DEBRIEFING – EQUIPMENT DEPLOYMENT<br />
Safety:<br />
What safety issues were not identified and could be managed more effectively?<br />
<br />
<br />
Hard hats on boats? – these are a hazard on boats and are not necessary to wear<br />
Hearing protection for blower operator and people working around the blower would be<br />
useful<br />
Equipment Deployment:<br />
How could we have improved the equipment deployment portion of the exercise?<br />
<br />
<br />
Perfect scenario would have incorporated anchors<br />
Exercise was rushed because of weather<br />
Equipment Deficiencies:<br />
What equipment deficiencies did you see?<br />
<br />
none<br />
Communications:<br />
How can we improve communications? (ie: was the sound acceptable? Were directions clear?)<br />
<br />
radio reception in this area is limited<br />
Training Effectiveness/Exercise Improvement:<br />
How can we make these exercises more effective?<br />
<br />
<br />
100% of group indicated that this training was effective for them<br />
Training twice per year may be beneficial<br />
Lessons Learned:<br />
What were the lessons learned?<br />
<br />
<br />
Application to previous knowledge is very helpful<br />
Standing up to volunteer as captains very helpful<br />
Other Types of Training:<br />
What other types of co-op exercises would you like to see?<br />
Not training, but access to a list of consultants’ phone numbers to call for assistance<br />
Other Equipment Needed in this Area:<br />
What additional equipment would be beneficial to this co-op area?<br />
<br />
A-frame signs to set out, rather than pounding into the ground<br />
