Area Committee
Mission Statement
Our mission is to ensure the highest state of readiness of the spill response community. We will
strive to accomplish this by developing comprehensive and useful contingency plans, preparing the
response community through training and exercises, developing coordination mechanisms to
facilitate effective responses, and educating our stakeholders and the public.
Vision Statement
We will function as an efficient organization for ensuring effective response to environmental threats
in our area. Our regulatory members and non-regulatory participants will include all stakeholders
representing the federal, state, and local levels and the maritime, natural resource, and academic
communities.
We will collaborate, sharing information and resources, to produce the best possible plans and
creative solutions to problems. We will employ state of the art research and technology in both our
problem solving and our decision making.

AUGUST 2006
We will learn from our responses and activities, improve our processes and develop as individuals
and as an organization. We will be proud of our accomplishments and make great contributions
toward the environmental protection of the coastal zones.
1310
Purpose
This charter establishes the Southeast Texas and Southwest Louisiana Coastal Zone Area
Committee pursuant to the OPA ‘90 and Texas and Louisiana State law. OPA ‘90 established Area
Committees to serve as spill preparedness planning bodies responsible for developing strategies
for coordinated responses to the discharge, or threat of discharge, of oil or hazardous substances,
in pre-designated inland and coastal zones. This Area Committee was established to cover the
coastal waters of the Gulf Coast, between High Island, Texas and West of Freshwater City,
Louisiana.
1320
Organization
The Area Committee is comprised of representatives from federal, state, and local governments as
members and representatives from the marine industry as advisors.
1.
Executive Steering Committee (ESC): The ESC is the decision making body of
the Area Committee. The ESC consists of the FOSC, State On-Scene
Coordinators, ICs, a local emergency coordinator representative, representatives
from each of the committee’s advisory subcommittees, and an executive
secretary. The ESC leads the Area Committee by providing an agenda and
guidance for the work of the Committee. The duties and responsibilities of the
members of the ESC are to set the goals for the Area Committee, assign and
monitor projects assigned to working subcommittees, vote on issues, and
represent all entities who participate in the Area Committee. The ESC meets on
a quarterly basis, although special meetings may be called when needed. There
will be a combination of open meetings, open to all members of the Area
Committee and the general public, and closed meetings, which only the ESC
members will attend. It will be attempted to alternate meeting locations between
Texas and Louisiana, to balance interests.
2.
Advisory Subcommittees: Advisory Subcommittees have been established to
allow non-regulatory participants in the Committee an opportunity to actively
voice their concerns and comments. They provide comments to the Area
Committee and the ESC. Each non-regulatory participant in the Committee is
aligned in one of the Advisory Subcommittees: industry, OSRO, natural
resources, and academia. Non-regulatory participants from each of the Advisory
Subcommittees are selected for representation on the ESC. The interest of the
Advisory Subcommittee is conveyed to the related ESC member and discussed
at the ESC level. Advisory Subcommittees may meet as often as necessary to
ensure their concerns are considered.
Working Subcommittees: These subcommittees will be established to work on
functional items pertaining to the Area Committee. They are specifically tasked
to complete assigned projects, tasks, and goals that are developed by the ESC.
The number of working subcommittees can change as needed for the work
projects established by the ESC.
ESC Membership: The following list shows the ESC membership:

ESC Membership selection: The regulatory agencies will fill the ESC positions
by their agency positions (USCG COTP, TGLO Regional Director, etc.). Nonregulatory members will be selected by consensus vote of the ESC. For
example, when a new OSRO member is needed, the OSRO Advisory Group
would determine who volunteers to fill the position. The ESC would then
determine, by consensus vote, who will fill the position from the list of volunteers.
Non-regulatory ESC membership terms: Terms will be determined by the
interest of those members to continue serving and the interest of others to serve.
Terms will last three years.
Executive Secretary Duties: Record meeting minutes, draft meeting minutes for
review by the USCG COTP and mailing by the USCG, prepare ESC meeting
agenda notices approximately two weeks prior to meetings for distribution by the
USCG, and make notifications of date and time changes to ESC meetings.
Chairperson: The USCG COTP, as pre-designated FOSC, shall be the
Chairperson of the Area Committee. The lead state agency representatives,
TGLO Regional Director, and Louisiana Oil Spill Coordinator, shall serve as Vice
Chairpersons. The Chairperson shall conduct each meeting of the ESC and
provide an opportunity for participation by each regulatory member, each nonregulatory participant, and by any public attendees; ensure adherence to the
agenda; maintain order; and review recommendations submitted to the ESC. In
the absence of the Chairperson, these duties shall be performed by the ViceChairpersons.

Staging Areas
Staging areas are locations where incident personnel and equipment are assigned awaiting tactical
assignment. Pre-identified staging areas should be established prior to an incident to allow for a
smoother transition going into a response and to minimize downtime while trying to get a staging
area established.

