Whether you are hired to work to protect the shore from oil, or clean up shore damaged by the gulf oil spill, you will probably be required to complete OSHA training to educate you about the procedures, best practices, and risks involved in oil spill clean up work.
You can get a head start by reading oil spill publications and using the oil spill tools on the OSHA web site.
Thanks,William for putting together a great resourse for oil spill jobs. This oil spill clean up effort will take thousands of workers…

I submitted my application on the 15th and am still waiting for a response. I own a 20 foot aquasport center console I’m willing to take with me. I know it can’t handle rough seas but it only has an 18inch draft so it can be used inshore to transport materials or anything else needed. I live in south Florida so I’m not too far away. I hope to get a response soon, I’m ready to leave tonite.
Thankyou so much, for answering me…after I submitted you my application, back in July.
I appreciate a response from the president, Mr. Lombardo, and anxiously await a response back from your corporation. for the next step, towards my employment with the company…and participating in this important effort, to renew our integral coastline and seas…..thankyou again.
sincerely yours,
Graham W. Whitlow
