Louisiana Business Emergency Operations Center

State Initiative

To support disaster management in Louisiana by developing an accurate understanding of economic impacts to critical infrastructures and major

economic drivers, as well as facilitating the coordination of businesses and volunteer organizations with the public sector through enhanced resource and

information management.

A Partnership Of

CONNECTING FOR A RESILIENT AMERICA

Public-Private Partnerships

The NIMSAT Institute is the incident commander of the LABEOC.

• Through the Louisiana BEOC, the State of Louisiana will :– Facilitate communication between public and private sectors– Enable business and industry to identify roadblocks to recovery– Reduce overall economic impacts to Louisiana businesses and industry– Mobilize government resources

- Ex.- Fuel Supply-Demand Project

*The long term goal would be to create and replicate this model in Louisiana, the Gulf Coast and the Nation.

Current Issues in Public-Private Partnerships

• Can government resources be utilized?

• What types of information are useful and can be shared?

• What are the motivators and roadblocks for such

partnerships?

• Is there a governance structure that all sectors could utilize

in engaging with their counterparts or other stakeholders in

response?

• What is the capability maturity model?

• Modeling, Simulation and Analysis of Operational Capability for

Simple and Complex Events

Challenges & Progress

• Information Sharing Between the Sectors- Government-to-Business Information Sharing- Business-to-Government Information Sharing** The LABEOC has begun to engage these partners in willingness to participate

• Motivators or Roadblocks- Concerns between sectors- LABEOC facilitate these partnerships- Legal policy- Integrated monitoring systems** The LABEOC managers have begun to coordinate and

solve these issues. Since the LABEOC is a neutral party there is a receptiveness .

CONNECTING FOR A RESILIENT AMERICA

Challenges & Progress

• Capability Maturity Model

- Complex Emergencies

- Real Time Plans

- Measuring performance between interactions

** LABEOC plans to engage all sectors through a

information hub website to ensure coordinating communications

• Established private sector supply chain models already created- CPFR Model – (Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment

**Industry Standard framework in development

Fuel Supply-Demand Project

To enhance Energy sector resiliency through improved information sharing from the “platform to the pump” that enable communications across the energy supply chain to facilitate processing delivery, and distribution, while enhancing the State Energy Profile.

In collaboration with Department of Energy & Louisiana Department of Natural Resources

CONNECTING FOR A RESILIENT AMERICA

Current Development

• SmartGrid policy

• Energy Supply-Demand Model

• Evacuation Fuel Plan• Improved LABEOC measures for monitoring energy sector

• Conduct regional exercises that include the Gulf Coast Region

CONNECTING FOR A RESILIENT AMERICA

Fuel Supply Grant

• Transportation/Fuel Demand Model – How much fuel is needed to support an evacuation?

• Behavioral Social Network Model– When will people evacuate? (shadow evacuations?)– Where are they likely to go?

• Fuel Supply System Model– What is the fuel availability at gas stations?

• Results for Decision Support – Can we mobilize adequate emergency fuel, if needed?

Private Industry Response to Gustav/Ike

• Public-Private Partnerships– Mobilized business products and services: $23.8

million dollars– Enhanced Situational Awareness: shortages of

fuel

• CIKR Consequence Models– Reported disruptions to operating capacity of

120 petroleum, natural gas, chemical and electricity facilities (CITGO Refinery, Entergy, Henry Hub, LOOP, Port Fourchon, etc.)

– Economic impact to Oil & Gas industry: $7.6B - $8.3B

CONNECTING FOR A RESILIENT AMERICA

Future Research Areas

• LABEOC has begun research on partnerships

• Ability to integrate systems and plans between

sectors

• State Emergency Center communication

• Facilitation on all levels (legal issues, monitoring,

planning, etc.)

• Possible merging of operational systems

• Regional cooperation

• Energy sector and Fuel Supply- Demand project
