Emergency Operations Plan
The Cabarrus County Emergency Operation Plan (EOP) is a guide for County disaster preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation operations. The EOP consists of the basic plan and 18 functional annexes. These annexes define responsibilities and actions of County government personnel during emergency situations.
Each response agency has a specific mission. By defining this mission we reduce confusion and conflict during emergency operations. The plan decreases the risk to the public and their property. The plan also considers planning and response activities related to:
- children
- those with functional needs
- household pets and service animals
Emergency Operation Plans meets the requirements of the following:
- Department of Homeland Security,
- State and local planning guidance
- Legal responsibilities as identified in NC General Statutes, Chapter 166-A.
This EOP contains the required elements to ensure that Cabarrus County can fulfill its legal responsibilities for emergency preparedness.
Parts of the plan related to terrorism are not available to the public.

Hazard Mitigation Plan
Natural and manmade hazards are a part of the world around us. We can prevent disasters if we can reduce the impact of hazards on our built environment. Hazard mitigation is the concept and practice of reducing risks to people and property from known hazards.
The Cabarrus Stanly Union Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan was developed in accordance with current state and federal rules. Regulations governing local hazard mitigation plans were adopted by each participating and local jurisdiction according to standard local procedures.
