Environmental incident: informing local residents and the supervisory authorities
In the event of an environmental incident, swift and clear communication is essential. CrisisRadar helps environmental agencies, local authorities and the provincial government to alert local residents and ensure that supervisory bodies and partners are all on the same page.
What happens
A leak occurs at a business, causing soil or water contamination, or there is a strong odour nuisance in the surrounding area. Local residents notice a smell, become concerned and want to know whether it is dangerous and what they should do. The environmental agency investigates the cause and determines whether any measures are required. At the same time, reports are coming in and the press and local council are requesting information. It is important that local residents and regulators quickly gain the same, reliable understanding of the situation.
