Activity 1.1 Post-Impact Phase Activities and Actions
Post-Impact	This is that period of time following on from the onset of the event when recovery strategies are activated to deal with the immediate and ongoing demands of the emergency/disaster. 

Because of the nature of recovery type activities, this period may commence at the same time or very soon after the impact phase commences and where the impact phase may only last for a relatively short period, the post-impact phase might last for quite a long time after the event occurs, months and maybe even years afterwards. Activities within the post-impact phase often relate to short, medium and longer term restitution and recovery of the community impacted by the event to a state of “normality” which may be altered from that which existed prior to the event occurring, but is aimed at putting the community back on its feet and in control of its own future.