Command Post
An incident command post will initially be established at either MSU Port Arthur or MSU
Lake Charles. The responsible party is invited to combine their command post at these
locations to institute a unified command at the earliest opportunity. This will allow the
responsible party time to locate and organize an incident command post. The actual
location of the spill may determine which office will take the lead in formulating a
response to a spill and where the command post will be located. In addition to an
incident command post, field command posts can be established to supervise response
efforts. Field command posts should be close to the spill site or work area to monitor and
supervise the cleanup.
5220.2
Command Post Establishment Procedures
General - Several basic features must be considered when selecting potential incident
command post sites. These considerations include:
Location - The incident command post should be in the general area of the incident. It
does not need to be at the incident site and for many reasons should be located away
from the incident, including preventing the administrative activities surrounding a spill
from interfering with operations. Above ground facilities may enhance radio
communications and antenna placement.
Size - The command post must be capable of accommodating the number of people
anticipated. For major incidents the number of people can easily reach 200. An
estimated need of 50-sq. ft./person results in a requirement for about 10,000 sq. ft.
Additional support area for food service, etc. should be considered.
Layout - The command post should be compatible with the NIIMS organization.
Individual spaces for the following are desirable:
Unified Commander Private Rooms
Unified Command Center
Planning Section
Logistics Section
22
AUGUST 2006
Operations Section
Finance Section
Public Affairs (should be separated from the above)
Meeting Room (should be separated from the above)
Parking - Parking for the above 200 personnel plus visitors and command vehicles
should be present. For planning purposes a minimum of 300 parking spaces should be
available.
Electricity - Power demands at command posts are heavy. Computers, cell phones, and
radios are becoming standard equipment for responders. Each person in the command
post will likely have need for at least one outlet, or a total of 200 outlets. Power strips can
decrease the number of building outlets provided the electrical supply is adequate for the
load. Estimated power load may exceed 400 amps.
Telephones - Telephones are critical. For planning purposes one phone line for every
two people in the command post is used, or 100 lines. Some of these phones should be
designated "incoming only".
Air Operations - Air overflights will be a normal part of the incident response daily
routine. Helicopter landing areas should be in close proximity to the command post. This
will reduce staff and unified commanders' travel time to and from overflights.
Security - A security control station will be needed, along with sufficient security
personnel to control access to the command center and associated peripheral
equipment/facilities.
Sanitary Facilities - Provisions should be made to accommodate large numbers of
people on site around the clock.
5220.3
Field Command Post Establishing and Potential Sites
Establishing:
1.
Contact owner of property.
2.
Arrange for utility activation:
a.
Electric
b.
Telephone
3.
Anticipate period before utility activation with portable generators, cellular
telephones, and VHF radios.
4.
Have command post delivered.
5.
Items that should be considered when choosing a field command post site:
a.
Hard surface road with adequate parking
b.
Helicopter landing area
c.
Accessibility to the waterway
d.
Proximity to the actual incident
For field command posts, either modular buildings (portable) or motor homes (RV) can be
used. Many of the cleanup contractors, major oil companies, and response agencies
have ready response mobile command posts available. One advantage of motor homes
is they allow the command post to be easily moved as the oil spill response changes.

Communications
Rapid and accurate information exchanges are essential in responding to any pollution
incident. Most minor incidents are easily handled by using a few straightforward
communication systems to pass tasking messages between the command Post and field
responders. Complex incidents bring about the need for a coordinated communication
effort. Geographic specific communication plans are located in the GRP for each COTP
zone.
The primary radio frequency for communications between the UC, TGLO, and local
agencies in Texas during the initial phase of the response is 800MHz, channel USCG 2.
However, calling the Nederland field office landline (409) 727-7481 may be the best way
to establish and maintain contact with TGLO personnel during the initial stages of
response. The best way to establish and maintain contact with LOSCO during the initial
stages of response is through use of cell phones. Their number is in each of the
sensitive site surveys found in the GRP.

7000 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
7100
Introduction
The spill, release or discharge of hazardous substances is unique compared to an oil spill in that
hazardous substances have a greater potential to impact human health. In general, oil spills are of
great concern due to their potential to cause long term damage to the environment. Oil spills do
not routinely pose an immediate threat to human life. On the contrary, hazardous substance spills
can pose an immediate danger to humans when discharged in even the smallest quantities. This
chapter of the ACP provides general guidelines for initial response actions necessary to abate,
contain, control and remove the spilled material and describes some of the unique issues
associated with a hazardous material spill.
The definition of hazardous substance is: Any substance designated as such by the administrator
of the EPA pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act (42 U.S.C. Sec. 9601 et seq.), regulated pursuant to Section 311 of the federal Clean Water
Act (33 U.S.C. Sec. 1321 et seq.), or designated by the TCEQ or LA State Police.
The definition of harmful quantity is: A quantity of a hazardous substance the discharge or spill of
which is determined to be harmful to the environment or public health or welfare or may
reasonably be anticipated to present an imminent and substantial danger to the public health or
welfare by the administrator of the EPA pursuant to federal law, by the executive director of the
TCEQ, and by Louisiana State Police.

