every county in OK has a Emergency Response Director I think or atleast an individual assigned to those tasks. they plan for numerous SHTF situations.
F5 tornado's
massive land fires
oil/gas disasters
etc..etc...

Their plan is mostly to hole up in the emergency command center and issue "You're ALL gonna die" bulletins!

Then pat each other on the back when its all over.

Wait for  the feds

Ours does
The written plan runs over 600 pages, so I won't be forwarding it
By the time the County Judge reads all that, I expect the emergency to be over

Some years ago, and a couple residences ago, my girlfriend was briefly a contractor picked up by the County (on the strength of a recommendation from a former boss of mine, oddly) to help with a review of their Continuity of Operations/Continuity of Government planning. That is, their "How do we make sure that bare essential functions keep going in various levels of disaster?" plan.

I don't recall how it ended up, but she was pretty disgusted with what she saw at the beginning.

They are supposed to, but It depends on the county some are way better than others.
Some you better pray you are nowhere near if something happens because they are so fucked up.

8 miles away, and you're below its level, and you came to the conclusion that a flood is impossible?

Exactly how big is this dam? What calculations did you use to come up with idea that you won't be flooded?  I'm assuming you have a strong scientific background with a lot of physics thrown in...

We were flooded out once, the dam was a LOT fucking further away than 8 miles, it damn near washed the town away.
We had 6' of water going through our lands.

County dependent, I’d imagine.

Our county has protocols for natural disasters.

My wife works for local county (payroll)  During the hurricanes they had a solid what to do plan every department had a plan. Non essential personal (payroll) did not have to report in until all power was restored and things returned to normal.

Critical infrastructure and "key peeps" (basically highest level politicians and their fams in your AO).

Everyone else is on their own. Anything needed can and will be commandeered for the "public" (key peeps) good.

Not so important political peeps will make cameo appearances at ICS. Maybe catch a ride on a choppa for a photo op.

Here in South Florida we have pretend ( Facade ) emergency plans in place... EOC here is dilusional...

No way do we have the resources available to handle major EOW catastrophe or any major SHTF emergencies...

We have service for moderate to intermediate emergencies but nothing to handle the huge population of the elderly or needy...

50% of the people around here would die in the first 90 days.

No one around here knows how to survive with-out their I phone / Android devices.

Once the power goes out and people lose the connection to the internet it’s SHTF time x 10 with no plans in place...

LOL, this reminds me of back about 20 years ago, our local paper ran an article on how the local EMS and Fire Dept. were prepared for any environmental disaster.

The very next month, a semi ran over a car (I mean ran over it and left a wheel track down the drivers side), killed the driver, and went into my dad's pond that has a creek running into and out of it.

Diesel fuel was pouring into the pond, and the local EMS manager was at the wreck scene. I asked how they were going to stop the diesel going down the creek, and he had a deer in headlights look.

The finally wound up hiring a private contractor from a town 60 miles away to clean up the fuel contaminated dirt and put out absorbent floats in the pond (AFTER most of the fuel ran down the creek. )

Yeah, really prepared....

Probably only the top 10 richest counties in the nation have the financial resources to even try to do that.  Plans are one thing -  having the cash, people, vehicles and practiced logistics is a totally different beast.

Our county will train civilians in disaster recovery, basic first aid and the final is a mass trauma exercise.  Since we so many Fed agencies and proximity to DC, probably some plans in place.

Texas County has some good people in charge of emergency management.

I am 2 hours west of DC. From the people I know who work at the county Gov the plan involves what to do when a 500000 people escape DC and head our way.

Involves turning the fairgrounds into a FEMA camp and that's about it.

When that happens i know I'll have several thousand FSA invading the local Walmart to clean it out.

My plan is what to do when the refugees make their way out to the rest of the country where I am and try to take over.

Is your RACES like our CERT teams?  Community/Citizen's Emergency Response Team, it's composed of citizens who volunteer and receive basic disaster training.  They organize by block and neighborhood and would do most of the checking on old folks, disaster damage survey, etc.  We, as in police, use them as a "force multiplier" and they have their own comms based on ham radio volunteers.  I attend many of their meetings and help with some of the training, but Fire is the main liaison and trainers, for obvious reasons.

California, as screwed up as it is, has disaster management down.  The hurricane Katrina fiasco was largely caused by the ineptitude of the Louisiana Governor and New Orleans mayor.  If Gavin Newsom and every other politician in CA suddenly got nuked, I could run the incident with a Fire Battalion Chief, depending on whether it was a crime or an act of war and we would get through it.  We, CA government, used SEMS and ICS, long before the Feds decided to implement NIMS after 911.

My county and city back home do

I agree with your wife.

I don’t know what the states plan is, but my plan is BBQ and spend time sitting on the front porch.

