CMEPCMEPCivil/Military Emergency PreparednessCivil/Military Emergency Preparedness
• Program that coordinates training of emergencyoperation centers in former Soviet block states andencourages a transition from military to civil departments
• Created after the nuclear power plant disaster atChernobyl
• Directed from the USACE Europe District office inWiesbaden Germany
• Funded by NATO and their Partnership for Peaceprogram

CMEP Program MissionCMEP Program Mission
• Program goal is to encourage non-NATOnations to work together, and prepare inadvance in the event that one of thesecountries has an emergency and wouldbenefit from support from their neighbors.
• GIS technology is one vehicle used tofocus on sharing information and workingtogether

HEC Participation in CMEPHEC Participation in CMEP
• HEC has been invited to be GIS facilitators forCMEP exercises with dam break disasterscenarios or other Hydrology and Hydraulicsissues
• Thus far we have worked with delegations from:– Armenia– Tajikistan– Latvia– Bosnia and Herzegovina

GIS FacilitatorGIS Facilitator
• CMEP has a strong GIS component andthe exercises illustrate how it can be usedin emergency management
• CMEP Facilitators advance their GISknowledge and capabilities– General lecture’s to entire group– More technical discussions with GIS working
groups

• Disaster scenario was a large earthquakethat caused a dam to fail and flood a city inTajikistan and then flood Uzbekistan

Dam Failure AnalysisDam Failure Analysis• Must be prepared and setup before the event• Software:
– GIS Software (ArcView, ArcGIS, …)– Dam Breach Capable Hydraulic Analysis Tool (HEC-RAS)
• Skills:– GIS– Hydraulic Engineering (unsteady flow modeling)
• Effort/Time required for this analysis:– Gathering GIS data (images, terrain) ~months– Performing hydraulic analysis ~weeks– Flood inundation mapping ~weeks
• Total ~2-3 Months

GIS SoftwareGIS Software
• One license of ArcGIS 9 is provided byCMEP to the host country
• Some Exercises use ArcGIS 8 (and in thecase of Bosnia and Herzegovina ArcView3.x)
• Product licensing fees are a burden onthese countries and organizations

Language BarriersLanguage Barriers
• In most cases English works fine• In Tajikistan we had simultaneous
translation

Security ConcernsSecurity Concerns
• Tajikistan – had security with us at all times andthey slept in cots outside our hotel room doors– When I coordinated with another GIS facilitator, she
said no problem (but I did not know that she wascomparing it to Iraq, be sure to get the baseline)
• Sarajevo, BiH – In country brief reported that it issafer than any large city in US, … but here is thenumber for the Marines– don’t call unless needed, apparently they make an
entrance.

Other ObservationsOther Observations
• What does 40% Unemployment look like?– Grass was cut by hand– Hotel turned back lot to a large vegetable garden– Fruit trees instead of ornamental trees
