OR&R Participates in National Spill Response Meeting in Atlanta

The National Response Team (NRT) and Regional Response Team (RRT) chairs and coordinators from around the country met in Atlanta March 18-19, 2014, to discuss issues related to oil and chemical spill prevention, preparedness and response. The NRT is comprised of 15 federal agencies (https://nrt.org/).

NOAA provided speakers and facilitators for sessions related to regulatory consultations, unconventional oil risks (oil sands and Bakken crude) and new technologies. The primary goal of this annual gathering is to identify the national priorities for NRT focus and serve as a forum for RRTs to share ongoing efforts, challenges and accomplishments.
