Unit 7 Assignment Group Assignment – Risk Analysis and Identcorbing9ttj
Unit 7 Assignment Group Assignment – Risk Analysis and
Identification
Assignment 7 will also be completed as a team assignment. Teams for the Group Assignment will
be assigned by the end of week 2. Each team will be randomly assigned in Blackboard. At the
beginning of or prior to Week 4, the team should assign a team leader to coordinate the team's
work due in Week 7.
Your team represents the State’s contractor selected by the State to carry out the Risk Assessment
Project for this case study. Your company's senior management and the State's Project Manager
have requested that you prepare a risk management plan that identifies potential risks and identifies
risk management strategies. From the course content and readings, you know that the overall
purpose of risk planning is to anticipate possible risk events and be ready to take appropriate action
when risk events occur—to eliminate or reduce negative impacts on the project.
Scenario
As the industry moves into a smart-shipping era, the risk of cyber threats is at an all-time high.
Digitalized ships, increasing interconnectedness, the extended use of electronic data exchange and
electronic navigation increases the likelihood of cyber-attacks in variety, frequency and sophistication.
Cyber threats are one of the most serious economic and international security challenges facing the
maritime industry today. The need for protection and security enforcements to mitigate the threats is
more important today than ever. Guidelines to support secure cyber operations and contingency plans
to be followed in a case of cyber incident have become necessary. The XYZ Shipping Chamber
recognizing the increasing concern of its Members with regards to the cyber security and their
protection, developed this document with the intention to create awareness of the threat and provide
guidance to its Members.
Company Description
“We own and/or operate over 100 ships which include tankers, bulkers, and container ships. We employ
directly over 3,000 employees in seven offices worldwide. The company operates as an owner and
technical operator, including crewing services”.
Motivation
“Driving this shipping company’s cyber security initiatives is the increasing awareness of the invasive
nature of cyber-criminal activity in the shipping industry. Cyber threat has imposed an elevated cyber
security related risk awareness from ship owners, the company board of directors, cargo owners, and
legal / regulatory bodies such as TMSA, IMO and USCG to name some, as well as P&I club coverage”.
4.1 “Reducing the risk should be the main deliverable of the company’s cyber security strategy and
outcome of the risk assessment decided by senior management. At a technical level, this would include
the necessary actions to be implemented to establish and maintain an agreed level of cyber security.”

Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facility Requirements
Chapter 15:
Incineration of Hazardous Waste
Unit Lesson
Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facility Requirements
In Unit III, you learned about how hazardous waste is regulated from its creation through its transportation.
Ultimately, our hazardous waste must reach its final destination. It must be treated to make it less hazardous
and/or disposed of in a safe way. RCRA regulations for Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities (TSDFs)
are even more extensive than those for generators and transporters (Pichtel, 2014). These regulations are
found in 40 CFR 264-165 Subparts A through G. “Treatment”, “Storage”, and “Disposal” all have specific
definitions that are covered in 40 CFR 270.2.
Subpart A
Subpart A of the regulations cover general issues, such as exclusions from 40 CFR 264 and 265. There are a
variety of exclusions, including farmers disposing of waste pesticides from his or her own use, a totally
enclosed treatment facility, and a generator accumulating waste on-site. If a facility does not fall under exempt
status as outlined in Subpart A, the facility is subject to Subpart B.
Subpart B
Subpart B covers general facility standards including recordkeeping requirements, personnel requirements,
and safety requirements. TSDFs must obtain a site-specific Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ID
number. Before any waste can be treated or disposed of, the facility must obtain a thorough chemical analysis
of a sample of the waste. A waste analysis plan (WAP) must outline the process and include information such
as the sampling methods used, the procedures used for testing, and the frequency of waste re-evaluation
(EPA). Subpart B also requires a TSDF to have specific security in place at the facility, including a 24-hr
surveillance system and barriers surrounding the active portion of the facility (Pichtel, 2014). The facility also
must inspect the facility on a regular basis. The frequency of inspection varies with the facility and the type of
equipment used, as well as the likelihood of an incident if a malfunction were to occur. RCRA specifies
inspection frequencies for certain types of TSDF equipment. For example, loading and unloading area should
be inspected daily, and containment buildings should be inspected weekly (Pichtel, 2014).

