Initial ResponseBridge Failures in Memphis
• Initial response starts locally• MFD, MPD, Shelby County SO, West Memphis FD, Desoto County,
ext..
• State assets (TN and AR)
• Sector (SLMR) assets (USCG)
• Scenario Specific Concerns• Large event impacting wide geographic area
• Multiple disaster scenes competing for resources• Expect vessel/facility incidents (port/non-port, pollution, navigation hazards)
• Loss of resources and ability to get them to the scene
• Wide scale communications failure
• Loss of SLMR command structure (Implement COOP)

Semper Paratus
Initial ResponseBarkley Lock and Dam
• Initial response starts locally• Local USACE resources (assessment)
• MSU Paducah (small boats) (command post)
• Local city, county, and state resources• At least three vessels possibly available
• Possible use of county mobile command center
• Scenario Specific Concerns• Fleet breakaways
• Other associated incidents (pollution)

Semper Paratus
• USCG - Lead Federal Agency for MTS - facilitator of recovery• Coordination with stakeholders is critical
• USACE retains responsibility for clearing channel
• Goal: Resumption of commerce
• Key elements of the MTS recovery process • MTS Stabilization
• Short-term (<90 days): MTS operations available at some level • Focus: waterways, navigation systems, ports, critical infrastructure, and
monitoring systems
• Long-term (>90 days): MTS to pre-incident operation
• Process implemented, via ICS, using a UC and/or UAC
• MTSRU is vital element within the UC/UAC

Semper Paratus
Marine Transportation System Recovery Unit (MTSRU)
• MTSRU Roles and Responsibilities • Track, document and report MTS status in CART*
• CART data supports Situation Unit
• Understand critical recovery pathways
• Develop and recommend COAs• Supports Planning Section Chief in developing IAP
• Includes salvage, dredging, cleanup, recovery of ATON recommendations
• Input point for MTS stakeholders• Crucial in feeding CART
• Develop/recommend priorities for cargo flow/resumption of vessel movement
• Identify long-term recovery issues and needs
• MTSRU is not responsible for determining economic impact

Semper Paratus
Common Assessment Reporting Tool (CART)
• Primary means of reporting impacts to/recovery of MTS• Automated reports support higher HQ reporting requirements
• Essential Elements of Information (EEI)• Five categories of EEIs
• Waterways and Navigation – ATON/Channels
• Port Area Critical Infrastructure – Facilities/Bridges
• Port Area Vessels – SPV/CFV/Ferries/Gaming
• Monitoring Systems – R21/PORTS/NOAA
• Offshore Energy – Production Platforms

• USACE specialized and technical support outside District/Divisions
• MTSRU integrated within UCs• MTSRU elements could be incorporated in a UAC
• Priorities (Notional)• MTS Assessment (Includes supporting critical infrastructure)
• Mitigation (pollution)
• Salvage (Clear waterway)
• ATONs
• Support recovery of associated MTS

Scene Specific Recovery Concerns
• Memphis• Support (Resources) for operations extremely limited
• Support (Staging) from a distance
• UAC priorities may divert what resources are available
• RPs overwhelmed
• Outside influence on prioritization
• Supporting port infrastructure availability• Physical impacts on facilities/vessels as well as reduction in available
workforce
• Barkley Lock and Dam• Flooding along the Cumberland
• Rapid Rise of Ohio
