Scope1.1 To ensure a publicly acceptable and timely restoration ofan asset contaminated as a result of a natura
3、l or man-madedisaster, including a terrorist event, it is essential to have apre-planned strategy developed and tailored at the communitylevel and facilitated by the government which advocates thesupport and involvement of the affected community duringsuch a crisis period. This pre-planned strategy
4、for restorationwill need to be seamlessly incorporated into the overallemergency management process within the community. Thisguide presents a framework (that is, strategy) for involving thepublic in a stakeholder-focused, consensus-based event resto-ration process, for those situations where such i
5、nvolvement isessential to move a stalled (due to stakeholder issues) restora-tion process forward. This framework is designed to be anevent-specific, community-specific process to help prioritizeand consider actions necessary to optimize the restoration of anasset contaminated as the result of a dis

7、entand balancing of the impacts associated with human health,ecology, socio-cultural values, and economic implications. It isintended to be used in alignment with current Federal Emer-gency Management Agency (FEMA) guidance and otherguides and agency procedures and requirements to addressspecific st
8、akeholder issues and concerns.1.4 After completing the immediate response and stabiliza-tion phase of a disaster that required Federal assistance throughestablishment of a Joint Field Office (JFO) in accordance withthe National Response Plan, mitigation and recovery activitieswill need to be planned
9、 and initiated to address the significantlong-term impacts for any contaminated assets in the affectedarea. This guide provides a process that can be used by the JFOto gain stakeholder consensus on the restoration of these assets.1.5 The user should consult other restoration-related stan-dards, regu
10、lations, and sources for specific methods in theutilization of predictive models or other analysis tools that maybe required under a restoration planning assessment.1.6 Although the implementation of a restoration planningprocess is intended for use after a disaster occurs, it needs to bean integral
11、 part of a communitys pre-event planning activitiesand incorporated into appropriate community response plans.Identifying the important assets of a community and keystakeholders associated with each respective asset, before anevent occurs through a process such as Community AssetMapping, will help e
12、nsure a more efficient restoration processfollowing an actual contamination of the asset in a disastrousevent.1.7 Since restoration planning as proposed in this guidefollows a plan established prior to the event, it is important tocoordinate asset restoration plans with event preplanning onhow to mi
13、nimize damages to significant assets from uncertain,low-probability, but potentially costly natural and man-madedisasters. What will be required for asset restoration will be inpart dependent on what measures have been taken to protectthose same assets before the extreme event occurs. GuideE2506 pro

Summary of Guide4.1 The StakeholderFocused Consensus-Based EventRestoration Planning Process is a responsible party(ies)-led,stakeholder-focused, event-specific, and community-specificprocess
40、 established to help assess, prioritize and select opti-mized and timely actions to effect the efficient restoration of acontaminated asset to its original or agreed upon alteredcondition and use. The restoration planning process is designedto consider and balance the events implications on humanhea
41、lth, ecology, socio-cultural values, and economic impacts.The Stakeholder Committee, established by the responsibleparty(ies), will consider issues related to environmental justice,which relates to the fair treatment and meaningful involvementof all people, regardless of race, ethnicity, income, nat
42、ionalorigin or education level. The restoration planning process isan iterative process comprised of five main steps: (1) affectedstakeholder identification and formation of the StakeholderCommittee; (2) information gathering; (3) forecasting; (4)establishment of informed consent; and (5) implementa
43、tion andevaluation of initiatives.4.2 The restoration planning process focuses on the holisticassessment of the impacts of any event restoration project. Byutilizing effective, science-based tools and active involvementof affected stakeholders, the responsible party(ies) (with assis-tance from the a
44、ffected stakeholders) can readily identify andmanage the most important issues related to the timely andacceptable restoration of the affected asset.4.3 There is no set prescriptive path that can be universallyfollowed when initiating or participating, or both, in therestoration planning process. Th
45、e process must be tailored tomeet the specific needs of the affected community and condi-tions of the disaster. Depending on the needs and prioritiesdictated by the specifics of the disaster, different analysis toolsmay be needed to address specific issues.5. Significance and Use5.1 The understandin
46、g and management of the interrelation-ship between human health, ecological condition, socio-cultural values, and economic well-being of the communityand the high-value asset is essential to timely and acceptablerestoration. This standard guide is designed to help responsibleparty(ies) with the iden
47、tification and integration of affectedstakeholders and with the establishment of a process to identifyand resolve key issues essential to a satisfactory restoration.The standard guide is presented herein as a “framework” tohelp ensure that all the restoration planning process compo-nents (that is, h
48、uman health, ecological condition, socio-cultural values and economic well-being) are considered. Theframework is designed to allow a user to determine whichcomponents of the process are applicable to the restorationproblem being addressed, and to establish the level of analyti-cal detail necessary
49、for each component. It provides generalguidance to help with the selection of approaches and methodsfor specific analysis of each of the major restoration planningcomponents (that is, human health, ecological condition, socio-cultural values, and economic well-being).5.2 By actively involving affected stakeholders in the res-toration decision-making process, it will help the user to orientthe process to prioritize and consider the most important issuesof those whos lives are most directly impacted by theconsequences of the event and resulting restoration.
