Summary[edit]

Description

Greetings from Cameroon, West Africa!

During the week of September 3-7, 2007, the NOS Office of Response and Restoration sent a member to Douala, Cameroon, West Africa, to co-teach a class on Incident Command System with the U.S. Coast Guard to 30 students from the governments of Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon. Attendees represented the executive level of many ministries including the Cameroonian Navy, municipal fire departments, mining, civil defense, and public health ministries. Capping off the class was an oil spill exercise that showcased the General NOAA Oil Modeling Environment program developed in OR&R. The students eagerly asked for more background on ICS, joint contingency planning, and spill modeling; many wanted their superiors to learn ICS as well in order to implement the system on a larger scale.

Pictured above are the students from Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon, as well as course instructor Mark Dix, from OR&R, and co-instructors from the U.S. Coast Guard and U. S. Forest Service.
