Unannounced Drill Program
Title 14, California Code of Regulations, Section 820.02(g), states in part, "The Administrator may call a drill or exercise, or conduct an inspection, to validate all or part of a contingency plan. This drill, exercise, or inspection may be announced or unannounced." Unannounced drills are coordinated and conducted by OSPR with the support of other federal, state, and local government entities as necessary. The objectives of unannounced drills held under these guidelines are to demonstrate the ability of plan holders to make timely notifications to all appropriate parties, ensure the deployment of resources in accordance with their response planning volume listed in their approved California plans and insure proper advance notice has been given to OSRO’s for shoreline protection requirements.
