Purpose of the Plan : A guide to aid in the coordination of response to
a marine-based Oil/HNS incident; To guide responders through the actions and
decisions required to mount an effective response to a marine-based Oil/HNS incident;
A guide to limit/mitigate the effects of such an event.

Background Context : Legal requirement to produce appropriate
plan (Sea Pollution Act); Number of marine-based incidents around
the coast of Kerry; SEA-PT and Harbour Board plans already
in place.
![Page 8: Oil Spillage Contingency Plan – County Kerry](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062217/568157ef550346895dc56700/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Background Context (Contd.) : County Oil Pollution Officer [COPO] in place
(me!) – appointed by Manager’s Order; Large KCC stock-pile built up over many years
(TVH); Members of SEA-PT; In-house experience (previous incidents, training
etc.)
![Page 9: Oil Spillage Contingency Plan – County Kerry](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062217/568157ef550346895dc56700/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Plan preparation options: Outsource; In-house.
Decision criteria : Budgetary considerations; Data gathering/local knowledge; Availability of in-house knowledge and expertise; Use of standard IRCG format (generic format and data).

project ; Internal and external consultations (state
agencies and departments, NGOs etc.) - limited response;
Data gathering (assets at risk etc.); Literature review (availability of generic
material).

Response Strategies and Plans : What are we dealing with (classification :
type of Oil/HNS)? How much (quantification)? How will it behave in the marine
environment (fate and likely destination)? How might we deal with it (containment
and recovery options)?
![Page 23: Oil Spillage Contingency Plan – County Kerry](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062217/568157ef550346895dc56700/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Tiered Response :
Tier 1 : Background and minor operational spills resulting in shoreline pollution which can be dealt with by the relevant local authority or harbour authority.

Tier 2 : Small-scale incidents where local authority may require mutual aid in order to initiate and maintain a shoreline response
![Page 28: Oil Spillage Contingency Plan – County Kerry](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062217/568157ef550346895dc56700/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
