Have elapsed since two and a half years, and has yet to be realized through the adoption of the relevant order or decree of the Ministry of Interior Government of Andalusia, that the method is approved Arcón in Andalusia as the official system for training of rescue dog units, as an important preventive measure, regulatory, and operational, and approved unanimously by PNL by the will of Parliament of Andalusia, competent legal circumstance for the Ministry of Interior, which can not continue to delay this formal approval, but you should assume it as justified and urgent, because they continue to delay the deadline, involves the parallel delay of necessary preventive actions, training, supervision, retraining ... in an official capacity and regional levels, using the method of Ukraine Chest, only system that has proved highly effective at the international level: Not yet having been put into effect and development, officially, still, the essential agenda Ukraine (detail submitted to the Government of Andalusia, under official registration by the relevant technical, officially recognized level nationally and internationally, and that includes for example the necessary training programs and regulations). Has not yet begun to develop a regular program on the essential and necessary rigorous supervision and retraining technical officer, regional, all of Andalusia existing canine teams, as contemplated by the Ukrainian project. You can not start a newspaper regional program officer for specialized training for the proper and complete increase in units formed and training of new dog units, where it is still an urgent need to (test patent claims are occurring at certain points of the Autonomous Region with the Andalusian result of entombment people). Pointing out further that this would involve a zero cost to the Government of Andalusia, reporting that officers Method Instructors Chest, coordinated by Jaime Parejo, have met at the School of Public Security of Andalusia, with the current Coordinator of Education and Fire Policemen, and have expressed, as did the former coordinator, who renounce documented the perception of economic rewards as teachers and the masses of rubble needed to practice, and there, which does not involve any financial cost to the institution. The method Chest has been set up by Jaime Parejo, as cash-saving tool for humanity, and as a means to profit at all. Consequently can be ensured at all yet, in most cases, an adequate operational level and results of such specialized equipment, in case of accidents in order to search and locate people buried alive. Below are five sources of fundamental reasons, they support and soundness and argue with complete in all respects, the high level of importance, operational necessity and urgency of a public nature, inherent to Mrs. Counselor of the Interior approved when deemed appropriate, as soon as possible, by order or decree, THE METHOD Arcon AS OFFICIAL IN THE SYSTEM FOR ANDALUSIA RESCUE dog units, and approval by the Parliament of Andalusia through NLP: 1) Specific Claims Method and origin of the Chest in the autonomous community of Andalusia In October 1994, after twelve years of intense and arduous work of scientific research and development, Jaime Parejo, completes the creation of a method for the formation and involvement of canine rescue teams in catastrophes, for the detection and rescue of survivors buried in landslides from any cause (earthquakes, explosions, landslides, hurricanes, avalanches, tornadoes ...), which manages to be particularly effective both in adverse external and search operations in confined spaces (with zero visibility and minimum dimensions for displacement). It was in the Andalusian capital, Seville, where it believes its system completed in October 1994, when it is established and verified solidly, the high level of effectiveness of the method Chest (over-the-art technology, used, as was the case such as geophone Detectors), even in the face of unfavorable conditions particularly in confined spaces, with his exemplary canine Chest, in a first diploma course on techniques for rescue and disaster rescue, organized by the School of Public Security of Andalusia, where the dog , In the presence of numerous Fire Granada, Almeria and Seville, conducted various search operations, under the pressure of adverse factors of extreme intensity and different nature (odoriferous, spatial, visual, auditory, ...) maintain excellent levels of autonomy, motivation and concentration associated with excellent location and time signposting patterns. Since 1999 Dog Rescue Corps Firefighters found several people buried alive under extreme difficulty perceptive, in various types of claims, observing a more efficient cabinet on the other existing systems (with living beings or electronic). Among the various types of latent risks that affect us by the Andalusians claims involving entombment of people, can be cited as examples of some recent cases: The day on February 12, 2007, a quake of magnitude 