杰克兔计划

In April, 2010, The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) collaborated with the Chemical Security Analysis Center (CSAC) and sponsored a series of 1 & 2 ton atmospheric releases of Toxic Inhalation Hazard (TIH) materials, specifically Chlorine and Ammonia in the Utah desert at Dugway Proving Ground. These tests were conducted in order to determine the Nation's vulnerability to TIH's in transport near sensitive populations and areas.

In both 2015 and 2016, Subject Matter Experts (SME) in hazardous materials emergency response designed and conducted experiments at Dugway during the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) research on catastrophic releases of chlorine named the “杰克兔 Program”. 紧急 Response SME’s worked collaboratively with project scientists to assure meaningful outcomes during releases of 7 to 20 tons of chlorine. The overall objective for the SME’s was to answer questions for the emergency planning and response community regarding planning for, tactical and operational considerations of, and public protection actions during a catastrophic chlorine release or a release of any other TIH material in any jurisdiction.

In August of 2017 key contributors to the 杰克兔 (JR) Project, environmental systems researchers, plume modelers, Hazmat SME’s, and atmospheric scientists were invited to 犹他谷大学 (UVU) to formulate conclusions based on the JR data. The Final Report - The 杰克兔1I Project’s Impacts on 紧急 Responders includes the outcomes that should be used for training and educating the nation’s emergency responders and planners.

In the coming years 2022 – 2025, the UVU Team of SME’s will again be involved in the 杰克兔III计划. JR III will focus on planning, protection, and response to large scale releases of Ammonia, similar to the earlier experiments involving Chlorine. We look forward to providing the nation’s emergency preparedness community with important outcomes from the program.
