REC295-1283 | 7 - Inter-agency communication | Consider bringing other agencies onto the SA Government Radio Network, in particular, Department of Education and Child Development and local government, to support more effective coordination and provide a reliable communications contingency during emergencies. |
REC295-1274 | 35 - Business and Industry in relation to industry | That relevant agencies, such as the Department of State Development, SA Police and emergency services, collaborate to establish an education campaign to encourage businesses in South Australia to develop Business Continuity Plans which, among other potential hazards such as flood and fire, also take into account the potential impact of an extended power outage. |
REC295-1306 | 9 - Community education | Develop practical policy outcomes to support resilience (e.g. the 72- hour model) and promote this broadly to community through media, awareness campaigns, policies etc. Research should be undertaken to gain insight into the types of messaging and activities that have the most impact on sustained behaviour change within the community before committing to a particular model. |

REC149-3132 | 35 - Business and Industry in relation to industry | Coverage of the regime should be increased to cover the complete hydrocarbons production system from wells through to custody transfer point or reasonable physical/technical system boundary. If NOPSA is also to be responsible for Carbon Capture and Storage it needs to be resourced to ensure that this does not detract from NOPSA's current responsibilities. |
REC149-3131 | 35 - Business and Industry in relation to industry | The exploration/production operator making all major decisions related to petroleum activities (i.e. selection of rig, well design and selection of service companies) should be made responsible for demonstrating to the regulator that drilling operations can be conducted safely. Where the drilling contractor owns the rig and conducts the day-to-day management of safety on the rig, this duty can be described in a rig specific Safety Case that is owned by the drilling contractor. This rig specific Safety Case does not have to be submitted for every well/well operation. |
REC149-3146 | 35 - Business and Industry in relation to industry | NOPSA should consider establishing a small forum for consultation consisting of representatives of relevant stakeholders. The representatives should have standing, with authority to participate in decision making and take on commitment on behalf of their stakeholder group. |
REC149-3142 | 19 - Offences | NOPSA should use encouragement as the primary tool of enforcing compliance provided willingness to improve is exhibited by the players. |
REC149-3138 | 38 - Agency/Department Reporting | The current KPI measures used by the Regulator and industry need to be reassessed and the performance indicators need to be related to the risk profiles of the industry. The industry needs to develop the indicators, which need to be agreed and measured by the industry in discussion with other stakeholders. The KPI's selected should be published in comparison with the worldwide offshore industry and with other industries. NOPSA should continue discussions with Australian Safety and Compensation Council (ASCC) with a view to adopting their goals. |
REC149-3133 | 35 - Business and Industry in relation to industry | Because some issues related to emergency response are beyond any single operator and usually occur outside the title area, there is a need for the representatives of the offshore industry to work together with other governments, interested and involved parties to develop the strategies to be utilised and the emergency planning model that will satisfy the requirements of all parties. |