Government Policy and Response
7210
Texas State Policy
Except as provided in Chapter 40, Natural Resources Code, the TCEQ will be the state lead
agency in spill response, will conduct spill response for the state, and will otherwise administer this
subchapter. The TCEQ will conduct spill response and cleanup for spills and discharges of
hazardous substances other than oil in or threatening coastal waters according to the applicable
provision of the state coastal discharge contingency plan promulgated by the commission under
Section 40.053, Natural Resources Code. The TCEQ will cooperate with other agencies, departments, and subdivisions of this state and of the United States in implementing this subchapter. In
the event of a discharge or spill and after reasonable effort to obtain entry rights from each
property owner involved, if any, the executive director of the TCEQ may enter affected property to
carry out necessary spill response actions. The TCEQ maintains on staff trained hazardous
substance professionals and are capable of responding to any such spills on a 24-hour basis at
(888) 777-3186.
The TCEQ may issue rules necessary and convenient to enforce state regulations and conduct
hazardous material spill clean up.
Cleanup and restoration standards have been established by TCEQ regulations and are based on
a “pre-spill” concept of restorative action. In other words, the objective of each spill cleanup
29
AUGUST 2006
should be to return the site to pre-spill or background conditions or, if necessary, to an acceptable
risk based level of contamination. Required clean-up and restorative levels are described in 30
TAC 327.5. This cite also contains a provision for the completion of a cleanup under the Risk
Reduction Rules in 30 TAC 335.8 and/or other TCEQ risk-based corrective action rules.
Cleanup standards are not established for total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) due to the broad
range of chemical constituents that make up TPH. Rather, concentrations of constituents of
concern for which toxicity values have been established (e.g. benzene) should be determined and
compared to health-based standards such as NIOSH or other published personal exposure limit
values.
The state may have a cause of action against any responsible person for recovery of expenditures
out of CERCLA and costs that would have been incurred or paid by the responsible person if the
responsible person had fully carried out the duties under §26.266 of the Texas Water Code. Such
costs may include reasonable and necessary scientific studies to determine impacts of the spill,
how to respond to spill impacts, costs of attorney services, out-of-pocket costs associated with
state agency actions, and costs of remedying injuries caused by reasonable cleanup activities.
Regulation also enables the TCEQ to assert the state's right to a cause of action for recovery of
twice the costs incurred in cleaning up the spill or discharge.

Louisiana State Policy
Act 83 of the Louisiana Legislature established the Louisiana State Police (LSP) as the lead state
agency for hazardous materials incidents. The LSP maintain the Louisiana Statewide Emergency
Response Plan and will follow the state and local Parish Response Plan. LSP can be contacted
on a 24hr basis at (877) 925-6595.
The Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) is the primary agency in the State
concerned with environmental policies and regulations as set forth in the Louisiana Revised
Statutes 30:2001 et seq. The LDEQ responds to all reported unauthorized discharges, emissions,
or other releases to the water, air and soil with the intent of providing protection of these natural
resources to maintain a healthful environment for the citizens of the State. Specific response
activities of the LDEQ relative to the Oil Spill Prevention and Response Act of 1991 (OSPRA 91)
may vary according to the size, extent, and composition of a spill; the degree of involvement of a
responsible party; and local, state, and federal agencies. LDEQ has trained all response
personnel to the 40-hour Hazardous Waste Operations and Management level for activities
relative to oil and hazardous material releases. In addition to spill response duties, LDEQ
personnel review industry spill prevention and control plans, assist in oil and hazardous material
spill drills, and inspect permitted facilities for compliance with applicable rules and regulations
pursuant to the Louisiana Environmental Quality Act. The LDEQ can be contacted on a 24hr basis
at (225) 342-1234. The following are LDEQ duties relative to the Louisiana Oil Spill Contingency
Plan.

Incident Command
In executing this portion of the Area Contingency Plan (ACP), the senior emergency responder is
designated the Incident Commander until relieved by a more senior responder, or until such time as
a unified command structure is established. At a minimum, the unified command structure will
consist of the Federal On-Scene Coordinator (FOSC), State On-Scene Coordinator (SOSC), and the
Responsible Party Incident Commander (RPIC).
The Responsible Party for a chemical release impacting waterways within the coastal zone will be
notified by the Federal On Scene Coordinator (FOSC) by Notice of Federal Interest issued in
accordance with 40 Code of Federal Regulations, Part 300. The Responsible Party is expected to
provide timely and accurate notification, and cooperate with the FOSC’s response effort.
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and Louisiana State Police are designated as lead
State agency for HAZMAT releases. Other agencies, organizations, or parties with interest in the
response but not designated to serve in the unified command will be engaged by way of the
command staff Liaison Officer.
As soon as practicable, the Incident Commander will establish a command post. The primary initial
means of communication will be determined by the principal response organization that has
jurisdiction to respond to the hazardous substance event.
The FOSC will:
a.
Be prepared to assume the role of Incident Commander if the response is
inadequate or nonexistent.
b.
Be prepared to assume the role of Incident Commander following conclusion of
firefighting response operations if the incident involves pollution or is classified as a
marine disaster.
c.
Work in cooperation with the State On-Scene Coordinator to direct the employment
of resources in conjunction with an Incident Action Plan.

