E.Training and Drills Version :27.10.4 Area -Level Exercises (Operations-Based, Functional or Full-Scale Exercises (FE/FSEs)) • Objective: The purpose of the Area FE/FSE is to exercise the ACP and the response community in a particular Area. The response community is comprised of the federal, state, and local government, industry, and tribal invitees. The Area FE/FSEs are also designed to exercise the government and industry interface for spill response or response to a significant threat of a spill. • General: The goal of the PREP is to conduct an Area FE/FSE for each ACP during each quadrennial cycle. The design and execution of such exercises is a collaborative process involving the FOSC, the Area Committee, and industry. Division of labor and level of effort among all government and industry stakeholders is exercise-specific. The lead exercise planning role may be filled by either USCG or EPA, industry, or a combination thereof. However, it is important that the design team composition includes all appropriate stakeholders. A joint exercise design team should be comprised of representatives from the federal, state, and local government agencies, the local response community, and an industry plan holder. If applicable, tribal entities will be invited to participate. The lead planning element, if one is designated, will coordinate the overall execution of the Area FE/FSE; however, it remains the ultimate responsibility of the Area Committee under the direction of the FOSC. The lead planning partner and the Area Committee Chair will share the final decision-making authority for the design of the exercise, including the scope and scenario. Exercise Documentation . All exercises should be documented and maintained at the facility; documentation should specify: e> The type of exercise; Date and time of the exercise; A description of the exercise; The objectives met in the exercise; The components of the response plan exercised; and Lessons learned. • Exercise documentation should be kept on file for the required length of time depending on the regulating agency (three (3) years for the U.S. Coast Guard and/or DOT/PHMSA and five (5)years for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency). • Copies of the Request for Credit Form, and the Exercise Notification Form are found in Appendix H.