So you telling us your wife is the brain's of the operation.

every city has a disaster plan

Yes...beg, whine, and cry for the gov of the state to call out the national guard. Hopefully, before the burning and looting happens in their neighborhood.

Of course every State, County and City have SHTF plans.  Most of these are only a passing narrative to some simple and worthless steps that they may take.  Bottom line is that any "real" SHTF event would overwhelm all govt entities including the Feds.  I am confident that most know this, especially the feds.  A real event like a nation wide EMP would end with 80-90% of the population dead within a year or so.  You have to plan to do what you can and not expect any help.

After Katrina I would probably agree.

For "end of the world"?

LOL, no one plans for that. It would be useless, by definition.

Best thing in that case is to plan for a helluva party.

t

This. What I thinks

All gas stations, food stores will get seized,Some sooner than later

I do think plans of siezure are SOPs

It depends on the jurisdiction/agency.  Not all governments are created equal.

I have a plan to redistribute needed supplies.

I write continuity plans for small cites and counties that cannot afford a full time Emergency Management office. .  I'm also an ICS instructor. Decent money.  
Folks are confusing continuity planning with disaster planning.  They are not the same.

The COOP ensures the survival of whatever agency.  Everybody has one.  Even your local library or water dept. Not only govt agencies either, private  industry is big on COOP as well.  It does not have to be a major disaster, an agency will activate it's COOP if a water pipe breaks in the ceiling and floods the building.

The DP ensures the survival of everybody else that agency serves. THAT's where the big money and resources comes in.

COOPs and DP writeups  are mandated under federal law and exercised/updated on a regular basis. There are three levels of testing  an agency must regularly undergo or Uncle Sam gets pissed.

BTW< no one give a shit about your guns and preps.  You can stop building that bunker now.

Went to my county’s SHTF planning meeting and it began and ended with the welfare class, keeping them fed and watered and housed to keep them from causing problems.

Everyone else will rebuild if the welfare class isn’t causing trouble was the underlined/unspoken understanding.

My county does

My observation has been that most counties/cities have a written plan of some sort for a small number of emergency types. In our city they have a specific plan for tornado, hazmat spill, and hurricane. The rest would be pretty much ad-hoc. Even then, they are limited in the response they can support and assume that the FEMA cavalry will arrive within 72 hours. Even there, most cities/counties that I've seen don't have backup power for water pumping and sewage processing. Those that do have limited fuel for them. Our city had generators at the water towers and the neighborhood sewage pumping stations during the last 2 big hurricanes. But, they had limited fuel and had to refuel almost daily.

One thing I've noticed since my experience in PR: None of the EM folks have a good fall-back plan for a sudden widespread power outage, particularly one that might be compounded by damage to the communications infrastructure. Lots of departments have taken advantage of .gov cheese grants to get fancy new digital comms systems. Problem is, those are worth bupkis when power is out for an extended period or damage to the repeaters, land lines and cell towers occurred. I saw it in spades in PR and it even happened more recently with Michael coming ashore in the panhandle of Florida. Cell towers and UHF/VHF repeaters were offline and first responders had no way to communicate more than a few miles, if at all. Even one of the EOCs was cut off during Michael and one of the SHARES operators was able to contact a ham near the EOC to go find out and report their status back to SHARES who fed it back to FEMA.

If you want to get an idea of the magnitude of the problem, a good read can be found here: Catastrophic Power Outage Note that the notion of a national-level grid down used to be considered ridiculous until nefarious actors managed to break in to grid control systems in 24 states back in 2017. Obviously, the fact that 3.4 million people in Puerto Rico got cut off from civilization did not go unnoticed by some folks in the emergency management arena.

The notion that a local entity can handle anything that happens locally is simply not realistic. That's why most are set up to try to stabilize the situation until help and resources can arrive from elsewhere. In a national-level SHTF, help likely won't be forthcoming. That's why it's important for individuals/families to be self-sustaining for at least 2 weeks to a month or more. Heck, in PR, there was no gasoline being transported at all until the end of the 2nd week after Maria and only then to hospitals and first responders.

Have your stuff and a plan to be self-sustaining for a good while. You may never have to go 2 weeks (or 2 months) without any outside resources, but if you do, you'll be glad you were prepared.

Do those folks know they've been earmarked as victims already?

That sounds pretty pessimistic in numbers.

However, I do know that there are some pretty significant plans in place around here.  We've got 14 million or thereabouts people in Southern California and if we ever have a really really big earthquake, keeping that many people fed and watered and pooped is going to be a headache of some magnitude.

The Feds have been generous with $$ for preps for years, and unlike most of the anti-big government, the Feds are the devil types around here, most counties will accept those $$.

The county I live in, in Utah doesn’t even have body bags for us.
