Issues
Organizational– How do we effectively organize to implement
National Response Plan requirements and other NOAA disaster response mandates?
Technical– What level of integration should we strive for?– How do we identify and establish research priorities?– What are the most critical research to operations
issues?
Strategic– How do we develop legislative and budget strategies
for infrequent, high consequence disasters?

Strategic Disaster Preparedness
NOAA Responds to Disasters (Emergencies)
• Extreme Weather Events • Oil and Chemical Spills• Marine Animal Strandings• Vessel Groundings• Harmful Algal Blooms• Hazards to Navigation• Tsunamis• National Special Security• Coral Disease/ Bleaching• Natural Resource Damage

Safe Sanctuaries 2005
The Scenario: On April 18, 2005 at 2200 EDT, an 800-foot cargo vessel, M/V Portsmith Trader carrying 1,200,000 gallons of fuel ran aground near Elbow Reef in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. The vessel injures both ecological and historical resources, has two releases of oil, and potentially unstable cargo.

Safe Sanctuaries 2005
Demonstrate NOAA human and technological capabilities and ability to integrate and communicate.
Exercise NOAA response plans, protocols and procedures for deploying technical capabilities and expertise.
Build relationships that foster long-term collaboration on incident response.
Provide training in emergency response, incident command system, Hazwopper and field safety.

Lessons– Exercises are a decisive opportunity for NOAA to
understand operational approach, capabilities, limitations, support requirements, and methods of interactions.
– The exercise scale and complexity provided an opportunity for integrating across NOAA programs not possible with a smaller exercise or one lead by another organization.
– Safety training, safety protocols, and the on-scene safety organization require a comprehensive and integrated NOAA plan for emergency response.
![Page 13: Safe Sanctuaries 2005 NOAA Emergency Response A Presentation to the NOAA Science Advisory Board](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070417/56815527550346895dc305c2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Safe Sanctuaries 2005
Lessons (continued)
– Use of real weather and oceanographic conditions significantly contributed to the experience of participants and the lessons learned from the exercise.
– Fully exploiting the development of geo-spatial data requires that NOAA programs develop or adopt common standards, data structures, data interchange, and data display protocols.

Linkages to IOOS – Identify observing system requirements and gaps for
emergency response operations;
– Develop rapid deployment capabilities to supplement the national backbone;
– Designate National Marine Sanctuaries as sentinel sites;
– Integrate data streams across disciplines, institutions, time scales, and locations;
– Couple operational models with observations, develop ensemble models; and
– Develop a Common Operational Picture for environmental conditions.

Issues
• Organizational– How do we effectively organize to implement National
Response Plan requirements and other NOAA disaster response mandates?
• Technical– What level of integration for which we should strive?– How do we formally identify and establish research
priorities?– What are the most critical research to operations issues?
• Strategic– How do we develop legislative and budget strategies for
infrequent, high consequence disasters?
