Camps are required to develop their own emergency plans.
Just two days before devastating floods claimed at least 27 lives at Camp Mystic, the Texas Department of State Health Services signed off on the youth camp’s emergency plans, according to records obtained by ABC News.
An inspection report dated July 2 indicates that state inspectors noted the camp had emergency plans “in case of a disaster” in place and that staff and volunteers were briefed on the plans during training sessions and volunteer briefings.
