Advanced Seminar. The seminar was conducted by the Civil Aviation Administration

Contingency planning is a major focus in China, which will be hosting the
Summer Olympics in Beijing in 2008 and the World's Fair in Shanghai in 2010.
Mr. Rayburn focused on emergency planning, preparedness, and response at
airports for hazardous substance releases arising by accident or intention
(i.e., terrorism). While the focus of the workshop was geared toward terrorism,
Mr. Rayburn also demonstrated that preparing for terrorist-driven impacts
can address many other root causes of spills, including operator error,
equipment malfunction, natural disaster, etc.
He discussed emergency response management and the tools and processes that
need to be engaged to help the leadership identify a crisis, proactively
address response needs, assess the current situation, delineate potential
impacts, minimize impacts, and recover.
He presented a mix of case studies, lessons learned from recent crises,
training/exercise regimes, and a response management tool being developed
by EnSafe's Information Technology Division.