65. Developing controls at 0200 hrs with the building on fire and babies hanging from the balconies is a %&$#@! Make good use of your Discretionary Time
66. “The serious losses in life and property resulting annually from fires cause me deep concern. I am sure that such unnecessary waste can be reduced. The substantial progress made in the science of fire prevention and fire protection in this country during the past forty years convinces me that the means are available for limiting this unnecessary destruction.” -----Harry S Truman May 13, 1948
67. Fire Reduction Controls Education Engineering Enforcement II – 1976 III – 1986 IV – 1996 V - 2003 February 1966
68. Engineering Require residential sprinklers in all newly constructed one and two family homes. Period. Change building codes so that all building materials must pass fire resistance performance standards, not just “gravity-defiance” standards. Change building codes in Wild land Urban Interface areas to prohibit the use of combustible building materials. Mandate the use of block, concrete, stucco, and other non-combustible materials. Period. Mandate Fire-safe cigarettes nation-wide. Source: Avsec, R.P., 21st Century Manifesto, Fire Chief Magazine, Mutual Aid blog, http://blog.firechief.com/mutual_aid/?author=6
69. Education Require that all residential property in a locality—rental and occupant-owned—has a copy of the locality’s fire prevention code “do’s and don’ts”, written in “plain English” and other applicable languages for the community. Require fire departments and school systems to jointly deliver a standard fire prevention curriculum in elementary, middle, and high schools every two years. Require completion of fire prevention course of study as prerequisite for obtaining a residential lease or buying a home. Require insurance companies to inspect rental and occupant-owned residential properties before insuring the property. Require policy holders to submit an affidavit to their insurance company stating that they comply with the fire prevention provisions of their policy and their locality every year as a condition to renew their coverage. Source: Avsec, R.P., 21st Century Manifesto, Fire Chief Magazine, Mutual Aid blog, http://blog.firechief.com/mutual_aid/?author=6
70. Enforcement Investigate all fires and issue a court summons to the building occupant if a fire is determined to have been caused by their negligence. (Just like a traffic accident: if you’re at fault, you pay the price.) Bill the occupant for the cost of fire suppression services when a fire is determined to have been the result of occupant negligence. Fine builders and contractors when a fire investigation reveals that improper building materials or building practices (a) started the fire or (b) contributed to the spread of the fire. Fine rental property owners who do not maintain their rental properties and whose properties are not in compliance with the locality’s fire prevention code. Incorporate a locality’s level of fire protection and history of fire loss into the financial processes that financial institutions use to determine a locality’s bond rating.

Editor's Notes
#1 – Robert Avsec is retired battalion chief who served the citizens of Chesterfield County, Virginia for twenty-five years with the men and women of the Chesterfield Fire & EMS Department. During his “1st Career”, he served a combined nine-and-a-half years assigned to staff officer manager positions—a unique experience that he says helped make him a much more rounded chief office. Those staff assignments included: Battalion Commander, Emergency Operations Division; Manager, Emergency Communications Center; Director of Training and Safety Division; and Director, EMS Division.He’s also been an instructor for training programs—at the local, state, and federal level--targeting student populations ranging from entry-level providers through chief officers. He’s been on the instructor staffs of both the Virginia Department of Fire Programs and the National Fire Academy, Emmitsburg, MD. #2-He embarked on a 2nd career working with a small, private sector ambulance service in southern Ohio helping a young company—in business less than 5 years—with strategic planning and organizational development. Robert has also worked as an Instructor and Course Developer with the GA Fire Academy on the campus of the Georgia Public Safety Training Center in Forsyth, GA. His primary roles were teaching management level courses and developing a curriculum to meet NFPA Standard 1021 for Chief Officer III in GA. Currently, we’re delighted to have him assigned as a Senior Analyst from CALIBRE Systems working at HQDA IMCOM in IMES-F. Please join me in giving Robert a warm Army welcome!
