Digital Area Contingency Plan/Geographic Response Plan
Oil Spill Response
These data were created as a part of the creation of Geographic Response Plan maps for Digital Area Contingency Plans for Oil and Hazardous Material Spills to geographicly identify and outline areas sensitiveto spilled oil and depict suggested strategies to protect those resources.
Digital Area Contingency Plans for Oil and Hazardous Material Spill Response
<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><P><SPAN>These data represent the center points of Tidally Influenced Inlets throughout the Southeast United States and US Caribbean and were created as a place to collect and spatially collate data about the circulation dynamics of these inlets for use in oil spill response and response planning as part of both the Florida Marine Spill Analysis System (FMSAS) and USCG Digital Area Contingency Plans (ACPs) - Geographic Response Plans (GRPs).</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV>
These data are part of a larger work termed Digital Area Contingency Plans (ACP) and Geographic Response Plans (GRPs) that consist of many layers of data used to produce maps for the planning purposes of preparing for oil spill response in a given region. Shown on these maps are sites identified as particularly sensitive to spilled oil, booming strategies to protect them, staging areas to deploy equipment and personel, areas to collect spilled oil, geographic features and names, socio-economic features and names, and other considerations neccesary in planning to respond to oil spilled on water in a given area.
