Exercise Demo Information:
O'Gara recently conducted a Table-Top Exercise and a Full Scale Exercise for the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) which involved multiple WMD attacks on the public transportation system. Detonation of an RDD was the focus of the Table-Top Exercise. Agencies participating in these exercises included the MARTA Police Department, MARTA Rail, Bus and Station Services, Atlanta Police Department, Atlanta Fire Department, Federal Bureau of Investigations, Cobb County Police Department, Georgia Emergency Management Agency and Atlanta-Fulton County Emergency Management Agency. Scenario events caused a shut down of the entire public transportation system in both exercises. During the Full Scale Exercise, responders had to simultaneously deal with an explosion at one of the rail stations, a bus hostage situation and multiple WMD/IEDs which had the potential of contaminating surrounding areas with chemical, biological and/or radiological materials.
