SÖKÖ
SÖKÖ ...• Provides comprehensive instructions on management of
on-shore oil incidents for regional oil combating authorities: Regional Rescue Services and Regional Environmental Centres.
• Develops on-shore oil recovery operations by producing detailed action plans represented in guidebooks for RRSs and RECs, focusing on the practical problems in arranging oil combating
• The SÖKÖ action plan is a complementary study to the regional and national statutory contingency plans
• The action plan differs from the governmental plans by focusing only on on-shore response excluding the at-sea response

SÖKÖ guidebook
• The guidebook is used as an action plan, a manual for the response commander as well as for training both authorities and volunteers
• Is an extensive collection of studies undertaken by further education students and specialists under the supervision of the project steering committee
• Authorities supervise the project and accept the results included in the contingency plan & guidebook
• Completed in Kymenlaakso → Available online at www.kyamk.fi/soko (in Finnish)
SÖKÖ
The necessity of contingency planning
• Modifications in oil combating legislation in 2005• Approximately 7 800 tankers operate in the Gulf of
Finland annually (1) • ~20 tankers a day operating in the sea-area
characterized by shallow waters, rocky shores and narrow fairways as well as a partial ice-coverage during the wintertime.
• Coastal waters repeatedly suffer small size oil spills caused by illegal bilge discharges from passing vessels.
• Oil reaching the shores in major spill is evident

SÖKÖ
How to set the objects• Oil combating authorities set the subjects to be
investigated, most of them being practical problems in arranging oil combating
• Most issues are consequences of the amendments in the oil combating legislation 2005
• Action plan & guidebook is scaled on the worst possible oil incident threatening the area
• Risk assessment of oil spill incident based on the investigations of VTT and SYKE
SÖKÖ
SOKO’s questions
• There is 30 000 tons of oil waste on-shores and in the archipelago, how to get rid of it time/cost effectively and safely?
• What are the most challenging bottlenecks in the logistic chain?
• What should be taken into account when coordinating trans agency co-operation (governmental and regional agencies, businesses, volunteers, residents, etc) ?

Communication• One thesis examined the communication issues, in order
to determine arrangements in internal communication, information and media.
• Communication between authorities is well organised and practised
• The difficulty is to ensure communication between authorities and the other employees like volunteers or businesses, which have different communication traditions
• A new project was established to go deeper into this subject and to create a communication plan for response management team.
SÖKÖ
Human resources
• Determining the procedures in receiving work force
• Arranging personnel administration with salary payment,
• Ensuring health care and occupational safety issues.
• These issues together with other liability issues such as insuring against accidents are very important, especially if the volunteers are used

SÖKÖClean-up procedures and transportation of oily wastes
- Cleaning operations are executed line by line, simultaneously in the area of 20 kilometers (15 km in the mainland, 5 km in the archipelago)
- Areas to be cleaned first are prioritized ↔ the oil combating resources have to be allocated effectively according to ecological, economical or recreational importance of polluted areas

Handling oily wastes
• Previous oil incidents around the world have demonstrated situations were the waste disposal system has been overloaded after an oil spill
• Charting temporary storing places and producing construction instructions for storing sites (example)
• Charting final treatment methods and disposal capacities (OSWATT project)
• Waste streams and separation..

• In order to avoid overloading of the waste disposal system, the oily waste units have to be stored temporarily
• Adequate areas to build up storage sites are charted and documented

Working method• Guidebook includes several work packages consisting of one
or more studies• Most of the work packages were executed as theses by adult
vocational students and specialists under the supervision of authorities and the project steering committee
• Project personnel ensures that the students get in contact with all the right experts and authorities, as well as source material and that they achieve the objectives within a set limit
• Also fills in possible information gaps, edits and summarises results into a comprehensible and easy to examine guidebook
• The role of the oil combating authorities in the project is to provide practical information, supervise and accept the outcome.
SÖKÖ
• Each Rescue region has a SOKO working team with:
– Rescue Service officer
– Environmental officer
– manager from project
• Students
• Experts and specialists

Conclusions• SOKO is a fairly good tool for authorities to accomplish
the required planning in a prompt schedule and low cost• With detailed instructions, the SOKO plan is attached to
the statutory regional response plan as a complementary supplement
• The SOKO plan is taken into use when the incident rises to the major scale and important resources are needed
• The Response Commander can use the guidebook to ensure the whole logistic chain is considered and reduce the combating organisation as needed
