CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROTECTION AND EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS In this section: EP Digest Archive EP Digest - Back Issues Feature Article April - June 1999 National contingency planning for Y2K Brad Mann In terms of complexity, scope and potential impact on virtually every aspect of Canadian society, the challenge facing the Year 2000 National Contingency Planning Group (NCPG) is unprecedented. Operating under the auspices of the Department of National Defence, the NCPG is responsible for developing national-level Y2K contingency plans relating to Canada's critical infrastructure — electricity, hydro, gas and oil, transportation, security, essential services such as 911, ambulance, health care, financial institutions, the food industry and territorial integrity. Three critical phases As the NCPG Federal Coordinator, Paul Thibault readily admits that his organization has taken on a task for which there is no template or existing model. "What we have been focusing on, in the first instance, are three critical phases of activity, starting with the development of a national infrastructure risk assessment," states Mr. Thibault. In order to gain what Mr. Thibault terms the "first real snap shot" regarding Canada's national infrastructure, the NCPG had a questionnaire prepared using Gartner Group methodology, to ensure that the approach being used was both recognized and consistent. He notes that the questionnaire addresses two functions. "It looks at the criticality of the infrastructure as well as the probability of compliance, failure or something happening. Our next step is then to farm out this questionnaire — a process that is really complex and complicated because, to get the information you need, you have to deal not only with the federal government but provincial governments, municipalities, industries and so forth. Everybody has a piece of the pie and everybody is cooperating in providing this information," he adds.

The Senate last week took its first close look at how the expertise and systems being developed to deal with the Year 2000 problem can be used now and in the future against intentional attacks on the nation's infrastructure. Testifying before the Senate Special Committee on the Year 2000 Technology Problem, federal experts said experience gained by a special coordination center created to gather and share information on problems caused by the Year 2000 date change could be used to confront infrastructure protection issues. However, the center itself may not be needed beyond next March. "Clearly, there will be much of value that will last beyond the [Year 2000 Information Coordination Center]," said John Koskinen, chairman of the President's Council on Year 2000 Conversion. "This is in effect our first real-time test...and ultimately, it is a great way for all of us to learn from this experience."

Post: Posted by Carolyn on 3/06/02 I teach children who are learning disabled in grades 5-8. I have one student who seems not to possess any common sense. As the year 2000 was approaching, and there was much ado about the problems that could be caused with the onset of Y2K, Dara came to me with a completely sincere question. She wanted to know if there had been a year 1000. When I responded that there had been, she then asked "well, why did they not figure out the computer problems then?"

Y2K Preparedness for Literacy Programs The Y2K Challenge. The Y2K Disaster. Y2K! We've all heard about it many times by now. But just what is Y2K? Will it affect us and our students? What, if anything, can we do about it? On April 22, 1999, the LAC hosted a workshop, Y2K Preparedness for Literacy Programs, addressing these questions and more. Aaron Levine, Manager of Management Information Systems for the Ford Foundation, and I led the session. systems. Finally, Y2K manifests itself in hardware chips. Chips are usually small microcircuits that are part of larger systems. Some of these chips, such as the ROM Bios chips, have date coding. ROM Bios chips enable a computer to "boot up" when you turn it on. Usually when we talk about making a computer Y2K compliant, we are talking about this ROM Bios chip. This is done by either replacing the chip completely, upgrading the coding on that chip, or installing a memory-resident program on the computer, called a TSR. The newest systems have correct coding in the ROM Bios chips. The older the system, the more suspect the ROM Bios chip. In all cases—new or old—the system should be checked by an experienced technician.
