摘要: This report addresses the question of what objectives and performance metrics are used by key stakeholders to assess two recent oil spill responses: 1. The Bouchard-120 spill response that began on April 27th, 2003 as the tugboat Evening Tide ran aground and released No. 6 home heating fuel oil just at the entrance to Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts. 2. The Chalk Point spill response that began on April 7, 2000 when an intrastate pipeline that transports oil to the Potomac Electric Power Company's (PEPCO) Chalk Point electrical generating facility in Prince Georges County released No. 2 and No. 6 home heating fuel oil into Swanson Creek and subsequently into the Patuxent River. We conducted interviews with participants in each of the spill responses and investigated published reports to gather information about: roles and experiences of key responders and other interested and affected parties, their concerns about spill impacts and response, their views about and objectives during the response, and their views about response performance metrics. Those interviewed represented a diverse group involved in the spill response, including federal, state, and local government officials, NGO representatives, and local community members. The Federal on-scene coordinator and State on-scene coordinators from each response were included in the interview samples.
