Fish and Wildlife Service Pollution Response Workshop: 8-10 May 1979, St. Petersburg, Florida The Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) held its 1979 Pollution Response Workshop on 8-10 May 1979, in St. Petersburg, Florida. The workshop was designed primarily to enhance the ability of FWS personnel to provide technical expertise during oil and hazardous substances spill emergencies. Recognizing that effective pollution response requires a team approach, the FWS also invited participation from members of the various Federal, State, and local agencies in addition to representatives of industry, private citizens, conservation and humane organizations, and the academic community. At the workshop, 150 participants experienced an intensive 3 days of lectures, discussions, exercises, demonstrations of spill cleanup equipment, and hands-on training in the use of bird hazing devices. The final day included a simulated spill scenario, wherein participants, divided into small groups, found themselves in the character roles of Local Response Team members. Their task was to develop a response to the spill under realistic limitations of time, equipment, and expertise. What did the workshop accomplish? In addition to providing structured training to FWS personnel, it gave participants an opportunity to exchange experiences vital to effective spill response. The status of individual contingency plans was brought into perspective. In addition, Field Response Coordinators left the workshop with more definitive plans of action they will implement to develop or to improve local plans. Two notable areas of desired improvement were increased cooperation with State and local governments and better identification of sensitive fish and wildlife habitats. These Proceedings contain 29 papers presented at the workshop. The document is intended as a reference for FWS personnel and others who are concerned about or involved in responding to oil and other hazardous substance spills. From this exchange of ideas, it is hoped that the workshop participants and others who consult the Proceedings will be equipped to respond more efficiently and effectively to future oil and hazardous substances spills. This workshop and these Proceedings are designed to help meet a long-term need for continuous training of all individuals involved in spill response. The Proceedings are just a stepping stone in this overall training process. Additional training will be needed as technology advances and threats to fish and wildlife resources and their habitats continue.