8000 MARINE FIRE FIGHTING
8110
INTRODUCTION
This plan outlines the USCG responsibilities and provides response guidelines for a
marine fire. The Captain of the Port’s (COTP) primary concern in responding to vessel or
facility fires is to ensure safety of life. Secondary concerns include maintaining vessel
traffic, preserving property, and protection of the environment. To accomplish this, the
COTP and the Marine Fire-fighting sub-committee have created this fire-fighting plan for
responding to vessel and waterfront casualties. The guiding policy for this plan is
COMDTINST M16000.11, Marine Safety Manual, Volume VI, chapter eight.
This plan was jointly developed by the Marine Fire-fighting sub-committee. The subcommittee was made up of people from the following organizations:
Louisiana Office of Emergency Preparedness (Calcasieu Parish)
Texas General Land Office (Nederland office)
Southwest Louisiana Mutual Aid Association
Sabine Neches Chief’s Association
Ward 6 Fire Department
Port Arthur Fire Department
Orange Fire Department
Beaumont Fire Department
Lake Charles Fire Department
Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office (Marine Division)
Moran Towing (Nederland office)
Motiva Enterprises
Sun Pipeline Inc.
U.S. Coast Guard (Station Sabine), and
U.S. Coast Guard (Marine Safety Unit Port Arthur)
8111
POLICY AND RESPONSIBILITY
The senior fire service officer with jurisdiction over the location in which the shipboard fire
occurs will serve as the Incident Commander (IC). For other fires, the master of the
affected vessel or another designated representative of the owner/operator will serve as
the IC. The USCG shall not assume overall control of fire fighting efforts when
appropriate qualified fire service officers are present and able to assume command.
The Southeast Texas/Southwest Louisiana ports and waterways facilities cover many
miles of waterways, transiting numerous local, county, parish, and state jurisdictional
boundaries. A unified command (UC) structure for incidents in these areas shall be used
when practical. The COTP should be consulted relative to action that may effect the
navigational channel or create a pollution hazard.
33
AUGUST 2006
8112
CAPTAIN OF THE PORT RESPONSIBILITY
The USCG renders assistance as available, based on the level of training and the
adequacy of equipment. The COTP intends to maintain this traditional "assistance as
available" posture without conveying the impression that the USCG is prepared to relieve
local fire departments of their responsibilities or compromise their authorities. Paramount
in preparing for vessel or waterfront fires is the need to integrate USCG planning and
training efforts with those of other response agencies, particularly local fire departments
and port authorities.
The COTP shall provide appropriate assistance to local municipal fire departments,
vessel and facility owners and operators, and other interested parties. The COTP will be
prepared to assume the role of IC upon conclusion of fire fighting operations if it is
appropriate to do so. All USCG fire fighting forces and equipment shall remain under the
control of their normal chain of command. Orders for the coordination of USCG
personnel shall be passed through the USCG COTP or designated representative by the
local qualified fire officer. The USCG COTP or designated representative shall be
responsible for evaluating the orders of such persons and executing only those orders
that will not create unwarranted risk to USCG personnel or equipment.
8113
VESSEL MASTER RESPONSIBILITY
The master of a vessel is responsible for the safety of the crew and vessel and should
initiate fire fighting response actions in accordance with the vessel's fire plan. The
presence of local fire fighters does not relieve the master of command or transfer the
master's responsibility for overall safety on the vessel. However, the master should not
normally countermand any orders given by the local fire fighters in the performance of fire
fighting activities on board the vessel, unless the intended action clearly endangers the
safety of the vessel or crew.
8114
AREA OF RESPONSIBILITY
The COTP’s area of responsibility for the Southeast Texas and Southwest Louisiana
Zone is defined by 33 CFR 3.40-20. Basically, the area of responsibility is from High
Island, Texas, eastward to the Mermentau River in Louisiana.
Responsibility extends to:
1.
Ships and vessels,
2.
Their cargo and crew,
3.
Structures in or immediately adjacent to navigable U.S. waters, or
4.
Resources within such waters.
8200
COMMAND
34
AUGUST 2006
8210
TASK ORGANIZATION
In the event of a major shipboard or facility fire, the COTP will request the designation of
an IC. The senior fire service person on-scene serves as the IC for the purpose of
responding to the fire and the COTP is responsible for the safety of the waterway and
adjacent area.
8211
MULTI-AGENCY RESPONSE
In a multi-agency response, a Unified ICS structure should be established. This ICS
structure should consist of the individuals designated by their respective agencies. The
members of the Unified ICS must jointly determine objectives, strategy, and priorities.
The determination of which agencies or departments the IC/UC uses may be done on the
basis of greatest jurisdictional involvement, number of resources involved, existing
statutory authority, or by mutual knowledge of the individual's qualifications.
A Unified IC structure is called for under the following conditions:
1.
2.
More than one department or agency shares management responsibility due to
the nature of the incident or the kinds of resources required.
The incident involves more than one jurisdiction.
The USCG cannot delegate its statutory authorities and will not delegate mission
responsibilities to state or local agencies. However, USCG personnel should be
prepared to fully integrate into a Unified ICS response structure and provide assistance
as necessary.
8212
MULTI-AGENCY COORDINATION
Coordination between outside agencies is most essential and must be assured by
maintaining a continuous liaison between representatives. The best way to accomplish
this is for the COTP to meet with all of the UC representatives at the command post to
discuss how the situation will be handled. While each case will present a different set of
circumstances, liaison with representatives from some or all of the following groups may
be appropriate:
Fire Department(s)
Owner's Representative
U. S. Coast Guard
Appropriate Port Authority
Pilots Association
Appropriate Facility Managers
Master of Vessel
Cargo Representative
Legal Counsel
Naval Architect
Chief Engineer
Marine Surveyor
Chief Mate
Industrial Hygienist/Toxicologist
Ship's Agent

