The Plan has been prepared to provide key officials, agencies and departments within Bruce Township, Kincardine Township, the Village of Tiverton, the Bruce Nuclear Power Development, and Bruce County, with a general guideline to the expected initial response to an emergency, and an overview of their responsibilities during an emergency. Any emergency situation is unique, so that it is not possible to precisely define the actions required by any local, County, or Provincial agency who may be involved in emergency response. It is important, then, that the elements of this Plan be implemented with common sense recognizing the situation at hand and the capabilities of those agencies involved. For this Plan to be effective it is important that all concerned be made aware of its provisions and that every official, agency and department be prepared to carry out their assigned functions and responsibilities to the best of their ability in an emergency. This Plan is introduced into law under the authority of the Emergency Plans Act, 1983. )¿~ &, Reeve Township of Bruce ~L~1jf7 , Reevd Township of Kincardine (ý~~~.~ Clerk-Treasurer Township of Bruce /;6 IllS: Date µÞ ~k- Date &L #~/ ~/~u"~/~Á Date lerk-Treasu r Township of Kincardine I,-ç.~. 9hs- Date' Date Reeve Village of Tiverton ~L Director ~ Heavy Water Division Bruce Nuclear Power Development Date Clerk-Treasurer Village of Tiverton a 8/9~ Da{e Municipal Emergency Plan
