8615.  It is the purpose of the Legislature in enacting this article
to facilitate the rendering of aid to areas stricken by an emergency

Emergency plans duly adopted and approved as provided by the Governor
shall be effective as satisfying the requirement for mutual aid
operational plans provided in the Master Mutual Aid Agreement.



8616.  During any state of war emergency or state of emergency when
the need arises for outside aid in any county, city and county, or
city, such aid shall be rendered in accordance with approved
emergency plans.
   It shall be the duty of public officials to cooperate to the
fullest possible extent in carrying out such plans.




8617.  In periods other than a state of war emergency, a state of
emergency, or a local emergency, state agencies and political
subdivisions have authority to exercise mutual aid powers in
accordance with the Master Mutual Aid Agreement and local ordinances,
resolutions, agreements, or plans therefor.



8618.  Unless otherwise expressly provided by the parties, the
responsible local official in whose jurisdiction an incident
requiring mutual aid has occurred shall remain in charge at such
incident, including the direction of personnel and equipment provided
him through mutual aid.



8619.  The Governor may on behalf of this state enter into
reciprocal aid agreements or compacts, mutual aid plans, or other
interstate arrangements for the protection of life and property with
other states and the federal government, either on a statewide basis
or a political subdivision basis. Prior to committing the personnel,
equipment, or facilities of any political subdivision of this state,
the Governor shall consult with the chief executive or governing body
of such political subdivision. Such mutual aid arrangements may
include the furnishing or exchange, on such terms and conditions as
are deemed necessary, of supplies, equipment, facilities, personnel,
and services.
