The TWO most important aspects of crisis management: PREPARATION COMMUNICATION Infrastructure Development & Needs

Preparation: WMT can be used as a resource for mass quantity supply and ship product directly to staging areas but need to work out details before the disaster starts Customer Account Manager keep contact information up to date Infrastructure Development & Needs Preparation

Communication: Websites with real-time outage information –Displayed in a graphical map format –Outage Cause –Recovery Time Objective Access to a Customer Account Manager Infrastructure Development & Needs To enable WMT to get energized and to apply resources efficiently it is imperative that we know the status/plans of the utilities. Communication

Market Approaches: Restructure Louisiana’s Electric Industry (Wholesale & Retail) Electricity Competition will encourage additional generation and transmission Require all LA utilities be a member of a Regional Transmission Organization –NOT an ICT (Independent Coordinator of Transmission) Encourage on-site generation Infrastructure Development & Needs Market Approaches
