The Problem (uncoordinated advice/information) OSC

How do REET and the SST Differ? Regional Environmental Emergencies Team Scientific Support Team  Standing Regional Team Fed. & Provincial Agencies Fed. & Provincial Agencies Private industry Private industry  Agencies retain inherent authorities.  “Chaired”  Solutions are voted on-OSC receives single course of action  Policy questions are addressed  Ad Hoc National Team NOAA ERD (Home & Away Teams) Integrates other science groups (RP, state, academic, Environmental Unit) Leverages local knowledge  “Coordinated”  Consensus based - OSC receives all perspectives, with recommendations  SST Integrates throughout the command  SST has no inherent authority  Policy questions are not addressed by the SST.

The original concept  Joint decisions in the IRZ  Exchange of experts and expertise  Open and regular communication between teams (planning & response phases)  Cross-Command Briefings  Data Sharing  Unified Voice in the IRZ OSCJRT CANADA REET (including support) Agencies and experts (including support) US SCIENTIFIC SPECIAL FORCES USA JEERT

Canadian Response Zone US Response Zone International Response Zone International Spill Response Three Separate Responses

International Response Zone  Where actions or in-actions in one country impact the other country.  Established during the event via discussions between the NOAA SSC and the Chair of REET. I.R.Z. Approach the impact area as a shared ecological system, rather than two independent national areas.

Proposed International Workshops (Mid-1990’s)  Priority Protection Areas  Joint Modeling  Fisheries & Aquaculture  Community Priorities  Wildlife Protection & Rescue

Goal: Begin to develop consensus on environmental priorities and pre-plan oil spill protection and clean-up objectives/strategies Session focussed on components of the natural environment. Socio- economic and cultural addressed in subsequent workshop

International Workshops  Priority Protection Areas Joint workshop in 2002Joint workshop in 2002  Joint Modeling Model developed (1st of its kind)Model developed (1st of its kind) 2007 Modelers Summit planned (Sept.)2007 Modelers Summit planned (Sept.)  Fisheries & Aquaculture 2004 Workshop2004 Workshop 2007 Workshop planned (Sept.)2007 Workshop planned (Sept.)  Community Priorities 2004 Workshop2004 Workshop  Wildlife Protection & Rescue 2004 Workshop2004 Workshop Wildlife Plan under active developmentWildlife Plan under active development

Future Needs  Joint protocols for closing & opening fisheries  Joint Shoreline Cleanup Assessment Technique protocols  Formalize and memorialize the priority protection areas  Joint protection and recovery strategies.
