  1. Distant Tsunami Response Discussion Northwest Area Committee November 15, 2011

  2. Incident Tsunami waves from an Alaskan quake have caused a 10’ surge along the Oregon Coast damaging public facilities, especially port and harbor facilities. The Port of Newport has been severely damaged shutting it down for at least 72 hours. Numerous smaller surges are occurring every 4 to 6 hours.

  3. Goals and Objectives Discuss Interagency Roles, Responsibilities, and Coordination of Response to Tsunami Incident Identify Safety Constraints and Impact on Response & Timing (i.e. Evacuation/Re-Entry) Discuss roles, responsibilities for coordination of potential HAZMAT incidents following tsunami…and how they will impact and be impacted by different components of the response Identify resources needed from RRT/NRT

  4. Discussion Format… Each agency is asked to discuss their roles and responsibilities for each mission/incident scenario Please be brief so that we can cover as many of the response components as possible Consider the timing of your agency’s response over the first 24…48…72 hours …2nd-week

  5. Agency Brief Panel to discuss: • Agency Roles and Responsibilities in response • Resources available and the timing of arrival… • Agency Capabilities and Constraints • Initial Actions

  6. Evolution of the Response… Transition from Evacuation to SAR to Salvage and HazMat Response…timing Timing/Impact of Stafford Act Declaration Interagency Coordination and Public Communication Long-Term Assessment and Collection /Disposal of HazMat

  7. Response Components: Establish Command and Control…ICPs? Evacuation Coordination/Re-Entry SAR Ops Harbor Stabilization/Restoration for Response Cannery Release LPG Plant Release Long-Term HazMat Collection/Disposal

  8. Response Components: Establish Command and Control + ICP(s)? • Agencies Responsible/Assisting • Timing • Impact of Evolving Incident • Resources/Limitations?

  9. Response Components: Evacuation Coordination/Re-Entry • Agencies Responsible/Assisting • Timing • Impact of Evolving Incident • Resources/Limitations?

  10. Response Components: SAR Ops • Agencies Responsible/Assisting • Timing • Impact of Evolving Incident • Resources/Limitations?

  11. Response Components: Harbor Stabilization • Agencies Responsible/Assisting • Timing • Impact of Evolving Incident • Resources/Limitations?

  12. Response Components: Cannery Release • Agencies Responsible/Assisting • Timing • Impact of Evolving Incident • Resources/Limitations?

  13. Response Components: LPG Release • Agencies Responsible/Assisting • Timing • Impact of Evolving Incident • Resources/Limitations?

  14. Response Components: Long-Term HazMat Collection/Disposal • Agencies Responsible/Assisting • Timing • Impact of Evolving Incident • Resources/Limitations?

  15. Overview of Initial Response Take home lessons from discussion… Stafford Act hurdles…

  16. Resources Required from RRT/NRT Specialized Teams? Specialized Assets? Mismatches between need and availability?
