RSC members do not need to understand all the technical or operational aspects of the spill response, but it is helpful to have a basic understanding of the key participants and some of the elements of the system. Includes: Basic overview of oil spill response strategies (mechanical response, chemical dispersants, in-situ burning, wildlife response); Sensitive area protection (Geographic Response Strategies or GRS); Alyeska's Ship Escort/Response Vessel System (SERVS); SERVS' Fishing Vessel Program; and Summary of Mechanical Recovery (how spilled oil is collected from water)
