Oil spills: A major marine ecosystem threat - National Oceanic and . . . Thousands of oil and chemical spills occur each year in the nation’s coastal waters They range from small ship collisions to recreational boating fuel mishaps to massive spill events like the 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill The release of oil and chemicals into our coastal waterways is a major problem Spills can kill wild
The Exxon Valdez, 25 Years Later - National Oceanic and Atmospheric . . . Prior to the Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the Exxon Valdez was the largest spill to ever occur in U S coastal waters In this episode, we talk with NOAA marine biologist Gary Shigenaka to find out how marine life in Prince William Sound, Alaska, is faring today We also look at lessons we might learn from this environmental disaster in light of growing oil exploration and
Oil in the Ocean | Ocean Today - National Oceanic and Atmospheric . . .

History of oil spill response at NOAA - National Oceanic and . . . As a result of the disaster, NOAA put additional resources towards spill response, including creating a hazardous material response division to provide scientific expertise during a spill, placing scientific support coordinators around the country, and developing methods to assess and model oil trajectories Today, nearly 50 years later, NOAA’s role in oil spill response has evolved, shaped
Lessons from Valdez: 25 Years Later | Ocean Today On March 24, 1989, the Exxon Valdez grounded on Bligh Reef in Prince William Sound, rupturing the hull and spilling oil into the pristine waters of Alaska In all, nearly 11 million gallons of crude oil devastated this remote and biologically productive body of water Hundreds of thousands of birds, mammals, and other marine organisms were killed or injured
6 polluted waterways slated for restoration - National Oceanic and . . . Good news for a new year! In 2022, NOAA helped to recover over $114 million from polluters to restore six waterways following oil spill and industrial pollution incidents NOAA and partners worked to assess the impacts of these incidents and reach legal settlements with those responsible to fund restoration In the past 30 years, NOAA
