ACACIA MADEN \u0130\u015eLETMELER\u0130 A.\u015e. \u2013 EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Acacia Maden \u0130\u015fletmeleri A.\u015e. Emergency Response Team consists of an expert team with accurate, fast, safe, and professional competencies to respond to all kinds of emergency situations that may occur in mining sites.<\/p>\n\n

Established in 2023 with 14 members, our team reached a competent structure of 28 people in line with corporate goals on August 13, 2024, by obtaining Turkey’s first Urban Search and Rescue Accreditation in the field of mining.<\/p>\n\n

The ADME Team receives comprehensive periodic training in modules such as hazardous materials response, fire response, urban search and rescue (Earthquake), first aid, team competency, and vehicle accident response, and tests itself through continuous drills. In addition, it improves its experience day by day by actively participating in the 2025 Tosya Regional Earthquake Drill and the 2026 Kastamonu Landslide Drill conducted under the coordination of AFAD.<\/p>\n\n

Our field experience is not limited to training and drills, as we successfully fulfill all tasks assigned during critical disaster periods needed by our country. We undertook significant responsibilities in the field with response and support activities during the search and rescue and emergency response efforts following the February 6 earthquake disaster, in 5 different forest fires that occurred in the Kastamonu region, and in 2 different village house fires in nearby settlements.<\/p>\n\n

Committed to continuous improvement, we continue our investments in training, drills, and equipment, and maintain our efforts toward competent and accurate interventions for all tasks.<\/p>\n\n

As the Acacia ADME Team<\/strong>, we are ready, as always, to reflect this accumulated experience onto the field, come together with other teams once again, and most importantly, gain new experiences in the 4th Mine Rescue Competition, where we are taking part for the second time as a participating member.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

ET\u0130 KROM A.\u015e. \u2013 MINE SEARCH AND RESCUE (MAKUT) TEAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The ET\u0130 KROM A.\u015e. Mine Search and Rescue (MAKUT) Team was established in 2020 and continues its activities today as a strong team with 111 expert and volunteer staff, providing support for search and rescue operations not only for its own operations but also for other mining enterprises and relevant institutions in the region when needed.<\/p>\n\n

Since its inception, the team has continuously developed its response capacity for various scenarios, primarily mining accidents, cave-ins, natural disasters, and fires. In this context, the team’s inventory includes a surface search-and-rescue and firefighting vehicle, 18 BG4+ closed-circuit breathing apparatuses, 2 Carvent positive-pressure breathing sets, 2 single-wheel stretchers specially designed for underground mines, and a mobile MAKUT support vehicle. The teams’ knowledge, skills, and response capabilities are continuously improved through training, practical applications, and regular drills provided by expert trainers within TTK and the company.<\/p>\n\n

The field experience possessed by our MAKUT Team has also been demonstrated by the missions it undertook in major incidents occurring in our country. It actively took part in a 32-day search-and-rescue operation during the flood disaster experienced within the scope of the HEPP Project in Erzurum \u0130spir, with a team of 132 people in the operations carried out in Elaz\u0131\u011f, Malatya, Ad\u0131yaman, Kahramanmara\u015f, and Hatay following the February 6 earthquakes, and in an 8-day field assignment following the landslide in Erzincan \u0130li\u00e7. Furthermore, the rescue of 4 employees as a result of an approximately 6-hour operation during the intervention into a cave-in that occurred at another mining enterprise in our region on February 26, 2024, became one of the important indicators of our team’s effective response capacity.<\/p>\n\n

The ET\u0130 KROM A.\u015e. MAKUT Team holds an important place in the region in terms of developing corporate capacity, national accreditation, regional cooperation, and effective intervention in real incidents. Participation in the AFAD Mid-Level Urban Search and Rescue Accreditation Exam was achieved with 58 team members, and the knowledge, skills, and technical proficiencies of our team members were evaluated at the national level. As a result of this process, the AFAD Mid-Level Urban Search and Rescue Accreditation was presented to the ET\u0130 KROM A.\u015e. Mine Search and Rescue Team on February 24, 2025. This success demonstrates not only ET\u0130 KROM A.\u015e.’s capacity in the field of mine search and rescue but also its level of institutional preparedness for various disaster and emergency scenarios. The ET\u0130 KROM A.\u015e. MAKUT Team represents an important capacity on a regional scale, being one of the first private sector teams in Turkey to hold mid-level urban search and rescue accreditation and the only team in the Eastern Anatolia-Southeast Anatolia region.<\/p>\n\n

Another important best practice of our team has been the pooling of rescue capacity among mining enterprises and the strengthening of regional solidarity. Within the scope of rescue protocols, rescue training sessions were organized for employees of various mining enterprises with TTK support, and the training organization for a total of 135 employees was completed. Thus, a contribution was made to increasing the level of preparedness for emergencies not only for ET\u0130 KROM A.\u015e. employees but also for different mining enterprises in the region.<\/p>\n\n

The ET\u0130 KROM A.\u015e. MAKUT Team contributes to the development of the search and rescue culture in the mining sector with its 111-person staff, advanced technical equipment infrastructure, national accreditation, real-incident experience, regional collaborations, and continuous training approach. The primary goal of our activities carried out in 2025 is not only to increase our intervention capacity, but to make the mindset of “being prepared before an event occurs, performing the right intervention at the time of the event, and transferring the experience gained after the event to the future” an institutional culture. As the ET\u0130 KROM A.\u015e. MAKUT Team, we continue our work with determination with the goal of being a search and rescue team that places human life at the center, continuously develops, learns, and assumes responsibility on a regional scale.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
