Oil and Hazardous Materials Spill Response Technology Development, Strategic Plan

Abstract

A strategic plan to guide the investment of R&D funds for spill response has been developed. The plan is based on a review of past studies and analysis as well as a systems analysis of the current spill response situation. Areas for future efforts are prioritized based on U.S. Coast Guard and international investment considerations and risks and options for various investment amounts are provided. The plan also recommends that a similar analysis of prevention efforts should be carried out in the future.
