Public advisory: Marine Search and Rescue training exercise off Port Taranaki
A controlled training exercise will be conducted off Port Taranaki to the Bell Block area on Sunday 14 December.
The multi-agency exercise is designed to test and improve the coordination and response capabilities of all agencies involved in maritime emergencies.
Taranaki Search and Rescue Coordinator and Public Team Supervisor Wade Callander says the exercise will involve rescue vessels and that people might notice smoke markers, objects in the water and life rafts as part of the scenario.
“These planned exercises enable Police and partner agencies to test our response and systems should an emergency ever arise.
“Normal marine traffic should proceed with caution and follow any instructions from authorities.
“This exercise is part of our ongoing commitment to public safety and ensures that emergency services are well-prepared for real-life incidents.”
