A list of the participants to a "rampoefening":
het provinciaal coördinatiecentrum, twee burgemeesters, de inspecteur van het ministerie van Volkshuisvesting Ruimtelijke Ordening en Milieu, een vertegenwoordiger van drinkwaterbedrijf Evides, de provinciale calamiteitenkamer Milieu en de provincie Oost-Vlaanderen (België).
There is no reference to a particular province in the Netherlands.
I am confused by this "Milieu".

environment emergency response centre
'Milieu', environmental as opposed to human disasters. Known as EEC. Here therefore: provincial EEC.

| Well, doesn't "calamiteit" indicate that it is a natural disaster? Why "Milieu" then? |

I noted that Unesco use an extended version of the answer I gave, but then they probably have a few additional functions. They use the name Centre for Disaster Management and Environment Protection.

Note from asker:
| What exactly are the functions of a calamiteinkamer (-kamer, not centrum) in the Netherlands? The context shows that it is different from a coordination centre, because there are already provincial coordination centres. |
