	A NET would activate their Operations Plan ("Ops Plan") in response to a regional disaster that causes widespread damage and knocks out conventional communications and causing a team to [[Activation Protocols: Self-deployment\|self-deploy]]. In other words, a catastrophic earthquake or (however unlikely) an [https://www.economist.com/the-world-if/2017/07/13/the-disaster-that-could-follow-from-a-flash-in-the-sky EMP burst]. For all other disasters and emergencies (such as extreme weather, floods, etc.), the expectation is that PBEM deploys and manages volunteers. In fact, calling a team's Ops Plan their "Earthquake Plan" would not be out of line.

	Nevertheless, the process a team undertakes to produce an Ops Plan and keep it up to date benefits the community beyond preparation for an earthquake. Building an Ops Plan takes close research into the community's resilience, and that data can help inform PBEM policy decisions around how best to prepare Portland's different neighborhoods.
