I DENTIFY P OTENTIAL E VENTS P REPAREDNESS : I DENTIFY P OTENTIAL E VENTS R ESPONDERS IDENTIFY POTENTIAL EVENTS AND THEIR LIKELIHOOD FOR THE SPECIFIC SITE, UP TO AND INCLUDING THE CREDIBLE WORST CASE. I DENTIFY P OTENTIAL E VENTS : T HROUGH THE IDENTIFICATION OF POTENTIAL EVENTS, RESPONDERS MAY IDENTIFY AND IMPLEMENT FURTHER PREVENTION MEASURES THAT WILL REDUCE THE CHANCE OF SPILLS. I MPROVE P REVENTION : R ESPONDERS DEFINE POTENTIAL OIL SPILL RISKS.

P LAN S CENARIOS P REPAREDNESS : P LAN S CENARIOS R ESPONDERS SELECT THE EVENTS THAT ENCOMPASS THE FULL RANGE OF IMPACT AND RESPONSE CHALLENGES FOR THE SPECIFIC SITE IN ORDER TO DEVELOP PLANNING SCENARIOS. P LANNING S CENARIOS : E ACH PLANNING SCENARIO INCLUDES : E VENT O IL TYPE AND VOLUME S PILL PROFILE P REDICTED BEHAVIOR OF SPILL AND FATE OF OIL I MPACTED ENVIRONMENTS AND COMMUNITIES S CENARIO C HARACTERISTICS : U SING THE IDENTIFIED EVENTS, RESPONDERS DEFINE APPROPRIATE SPILL PLANNING SCENARIOS.

D EVELOP R ESPONSE S TRATEGIES P REPAREDNESS : D EVELOP R ESPONSE S TRATEGIES R ESPONSE STRATEGIES ARE DEVELOPED FOR EACH PLANNING SCENARIO AND INCORPORATE STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT. R ESPONSE STRATEGIES ADDRESS THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS : W HAT TECHNIQUES ARE NEEDED ? H OW MUCH OF EACH TECHNIQUE IS NEEDED ? W HAT IS THE RESPONSE TIMEFRAME ? H OW WILL THE RESPONSE ADAPT OVER TIME ? R ESPONSE S TRATEGY : T HE RESPONSE STRATEGIES ARE UNDERPINNED BY NEBA, WHICH IS CONDUCTED DURING THE PREPAREDNESS PROCESS TO IDENTIFY THE BEST CHOICES THAT MINIMIZE IMPACTS OF OIL SPILLS ON PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT. O THER CONSIDERATIONS OF THE RESPONSE STRATEGIES INCLUDE APPLICABLE REGULATIONS AND THE EFFECTIVENESS AND FEASIBILITY OF INVOLVED TECHNIQUES. N ET E NVIRONMENTAL B ENEFIT A NALYSIS (NEBA): R ESPONDERS DEVELOP RESPONSE STRATEGIES BASED ON THE PLANNING SCENARIOS.

P REPAREDNESS : P ROVISION R ESOURCES R ESPONDERS USE THE PRINCIPLES OF T IERED P REPAREDNESS AND R ESPONSE TO CATEGORIZE AND STRUCTURE LEVELS OF OIL SPILL RESPONSE CAPABILITIES TO ALLOW FOR RESPONSE ESCALATION. R ESOURCES ARE PROVISIONED, ACCORDING TO THE RESPONSE PLAN, AT VARYING LEVELS BASED ON SPILL SCENARIO REQUIREMENTS AND HOW QUICKLY RESOURCES WILL BE NEEDED AND CAN BE ACCESSED. T HESE PRINCIPLES ENABLE RESPONDERS TO PLAN FOR APPROPRIATE REGIONAL AND GLOBAL RESOURCES TO BE MOBILIZED RAPIDLY AND CASCADED FOR AN EFFECTIVE RESPONSE TO A SPILL OF ANY MAGNITUDE. T IERED P REPAREDNESS AND R ESPONSE : I NDUSTRY MEMBERS PROVISION THE FOLLOWING RESPONSE RESOURCES DURING THE PREPAREDNESS PROCESS : R ESPONDERS G ENERAL EQUIPMENT S PECIALIZED TOOLS AND SERVICES S UBJECT MATTER EXPERTISE I NDUSTRY R ESOURCES : I NDUSTRY MEMBERS MAY ENTER INTO MUTUAL AID OR COOPERATIVE AGREEMENTS WITH OTHER LOCAL MEMBERS TO BOLSTER THEIR OWN CAPABILITIES THROUGH THE SHARING OF INDUSTRY RESOURCES. M UTUAL A ID AND C OOPERATION : I NDUSTRY MEMBERS PROVISION RESOURCES APPROPRIATE TO THE PRE - PLANNED RESPONSE STRATEGIES USING THE PRINCIPLES OF T IERED P REPAREDNESS AND R ESPONSE. P ROVISION R ESOURCES

T RAINING AND E XERCISES P REPAREDNESS : T RAINING AND E XERCISES S TAFF ARE TRAINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THEIR RESPONSE PLAN AND IN THEIR DESIGNATED ROLES FOR SPILL RESPONSE ACTIVITIES. T RAINING : T YPICAL TRAINING AND EXERCISE PARTICIPANTS INCLUDE : S PILL MANAGEMENT TEAM F IELD RESPONDERS R EGULATORS S TAKEHOLDERS P ARTICIPANTS : E XERCISES ENABLE PARTICIPANTS TO WORK TOGETHER IN CONDUCTING SIMULATED RESPONSES TO HYPOTHETICAL INCIDENTS IN ORDER TO DEMONSTRATE PROFICIENCY AND VALIDITY OF RESPONSE PLANS.

