Great Lakes Oil Spill Response Capabilities Evaluation

17 Apr 2024

In this report, authors provide an assessment of the ability of government agencies and the private sector on both sides of the U.S.-Canadian border to collectively respond to Great Lakes oil spill scenarios. They assess the scope of current oil spill risks in the region; the roles, capabilities, and capacities of oil-spill response partners; and any gaps and potential mitigation strategies around oil-spill response in fresh water and ice.
