Boom Length (FT): 5,000 Boom Type: Booming Method: Containment, Deflection

Protection Strategy: Consider in-situ burning. Use shallow open-water skimming strategies. Use Ranger guidance during boom deployment. Minimum resources needed for on water recovery: 2 shallow water skimmers. 5,000' deflection boom, size and type to be determined by location of spill and weather conditions to include wind and sea state. Response strategy to be based on over flight observations and trajectory modeling if available. Availability of collection/deflection booms and weather/tidal conditions will affect tactics and resource protection strategies. Protection will be focused on choke points to prevent contamination of sensitive areas. Near shore, consider sorbent boom or snare boom deployed by shallow water vessels to protect sensitive shorelines.
