4.1.3 Review of the POE Once received, the <strong>INSARAG</strong> Secretariat will forward the POE to the selected IEC Team Leader. The IEC Team Leader will coordinate a detailed review of the POE. If required, the IEC Team Leader will conduct interviews with relevant members of the USAR team, the IEC Mentor and <strong>INSARAG</strong> Focal Point. They may also request additional documentation in support of the POE. The IEC Classifiers will base their recommendation on whether to proceed as planned or postpone the IEC exercise on the documented evidence of the POE. The POE therefore forms a critical component of the preparation process. The aim is for the decision to go ahead or postpone to be finalised 4 months ahead of the scheduled date to allow sufficient time for the final preparation. 4.2 IEC Exercise The EXCON is required to design and develop a field exercise (FIELDEX) that will provide the platform for the IEC. There are several key elements to consider in the development of the FIELDEX: • The exercise is to be conducted over a minimum of the exercise is 36 hours, divided as follows: o The first 6 hours are used for the Response Capacity Evaluation which includes: Alert and Activation; Recall of the USAR team; Pre-deployment medical screening; Pre-deployment logistics check; Pre-deployment personal equipment issue; Pre-deployment briefings; Departure customs and immigration; Getting to the point that the USAR team is ready to “board the aircraft”; o The remaining 30 hours are used for the Technical Capacity Evaluation which includes: Set up and operation of the RDC and OSOCC; Set up and operation of the BoO; Reconnaissance operations; USAR operations; Demobilisation; NOTE: The travel time to the exercise venue should not count as part of the 36 hours. • The technical phase of the exercise is required to be conducted at a suitable venue that provides realistic props commensurate with the level of classification being sought; • The technical scenarios should resemble real-life situations likely encountered during actual emergencies; 26 IEC Guidelines, 2011 Edition
• The degree of technical complexity must be commensurate with the level of classification being sought; • The technical scenarios must enable the USAR team to demonstrate all of the technical skills required by the IEC Checklist; • If the USAR team is aiming for a Heavy classification, the EXCON needs to ensure there are two separate works sites with props that commensurate with the technical requirements. Separate work sites are defined as any work site that requires separate logistical support; • The EXCON is required to introduce injects that enable the USAR team to demonstrate its redundant capacity of personnel and equipment; • The EXCON is required to ensure the USAR team is restricted to making use of the equipment cache with which they would deploy to demonstrate that it is selfsufficient. During the IEC, no equipment from external sources may be utilised except for a crane to demonstrate proper rigging and heavy lifting capability; • The EXCON team should instruct role players to talk English so that the interaction between the USAR team and the role players can be properly evaluated by the IEC team. If this is not possible, then translation should be provided. The exercise should be designed making use of constantly evolving realistic structural collapse scenarios and should not be an exercise that demonstrates individual technical skills (staging the exercise using prefixed skill-performance stations). Furthermore, following the occurrence of the simulated disaster the exercise is required to encompass all of the key stages of international disaster response. NOTE: For the FIELDEX it is most likely that the USAR team will deploy to the venue by road. The IEC team will still however evaluate the air transport plan, as presented in the POE, if this is the means of transport used for international deployment. 4.2.1 Alert and Activation • Notification of a Breaking Emergency; • Monitoring of situation and placing the USAR team on standby; • Request for international assistance; • Approval for international deployment; • Activation of USAR team. 4.2.2 Mobilisation • Arrival of team members at designated Point of Assembly (POA); o Pre-deployment medical screening of people and canines; o Pre-deployment briefing; 27 IEC Guidelines, 2011 Edition
