United States Navy Northwest 7/6/2010   Five near shore skimmers and five workboats.   Navy, Ecology & USCG adopt elevated response posture and Navy will rely on private contractors for response.  Additional conditions for approval placed on contingency plan including elevated manning levels for oil transfers, daylight transfers, prevention message to all Navy ships and installations.     
United States Coast Guard District 13 including Sectors Seattle and Portland       Over 120 personnel (active, reservist, and auxiliary status) from the PNW.  USCG District 13 will provide a “sustained” long-term work force for the Gulf Coast Spill response representing 15% of personnel based in the PNW.  Reduced capability to investigate and respond to minor spills, reported sheens, abandoned drums, etc.
