Our vulnerability assessment team is certified to provide training in the use of the risk assessment methodology developed by Sandia National Laboratories.
M&E has also developed numerous emergency response plans and procedures. Historically, these plans were to respond to service disruptions from natural causes, such as flooding, or to physical (accidental) damages, such as power outages or main breaks. Now, our emergency response plans address response, recovery, and remediation actions to man-made and/or technological emergencies identified as high priority issues in the utility's vulnerability assessment.
Services include:
- Emergency response plans
- First responder checklists
- Public, agency, internal notification plans
- Incident command system development
- Incident reporting forms and procedures
- Personnel and site safety plans
- Sampling and testing protocols
- Preparedness training and exercise programs