Other Resources: Any commercial ship becomes a valuable resource during an
offshore fire to rescue the burning vessel’s crew should the fire get out of control.
Vessels in the area should be notified of a situation via an Urgent Marine
Information Broadcast. Tug companies in the vicinity should be contacted and
may assist in fighting the fire, moving a dead ship, or transporting personnel and
equipment.
Most local fire departments have limited response capabilities for shipboard fires.
The only dedicated fireboat in the COTP zone is located in the Port of Lake
Charles. Some local fire departments have small watercraft that can be used for
search and rescue and spill response. Offshore ship fires are a rescue priority.
Land based fire departments will have involvement at their chief's discretion as
the situation and location dictates.
Local emergency management officials provide response to many different
emergencies and serve as a centralized notification point for resources within
their local areas.
Law enforcement agencies can assist on-scene to:
a.
Control crowd,
b.
Limit access to incident area,
c.
Provide security for staging areas and/or
d.
Provide police escort for vehicles carrying
fire-fighting personnel and resources.
COTP ROLE
All USCG fire fighting forces and equipment within a COTP’s Area of Responsibility shall
be under the control of the COTP. The COTP is responsible for the development of the
marine fire fighting annex with input from local response organizations. The COTP shall
act as the liaison between the USCG and other response organizations and the media.
Orders from the IC for USCG responders shall be passed through and evaluated by the
COTP. Only those orders that will not create unwarranted risk for USCG personnel and
equipment shall be executed. The COTP shall not assume overall control of fire fighting
efforts when appropriate qualified fire officers are present and able to take control.

c.
A command post should be established outside of a hazard or
decontamination zone. Considerations in choosing a command post
site:
1)
Command post location not endangered
2)
Proximity to fire
3)
Accessibility
INCIDENT COMMANDER ROLE
The IC will direct the fire fighting operations of all responding agencies. Safety of
responding emergency personnel shall take priority. The operational response will be
based on the following tactical priorities.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Rescue: The saving of lives and removal of victims to a safe area is paramount
and comes before any other consideration.
Exposure: The protection from exposure is necessary to prevent damage
to nearby structures, equipment, and materials and to prevent the spread of fire
to uninvolved areas (including fuel loads) on or off the vessel. Exposures may be
shipboard, shore side, or on a nearby vessel.
Confinement: Confine the fire to the compartment or area of origin.
Extinguishment: Extinguishment includes those operations that are required to
attack and extinguish the main body of fire.
Overhaul: Overhaul includes those operations required to complete the
extinguishment of remaining fire, prevent re-flash, and to place the compartment
and ship in a safe condition.
Salvage: Salvage includes those operations required to protect compartments
and contents from preventable damage due to water, smoke, heat, or other
elements.
37

8218
Ventilation: Ventilation includes those operations required to displace a heated
and contaminated atmosphere within an involved compartment with normal air
from the outside atmosphere.
RESPONSIBLE PARTY ROLE
The responsible party (RP), or ship’s master or designee, will maintain control over the
vessel, crew, and passengers. The RP will assign a representative to the incident
command post. His/her designee should be thoroughly familiar with the ship’s fire
fighting systems and understand the ICS.
1.

8219
The command post will be established upon arrival of the local fire department
with command and control for all fire fighting functions falling within its guidelines.
The ship’s fire fighting crews will provide strategic assistance to the command
post through the RP's representative.
The RP's first responsibility will be the evacuation of all nonessential personnel
and to ensure accountability is taken of the passengers and crew.
The ship’s fire fighting crew will make every effort to contain and extinguish the
fire. Once the situation has progressed beyond their capabilities, every effort will
then be made to contain the fire and await assistance from the fire department
having jurisdiction.
The RP shall deliver the vessel’s Fire Control Plan and manifest to the first
arriving fire-fighting units.
VESSEL MASTER ROLE
The master of the vessel will:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
Implement the initial response based on the vessel's fire control plan.
Ensure proper communications, both internal and external and that proper
notifications are made to the appropriate fire department or contractor and the
USCG. If necessary, notify the facility to which the vessel is docked, the port
authority, and any nearby vessels.
Control the operation and use of all shipboard fire fighting systems.
Coordinate the efforts of shipboard fire teams in responding to the fire.
Conduct a muster of the crew and provide a report to the IC/UC.
Utilize his/her resources to control the fire until such time as he/she is relieved of
fire fighting activities by the designated IC.
Decide if it is necessary to abandon ship. If the crew is ordered to abandon ship,
the master will ensure that the proper procedures are carried out.
Provide the vessel fire control plan and international shore connection to IC/UC.
Provide a list of crewmembers, the condition of the vessel including status of the
fuel and ballast tanks and any other flooding and stability issues, the type and
condition of cargoes on board, and identification of any special equipment
hazards, explosions, or damage.

