We agree to assist and cooperate with all other emergency transportation and rescue providers in the event of a disaster according to the provision of the regional disaster plans. The direction of services shall be handled by the primary provider who normally services the area. It shall coordinate this responsibility with the disaster personnel responsible for carrying out local and regional disaster plans upon their arrival. 3.
