COMBATING POLLUTION AT SEA Sample Clauses

COMBATING POLLUTION AT SEA. The primary response for combating oil at sea in the conditions prevalent around the UK coastline is spraying with dispersant. The UK has a small fleet of contracted aircraft, ready for fitting with spray gear, and available to apply dispersants at 6 hours’ notice at all times. They can be deployed quickly to any part of the UK Pollution Control Zone (out to 200 nautical miles). MCA also maintains stockpiles of oil recovery equipment. Two additional dedicated surveillance aircraft, suitably fitted for oil detection provide direction and control of at sea clean-up operations.