FEDERAL RESPONSE
8310
VESSEL SPECIFIC RESPONSE OPERATIONS
Initial response operations will be the responsibility of the operator of the vessel or
facility. Operators of vessels must use their own fire control plans to respond to
shipboard fires and take any additional steps necessary to limit the spread of fire from the
vessel.
Local fire fighting organizations (municipal, volunteer, industrial, and contractor) must be
prepared to respond within the limits of their training and capabilities. If fire-fighting
resources are not trained or capable of handling a shipboard fire, they should take
appropriate measures to prevent the fire from spreading.
In addition to the local fire fighting resources, the hiring of a professional marine fire
fighting organization should be considered. These organizations can provide a variety of
assistance ranging from technical expertise to trained personnel and specialized
equipment for responding to shipboard fires. A contact list for commercial fire fighting
resources is provided as part of section 8650.
The USCG will provide assistance as appropriate. This may include establishing safety
zones, rerouting or restricting vessel traffic, assistance with search and rescue or medical
evacuation, deployment of the marine fire fighting coordination team, or pollution
response operations.
Other affected organizations, particularly pollution response or salvage organizations, will
respond as directed by the IC under a UC system.

use of water or foam in combating the fire.
39
AUGUST 2006
8313
VESSEL SPECIFIC RESPONSE OPERATIONS
The designated IC (normally the senior fire official on-scene) will direct employment of
responding resources. Fire fighting resources will be employed based on:
1.
Location and extent of fire,
2.
Class and extent of cargo involved,
3.
Possibility of explosion,
4.
Possibility of sinking or capsizing,
5.
Hazard to crew or other resources present at location,
6.
Weather forecast,
7.
Maneuverability of vessel,
8.
Effects on bridges which must be transited, and
9.
Alternatives if the vessel is not allowed entry or movement.
8314
VESSEL ENTRY OR MOVEMENT
The authority to deny vessel entry or movement rests solely with the COTP. The guiding
policy for the decision is: the port should not be jeopardized to save a single vessel if the
risk is too great. Risk evaluation, and cost-benefit analyses where applicable, should be
employed during the planning process.
1.
2.
3.
4.
8315
Considerations for denying entry or movement:
a.
There is danger of fire spreading to other port facilities or vessels.
b.
The vessel is likely to sink or capsize within the channel, becoming an
obstruction to navigation.
c.
The vessel may be abandoned.
d.
Unfavorable weather conditions preclude safe vessel movement or
would hamper fire fighting; i.e., high winds, fog, strong currents, etc.
e.
There is risk of a serious pollution incident.
Before entry or movement is considered, the vessel should be examined (with
other involved agencies, if possible) in order to determine its condition.
Permission for entry or movement may be granted when all appropriate parties, if
possible, including pilots and port authority officials have been consulted. The
COTP will then direct the best course of action for that particular incident.
Special considerations of a request for entry into the port by a burning vessel
under declaration of "force majeure" should be evaluated under the previously
listed criteria.
Once the decision to permit entry or movement of the vessel has been made,
consideration should be given to:
a.
Issuing a BNTM.
b.
Ordering the movement of other vessels or cargo stored in the area to
preclude their involvement.
c.
Positioning the vessel to facilitate fire fighting.
d.
The need for USCG escort of vessel.
e.
Tug assistance as required.
MOORING, ANCHORAGE, GROUNDING, AND SCUTTLING
The COTP should coordinate with fire departments, pilots, port officials, and involved
agencies to pre-select a mooring, anchoring, or grounding site for fighting the fire.
Considerations for these types of movements are:
1.
The flammability of wharf structures, contiguous facilities, other vessels, and
public risk.

The possibility of the vessel sinking or becoming abandoned.
Exposure of or damage to underwater pipelines and overhead utilities.
The fire’s effect on normal channel traffic.
Potential marine environmental damage.
Whether the bottom material is soft enough that the ship's hull will not be
ruptured.
A water depth that is shallow enough that the vessel will not sink below the main
deck level, yet deep enough that fire boats, salvage barges, and tugs can
approach. Tides and other water level fluctuations must be considered.
Not choosing an area known to have strong winds or currents that could hamper
fire fighting or salvage efforts.
A UC will be established with the fire department having jurisdiction as the lead
agency.
The fire department is responsible for fighting the fire; the USCG is responsible
for port and waterway safety.
Initially, the USCG should set safety zones to ensure public safety. The USCG
may assist in requesting resources such as foam, SUPSALV, communications,
and scientific support.
The fire department IC may request mutual aid assistance locally through the
respective local mutual aid association depending on where the incident occurs.
In Texas, call the Sabine Neches Chiefs Association (SNCA) and in Louisiana,
call the Southwest Louisiana Mutual Aid Association (SLMA). Federal assistance
should be requested through the USCG. Phone numbers for these resources
are located in section 8650.
The USCG will provide technical assistance and waterside safety.
USCG actions:
a.
Assign marine fire-fighting coordinator.
b.
Assign a Marine Inspector as a fire department liaison that will also act
as a COTP assistant.
c.
Provide USCG and other federal response forces as directed by the
COTP.
d.
Coordinate a small boat patrol of safety zone as directed by the COTP.

