Rapid Response to Emergencies'.ASDSO - Seattle Washington Tuesday September 21,2010 General Session 8:30 - 10:00 AM

摘要

The cold and stormy, midnight call from dam owner Dick Dingleberry saying "We have a problem". "Weeeee", you think as he explains that his nightmare dam is leaking 500 GPM of muddy water from an area somewhere in middle of his dam exactly over the outlet. It's that Holy Crap Moment when life, as you know it, changes for ever. Time will be measured, from here on out as before or after this moment. Up to this point, you have done all of the dam engineering and owner mentoring you could do. You have handled the politics, the public posturing and the personalities involved with this structure. You have addressed all of the FEMA required emergency preparedness and mitigation but now it is time for reaction, response and hopefully recovery.
