Study Notes
Civil Disturbance Operation Procedure (CDOP)
- Purpose: To provide a plan of action for civil disturbance operations, enhance mobilization of personnel and equipment and integrate with other agencies (Hamilton County police agencies, Ohio National Guard, Ohio State Highway Patrol, and federal troops).
-
Policy: During a Phase II through a Phase IV:
- Curtail routine police duties
- Direct rumors and information related to civil disturbances to the Regional Emergency Operations Center (REOC)
- Assign personnel to command officers and supervisors
- Request help from internal or external sources through the REOC
- 12-hour shifts may be implemented, and off-days, off-time and vacations may be cancelled.
-
Operational Zones:
- Green Zone: Areas not involved in hostile activities, normal activities continue here. Fire Department personnel can respond without police escort.
- Yellow Zone: Areas where hostile activities are likely to develop, monitor personnel safety closely, fire department may request police escort.
- Red Zone: Areas where civil disorder is happening, fire department personnel can only enter with a police escort.
