    Title
    Posted
    The U.S. Coast Guard's Oil Spill Removal Organization (OSRO) Classification Program guidelines, updated in December 2021, outline the requirements for OSROs to be classified and listed in oil spill response plans. The program, administered by the National Strike Force Coordination Center (NSFCC), ensures OSROs have adequate personnel and equipment to respond to oil spills. Key revisions include clarified temporary storage capacity calculations and nonfloating oil classification requirements. OSROs voluntarily apply for classification, which involves a comprehensive application process, including data entry into the Response Resource Inventory (RRI) and Preparedness Assessment Visits (PAVs) to verify resources and compliance. The guidelines detail mechanical classification requirements, including protective boom, estimated daily recovery capacity (EDRC), temporary storage capacity (TSC), response vessels, and aircraft, with specific standards for various operating areas. Alternative compliance options for EDRC, vessel speeds, and TSC are available, as is an Alternate Classification Cities (ACCs) program to expand coverage. The document also covers OSRO exercises, personnel training, equipment maintenance, response times, and procedures for reporting status changes. Dispersant and nonfloating oil classifications have their own specific criteria. The NSFCC and CG-MER conduct biannual reviews of these guidelines.
