3 POTENTIAL PLACES OF REFUGE: PART ONE - INTRODUCTION Purpose and Scope This Potential Places of Refuge (PPOR) section supplements information found elsewhere in the Prince William Sound Subarea Contingency Plan for Oil and Hazardous Substances Spills and Releases, commonly referred to as the Prince William Sound Subarea Contingency Plan (SCP). Information about sensitive areas associated with PPOR may be found in the Sensitive Areas - Section D of the SCP. Information about response strategies to protect sensitive areas and areas of public concern associated with PPOR may be found in the Geographic Response Strategies - Section G of the SCP. A place of refuge is defined as a location where a vessel needing assistance can be moved to, and where actions can then be taken to stabilize the vessel, protect human life, reduce a hazard to navigation, and/or protect sensitive natural resources and other uses of the area (e.g., subsistence collection of mussels, commercial fishing, recreational boating). A place of refuge may include constructed harbors, ports, natural embayments, potential grounding sites, or offshore waters. This section identifies potential docking, anchoring, mooring, and grounding locations that may be selected as Places of Refuge in the Prince William Sound Subarea. Actual designation of a Place of Refuge will always be an incident-specific decision made by the U.S. Coast Guard Captain of the Port for Prince William Sound. Prince William Sound (PWS) has many miles of environmentally sensitive coastline. In addition to sensitive shoreline habitats such as marshes, sheltered tidal flats, and exposed tidal flats, PWS supports a number of sensitive biological resources including birds, fish and shellfish, and marine mammals. Additional information about identification of senvistive areas and resources may be found in Section D of the SCP. Additional information about protection of sensitive area may be found in Section G of the SCP. PWS is managed under a varity of land use management plans including: Chugach National Forest, Revised Land and Resource Management Plan 1, Management Plan for State Marine Parks: Prince William Sound and Resurrection Bay 2, and Prince William Sound Area Plan for State Lands 3. PWS is also widely used for marine commerce. Oil tanker vessels, log transport ships, fuel barges, freighters, oil industry work boats, ferries, and cruise ships make routine stops at PWS ports. Also, commercial fishing boats, sport fishing charter boats, and privately-owned vessels regularly use local harbors and docks. There is no perfect docking, mooring, anchoring, or grounding site for all vessels in all situations. Deep draft vessels, such as oil tankers and cruiseships, cannot be taken to certain locations. Some ports may have shallow approaches or small bays, and deep draft ships cannot enter these locations. However, shallow draft vessels, such as fishing vessels and charter vessels, may be able to utilize these shallower ports. For the purposes of this section, vessels have been divided into three categories: deep draft, light draft and shallow draft. 1 USDA, Forest Service, Alaska Region, Chugach National Forest.

4 March 30, 2005 Draft for Workgroup Review Deep Draft Vessels are vessels that exceed 20,000 Gross Tons. These vessels have drafts of 25 to 60 feet and range in size from 450 to 1,000 feet long. Cruiseships and crude oil tankers are the predominant deep draft vessels operating in Prince William Sound. Light Draft Vessels are vessels of 300 to 19,999 Gross Tons. These vessels have drafts of up to 25 feet and range in size from 200 to 450 feet in length. Freighters and ferries are the most common light draft vessels operating in Prince William Sound. Shallow Draft Vessels are less that 300 Gross Tons, generally draw less that 15 feet and are less that 200 feet in length. Fishing vessels, fishing tenders, tour boats, and pleasure craft make up the majority of the shallow draft vessels operating in Prince William Sound. The information in this section may be used for a vessel of any size that has suffered an incident that creates need for a temporary place of safe refuge, but it is focused on deep draft and light draft size vessels, since there are more potential places of refuge for shallow draft vessels. Some potential places of refuge appropriate only for shallow draft vessels are designated, however many more potential places of refuge for shallow draft vessels exist in PWS. How the Document Was Developed This section was developed in 2004 by a Work Group of interested and knowledgeable stakeholders in keeping with the Alaska Regional Response Team's "Guidelines for Places of Refuge Decision- Making," (Alaska Federal/State Preparedness Plan for Response to Oil and Hazardous Substance Discharges/Releases, Annex O). The Work Group arrived at a consensus on the potential places of refuge and submitted this document to the Subarea Committee for approval and inclusion in the Prince William Sound Subarea Contingency Plan. The Work Group participants represented the following organizations: Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation, Alaska Department of Natural Resources, Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Alyeska Pipeline Service Company/Ship Escort/Response Vessel System (SERVS), Chugach Alaska Corporation, Cook Inlet Regional Citizens Advisory Council, Prince William Sound Regional Citizens' Advisory Council, Prince William Sound Response Planning Group, Southwest Alaska Pilots Association, U.S. Coast Guard, District 17, U.S. Coast Guard, Valdez Marine Safety Office, U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, Forest Service, Alaska Region, Chugach National Forest, U.S. Dept. of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), U.S. Dept. of the Interior, and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The first step of the PPOR process was to identify candidate sites (anchorages, moorings, docks/piers, and potential grounding sites) within the PWS Subarea. The Workgroup began by researching available information to determine major risk factors in the PWS Subarea. s were developed (see the Background section of this plan), depicting the following risk and logistical information: Locations of bulk fuel facilities; Primary traffic routes for State ferries and cruise ships; Primary traffic routes for crude oil tankers; Locations of frequent fishing vessel/tramper offload activities; Prince William Sound SCP: PPOR, Part One H-2