I NITIAL D EPLOYMENT R ESPONSE : I NITIAL D EPLOYMENT F OLLOWING A SPILL, LOCAL RESOURCES ARE IMMEDIATELY DEPLOYED TO MITIGATE INITIAL IMPACTS, REDUCE THE SPREAD OF OIL, AND PROTECT THE SAFETY OF PEOPLE. I NITIAL D EPLOYMENT : A PPROPRIATE STAKEHOLDERS, SUCH AS GOVERNMENT REGULATORS AND COMMUNITY LEADERS, RECEIVE ALERTS AND NOTIFICATIONS IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING A SPILL, INITIATING THEIR ENGAGEMENT WITH THE SPECIFIC INCIDENT. A LERTS AND N OTIFICATIONS : R ESPONDERS ASSESS THE INCIDENT SCALE AND IMPACT POTENTIAL IN PARALLEL WITH THE INITIAL DEPLOYMENT. I NITIAL A SSESSMENT AND C LASSIFICATION : I N MANY RESPONSES, THERE IS A CRITICAL “ WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY ”, AFTER WHICH THE OIL SPREADS TO VERY MINISCULE THICKNESSES THAT MAY COMPROMISE RESPONSE EFFECTIVENESS. T IME IS OF THE ESSENCE AND, THEREFORE, PRE - APPROVAL OF RESPONSE STRATEGIES IS ESSENTIAL. I MPORTANCE OF T IME : W HEN A SPILL OCCURS, RESPONDERS IMMEDIATELY DEPLOY LOCAL RESOURCES AND ASSESS THE INCIDENT POTENTIAL.

C ONFIRM R ESPONSE S TRATEGY R ESPONSE : C ONFIRM R ESPONSE S TRATEGY R ESPONDERS MATCH THE ACTUAL SPILL TO THE CLOSEST PLANNING SCENARIO. M ATCH TO S CENARIOS : T HE CHOICES MADE DURING THE PREPAREDNESS PROCESS, BASED ON NEBA, ARE VALIDATED ONCE A SPILL HAS OCCURRED. T HESE CHOICES CONFIRM THE SELECTION OF THE BEST AVAILABLE RESPONSE OPTIONS THAT MINIMIZE IMPACTS OF THE OIL SPILL ON PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT. N ET E NVIRONMENTAL B ENEFIT A NALYSIS (NEBA): A FTER MATCHING THE SPILL, RESPONDERS CONFIRM APPLICABILITY OF THE CORRESPONDING PRE - PLANNED RESPONSE STRATEGY AND INITIATE ITS IMPLEMENTATION. T HIS ENSURES UTILIZATION OF THE MOST EFFECTIVE RESPONSE TECHNIQUES FROM THE OUTSET. C ONFIRM R ESPONSE S TRATEGY : T HE PRE - PLANNED RESPONSE STRATEGY IS ADAPTED ONLY BY EXCEPTION, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT ANY UNFORESEEN FACTORS AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE SPILL. A DAPT BY E XCEPTION : F OLLOWING THE INITIAL DEPLOYMENT, THE ACTUAL SPILL IS MATCHED TO THE PLANNING SCENARIOS AND THE ACCOMPANYING RESPONSE STRATEGY IS CONFIRMED.

O RGANIZE R ESPONSE R ESPONSE : O RGANIZE R ESPONSE O RGANIZING THE RESPONSE ENTAILS PROCURING THE APPROPRIATE RESOURCES, INCLUDING THE ESTABLISHMENT OF AN APPROPRIATELY SIZED SPILL MANAGEMENT TEAM, THAT ALLOW FOR PRUDENT OVERREACTION TO THE INCIDENT COMMENSURATE WITH RISKS AND REQUIREMENTS. I T IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE, HOWEVER, THAT UNNECESSARY RESPONSE MEASURES CAN FURTHER DAMAGE THE ENVIRONMENT. O RGANIZE R ESPONSE : M AINTAIN CLEAR INCIDENT RESPONSE OBJECTIVES AND TACTICAL ACTIONS A DOPT A DAILY INCIDENT MANAGEMENT ROUTINE AND PROCESS M ONITOR DEPLOYED RESOURCES TO ENSURE THEIR APPLICABILITY AND EFFECTIVENESS F OSTER COLLABORATIVE AND OPEN WORKING RELATIONSHIPS AMONG STAKEHOLDERS K EYS TO S UCCESSFUL I NCIDENT M ANAGEMENT : I NCIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS DEFINE AND STANDARDIZE ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES, COMMUNICATION LINES, MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES, PROCESSES, AND TERMINOLOGY ACROSS GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS AND INDUSTRY, ENABLING TIMELY STAND - UP AND EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT OF RESPONSE OPERATIONS IN THE EVENT OF A SPILL. I NCIDENT M ANAGEMENT S YSTEM : T HE RESPONSE IS ORGANIZED TO ALLOW FOR PRUDENT OVERREACTION AND THE IMPLEMENTATION OF AN INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM.

