3.4 Develop and implement a training program for national and regional entities, including inspection, pilotage, and oceanography, related to navigational safety and spills, focusing on gaps identified including in the areas of pilotage, Port Wardens, assessment of oceanographic current dynamics, sediment transport, and bathymetry.

 Develop technical capacity and obtain equipment for oil and chemical spill trajectory analysis and response, including training and education, working closely with other regional modeling projects such as the MBRS.

Develop training for processing of oceanographic data, and data exchange compatible with the project’s data and information management system.

Develop methodologies and build capacity for oil and chemical spill damage assessments and the determination of environmental restoration costs.