5 March 30, 2005 Draft for Workgroup Review Locations of key nearshore fishing grounds, hatcheries and remote release sites; Locations of previous major marine spill events; Locations of lingering oil from the Exxon Valdez spill in 1989; and Locations of spill response hubs and equipment depots. The second step was to identify a total of 66 PPOR within the PWS Subarea. A site assessment matrix (Table H-2) and key (Table H-1) was developed. This matrix consists of identified sites in each row with information about risk factors and site selection criteria in the columns. The information presented for each site includes: POR identification; Name; Location; Maximum vessel size; Swing room or dock face length; Bottom type; Exposure/protection; Conflicting uses; Sensitive resources; Response options; Distance to population centers; and Distance to alternate PPOR. POR identifications are alpha-numeric; the beginning letter indicates the type of site, as follows: Anchorages begin with A, Docks and piers begin with D, Potential grounding site begin with G, and Moorings begin with M. The number following the beginning letter is a unique site identifier with no importance attached to the magnitude of the number. The locations of potential places of refuge (anchorages, moorings, docks/piers, and potential grounding sites) are shown on Figure H-9. The site assessment matrix contains potentially suitable emergency anchorage, docking, moorage, and potential grounding locations based on operational factors such as water depth, swing room, exposure/protection, and navigational approach. Sites are grouped by the maximum vessel size category suitable for the site. The PPOR sites identified for shallow draft vessels should only be considered a partial list as there are many suitable sites available in PWS for the shallow draft vessel category (less than 300 gross tons). Step 3 was to identify specific factors that should be considered as part of the site assessment process. These factors include: Distance from population and logistics centers; Proximity to environmentally sensitive areas, wildlife resources, threatened or endangered species or habitats, and/or historic properties; Uses, such as fisheries, mariculture sites, tourism and recreational use, subsistence use, and the location of public or private facilities; Response factors such as booming feasibility and the proximity to existing Geographic Response Strategies () sites; and The distance from the closest alternative PPOR. Figure H-10 is a composite map of all PPOR and risk factors combined. Prince William Sound SCP: PPOR, Part One H-3

6 March 30, 2005 Draft for Workgroup Review How to Use the Potential Places of Refuge Section The "Guidelines for Places of Refuge Decision-Making" (Annex O of the Unified Plan) will be used for places of refuge decision-making in Prince William Sound. As outlined in the guidelines, when the U.S. Captain of the Port (COTP) receives a request from a vessel master or his/her representative to move a vessel to a place of refuge--or in the event there are no individuals on board the vessel authorized to make the request, or the vessel has been abandoned and the COTP needs to consider moving the vessel to a place of refuge--the COTP will initiate the decision-making process in Appendix 1 of Annex O. As outlined in Steps 2 and 3 in Appendix 1, if the COTP/ Unified Command determines that places of refuge should be considered for an incident-specific response, the information in the PWS PPOR document may be used to provide background information to help expedite the incident-specific place of refuge decision. The steps of the decision-making process are summarized as: 1. Place of refuge assistance requested, 2. Immediate action required by COTP, 3. COTP/Unified Command evaluates vessel options, 4. COTP/Unified Command selects vessel option, 5. COTP/Unified Command evaluates potential places of refuge based on operational criteria, 6. COTP/Unified Command selects potential places of refuge based on operational criteria, 7. Stakeholders provided with places of refuge options, and provide ranking of places of refuge options, 8. Stakeholders provide ranking of places of refuge options, 9. COTP/Unified Command selects places of refuge, and 10. COTP/Unified Command prepares documentation of decision. The information provided in this document should help decision-making by providing site-specific information to the COTP/Unified Command. Part Two of this document contains site-specific information for some of the PPOR in the PWS Subarea. An index map (Figure H-11) at the beginning of this section shows the location of the PPOR maps. Each PPOR map consists of two parts: 1) a map page showing a locator map, picture, and detailed nautical charts; and 2) a table page providing site information and local site conditions. Who to Contact for Input Comments and recommendations on these PPOR are welcomed.

7 March 30, 2005 Draft for Workgroup Review POTENTIAL PLACES OF REFUGE: PART TWO - PPOR MAPS Index of PPOR s The Workgroup developed 16 PPOR s within PWS to aid in the site assessment process. These maps are larger in scale, showing a small portion of the Subarea in more detail than the maps in Part One. Figure H-11 provides an overview of the PWS Subarea, identifying the location of each PPOR. Each PPOR has been assigned an identifying number, which has no relevance other than as a map identifier. PPOR s Each PPOR consists of two parts: 1) a graphic showing a locator map, picture, and detailed nautical charts showing the location of anchorages, docks, moorings, potential grounding sites and other information critical to the selection of a place of refuge; and 2) a series of tables providing site information regarding local site conditions, environmental sensitivities and other considerations.
