Cal OES, US Navy Exercise to Ensure Mutual Interoperability for Potential Radiological Response

The Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) recently had an opportunity to engage with the US Navy and other local, state and federal agencies, for a tabletop exercise related to a radiological scenario. This was a follow-up to a full scale exercise two years ago. This was a chance to see where the USN and its partners have grown in our simulated response, and to network with fellow public information officers. This tabletop exercise is intended for everyone to have a complete understanding of how the USN communicates to the public and to better plan our joint response in the highly unlikely event of an emergency on one of our California-based nuclear powered warships. The exercises took place at Naval Base Point Loma at the entrance to San Diego Bay. This story features interviews with the base commodore, Captain John (Patrick) Friedman, Commander Christopher Carter, captain of the fast attack submarine USS Alexandria SSN 757, and fantastic video of naval warships and their crews shot by the USN. After watching this you’ll have a better understanding of how the USN treats the use of nuclear power and the importance of interoperability among the military and its local, federal and state partners, including Cal OES.
