Time (hours) | Boom/Assessment | Minimum Oil Recovery Rate % of WCS volume per 24 hours | Minimum Storage in Barrels |
1 | A safety assessment of the spill by trained crew and appropriate air monitoring could have arrived | ||
2 | 2,000 feet of boom available at the spill source or downstream of the source could have arrived Alternatively, resources identified as a pipeline control point to keep oil from entering surface waters or penetrating into the ground could have arrived | ||
6 | Additional 5,000 feet of boom available for containment, recovery or protection could have arrived Alternatively, additional resources identified as a pipeline control point to keep oil from entering surface waters or penetrating into the ground could have arrived | Capacity to recover the lesser of 10% of worst case spill volume or 8,000 barrels within 24-hour period could have arrived | 1 times the EDRC |
12 | Additional 20,000 feet of boom to be used for containment, protection or recovery 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 | 1 times the EDRC |
24 | More boom as necessary for containment, recovery or protection | Capacity to recover the lesser of 20% of worst case spill volume or 48,000 barrels within 24-hour period could have arrived | 2 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 |
