This operational plan presents response options for the evacuation of Inglewood in response to a flood. It is based on information known to the LDMG at the time of development and may require some adjustment when being implemented in an actual event. As such its contents should be applied flexibly and with regard to the specific conditions at the time of activation. No elements of this plan are intended to limit the options available to the LDMG.
