Time (hours) | Boom/Assessment | Minimum Oil Recovery Rate % of WCS volume per 24 hours | Minimum Storage |
2 | A safety assessment of the spill by trained crew and appropriate air monitoring, with 1,000 feet of boom could have arrived | ||
4 | At least an additional 200 feet of boom and temporary storage of at least 196 barrels with the ability to collect, contain, and separate collected oil from water could have arrived. The additional boom should be capable of encountering oil at advancing speeds of at least 2 knots in waves. This boom shall be of a type appropriate for the operating environment | ||
6 | Additional 10,000 feet of boom to be used for containment, recovery or protection could have arrived | Capacity to recover the lesser of 10% of worst case spill volume or 12,500 barrels within 24-hour period could have arrived | 2 times the EDRC |
12 | Additional 20,000 feet of boom to be used for containment, recovery or protection could have arrived | Capacity to recover the lesser of 15% of worst case spill volume or 36,000 barrels within 24-hour period could have arrived | 2 times the EDRC |
24 | Additional 20,000 feet of boom to be used for containment, recovery or protection could have arrived | Capacity to recover the lesser of 20% of worst case spill volume or 48,000 barrels within 24-hour period could have arrived | 3 times the EDRC |
48 | More boom as necessary for containment, recovery or protection | Capacity to recover the lesser of 25% of worst case spill volume or 60,000 barrels within 24-hour period could have arrived | More as necessary to not slow the response |
