Oil Spill Response Plan (OSRP)

Oil Spill Response Plan (OSRP)

An Oil Spill Response Plan (OSRP) establishes arrangements for responding to oil spills and minimising their impacts on people and the environment. Potential spill scenarios and sensitive receptors are identified to develop appropriate response strategies. The plan defines response levels, command structures and responsibilities of the parties involved. Available equipment, personnel and external resources are reviewed to support timely mobilisation. Procedures address spill notification, containment, recovery, shoreline protection and waste management, as applicable. Training and exercise arrangements support preparedness and coordination between response teams. The completed OSRP provides practical guidance tailored to project conditions and supports regulatory review and approval, where required.