6.3 on the Richter Scale that could have caused damage similar to the earthquake in Al Hoceima (Morocco) in 2004, which caused 628 deaths, if its epicenter, southeast of Cabo San Vicente, had been on the ground and not at sea, according to the Andalusian Institute of Geophysics (IAG). In the cities of Cadiz, Seville and Huelva were evicted numerous headquarters, housing ... but fortunately, in this case, only produced cracks in some buildings. The day June 30, 2007, an earthquake of intensity 4.4 on the Richter scale, occurred at 5:53 pm, with epicenter in Moron de la Frontera (Sevilla), feeling in Cadiz, Huelva, Seville and Malaga , Which also caused the evacuation of several buildings and caused multiple calls to 112. The day on July 5, 2007, in Carboneras (Almería) fell down a coal chute, about a group of 8 employees, with a tragic balance of 4 workers killed and 4 injured. Generally, in any kind of sinking or sliding for whatever reason there is the possibility of people still buried alive, which urgently require a proven means of detection and quick cash (Method Chest) to carry out their rescue and rescue in time, before the occurrence of the death from various causes clinics. The entire rescue dog units in the Autonomous Community of Andalusia (UCR firemen from the City of Malaga, UCR Consortium Fire Huelva, UCR firemen from the City of Huelva, UCR Consortium Fire Cadiz , UCR firemen from the City of Granada, UCR firemen from the City of Cordoba, UCR Consortium Fire Cordoba and the UCR firemen from the City of Seville) have been formally trained, tested and certified with the training program and intervention Method Chest, with positive results officially proven highly regulated courses and providing the relevant official at the Training Section of the Fire and Rescue for H. Seville City Council and also by Centers officially concluded with the School of Public Security of Andalusia, such as the ESPAM, School of Public Security of the City Council of Malaga or the School of Education Consortium for Fire Cadiz. There are currently a total of seven instructors, officially certified Canine Rescue in Disasters, Method Chest, in the autonomous community of Andalusia. In Andalusia, cities such as Almeria and Jaen are still without a single canine rescue team (in capital or province) to intervene in case of loss of collapse / s for any cause which can produce the entombment of people, which will require the fastest possible time to detect the location of possible survivors buried and able to carry out an effective rescue them. Should be considered that every year there are buildings of landslides at various points of the Andalusian, usually by structural failure or explosion, but also must be borne in mind the latent risk of suffering a moment at some degree of intensity in any of the destructive Frequent earthquakes that affect so unexpected and inevitable in the territory of the region, as has happened for example in the year 1884, in Arenas del Rey, Granada province of an earthquake claimed more than a thousand victims, leading to the collapse of About four thousand houses involving the entombment of many people and would have required urgent intervention as the first rescue and salvage, detection and half by localization proven effective, if not, obviously, and would imply, by contrast, death of them, either for clinical reasons based on elapsed time or accidentally by a damaging debris indiscriminate. Spain is close to the boundary of the tectonic plates of Eurasia and Africa, where the landslide in both directions, the leading cause of the earthquakes that occur where Andalusia located in the south is among the areas of greatest risk factor, its eight provinces to be affected by the risk of earthquake intensity equal to or above the grade VII (MSK). 2) The legislative Andalusia During the plenary session of the Parliament of Andalusia held the day Oct. 24, 2002, date for debate and adoption of the Law on Emergency Management in Andalusia, Messrs.. Spokesmen for the Socialist parliamentary groups and Andalusia, both spoke in favor of the consolidation officer of the Method Chest, in Andalusia, based on their proven effectiveness in the rescue. They further emphasized the fact added, if a system set up by an Andalusian, Jaime Parejo Garcia, in Andalusia, who also produced the project technically Ukraine Chest linked to the method, in 1997 for the Directorate-General for Political Affairs of Andalusia, formally processed through the Technical Management Consortium Provincial Fire and Rescue HE. Diputación Provincial de Huelva. The Parliament of Andalusia, with the important goal of addressing public officially, based on the most efficient officially established, future disasters and potential magnitude of any natural or anthropic, involving the entombment of people, approved in the House of the Parliament of the said Andalusia, Article 37 of the Law on Emergency Management in Andalusia, the creation of Ukraine, and then on Feb. 2, 2006 was also unanimously