Portuguese Test Case • Objective • To train the audience in the management of toxic spills into an aquatic media • Audience: • Site managers, fire fighters commanders, civil protection and environmental office coordinators • Training setting: • Single user with or without tutor support • Language: • Portuguese

  3. Institutions involved • Chiron (Developer) • National Civil Protection Service (User) • Regional Civil Protection Service (User) • National Firefighter School (Potential user) • Water Institute (Supportive) • Lisbon Water Company (Supportive)

  4. Training objectives: • To understand the main principles on river flow hydrodynamics and dispersion; • To increase risk awareness; • To improve forecast abilities; • To achieve coordination of mitigation procedures.

  5. Learning strategy: • Reading of background MM material • Hydrology; • River hydrodynamics; • Pollutant degradation and dispersion; • Experiment with simulation models, guided exercises and tests • Exercise scenario: • Contaminant spill into an aquatic medium (e.g. river)

  6. The setting

  7. Accident in Santarém bridge Toxic pollutant spill into Tejo river 112 call received at SNPC HQ Assess situation Evaluate risk Alert proper authorities Identify options Decide on available options Assess results Chain of events SETUP Get resources

  8. Test case setup • Spill location • Spill time & date • Toxic pollutant characteristics • Spilled quantity • River hydrodynamic conditions

  9. Next decision  • Assess situation • Alert proper authorities • Identify options • Emit alert on radio and TV • Evacuate population

  10. Assess situation / Evaluate risk • Identify pollutant • Check labels on truck • Identify their meaning • Estimate spilled quantity • Check truck • Call truck company • Identify sites/person at risk • Assess maps / Information systems • Estimate river flow • Call INAG / Access http://snirh.inag.pt • Estimate time to potential crisis • Estimate river velocity / Estimate arrival time • Estimate pollutant concentration at relevant sites • Estimate pollutant degradation • Estimate pollutant dispersion

  11. You have selected too many institutions which takes time and resources OK Alert proper authorities  • INAG - Water Institute • IA - Environment Institute • IM - Meteorological Office • Forest service • SNP - National Parks Service • MAOT - Ministry of the Environment • Local Fire Brigades • Civil Protection Service Regional Office • PSP - Police • GNR-BT - Traffic Police • Army • Navy • Air force • EDP - Power company • EPAL - Lisbon Water Company • ADP - Water of Portugal Company • APL – Lisbon Harbour Administration • BRISA – Highway Company • IEP – Road Institute • Transtejo – River Boat Company • CM Santarém • CM Lisboa • CM Almada • CM Vila Franca • CM Alhandra • CM Alcochete • CM Seixal    

  12. Available options  • Monitor situation • Emit alert on radio and TV • Close Lisbon water uptakes immediately • Close Lisbon water uptake in x minutes • Discharge from Castelo de Bode • Establish pollutant barriers • Evacuate population  • Discharge from Castelo de Bode • Discharge how much ? • Is that quantity available ?
