Hall (left) and son, Sgt.

J-O Military Division The agency's largest component, the Military Division i~ comprised of the Georgia Army National (GaARNG) and the Georgia Air National Guard (GaANG). As part of the reserve components of the active Army and active Air Force, National Guard forces are unique in that they are the only component in our nation's military structure with a dual mission. The precedent for this lies in that portion of the Constitution of the United States which empowers the several states to raise and maintain a state militia. The Governor is the Commander-in-ehief of the National Guard during peace time. He is responsible for insuring that the Guard is properly trained to accomplish both its state mission and its federal mission. The National Guard's federal mission is to provide fully organized, trained and equipped units capable of immediate mobilization and deployment as part of our national defense forces. National Guard units would report to the active Army and Air Force for assignment anywhere in the world were they needed in the event of mobilization. Once mobilized, the National Guard's Commander-in-ehief is the President of the United States. In its state role, the ational Guard must be fully trained and prepared to deploy anywhere in the state in times of disaster or emergency to protect life and property, and preserve peace, order and public safety. Support To Civil Authorities During fiscal year 1981, for example, Georgia Guardsmen aided citizens during an extremely dry summer, providing water trailers to several communities when their reservoirs ran low or wells went dry. Natural disasters, however, play only one part in the Guard's plan for civil support. In the event of a major disaster or emergency affecting the state, a special section of National Guard headquarters would be called upon to provide necessary military support of all types in response to the emergency. This section designated Plans, Operations and Military Support, has prepared contingency plans to render assistance in a wide variety of situations. Utilizing military forces of all branches which are not at that time designated for essential combat, combat support or self-survival operations, the section would support civil authorities in the event of a nuclear attack. It would also assist civil defense operations in restoring essential facilities] preventing loss of life and alleviating suffering. Additionally, the military support section has plans to use designated National Guard forces to assist local and state authorities in the event of civil disturbances beyond the enforcement capabilities of local law enforcement agencies.

Annual Training (AT) All Army National Guard units conduct a 15-day annual training period each year. The majority of the AT for the Georgia Army Guard is conducted at Fort Stewart although other active Army posts throughout the country are frequently used. Annual training provides the one opportunity of the year for the entire unit to work and train together. Active Army personnel are assigned to each unit to evaluate the overall performance and grade its combat readiness using the same standards that apply to active Army units worldwide. AlI units in the Georgia Army National Guard were rated during FY 81 as combat capable by these standards for the third consecutive year. 20 Armored personnel carriers of the 48th Infantry Brigade roll to the field during annual training.

A member of the Guard's 75th Engineers grades an area at Fort Stewart during annual training. 45 5 Fi cal year 1981 was a significant one for the emergency response division of the Georgia Department of Defense. In March, Gov. George Busbee signed a bill changing the name of the Civil Defense Divi ion to the Georgia Emergency Management Agency (GEMA). The name more clearly defines the role of the agency in insuring the safety and welfare of the state's citizenry. To insure the safety and welfare of Georgians, GEMA has a twofold mission: First, to save life and protect property. Second to restore public services and expedite the recovery and rehabilitation from disaster, whether man-made or natural, in affected areas. To accomplish it mission, GEMA, by law, acts as the central coordinating agency between private and When a disaster is of such severity that local governments cannot adequately respond, requests for aid from the state may be made. Once the request is validated by GEMA official the necessary aid is ~etermined and applied to the situation. A disaster beyond the capability of both local and state emergency response organizations may require aid from the federal government. In such a case the governor would request federal assistance from the President of the United States. The requirement for initial response and recovery action, however, lies with the local government. Organization The agency is divided into nine Statewide, the GEMA program during FY 1981 onsisted of 96 counties with fully q uali fied local organization, eligible to participate in the variou ongoing federal financial a i tance programs. Sixtytwo counties did not meet the technical federal and state qualifications standards during 1981, therefore precluding them from participating in these programs. However, this would not prevent them although not fully qualified from receiving emergency or disaster assistance in the event of a declared emergency or major disaster. Through GEMA coordination under state and federal law, when a disaster is declared, disaster victims and local government entities are eligible for state and federal disaster reli f to assist them in recovering from the consequences of the disaster. Additionally a statewide survey indicates that approximately 25,000 volunteers are ready to assist if called upon. Planning public relief organizations. The agency is also tasked with developing state and local emergency programs as well a supervising them in order to insure completeness and compatibility with national emergency planning. sections including: The Office of the Director, Public Affairs Operations, Planning, Logistics, Training and Standards, State and Local Liaison, Communications and Radiological Defense. The planning function continues to be a major part of the overall emergency management responsibilities of GEMA. Planning efforts for FY 81 encompas ed the entire spectrum of emergency planning from nuclear war to natural disasters accidents and local incidents. The primary planning accomplishment was the continuing progress made in the Federal Emergency Management Agency ational Crisis Relocation Planning Program. During this reporting year, Crisis Relocation Plans were written for the two counties surrounding the King Bay Submarine Base, and for five counties in the Savannah conglomerate. Development of these plans kept Georgia ahead of schedule in crisis relocation planning and 47 provided completed plans for all and Toombs Counties.

