It was then determined that the ship that sank almost 50 years prior, was the source of a devastating oil leak, endangering the seabird population. In light of this revelation, California and federal trustees have been awarded $16.9 million to help restore California’s seabird populations.

Back in 1953 the proper tools to attend to a spill of this magnitude didn’t exist. Fast forward 47 years later and the spill response resources are available.
This begs the question, “How would you handle an oil spill in your own facility?”
