Oil Plume Extent Forecast Source: NOAA/Office of Response and Restoration http://events.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/services/Gulf_Coast_Oil_Spill_Plume Date Prepared: reported by CRGIS as of Thursday 03 June On 18 May, NOAA separated its oil plume extent into separate polygons—an inshore plume and an offshore plume. As of 20 May, both plumes were being posted by the GIS service. CRGIS has merged the Uncertainty areas from both plumes and differentiated the higher density oil depicted within the offshore plume. This gives five density classifications within the legend—Heavy, Medium, Light, Offshore, Uncertainty; previously there were four. NOAA describes today’s data set as below: “Forecast location for oil on 03-June-10 at 1200 CDT Estimates for: 1200 CDT Thursday 6/03/2010 Date prepared: 2100 CDT Wednesday 6/02/2010 This forecast is based on the NWS spot forecast from Wednesday, June 2 PM. Currents were obtained from several models (NOAA Gulf of Mexico, West Florida Shelf/USF, NAVO/NRL) and HFR measurements. The model was initialized from Tuesday evening satellite imagery analysis (NOAA/NESDIS) and Wednesday overflight observations. The leading edge may contain tarballs that are not readily observable from the imagery (hence not included in the model initialization). Oil near bay inlets could be brought into that bay by local tidal currents. Onshore winds (predominantly SW) are expected to continue through Saturday with speeds of 10-15 kts. These winds have resulted in northward movement of the slick towards the Mississippi/Alabama barrier islands. Trajectories show a northeastward movement over the next few days - threatening shorelines as far east as Freeport. The threat to shorelines in Breton Sound, Chandeleur Sound, and the NE side of the Delta continues to be reduced. To the west of the Delta, trajectories indicate that more shoreline impacts could occur between Timbalier Bay and SW Pass.” Offshore Oil Plume Extent Forecast Server: http://events.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/services Name: Gulf_Coast_Offshore_Oil_Spill_Forecast NOAA describes today’s data set as below: “Forecast location for offshore oil on 03-June-10 at 1200 CDT Estimates for: 1200 CDT, Thursday 6/03/2010 Date prepared: 1900 CDT Wednesday 6/02/2010 Currents were obtained from three models: NOAA Gulf of Mexico, NavO/NCOM, and NRL/IASNFS. Each includes Loop Current dynamics. Gulf wide winds were obtained from the gridded NCEP product. The model was initialized from Wednesday satellite imagery analysis (NOAA/NESDIS) and observations from an overflight of the region. The leading edge may contain tarballs that are not readily observable from the imagery (hence not included in the model initialization). Satellite imagery analysis continues to show narrow bands of oil to the SE and ESE of the main slick. An overflight to the region today observed one narrow semi-contiguous band of colorless sheen stretching approximately 60 miles consistent with this morning?s satellite imagery. Trajectories suggest these sheens will continue to be entrained in a large clockwise eddy (Eddy Franklin) that has pinched off the main Loop Current. South of approximately 26 degrees N, only

scattered transparent sheens were observed in conjunction with patches of seaweed. If this sheen persists or has tarballs associated with it, there is potential for some of it to become entrained into the Loop Current and move toward the Florida Straits. ” Feder al Disaster Staging A reas Source: Obtained from Deepwater Horizon (M C252) --- Situation Status M ap Source Date: 5/19/2010 In addition to the UAC at Robert LA, and the ICP at Houma, LA, the staging areas are: Dauphin Island, Orange Beach, and Theodore AL; Panama City, Pensacola, Port St. Joe, and St. Marks, FL; Amelia, Cocodrie, Grand Isle, Shell Beach, Slidell, St. Mary, and Venice LA; Biloxi, Pascagoula, and Pass Christian, MS.

The purpose of the ESI is to identify sensitive resources that may be impacted as a result of an oil spill. NOAA has defined three types of sensitive resources: shoreline habitats, biological resources, and human use resources (including cultural resources). The Index map is an aggregation of 1:24000 USGS quadrangle boundaries covering areas within which these resource types are at risk. The National Park Service has used the ESI in conducting its own assessment of the potential impact of the Deep Horizon BP Oil Spill because the ESI Area map comes from an authoritative source (NOAA), it provides a consistent geographic framework for agencies to use in responding to the incident, and it allows a reasonable area to take into account the potential impacts of recovery e.g. staging areas, clean up infrastructure, access roads etc. on cultural resources.
