Abstract:
Chemical shoreline cleaning agents (SCAs) are one option for cleanup of stranded oil on shorelines. However, site-specific variables, the properties of stranded oil, variations in the nature of oiled substrates, and the types of organisms present at a spill site can influence decisions to use SCAs. Combining results of on-site testing for cleaning effectiveness and toxicity with an appropriate stepwise decision process can assist “use/no-use” decisions for SCAs in the field.
