SCIENTIFIC SUPPORT FOR PRE-SPILL PLANNING, SPILL RESPONSE, NRDA AND GROUNDING INCIDENTS
SERVICES
Polaris offers a Full Range of Response, Restoration, and Training Services
Leadership for shoreline response operations encompassing shoreline assessment (SCAT), cleanup, inspections, and damage assessment
Unique combination of technical expertise, from pre-planning through restoration, supports critical operational decisions in the context of NRDA and restoration concerns.
Support for coral reef damages from ship casualties, anchor damage, oil and chemical spills and wreck removal alternatives among others.
Unique combination of technical expertise, from pre-planning through restoration, supports critical operational decisions in the context of NRDA and restoration concerns.
Polaris scientists helped develop the SCAT process in the 1980s and have performed SCAT leadership and management functions for many significant spill events.
Wide range of training courses that cover a variety of oil spill planning and response topics.
POLARIS scientists continue to pioneer the use of aerial video surveys for shore-zone mapping, coastal inventories, and oil spill countermeasures planning.
Technical representation for responsible parties on restoration projects including: trustee liaison, assessment of alternative restoration/ compensation, project design/coordination, and monitoring.
Initiative to quantify, report and collaborate with others in the response and research communities to understand spill impacts upon multiple components which make up an ecosystem.
Provide in-person and virtual support in the capacity of multiple Incident Command System (ICS) roles for small or large-scale drills and exercises.
