Abstract
ABSTRACT The Alaska Clean Seas organization's spill countermeasures research program continues, with recently completed or ongoing projects addressing spill response chemicals, shoreline habitat protection, bubble barriers, water jet barriers, in situ combustion equipment, and under-ice oil detection. Lack of petroleum exploration activity in the Bering Sea has brought about a decision to place response equipment dedicated for that area in long-term storage. Training schedules have also been adjusted because of reduced activity, but program quality is being maintained. Participating companies continue to enjoy an excellent spill safety record in Alaska, and Alaska Clean Seas has not been required to take part in any actual spill cleanup operations.
