3. 3 Pilot project began spring 2007 for Portsmouth Harbor NH and ERMA Portsmouth used in industry PREP drill in June 2008 Presented ERMA to National Responses Team in Spring 08, which lead EPA Region 2 to fund development of Caribbean ERMA in 2009 Spill of National Significance (SONS) drill in was in Maine March 23-25 th 2010. The Portsmouth pilot project was expanded with assistance from regional stakeholders (ME- DEP, NH- DES, MA- DEP, EPA, and USCG) NOAA was asked to stand up an ERMA on the 22 nd and data was operational within command posts on the 24 th. Over 70 Data layers may be incorporated daily basis depending on the response needs ADM Allen designated ERMA as the Common Operational Picture (COP) for the Deepwater Horizon Incident ERMA Background:

5. ERMA for the Public? "Geoplatform is an IT infrastructure that allowed us to bring ERMA to the public." The public attention to Deep Water Horizon Incident created a need for a public facing common operational picture The ERMA Team along with the NOAA CIO and WOC were able to collaborate to create GeoPlatform.gov/GulfResponse GeoPlatform.gov/GulfResponse was highlighted by many cable news channels during its release week leading to over 3 million hits in a single day
