Reading Group Meeting Threats’ classification 24/10/2013
Stress (slow/chronic) • Water system degradation • e.g. leakage, infiltration • Resource depletion / • degradation • Skills depletion • Incremental innovation • Budget constraints • Climate change: averages • Urbanisation • Population growth • Demographic change • Consumption patterns • Environmental reg (air/w.q.) • Financial regulation Safe Threats Internal External • Water system failure • e.g. burst, pumps • Accident • Error • Industrial dispute • Climate change: extremes • Natural disaster • Other infrastructure failure • Sabotage • War/riot • Epidemic Based on Westrum (2006); Dawson et al. (2010) SuRe Shock (quick/acute)
1.1 External • Societal (Population growth,…) • Economical (Financial regulation change, …) • Environmental (Extreme climate change, …) • Other infrastructure failure (Power outage, …) • Organisational/Institutional • Communicational • Conflicts (water rights, …) • Regulation • Human-caused • Accidental (car accidents to fire hydrant, …) • Deliberate (terrorist attacks, …) • 1.2 Internal • Infrastructure failure • Operation-related (pump failure, …) • Design-related (physical failure: pipe burst, …) • Cyber-related (error, malfunction, …) • Human-related (error, lack of skill,…) • Financial (budget limitation, …) • Regulation • Human-caused • Accidental • Deliberate (staff strike, …) 1. Origin
2. Temporalityofchange • Shock (quick/ acute) • Stress (slow/chronic) • 3. Predictability • Unpredicted/Unexpected • Predicted/Expected • 4. Occurrence • Single threat • Multiple/simultaneous threats • 5. Likelihood of occurrence • Very high • High • Medium • Low • Very low • 6. Level of Impact (Potentialto disrupt) • Partly disruption • Fully disruption • 7. Severity • Routine/Regular • Disaster/Irregular • Emergency
