The purpose of this Guide to Oil Spill Exercise Planning is to provide guidance on the planning and conducting of exercises designed to evaluate a wide range of oil spill contingency plans and to train the personnel involved. The Guide first identifies and describes four categories of oil spill exercise and then establishes an exercise planning process that involves four steps: designing, developing, conducting and reviewing.
