What do we have to do? – WPT Structure

WPT4

Activity A.T4.1. Emergency Planning and cultural heritages protection: how do the Alps deal with this issue? Activity A.T4.2. Emergency Planning for cultural assets protection: integrating the local plans Activity A.T4.3. Simulation Exercises. From the Emergency Plans to their test implementation

3rd Partners Meeting - Innsbruck, 12th-14th November 2019

Activity A.T4.1 Begins: 2019.12 Ends: 2020.12

What do we have to do? Activities /1

An investigation aimed at making a critical comparison of the Emergency Planning regulations in the Alps (roles, responsibilities, involved bodies and subjects), with a in depth analysis of the different schemes applied by competent authorities and Civil Protection bodies in the field of cultural heritage protection against natural hazards Deliverable D.T4.1.1 - Critical overview of Emergency Planning schemes at Alpine level

3rd Partners Meeting - Innsbruck, 12th-14th November 2019

Activity A.T4.2 Begins: 2019.09 Ends: 2020.11

What do we have to do? Activities /2

Pilot areas are called to update their Civil Protection Plans, with sections dedicated to the safeguard

• f cultural assets against natural disasters. The Plans will include a clear definition of the chain of

command in salvaging activities, with Operating Procedures defining tasks, roles and responsibilities

• f subjects involved in case of alert or emergency due to natural phenomena. This set of experiences

will be finally synthetized in a Guideline, conceived to transfer the knowledge at Alpine scale Deliverable D.T4.2.1 - Emergency Plans for salvaging cultural assets in pilot areas Deliverable D.T4.2.2 - A new concept of Civil Protection Plan

3rd Partners Meeting - Innsbruck, 12th-14th November 2019

Activity A.T4.3 Begins: 2020.10 Ends: 2021.02

What do we have to do? Activities /3

Simulation Exercises are a crucial instrument to make local communities capable to apply the Operating Procedures. On dedicated events, pilot areas will host a Simulation Exercise. A set of differentiated disasters will be simulated, to give Civil Protection bodies the opportunity to test the Operating Procedures with a “learning by doing” approach. Finally, a format of Simulation Exercise will be synthetized to facilitate its dissemination and use at Alpine level Deliverable D.T4.3.1 - Pilot areas test the Operating Procedures Deliverable D.T4.3.2 - A format for Simulation Exercises

CHEERS PROJECT. STARTING POINT

Preliminary hints:

• nowadays, Civil Protection Plans rarely address the issue of estimating the exposure of Cultural Heritage to risks (

consequent lack of Operating Procedures aimed at planning safeguarding interventions, in alert or emergency scenarios)

• Civil Protection structures (mainly at Municipality level) seldom integrate a reference person who is responsible for

planning and coordinating interventions for the safeguard of Cultural Heritage in alert or emergency phases  a general problem in the large majority of Alpine Space countries

3rd Partners Meeting - Innsbruck, 12th-14th November 2019

Civil Protection Plan* A Civil Protection Plan is the legal document containing all the intervention procedures necessary to cope with any disaster expected in a given territory. The plan adopts the «prevision and prevention plan» (programma di previsione e prevenzione) and is the instrument that allows the authorities to organize and coordinate the rescue operations for the safeguard of the population and the goods in a certain area at risk. Its main goal is to guarantee in any possible way to keep, in the face of a disaster, the «civilized» life standard, endangered by conditions that may implicate severe physical and psychological distress. Does Cultural Heritage have any influence on it?

“previous” WPTs +

• wn elements and
• utputs

3rd Partners Meeting - Innsbruck, 12th-14th November 2019

Bringing the pieces together… /2

a. Hazard Analysis b. Exposure Analysis c. Risk Scenarios

• What are the hazards? (WP2)
• What asset/items? (WP1)
• Which assets/items are exposed? what scenarios can I build?

(WP1 + WP2)

• What information is given in the catalogues and in the hazard

maps useful for protection/salvaging? (WP1 + WP2)

• Which asset/item is higher on priority? (WP1)
• Which asset is vulnerable to a certain hazard? How? What can I

do then (mitigation/safeguarding)? (WP3)

3rd Partners Meeting - Innsbruck, 12th-14th November 2019

Bringing the pieces together… /3

• Who does what? What are the roles, the responsibilities,

the hierarchies?

• What characteristics does the item have that have influence
• n the interventions (size, weight, etc.)? (WP4)
• What interventions would be recommended? (WP4)
• What resources are available? (WP4)
• What interventions can I actually plan? (WP4)

a.Operational Procedures b.Responsibilities & Command Chain

3rd Partners Meeting - Innsbruck, 12th-14th November 2019

Bringing the pieces together… /4

• What are the responsibilities for what concerns Cultural Heritage

management in the partner countries? (this has influence on the Intervention Model and, in some case, on the available resources)

• What interventions the operators are actually able/legitimated to

perform?

• How is a Civil Protection Plan structured in the different partner

countries? (A.T4.1)

• What are the responsibilities for what concerns the Civil Protection

system in the partner countries? (A.T4.1) …plus some additional questions (and more…)
