Participation (NEAMWave21)
Each ICG/NEAMTWS Member State is invited to participate in the NEAMWave21 exercise. Participation levels may be different because it is up to each Member State to freely decide if and how to be part of the exercise. Member States wishing to participate in NEAMwave21 exercise have to fill in the online exercise subscription form provided here. During the NEAMWave, all the TWFP/NTWC/TNC of those NEAMTWS Member States, which have already subscribed for the services of a TSP will receive alert messages in Phase A. These TSPs subscribers are not expected to subscribe to the exercise through the online form, unless, for the time of the exercise, they would like to receive tsunami warning messages from both TSPs of the joint scenarios. TWFP/NTWC/TNCs of the Member States that are not a subscriber to a TSP yet, are specifically encouraged to subscribe to the NEAMWave21 scenario they are interested in since the exercise would be a good opportunity to subscribe to the activities of the TSPs, and they would be further encouraged to be permanent recipients of the TSPs. Each NEAMTWS Member State can choose to participate in one or more scenarios, since all of them are taking place in different half-days, therefore avoiding overlapping. Participation in the different scenarios should be decided on the basis of the Member State’s interest in the relative scenario play (i.e. the geographical area of interest). For each scenario chosen, the Member State has to specify which of the two or three phases will see its involvement. To participate in NEAMWave21, the minimum involvement requested for each chosen scenario is Phase A. However, the main aim of the exercise is to have CPA involved as much as possible, together with the respective tsunami message recipients (Tsunami Warning Focal Points/National Tsunami Warning Centres, TWFP/NTWC’s). Therefore, it is strongly recommended to also implement Phase B, and one of the exercise types.
Kindly complete the NEAMWave21 subscription form and press submit at the end of the survey.
