This powerpoint presentation begins by providing a brief overview of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Water Security Initiative and
Contamination Warning Systems (CWS). An overview of the Greater Cincinnati Water Works (GCWW) Full Scale Exercise is presented and includes: a scenario-driven, real-time simulation that
implemented GCWW and local response partner
agency protocols for detecting and responding to a
drinking water contamination incident;
over 50 people from ten different agencies
participated in this large scale exercise. The purpose of the exercise was to allow GCWW and
response partner agencies to test their protocols for
detecting and responding to a possible drinking water
contamination incident. Full scale exercise outcomes are presented for component operations, field operations, ICS functions, and crisis communications.
