1. Danielle Butsick Resources at Risk Planner NWAC Meeting 10/07/2014

2.  Why are we doing this work now?  What kind of updates are we doing and how are GRPs evolving?  How are we collecting information?  What kind of timeline can you expect?

3.  Governor Inslee June 11, 2014: “Begin development of spill response plans….”  Same directive as “the study”.  Project funding for GRP development:  3 1-year project staff (me, Wendy, and Sue)  $$$ for contractor field work

4. -Lower Columbia River (2003) -Middle Columbia River (2004) -Clark/Cowlitz (2003) -Nisqually River (2003) -Green/Duwamish River -Moses Lake/Crab Creek -Chehalis River -Lake Washington -Lake Chelan

6.  Working with  Stakeholders, tribes, trustee agencies, public  Not just new strategies:  Boat launches  Staging Areas  POTENTIAL SPILL ORIGIN POINTS!

7.  GIS Mapping-  More detailed, accurate, consistent, and reproducible.  Formatting  Adobe Suite (Acrobat Pro, PhotoShop) maintains editing capability- reduces workload for future updates ▪ Page numbering, organization, and inter-linking

8.  Chapter 4:  Historically Ch. 4 only had sector maps and response strategy matrices  Updated plans will also include 2-pagers! ▪ “Tear-out sheet” with photos, diagrams, site access info, resource needs, and deployment guidance

10.  Ecology database for two-pagers  Form-based interface for site details, boom orientation  Produces 2-pagers as “reports”  Strategy, boat launch, staging area location data is stored for future use

11.  Site visits: ground-truthing sites and strategies  Rivers change —sand bars, dredging, etc.  Strategies that have been tested, lessons learned incorporated  Learned how to develop more realistic strategies

12.  We’ve learned the importance of collection strategies- not just exclusion/deflection  Better, more effective booming  Staggering/cascading and steeper angles  Notification Strategies

13.  BNSF Fallbridge sites (LCR,MCR)  Company control points developed by BNSF with Ecology  Olympic Pipeline CCPs (LCR, Clark/Cowlitz, Duwamish/Green)  Company control points developed by OPL

14.  Ch. 1-Introduction  Ch. 2- Site Description  Ch. 3- Response Options & Considerations New!  Ch. 5- Shoreline information  Ch. 6- Sensitive Resources

15.  Matrix with response tactic options, policies  One source for community to find area plan policies  Starting point for out of town responders, away teams, to start designing tactics

17.  Data collected from all of our partner agencies:  Specific species, threatened or endangered status, habitat information  Economic resources  Cultural resources  Private and public resources at risk from oil spills

18.  Spatial data--better and more readily available ▪ ArcReader Project (DAHP layers) ▪ WDFW Critical Habitat, USFWS, NOAA ▪ Coastal Atlas (Ecology layers)--being comprehensively updated ▪ Habitat, Bathymetry and other data (Lower Columbia Estuary Partnership)

19.  New form to get detailed comments ▪ Using the forms at workshops has already been a big success! ▪ Provides a way for comments to be submitted any time

20.  Site visits to existing and new sites: ▪ Lower Columbia-visits by land, contractor boats ▪ Middle Columbia- visits by land, contractor boats ▪ Working with dams, contractors on lessons learned ▪ Asking tribes to make field visits with us

21.  Public Workshops – Sept.-Oct. ‘14  Field Work Completion – Dec. ‘14  Stakeholder Meetings/Review- Dec. ‘14- March ‘15  Draft Plan Up for Public Comment - March ‘15  Final Plan Approval - May ‘15  Final Plan and Response to Comments -June ‘15

22. Questions?
