MANIFESTS

Accidental release of volatile Hazard Noxious Substances (HNS) at sea can lead to the formation of toxic, flammable or even explosive gas clouds potentially hazardous for nearby population and the environment. The objective of MANIFESTS (MANaging risks and Impacts From Evaporating and gaseous Substances To population Safety) is to address the lack in response guidance on dealing with such airborne releases and with decisions over sheltering or evacuation of the crew, responders and the coastal population. The project seeks to improve response capacities of marine pollution responders through the development of innovative decision support tools and operational guidelines and by facilitating access to relevant knowledge and databases, particularly on volatile HNS spills. RBINS contributes to the HNS database, modeling and decision support system.
