The attached report describes the rationale used to guide the overall project, the nature of the case study approach on Kodiak Island, and the nature of the database that has been developed to enable long-term monitoring and analysis of litigation and settlement processes associated with the Exxon Valdez oil spill (EVOS). Such research, monitoring, and analysis are in keeping with BOEMRE’s proactive interest in documenting and planning for beneficial and problematic implications of oil and gas development on the nation’s Outer Continental Shelf. The attached final baseline report will be followed by a final project report early in 2011. The final report will include extensive analysis of the effects of the EVOS settlement, and summary information of utility to BOEMRE and other agencies involved in the management of natural resources available along the nation’s Outer Continental Shelf and Exclusive Economic Zone. It has been a great pleasure to participate in this project and to contribute to the BOEMRE mission to further the base of knowledge needed to effectively administer development of oil and gas resources along the Outer Continental Shelf of Alaska and elsewhere in the United States. We wish to express our sincere thanks for your diligent oversight of this important project. Sincerely, Edward W. Glazier, Ph.D. John S. Petterson, Ph.D. Principal Investigator President and Co-Principal Investigator ________________________________________________________________________ This study was funded by the Bureau of Ocean Energy, Management, Regulation and Enforcement, U.S. Department of the Interior, Washington, D.C., under Contract Number 0103CT72619.

  • How Current European Environmental Liability and Compensation Regimes Are Addressing the Prestige Oil Spill of 2002
    COMMENTS "NUNCA MAIS!" HOW CURRENT EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY AND COMPENSATION REGIMES ARE ADDRESSING THE PRESTIGE OIL SPILL OF 2002 ICIAR PATRICIA GARCIA* Three years after the public outcry and political pressure that ensued when the single-hulled tanker Erika ran aground off the coast of Brittany, the post-Erika Europe, which legislators had so confidently envisioned in 2000, unraveled at the seams. On No- vember 19, 2002, the single-hulled tanker Prestige broke in half ap- proximately 170 miles off the coast of northwest Spain,' leaving a damaging trail of three million gallons of Russian fuel oil.2 The catastrophic spill revealed the utter failure of the pre-emptive measures enacted post-Erika to ensure that Europe would never again have to face an environmental disaster of such devastating proportions. The Prestige would become the region's second catastrophic oil spill in less than a decade, almost ten years to the day after the oil tanker Aegean Sea3 smashed into La Cortfia, Spain's main port city * J.D. Candidate, 2005, University of Pennsylvania Law School. The Author would like to thank all those who made this Comment possible: Maria Smolka- Day and Ron Day for their tireless efforts in locating sources; Vincenzo Lucibello for his generous research assistance and infinite patience; Massiel Garcia for her constant moral support; and especially the Author's parents, Jose and Maria, who are the inspiration for this work. 1 Eric R.

  • Review on the Effects of Exposure to Spilled Oils on Human Health
    Review Received: 11 January 2010, Revised: 25 February 2010, Accepted: 26 February 2010 Published online in Wiley InterScience: 14 April 2010 (www.interscience.wiley.com) DOI 10.1002/jat.1521 Review on the effects of exposure to spilled oils on human health Francisco Aguilera,a,b,c Josefina Méndez,b Eduardo Pásaroa and Blanca Laffona* ABSTRACT: Harmful effects of oil spills on diverse flora and fauna species have been extensively studied. Nevertheless, only a few studies have been compiled in the literature dealing with the repercussions of oil exposure on human health; most of them have focused on acute effects and psychological symptoms. The objective of this work was to gather all these studies and to analyze the possible consequences of this kind of complex exposure in the different aspects of human health. Studies found on this topic were related to the disasters of the Exxon Valdez, Braer, Sea Empress, Nakhodka, Erika, Prestige and Tasman Spirit oil tankers. The majority of them were cross-sectional; many did not include control groups. Acute effects were evaluated taking into account vegetative-nervous symptoms, skin and mucous irritations, and also psychological effects. Genotoxic damage and endocrine alterations were assessed only in individuals exposed to oil from Prestige. The results of the reviewed articles clearly support the need for biomonitoring human populations exposed to spilled oils, especially those individuals involved in the cleanup, in order to evaluate not only the possible immediate consequences for their health but also the medium- and long-term effects, and the effectiveness of the protective devices used.

    After the Prestige Oil Spill: Measures Taken by Spain in an Evolving Legal Framework* José Juste Professor of Public International Law Valent�n Bou Lecturer in Public International Law University of Valencia Introduction I. Response to the Oil Spill and Subsequent Measures 1. Intervention at sea and contingency action 2. Unilateral and bilaterally agreed measures concerning certain oil tankers 3. Subsequent action promoted at the EU and the IMO 4. New Spanish legislation concerning vessel traffic monitoring and information II. Liability, Responsibility and Compenstion for Damages 1. Criminal prosecution of the Captain 2. Financial assistance to victims and advance payments of compensations 3. Court actions in Spain and abroad 4. State responsibility Conclusion INTRODUCTION In supporting the freedom of navigation principle, Grotius argued in 1609 that navigation was an innocuous activity, causing neither danger nor harm to any State.' Further evolution has proven ad libitum that, whatever the merits of the said principle might be, Grotius' assertion cannot be held true nowadays. * This paper has been carried out in the framework of the Research Programme "Práctica jur�dica internacional y europea en materia ambiental: desarrollos normativos y jurisprudenciales" (BJU2002-01928).

When the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) was adopted in 1982, it was already evident in practice that maritime transport of oil might have severe adverse effects for the environment and the economic interests of the affected coastal States, as a source of operative and accidental pollution.

In the case of oil spills, courts Oil spill are key actors in determining the allocation of liabilities according to international and national norms. In 2002, Environmental crime the Prestige oil spill led to a major environmental disaster on the coasts of Spain, France and Portugal. The fi Judicial recti cation limitations of liability provided by the International Regime of Civil Liability and Compensation for Oil Pollution Polluter-pays principle Damage have prevented the polluters from fully compensating injured parties for the damage the spill produced. In 2013, the Spanish Provincial Court of A Coruña condemned the captain of the tanker for disobedience, but no environmental crime was found; therefore, no further civil liabilities were incurred. Nevertheless, in 2016, the Spanish Supreme Court overruled the ruling of the provincial court and proclaimed the existence of an en- vironmental crime. This judicial rectification changed the allocation of liabilities, extended the application of the polluter-pays principle, and opened a different stage for estimating and covering the costs of the damage. This paper presents a highly relevant case study that analyses the new situation involving oil spills and the dis- tribution of liabilities within the current international regime. 1.

Millions of people were glued to the news from the Galician and Cantabrian coast, awestruck by the gravity of the ecological and economic consequences, by the initial negligence in managing the crisis, and by the pictures flooding in of dead birds, of fishermen trying to hold back the waves of oil with their hands, of huge black slicks along one of Europe’s most beautiful coastlines, and of thousands of volunteers struggling with the clean up. One year on, these images are already history: the beaches have been pretty much cleaned up; economic compensation has been paid to the people directly affected; agreements are in sight between the administration and the fishermen’s associations on outstanding indemnities; fishing has resumed along the whole of the coastline; official guarantees of product safety have been issued; and a special plan (named Galicia) has been set up to stimulate the local economy, with funds approaching €12,5 billion.
