New contract will help speed spill response times
BIMCO | The Baltic and International Maritime Council (BIMCO) and the International Spill Control Organisation (ISCO) have launched two new spill response contracts to make the task of arranging clean-up services following a spill incident significantly easier in an emergency. The two standard contracts are a first for spill response contractors. One is tailored for international use and the other is specifically for use in the United States. RESPONSECON and US RESPONSECON are designed for spill incidents and enable those involved to obtain clean-up services and hire specialised personnel and equipment without delay.