In the event of a fire on a vessel that is underway within the COTP area, efforts
may be made to moor the vessel to facilitate fire fighting efforts. If after
consultation between the USCG, the fire department, and port officials, it is
decided that mooring the vessel is not feasible, then the vessel will be directed to
a suitable anchorage or grounding site.
If the vessel is unable to enter port or is denied entry, efforts will be made to
obtain fire fighting technical support and operational assistance from the local fire
departments and companies with marine fire fighting capabilities. The next
consideration would be to consult with the RP to determine the need for
contracting a commercial fire fighting company.
Subsequent to successful search and rescue operations, the primary concern
with offshore vessel fires is prevention of pollution of United States waters,
disruption of port functions, and destruction of property.
USCG Actions:
41
AUGUST 2006
a.
b.
8318
Conduct fire fighting with USCG personnel only to the extent required to
conduct Search and Rescue (SAR) in a safe manner.
Consult the Area Contingency Plan (ACP) for more details on oil spill and
hazardous material release response operations.
VESSEL STABILITY CONSIDERATIONS
The large volumes of water often used combating fires can have a negative impact on
vessel stability, jeopardizing the safety of the vessel and personnel on board. The most
important consideration regarding vessel stability is the control of a vessel’s list.
Factors affecting stability:
1.
The free surface of all liquids on board,
2.
The integrity of the hull,
3.
Whether the double bottoms are empty or full,
4.
Integrity of watertight boundaries during flooding, and
5.
Flatness of the hull bottom if the vessel is in contact with the bottom.
Vessel owners and operators of oil tankers and offshore oil barges are required to
prearrange prompt access to computerized, shore-based damage stability and residual
strength calculation programs, available 24 hours a day, as required by 33 CFR 155.
Similarly, owners and operators of inland oil barges are required to have vessel plans
necessary to perform salvage, stability, and residual hull strength assessments at a shore
based location, available 24 hours a day.
The USCG Marine Safety Center can assist the IC/UC with stability concerns and is
available 24 hours a day. Their phone number is in the logistics section.
8319
FIRE AT A FACILITY
Initial response operations will be the responsibility of facility personnel.
Owners/operators of a facility should develop their own contingency plans to respond to a
fire or explosion at their facility. Most waterfront facilities in the COTP Zone are linked in
mutual aid associations such as the SNCA in Texas and the SLMA in Louisiana.
The response to a facility fire is basically the same as a vessel fire. The organization and
responsibilities are listed in the vessel section. Please see section 8310 for additional
information.
8320
EMERGENCIES DURING FIRE FIGHTING OPERATIONS
This section addresses emergencies that develop during marine fire-fighting operations;
e.g., secondary explosions, injuries, trapped personnel, loss of water supply, vessel
drifting or sinking, etc.
42
AUGUST 2006
No one can predict what is going to happen next during any emergency response
operation. The IC/UC can greatly reduce the risk to personnel and property by employing
sound IC/UC practices to the operations and control of the incident.
Personnel appointed to the IC/UC system must have intimate knowledge and experience
in the area of their assignment. Detailed attention to the areas of personnel safety,
accountability, medical monitoring, logistics, and staging, may identify unseen hazards
and/or allow the IC/UC to deal with unpredictable events in a safe and timely manor. The
IC/UC should be educated in NFPA 1500 and 29 CFR 1910.

PLANNING
8410
LOCAL
Local fire departments may be participants in mutual aid associations. These
associations are intended to provide for the systematic mobilization, organization, and
operation of fire-rescue resources from throughout the region in mitigating the effects of a
disaster. Shipboard fires outside the local fire department’s area of responsibility will fall
under the responsibility of the USCG.
8420
TRAINING
Coordinated interagency training exercises should be carried out annually to ensure
proper response to fire fighting emergencies. Scenarios should be developed so that a
maximum number of resources are exercised. Exercise locations should also be
changed from time to time for the same reason.
There are several different fire-fighting courses useful to COTP personnel. Texas A & M
University, Emergency Services Training Institute, located in College Station, TX, offers a
40 hour, one week program aimed at providing personnel in marine industry and
transportation with expertise in various phases of shipboard fire fighting and emergency
procedures. A schedule of classes and fees, if any, can be obtained directly from the
University:

The US Maritime Administration in cooperation with Delgado Community College in New
Orleans, LA, offers two courses in marine fire fighting for the marine industry. One is a
two-day course for barge personnel; the other is a four-day course for ship's personnel.
Both courses include field training at the Maritime Administration's fire training facility.

