16 Spill Response Decision Tree Step-wise Progression for Response Actions to Oil Spill/Hazardous Material Release Each spill or release is unique, however, there are common threads and therefore an Incident Command System provides a unified and logical approach OSC/UC 1 requests presence of DOI to support response Notification of OLE FWS Representative makes Determination of Present and Potential Threat to Trust Resources 2 1 On Scene Coordinator Unified Command Generally a Spill affecting resources = responder needed (Don t forget the Regional Spill Coordinator is ready to assist ) 2 Trust Resources = T&E and At Risk Species, NWR, Migratory Birds, Certain Interjurisdictional Fishes, Questions for a response decision. How much Product? What kind of Product? Where is the Release? Threats to what Resources(s)? Other factors to be considered e.g. scientific expertise, support of partners, an integrated response plan etc.
17 IF no threat determined or anticipated to Trust Resources No Response, Monitoring of Event until safe conclusion to ensure threat to Trust Resources does not change. IF a threat to Trust resources is observed, or anticipated When to call Regional Office for Guidance Has spill been Federalized Is technical assistance needed Are more resources necessary Is an increase needed for the PRFA Increase personnel Response Needed, Evaluate Severity of Threat Implement Response Plan Evaluation of Response Effort Mobilize response personnel Evaluation of Response Effort Reassess response effort Maintain present effort Reduce personnel
