DESCRIPTION
This presentation provides an overview of research efforts to understand how the deepwater horizon oil spill affected cultural heritage. The focus will be on recent researh efforts by NCPTT to find appropriate cleaners to removel crude oil from historic structures. A discussion of appropriate documentation is included.TRANSCRIPT

Record Location Data.
Follow Cultural Resources
GIS recommendations:• Trimble Model GeoXT, GeoXM or
GeoXH • Accuracy of +/- 3 meters or better.• NAD83 datum.• Export GPS data into GIS shape
files. • Map each site or standing
structure as a point; • Map the property as a boundary or
building footprint.

EPA National Contingency Plan.
• Schedule of Products considered as safer oil spill treatments
• “Lift and Float” Products
• Release of treatments into the waterways
• Oil spill treatment still must be approved
