to prepare for, and respond to, oil spills from the dams of the Columbia and Snake River Systems.
A collaborative initiative developed by the Washington State Department of Ecology Spills Program, the United States Army Corps of Engineers, and the Chelan, Douglas, and Grant County Public Utility Districts
The Mission:
Columbia & Snake River Projects
Project Specific Spill Plans (PSSP)
• Included as an annex to SPCC or as a stand-alone document
• Spill Plan to use when spills occur:
Call Down List (Includes Internal/External Notifications and Project Spill Response Team)
Initial Incident Action Plan Kit, IAP models and blank ICS 201s, ICS 202s, HAW, Other useful forms.
Project Specific-Geographic Response Plans (Deploy as appropriate ahead of the response contractors)
Work Sheet for Each ProjectProject Name: The Dalles
• Lead Person: Jim Dennis• Date: January 24, 2005
• Item 1. Identify strategies for first priority deployments ahead of Contractor responses. (Contractors are between 2- 6 hours away from Projects)
• 1. GRP 191.3, 1000 feet of boom. Deflection strategy. • 2. The Dalles Marina, 500 feet of boom. Collection strategy.
• Item 2. Identify type and quantity of resources needed to accomplish the strategies.
• 1. While many types and kinds of boom are available, “Super Swamp Boom” was suggested as a proven tool for consideration.
• Item 3. Develop a plan and time frame to purchase resources, receive and maintain training, test deployments, and create a specific annex to the Project Specific Spill Plan for Columbia River or Snake River Spills.
• 1. Equipment will be purchased and in place by July, 2006.• 2. Fast Water training (EPA) will be completed by August, 2006.

a map and satellite image have been incorporated into each strategy
GRP on-water proofing
Ensure strategy on paper can be accomplished in reality
Very Important !!

Ecology Grants for Response Equipment Purchases and Training
Oil Spill Equipment Cache Program• Okanogan DEM• Chelan DEM• Chelan PUD• Douglas PUD• Grant PUD• Tri County Hazmat• Port of Kennewick• Bingen Fire Department• Yakama Nation• Asotin FD 1• Port of
Camas/Washougal• Wahkiakum PUD• Port of Chinook• Port of Cathlamet
Each cache is given to selected response agency for Columbia and Snake River deployment during oil spill emergencies. The caches can be moved and used as necessary.
The Future CSR-SRI
• Develop Joint Training and Drills Programs between CSR-SRI Members
• Establish Mutual Aid Agreements for Deployments
• Make Equipment Caches Available to all CSR-SRI Members.
• Develop a More Formal Communications System (regular meetings, updated website)
• Explore Other Ideas and Concepts
Comments and Questions
• So what do you think ??• What are the next steps ?• When are we going to take
those steps ?
