Event Description: |
On behalf of the United States and Canadian Coast Guards, you are cordially invited to participate in the Canada - United States Tabletop Exercise to be held in Rockland, ME, May 15th through 16th, 2018.
The purpose of this exercise is to improve the Atlantic Geographic Annex to the Joint Marine Pollution Contingency Plan and enhance coordination of search and rescue efforts between the two nations. The scenario we will be using involves a hypothetical collision between a cruise ship and a petroleum tank ship near Grand Manan Banks. This will result in a large cross border search and rescue, mass rescue operation, vessel salvage, and pollution response.
