- 38 - 2.5. The District Commanders /OCA are to maintain close liaison directly with local civil authorities to assist in early notification of an oil spill incident. The District Commanders / OCA are to receive such notification on 24 hour basis. The primary agency reporting the oil spill incident is to do so on the oil spill report form placed at Annexure -1. Communication 2.6. The District Commander is to tender an amplifying report on the incident to the RCA on the POLREP message format placed at Annexure-1. POLREP constitutes accurate information at Part I and II of POLREP. This information is vital for an accurate assessment of the oil spill incident any pollution response is therefore directly dependent on the qualitative information available on the POLREP. 2.7. Coast Guard and Naval ships / aircraft’s are to report sighting of oil spills through established Coast Guard and Naval channels of communication by an OPS IMMEDIATE signal giving maximum information and details on the Oil Spill Report Form (OSRF). Subsequent amplifying reports are to be signaled by PRIORITY signal on the POLREP format. All reports rendered are to be addressed to the RCA with information to the CCA and OCA within whose District /Maritime State the oil spill incident occurs. Phase II : Activation of Regional Response Centre (RRC) 2.8. On receipt of POLREP, activate the Coast Guard Regional Headquarters Check off List to deal with the oil pollution. The check off List to be activated as follows :- (a) Execute POLRES (Pollution Response) (b) Man Coast Guard Ops-room continuously. (c) Inform following local authorities to intimate by fastest means any sign of pollution of the sea by oil along the coast and request them to keep Regional Commanders informed. (i) Port officers of the major and minor ports (ii) District Collectors (iii) Authorities at fish landing ports (iv) Coastal State Pollution Control Boards (d) Requisition of additional communication sets as required. (e) Ensure availability of the information regarding capabilities of ships, and Naval and Coast Guard aircrafts.
- 39 - (f) Ensure availability of ONGC ships with suitable equipment on board. (g) Request MMD/SCI for chartering of ships for oil transhipment. (h) Request DG shipping / MMD for appointment of receiver of wreck as per Merchant Shipping Act. (j) Send regular SITREP to CGHQ and all concerned. (k) Requisition for pollution response equipment held with ONGC, oil platforms, and port trusts as necessary. Phase III : Assessment, Surveillance and Evaluation 2.9. The Regional Headquarters of the Coast Guard are prepared for combating a major oil spill upto 10,000 tonnes. The requirement of combating a major oil spill above 10,000 tonnes will be undertaken by pooling all available resources and equipment in the Country. 2.10. An accurate assessment and evaluation of oil spill incident is essential prior to any appropriate spill control and clean up procedure and response can be activated. The basic issues need to be addressed towards a realistic assessment of the nature and size of the possible threat and of the resources most at risk bearing in mind the probable movement and expected trajectory of the spill as controlled by the forces of nature. 2.11. OSC/OCA is to expeditiously deploy an aircraft from the nearest Coast Guard Air station for an aerial surveillance over the area of reported spill. The aerial surveillance report should amplify such information as extent of spill blanket, spill profile, type of oil spill, identify source of spill, assess geographical features of land, identify potential ecological sensitive areas adjoining the area of spill and marine weather parameters to verify predictions. The surveillance may utilize IR/UV coverage to record ground realities of spill for analysis. 2.12. The OSA /OCA is to evaluate the probable fate of the oil spill in relation to the type of oil spilt and the prevailing seasonal and weather conditions. The movement of the oil is to be predicted from data of local weather phenomena and from a full knowledge of coastal topography, tide and currents, wind speed and direction and other marine weather data. 2.13. The OSC must evaluate with a fair degree of accuracy the expected trajectory with a fair degree of accuracy the expected trajectory and probable fate of the oil spill. If the oil slick is moving off shore towards the open sea and if no key resources are threatened, then no response may be necessary beyond monitoring on a regular basis the movement and behavior of the slick and is to
