Preparedness Services Planning Chadux works closely with member company personnel to ensure that they are ready to provide effective initial response to a spill. Training Chadux offers a variety of classes taught by certified instructors with experience in spill response, waste management, incident management, and wildlife handling and rehabilitation. Classes and exercises are scheduled to keep Chadux employees and contract personnel trained and response ready. Many sessions are open to both member and non-member companies. Maintenance and Exercises Each year, Chadux conducts exercises in at least three of its response hubs. Most of these exercises are linked with member company facilities in those cities. Response equipment in each hub is inspected and serviced annually. Additionally, Chadux works with its members to plan, conduct, and evaluate tabletop, ICS, and deployment exercises. Response Services: Since 1993, Chadux has provided spill response expertise and services on a 24-hour basis. With equipment hubs situated in 10 Alaskan cities, Chadux can rapidly respond to pollution incidents throughout Alaska. Chadux augments its own response resources by employing partnerships with organizations across the state. This not only provides equipment resources, but also enhances Chadux's personnel resources. Chadux is classified as an Oil Spill Removal Organization (OSRO) in both the Western Alaska and Prince William Sound Captain of the Port Zones as well as being registered with the State of Alaska as a Primary Response Action Contractor (PRAC) and Non-Tank Vessel Cleanup Contractor (NTVCC). |
