The Maritime Incident Response Group.

To address the issue of further improving maritime resilience and delivering a more formal approach to dealing with incidents of fire, chemical release and industrial accidents on vessels/structures 'at sea', the United Kingdom’s Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) has entered into partnership with 15 coastal Fire & Rescue Services around the UK.

In January 2003 the MCA launched the ‘Sea of Change Project’. This project culminated in the formation of the UK Maritime Incident Response Group (MIRG) that actively contributes to maritime & civil resilience.

The Maritime Incident Response Group was formally 'launched' by the Secretary of State for Transport at Dover on 20th April 2006 and the ‘Sea of Change Project’ was completed on the 31st March.
