​"East Baton Rouge Parish All-Hazards Recovery Plan" Overview
 

East Baton Rouge Parish continues ongoing recovery efforts from a Federally Declared Disaster that happened over one year ago, also known as The August 2016 Flood. It was during our Parish After Action Review that subject matter experts determined there was a need for a Parish-wide Recovery Plan, expansion of the current Recovery Annex within the East Baton Rouge Parish Emergency Operations Plan (EOP).

During the 2018 State of the City-Parish Address, Mayor-President Sharon Weston Broome announced her initiative to develop and adopt an All Hazards Community Recovery Plan for East Baton Rouge Parish. Mayor-President Broome's vision for recovery planning is to follow guidelines set forth by the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF). Planning efforts will incorporate all four East Baton Rouge Parish Municipalities as well as the unincorporated areas of the Parish.