Additional benefits derived from working with the CAPDC include development of detailed flood evacuation maps and an intensive hurricane awareness education program for coastal Georgia. Other planning actions during the year have been the commencement of a dam safety program for all counties that are downstream from major dams in the state, and an annual update of the Georgia Natural Disaster Operations Plan. The total planning function was performed by a staff of six planners working under Federal Emergency Management Agency contracts for Nuclear Civil Protection and Natural Disaster Operations Plan Improvement. states nation-wide to complete this sive tasking of state agencies. phase of the program. Sixty "Mini- CRP" plans were written. Of utmost importance to state and federal governments was the development of the Georgia Radio- logical Emergency Plan (REP) to provide effective response to radio- logical emergencies of fixed nuclear facilities. Working closely with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources and the Department of Human Resources, GEMA planners directed their efforts towards com- pletion of the total plan to include annexes for Georgia Power Com- pany's Plant Hatch near Baxley and Alabama Power Company's Plant Farley near Dothan, Ala. adjacent to Early County, Georgia.

Operations The Georgia Emergency Management Agency maintains around-theclock readiness by a constantly manned radio and telephone communications facility, and a duty officer system. This insures that a fully qualified member of the GEMA staff is available to coordinate responses to requests for assistance for an emergency or disaster situation, anywhere in the state. During FY 81 over 1600 local disasters/emergencies were reported in which the staff was directly or indirectly involved either in coordination, providing assistance or guidance. This averages out to approximately four incidents per day. Six field coordinators traveled approximately 100,000 miles and made over 750 visits to local government Emergency Management/Civil Defense agencies during FY 81. These visits were made to evaluate local government preparedness programs, provide emergency preparedness consultant services and, in some cases, emergency assistance when disasters threatened or occurred. The Operations Section monitors potential weather emergencies. In July 1980, as the fiscal year began, threatening heat and drought conditions faced the state. The state requested and received disaster declarations from the Small Business Administration and Farmers Home Administration, for low interest disaster loans for affected individuals in 153 Georgia counties. The State Emergency Operations Center (EOC) was activated on a limited basis to monitor and assist the opening of heat shelters in twenty-one counties. This operation lasted two weeks and involved coordination of relief efforts from volunteer agencies and other state agencies. Hurricane Allen formed in early August 1980 in the same general Frank Brent, State and Local Liaison officer for GEMA, checks with the Georgia Coast during "Hurricane Danny," an exercise held in May to test the state's new hurricane evacuation plan developed by GEMA in cooperation with the Coastal Area Planning and Development Commission. area of the Caribbean where Hurricane David had developed the previous year. Reports of the first few days indicated Allen might be following the same path as Hurricane David. At this point the GEMA director announced "Hurricane Condition Four," an initial hurricane preparedness level. Hurricane Allen's track, however took it away from the coast of Georgia, and GEMA returned to normal readiness conditions. GEMA assisted with the investigation of 15 missing aircraft reports and coordinated Air Force and Civil Air Patrol air search support for 20 private aircraft crash incidents and one military aircraft crash. In addition, reports of five aircraft emergency locator transmitter beacons were reported and resolved. Thirty two incidents involving hazardous materials were reported by local governments. GEMA coordinated response activities with the Department of Natural Resources, Enviromental Protection Division, the response agency in this type incident. Exercises GEMA has plans and procedures to cope with emergency or disaster situations and constantly reviews, tests and improves its preparedness. The agency conducted four major exercises in FY 81. These exercises were specifically to test state and local government preparedness for ,widespread tornado destruction, to test the hurricane evacuation response plan for coastal Georgia, ~nd to test the plan for radiological emergenc~ response to fixed nuclear facility incidents at Plant Hatch in central Georgia and Plant Farley on the Georgia/Alabama border. Disasters and Assistance Public education, emergency services training, preparedness actions, and mitigation efforts can reduce the probability of occurrence of man-caused disasters, and can limit the damaging effects of both man-eaused and natural disasters. Fortunately, the State of Georgia did not experience significant disaster damage in FY 81. High winds and locally heavy precipitation did cause limited damage in some Georgia communities. GEMA arranged assistance from the field coordinators where required, and recorded the incidents in the event that a future disaster in the same area would add to existing damage, thus qualifying the local government for federal disaster assistance. Legislation In the 1981 Georgia General Assem bly two bills were passed affecting the Emergency Management/Civil Defense community in Georgia.

On July 1, 1980, a new evaluation system for local emergency Radiological Defense management agencies was implemented. During the first six months of the federal fiscal year an evaluation, using an Evaluation Checklist, was conducted by the fi~ld coordinators for the area. The completed evaluations were circulated throughout the staff for appropriate action and comment. The local government was then informed of the results with any suggestions from the state office. The second half of the federal fiscal year included an evaluation of the local organization's progress toward achieving the goals it set for itself in the Annual Program Paper. A review will be conducted to evaluate the worth of the program and to make any necessary revisions. The Radiological Defense Office is responsible for developing and maintaining a system of monitoring and processing information throughout the state during a nuclear emergency. This year the State Radiological Defense Officer trained 55 additional radiological defense officers as RADEF advisors to local governments. Federal reimbursement for student expenses was $7,000. In addition, 981 local facilities across the state were located and identified as gathering points for radiological information in the event of a nuclear attack.
