00:09.579 --> 00:11.930
E O C stands for emergency operation

00:11.939 --> 00:12.939
center .

00:16.930 --> 00:19.319
The purpose of the E O C is to ensure

00:19.329 --> 00:22.579
the safety of the public . The E O C

00:22.590 --> 00:24.646
stands up every time that there is a

00:24.646 --> 00:26.590
launch . It's a partial activation

00:26.590 --> 00:28.812
though it's not a full activation where

00:28.812 --> 00:32.590
every agency is in the E O C . The fire

00:32.599 --> 00:35.540
department is here to ensure that

00:35.549 --> 00:37.869
during launch and post launch that

00:37.880 --> 00:40.047
there are no fires on the pad and then

00:40.047 --> 00:42.102
also in the surrounding area to make

00:42.102 --> 00:44.520
sure that that's good security force is

00:44.529 --> 00:47.439
here to cordon the area off and ensure

00:47.450 --> 00:49.672
that only certain personnel have access

00:49.672 --> 00:53.360
to the launch pad and bio environmental

00:53.369 --> 00:55.520
is here to discuss the potential

00:55.529 --> 00:57.418
hazards with each launch and then

00:57.418 --> 00:59.362
what's associated with the type of

00:59.362 --> 01:03.220
rocket going up . The

01:03.229 --> 01:05.285
purpose of the briefing that we have

01:05.285 --> 01:08.000
prior to the launch is basically to

01:08.010 --> 01:10.177
fill in the E O C director and let him

01:10.177 --> 01:12.690
know that all of the personnel for the

01:12.699 --> 01:14.980
agencies that are present are one good

01:14.989 --> 01:17.300
to go and basically everything is green

01:17.309 --> 01:18.239
lit for the launch .
