| Abstract |
The purpose of this review was to determine what actions the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) took to communicate oil spill risk to communities near the Gulf of Mexico and Michigan's Kalamazoo River. When a major oil spill occurs in the United States, coordinated teams of local, state, and national personnel are called upon to help contain the spill, clean it up, and ensure that damage to human health and the environment is minimized. In the United States, the system for organizing responses to major oil spills is called the National Response System. There are three components of the National Response System: (1) on-scene coordinators (OSCs), (2) the national response team (NRT), and (3) regional response teams (RRTs). |
