EPA Webinars: Spill Countermeasures for Tribal Partners

Description

Overview of Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasure Webinar for Tribal Partners

This one and half hour, EPA-hosted session will provide a basic overview of the Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasure oil spill prevention program, regulatory requirements, program implementation, and federal oil spill reporting requirements. The session will also include a question-and-answer segment where participants can interact with the SPCC national program manager. The session is designed for those who want to learn “just the basics” of the SPCC rule and EPA Oil Program.  Managers, policymakers, facility operators, and other related tribal stakeholders may find this short and basic overview course useful. Participants attending the course who want more information should consider attending the four-hour Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasure 101 Webinar for Tribal Partners.
