Local ESF-8 Events

DEP Logistics supports annual state and local events by request. This includes setting up a mobile hospital tent for medical support of Air shows. We provide resource support for state and local fairs, as well as the Infectious Disease Summit.

Public Health Resource Report

In addition to event support, the primary function of DEP Logistics is to provide the resource support for a public health response. Scott County HIV, East Chicago Lead, H1N1, COVID-19 and Hep A clinics are some of the responses which DEP supported. This often requires coordination with other health divisions such as Immunizations, Epidemiology, Lead and others.
