  2. Deepwater Horizon Response MSRC was single largest oil spill response contractor MSRC provided services including: Mechanical recovery Dispersant Services In situ burn Emergency Communications Services General Contractor for hiring of subcontractors performing other response services MSRC was not involved in: Drilling activities Subsea Well Control Efforts Drafting of MMS Response Plan or Spill Management

  4. MSRC Dispersant Services • King Air 90 based at Stennis Airfield in Mississippi was immediately activated • C-130 based in Coolidge, Arizona was immediately activated and relocated to Stennis Airfield • MSRC coordinated all dispersant logistic services for Stennis based aircraft including: • 4 C-130s – CCA/OSR/MSRC • 4 Air Force C-130s • 801,000 gallons of dispersant sprayed from Stennis based aircraft

  10. Challenges to Mechanical RecoveryNearshore • Weathering of oil • Dispersant usage • Encounter rate very low – “Streamers” • Debris • Different skimmers would work on different days in the same geographic location.
