The full extent of damage depend greatly on the quick and rational decision making by the incident commander soon after the disaster. The decision that everybody should wait by the captain, not to enter into the ship by the first dispatched incident commander, broadcasting failure have brought about a huge loss of life at Sewol cruise ship incident. Thus this study reviews the training and education system supporting the rational crisis decision making performed by the incident commander to cut off the expansion of disaster which is caused by the failure of the incident situation awareness and the decision making described above.

In this study, I suggested 'Mission command' as the on-scene commander's leadership intended to save people's lives quickly and safely when occured marine accident. First, I considered the concepts and limitations, efforts to introduce and settle the mission command, discussed why the introduction of mission command for Korea Coast Guard, the scope and specific way when applied. Korea Coast Guard must apply the Mission command as the on-scene commander's leadership to achieve efficient rescue work at the scene of an accident, even for incidents that can-not be foreseen. However, mission command cannot be established overnight: long-term, systematic efforts to stably develop mission command at the organizational level are required. We will strive to apply mission command across all aspects of the system, including education, training, personnel, and procedures, equipping each component with the basic requirements for mission command.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the problems and causes of OSC system of the KCG. In the disaster of sea, the possibility that could expect a reasonable decision making is low. The study has carried out for the different point of view of the problems. The problems have been revealed through the theory and analysis of structural and non-structural aspects for the OSC system, such as inefficient organization system, failure of reasonable decision making, lack of communication with the field. The conclusions of the study have been proposed such as an advanced On-Scene Command system, efficient organization, the training of professional staff, the creating of open organizational culture.

The sinking of the M/V SEWOL in April 2014 was not a mere marine accident, but a marine catastrophe. This grim case developed into a social tragedy that impinged the national sentiment and communal integrity. It is imperative that thorough provisions and measures be outlined at the national level with regard to massive marine accidents, oil pollution, and natural disasters that might critically affect government affairs. Pivoting on "The Black Swan Theory," a concept of improperly rationalizing a national crisis based on uncertainties, this research assesses a variety of response strategies that minimize the national economic and social damage caused by a large-scale marine disaster. Along with the effort of minimizing any potential defects in each protective barrier, the "Black Swan Detection System of the Marine Disaster" needs to be incorporated to prevent cases wherein such defects lead to an actual crisis. Maritime safety must be systematically unified under a supervisory organization, and a structure for maritime crisis on-scene command and cooperation must likewise be established in order that every force on the scene of a marine disaster may act effectively and consistently under the direction of an on-scene commander.

In this paper, the author carried out the study to develop oil spill response training courses for competent responders examining IMO guidelines and response training courses of developed maritime countries as well as Korea. According to a result of study, fundamental training courses are to be established on the basis of IMO guideline, and also to prepare pre-arranged brief course like Basics of Spill Response for beginner. The courses should be step-by-step related with mutual continuous contents, and more times are given to on-site training for basic course and to classroom lecture with desk-top exercise for advanced course. Besides, SCAT shall be added to shoreline cleanup course, finally it is advisable that total 9 types of courses are established with additional refresh course.

Even well trained personnel may fall victim to panic, and a wrong assessment of the situation can turn a small accident into a huge disaster. At the disaster site, the event is commonly broadcasted in real time and is unfiltered. Thus, the commander of the site must be able to accurately assess the scene while not missing out on key considerations. Despite the necessity of good situational assessment, there is barely any research on this topic. This study utilizes METT-TC(Mission, Enemy, Troops, Terrain and weather, Time available, and Civil considerations) which is used by militaries to assess combat situations, and proposes MORT-TAC(Mission, Object, Resources available, Terrain and weather, Time available, Ability, and Civil considerations) as factors to consider in effectively controlling the disaster site. The standard model is used for assessing disaster scenes by applying the Delphi analytical method on each sub-factor of MORT-TAC.

On-Scene Commander's quickly discernment is very important in Catastrophic Oil Spill. The Korea carring out multiagency to catastrophic oil spill. but It cannot communication to other agency and happened to operation empty and duplications. The United State enforced Incident Command System/Unified Command (ICS/US) on National Incident Management System in 2008. The Korea Government must be preparation Unified Command System include Non-Government and an oil refining company.

In this study I investigated that fire fighters utilize fire facilities properly or not, and found problems and solutions with interview and questionnaire. Fire fighters tend to utilize portable instruments. 62% of fire fighters have used fire facilities which is installed in building. The most useful facility is indoor fire hydrant, 42% of fire fighters have used that. The primary reason to avoid to use facility is that they think the facilities are not good at quick response. Almost fire fighters want improvement to enhance utilizing fire facilities. Finally in the fire scene, commander's initiative, fire fighter's ability, easiness of utilizing fire facilities, and fire fighter's creditibility about fire facilities are related to the degree of utilizing fire facilities.