approved Proposition no parliamentary bill on approval of the method for the formation Chest Canine Rescue Unit BOPA 378, February 15, 2006 (7 - 05/PNLC - 000294), whose literal text adopted is as follows: The Parliament of Andalusia Council urges the Government to proceed within a period not exceeding two months, the approval and Chest official recognition of the Method for the formation of the Rescue Dog Unit of Andalusia (Ukraine) and all units operating in Spain. To promote knowledge of the Method Chest in all instances related to the rescue in disasters both domestic and international, and especially within the programs of cooperation to establish Andalusia. The day November 15, 2006, the Hon. Town Hall of Seville, capital of Andalusia, approved by Resolution No. 12,561 that the method is Arcón the formal system of education and intervention for canine rescue teams. 3) The legislative outside the Andalusian Autonomous Community Chest The Method, after delivering the relevant official proposals to the respective Government Institutions by Corps Commanders General of Police, Chief Fire Corps, Political ... Delegates, based on the considerable backing operational implies its level of proven effectiveness in detecting and rescuing people buried, among other things, has been chosen and adopted as the official system for a variety of governmental institutions: Approved Method Arcón as the official system by Ministerial Agreement No: 009, 27 January 2004 Ministry of Government of Ecuador.

Huber next to one of his most important advisers, Roger Pelegreen, said Jaime Parejo directly to their high interest in training with Method Chest. Excerpt from report by Captain Patrick Galiano Borja, Expert on Conduct of Dogs Search of Rescue and Intervention Group of the National Police of Ecuador. Instructor Arcón Method: Being a practical and scientific results are easily measurable and verifiable so that our unit has applied the techniques of Method Arcón to all areas of detection, specifically the detection of explosives, drugs and even trafficking of shark fin, sea cucumber and animal life, within which we are the only country in the world who has trained dogs for this purpose, getting excellent results using real operational on which it has succeeded in seizing traffic of explosives and smuggling of animal species in the east of our country and the Galapagos Islands respectively. One speaks of the existence of a scientific method of training when this is not based simply on experience (empirical), or in the observation area, but in the handling of a process by which their assumptions are fully verifiable, and its possible implementation and the resulting measurement of results. Based on the work done with our canine teams can certify the effectiveness and efficiency gained in the real work whose results are publicly known in our country. May I conclude this report as expressing our opinion, that when speaking of the Method Chest, we are talking about a system for technical and scientific training and involvement of canine teams not only for disasters but also in all areas of detection, to be tabled around the world, since for them it is necessary to have the greatest possible effectiveness and efficiency, constituting themselves as an extraordinary tool to improve levels of autonomy, motivation and concentration are essential and indispensable for any kind of work with dogs for detection Fragment Report by the Mayor Luis Alberto Marín Guerrero, an expert in Dogs of Conduct Search of the Colombian National Police, Canine Instructor Guides at the National School of Carabineros and Principal Investigator of the Project "Dogs of Peace" for Humanitarian Demining, with the Ministry of National Defense of Colombia. Method instructor Chest. : It is a rapid and effective solution for dog units that we are committed to intervene to save lives in disasters that often occur in our countries. Not only will save lives in disasters, are also saved by detecting drugs and explosives, as has happened with seizures made by our canine who have been trained and some potentialize under the methodology in question. The care of our planet is a global commitment and we know the excellent results achieved by the National Police of Ecuador in their work to neutralize the trafficking of shark fins and sea cucumber, using dogs trained with the Chest. Currently, the Colombian National Police is developing the Research Project "Dogs of Peace" to help in tasks for Humanitarian Demining and we have made excellent progress through the application of the Method Chest, and we hope to show these results to the International Center for Humanitarian Demining (GICHD), so it is a tool or an option for professionals involved in freeing humanity from the threat that landmines represent. The Method Chest has finished with borders and has joined many countries, institutions and individuals dedicated to saving lives. Personally I think it's half of brotherhood and peace for mankind. http://www.rescatecanino.com
