Interstate mutual aid may be obtained <br />through direct state -to -state contacts, pursuant to interstate agreements and compacts, or may be coordinated <br />through federal agencies. <br />The statewide mutual aid system includes several discipline -specific mutual aid systems, such as fire and rescue, <br />law enforcement, medical, public works and emergency management. The adoption of SEMS does not alter these <br />existing mutual aid systems; they are consistent with the local government, operational area, regional and state <br />levels within SEMS. The State of California has established six geographic Mutual Aid Regions, divided up by <br />counties, for these mutual aid systems. Orange County and the City of Santa Ana are in Mutual Aid Region I. <br />Discipline -specific mutual aid systems work through designated Mutual Aid Coordinators at the Operational Area, <br />Regional and State levels. The role of a Mutual Aid Coordinator is to receive mutual aid requests, coordinate the <br />provision of resources from within the coordinator's geographic area of responsibility, and pass on unfilled <br />requests to the next geographic level. Mutual aid requests that do not fall into one of the discipline -specific mutual <br />aid systems are handled by Emergency Management staff at each SEMS jurisdictional level. <br />Mutual Aid Coordinators generally function from the appropriate jurisdictional -level EOC when that EOC is <br />activated, to facilitate coordination and information flow. Some incidents require mutual aid but may not require <br />activation of EOCs, because of the incident's limited impacts. In such cases, Mutual Aid Coordinators typically <br />handle requests from their normal work location. When EOCs are activated, all activated discipline -specific <br />122 <br />
