NEW SERVICES - Oiled Wildlife Response Plans

Having an oiled wildlife response plan in place is the best guarantee that the challenges posed by a wildlife incident can be managed and kept under control. This response plan enables a company to take any necessary steps in the most timely and effective way, involving internationally accredited wildlife responders.

The service combines OSRL/EARL’s expertise in oil spill response planning with the Sea Alarm Foundation’s extensive knowledge of oiled wildlife response planning and worldwide network of wildlife response expertise.

Oiled Wildlife Response Plans developed under this service are state of the art and meet international standards as described by IPIECA and other international organisations.