C ASCADE R ESOURCES R ESPONSE : C ASCADE R ESOURCES E ACH BAR REPRESENTS A SPECIFIC RESPONSE CAPABILITY FOR A FACILITY OR REGION AND THE COLORED BARS REPRESENT THE APPROPRIATE CAPABILITIES FOR A SPECIFIC SPILL. R ESOURCES ARE DEPLOYED IN A CASCADING MANNER TO THE INCIDENT LOCATION, PER THE PREDETERMINED RESPONSE STRATEGY. T HE CASCADING PROCESS INVOLVES RESOURCES MOBILIZING TO THE INCIDENT LOCATION AS THE SPILL EVOLVES AND RESPONDERS BETTER UNDERSTAND WHAT EQUIPMENT AND SERVICES ARE REQUIRED. C ASCADING R ESOURCES : R ESOURCES DEPLOYED TO THE INCIDENT LOCATION MAY INCLUDE LOCAL RESOURCES, MUTUAL AID, OIL SPILL RESPONSE ORGANIZATIONS, AND STATE AUTHORITIES. R ESOURCE T YPES : A PPROPRIATE RESPONSE RESOURCES ARE DEPLOYED TO THE INCIDENT LOCATION.

A DJUST FOR R EALITIES R ESPONSE : A DJUST FOR R EALITIES B ECAUSE A RESPONDER CANNOT PREDICT ALL CONDITIONS RELATED TO A PLANNING SCENARIO, THE RESPONSE IS ADJUSTED TO REFLECT REALITIES OF THE SITUATION, INCLUDING : A CTUAL VS. FORECASTED OPERATING CONDITIONS E XTERNAL RESTRICTIONS TO RESPONSE S AFETY AND SECURITY S TAKEHOLDER REACTIONS U NREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS V ARIANCE FROM THE P LAN : D URING THE RESPONSE, THE NEBA PROCESS IS USED TO REGULARLY RE - EVALUATE THE RESPONSE STRATEGY, TAKING THE REALITIES OF THE SITUATION INTO ACCOUNT. F OLLOWING RE - EVALUATION, THE EFFECTIVENESS AND FEASIBILITY OF RESPONSE OPTIONS ARE CONFIRMED AND THE BEST AVAILABLE RESPONSE OPTION THAT MINIMIZES THE IMPACT OF THE SPILL ON PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT IS IMPLEMENTED. N ET E NVIRONMENTAL B ENEFIT A NALYSIS (NEBA): D URING A RESPONSE, STRATEGY EFFECTIVENESS – AS WELL AS INCIDENT CONDITIONS AND CIRCUMSTANCES – MUST BE EVALUATED AND ANALYZED IN ORDER TO SUCCESSFULLY ADAPT THE RESPONSE APPROACH.

O NGOING R ESPONSE R ESPONSE : O NGOING R ESPONSE T HE ONGOING RESPONSE WILL BE CONTINUALLY ADAPTED UNTIL A DETERMINED ENDPOINT HAS BEEN REACHED IN AGREEMENT WITH STAKEHOLDERS. T HIS ENDPOINT IS DETERMINED BY : NEBA CRITERIA W HETHER FURTHER RESPONSE IS ENVIRONMENTALLY DETRIMENTAL OR BECOMES INCREASINGLY INEFFECTIVE A DDRESSING COMMUNITY NEEDS O NGOING R ESPONSE : W ITH HUMAN HEALTH AND SAFETY AS OUR FIRST PRIORITY, A RESPONSE MAY NOT BE SAFE OR POSSIBLE IN ALL LOCATIONS. N OT ALL OIL CAN BE RECOVERED AND SOMETIMES CLEANUP EFFORTS CAN CAUSE MORE HARM THAN GOOD. M ONITORING NATURAL PROCESSES AND TRANSITIONING TO RESTORATION MEASURES CAN, AT TIMES, BE THE BEST OPTION. R EALITIES OF A R ESPONSE : U PON COMPLETION OF THE RESPONSE EFFORT, RESTORATION ACTIVITIES MAY COMMENCE, INCLUDING : E NVIRONMENTAL AND COMMUNITY RESTORATION C ONDUCTING LONG - TERM STUDIES AND PROJECTS C ONTINUED DIALOGUE BETWEEN INDUSTRY AND AUTHORITIES T RANSITION TO R ESTORATION : T HE ONGOING RESPONSE REPRESENTS THE CONTINUED RESPONSE EFFORT AND TRANSITION TO RESTORATION.