8500
All local fire departments conduct continuous training programs for their
personnel. This training covers all phases of fire fighting from prevention to
overhaul and investigation. Considerable attention is also focused on logistics
and hazardous materials.
The importance of cooperation and cross training between USCG units and local
industrial and municipal fire departments cannot be overemphasized. Personnel
become familiar with various equipment and methods that facilitate rapid
response actions and communication during actual fires. The COTP may access
the local fire department school for USCG personnel. This will help create an
integrated fire fighting system ensuring the best possible protection for the port
area.
FINANCE
In general, funding for USCG fire fighting activities must come from USCG Operating
Expense funds. Under some limited circumstances, the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund
(OSLTF) or Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability
(CERCLA) Trust Fund of 1980 and OPA '90, P. L. 101-380, may be available to
reimburse fire fighting expenses. This is limited only to those situations where the fire is
fought specifically to abate the potential for a pollution incident. Fire fighting activities
related to the safety of life or property are generally not contracts for responding to
discharges that pose substantial threat to public health or welfare.
8510
FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
If there is not a RP, the USCG can open the OSLTF/CERCLA if there is an oil or
hazardous chemical spill or threat of one. If there is a RP and Federal funds are used for
response expenses, those expenditures WILL be recovered from the RP. The COTP
shall generate a Pollution Removal Authorization for other emergency response
organizations that have been requested and utilized.
44
AUGUST 2006
8511
GOVERNMENT LIABILITY
An owner/master, charter, or agent who wishes to enter or move within the port to save a
vessel or cargo must indemnify (hold harmless) the port, its board, or federal and local
governments for damage or injury suffered as a result of fire or vessel movement during
a casualty.
8512
RESPONSE COST CONSIDERATIONS
Response funding is available through the OSLTF or CERCLA when a substantial threat
of pollution or HAZMAT release to the marine environment exists, in which case
commercial resources can be contracted for mitigation.

Emergency Notification
A substantial spill of oil usually has a responsible party (RP) who is aware the discharge has
occurred; i.e., a vessel grounding or collision, or a tank or pipeline rupture at a facility. The party
responsible for a discharge of oil into the navigable waters of the United States is required by federal
law to immediately report the discharge to the National Response Center. Time permitting, the
parties are recommended to contact the local Coast Guard Sector Office. If the discharge occurs
within the jurisdiction of a state, then the RP is required to report it to the appropriate state. The
numbers below are provided to help facilitate this process.

USCG Reserve
Unit reserve personnel may be a valuable resource that can be used to augment active duty forces
during an event. Reservists could be called upon to assist either as on-scene response personnel
or to back-fill positions at the unit, enabling active duty personnel to respond to the event. Unless
an involuntary mobilization is ordered, similar to what has happened in the past for recovery efforts
following natural disasters, reservists cannot be forced to activate for these events. However,
voluntary mobilization of reservists and strategic use of regular IDT drills, ADT, or ADSW-AC to
support these events may be an option. Reserve personnel with unique skills such as boat crew,
coxswain, and many of the marine safety field qualifications can be force-multipliers on scene.
Reservists that have qualifications or other support skills can augment at the unit or fill Incident
Command System (ICS) positions. The unit maintains an updated roster of reserve personnel with
contact information that can be used to notify reservists for rapid recall following an event.

DISPERSANT APPLICATION
DISPERSANT AIRCRAFT
Airborne Support, Inc. (ASI)
(985) 851-6391
ASI has 2 aircraft dedicated for spill response. One is a DC-4 with a 2,000 gal. capacity;
the other a DC-3 with 1,000 gal. capacity. Both have integral spray systems and are
located in Houma, LA. They are under contract to M-IRG and Clean Gulf Associates
(CGA). Use by non-members of those Co-ops is contingent upon M-IRG and CGA
releasing the aircraft to ASI and the non-member signing a contract with ASI. "Wheels
Up" for the DC-4 is 4 hours, for the DC-3 is 8 hours. ASI may also be able to access
LOOP's dispersant stockpile.
EADC
(207) 665-2362
(888) EADC14U
EADC is a consortium of individual Air Tractor owners. Two of the larger AT802 aircraft
are in the Houston area and two in Louisiana. They have built-in spray systems and 800
gal. payload. Smaller AT502s are also in the area and have a 500 gal. payload. EADC
is currently not under contract for spill response and therefore the aircraft are on "as
available" basis.

Planning Assumptions – Background Information
Subcommittees review applicable sections and are evaluated by Chairman and Steering
Committee for final approval. Area Contingency Plans shall be reviewed and updated
annually by the Area Committee. Plans shall be reviewed to ensure all information is
current, and in particular, the following areas shall be looked at: emergency notification
list, response equipment information (type and amount of equipment available), sensitive
areas, hazard/risk assessment of the area, response strategies (changes based on new
technology, new equipment, etc.), and dispersant approval. Any changes to the plan
must be noted on the record of changes page.
The FOSC shall periodically conduct drills of removal capability, without prior notice, in
areas for which Area Contingency Plans are required, to assess the effectiveness of such
plans and relevant tank vessel and facility plans. These drill may include participation by
Federal, State, local agencies, owners and operators of vessels and facilities in the area,
and private industry. The NSFCC will act as a clearinghouse for these exercises,
participating in the development, execution, and evaluation to the fullest extent
practicable, with the cognizant program managers of the USCG and EPA. The NSFCC
may, in conjunction with the cognizant program managers of the USCG and EPA, impose
unannounced area or multi-area exercises.
[NOTE: The NSFCC is responsible for executing the National Response System Pollution
Exercise Program (NRSPEP). All Coast Guard participation in exercises will be
coordinated with and/or through the NSFCC.]
All responses will be in the MSU Port Arthur COTP AOR unless conducted jointly with
other AORs (as in SON’s exercises). All other assumptions will be as directed by the drill
committee.
