California OSRO Rating Program 

Posted 10/16/02 at 10:26:AM

The California Office of Spill Prevention and Response (OSPR) issued its
final rule on Oil Spill Response Organization (OSRO) Rating. Ship and
facility owners and operators required to submit California spill response
plans are required to identify and ensure the availability of spill response
capability. Plan holders who utilize a rated OSRO do not have to further
demonstrate their capability. An OSRO rated in accordance with the
regulations receives an OSRO Rating Letter from OSPR.
