DETAILS
Course Objectives: This course is intended to provide both the novice and experienced dam safety emergency planner with valuable lessons and skills that will allow them to develop new EAPs and improve the effectiveness of existing EAPs. The course is a hands-on, interactive workshop, covering the basic elements and knowledge required to prepare, implement, update, and review effective EAPs that will mesh with the constantly changing emergency management community.
The agenda is structured to answer the following key questions:
- Why are EAPs important?
- What are the important components of an effective EAP?
- How do you develop, update, and test an EAP?
There are no specific education or experience prerequisites for this course, although some knowledge/experience in dam safety would be beneficial.
Course Manual: A course manual or workbook will be provided in a three-ring notebook, so that course participants can customize the notebook by adding their own notes and other information during or after the course. The manual/workbook will include:
-
Copies of presentation slides.
-
Exercise materials.
-
A generic EAP document for use in the exercises.
-
An EAP reviewer’s checklist.
-
A compilation of valuable references, including:
-
A summary of EAP formats and requirements for the different states.
-
EAP format examples from state and federal agencies.
-
A list of other key EAP and dam safety references.
-
Internet URLs for sites where additional information can be found.
The course manual will include a DVD with copies of all of the materials distributed in hard copy at the course plus additional reference materials.
