International Bird Rescue -- Global Spill Response Efforts

Since 1971, International Bird Rescue (Bird Rescue) has provided oiled wildlife collection, rehabilitation and documentation services on an assured basis for companies that transport or hold petroleum products. The appropriate state, provincial and federal resource trustees direct these services under agreed-upon criteria.In the U.S., the Oil Pollution Act (OPA) 90 mandates wildlife response during oil spills and a successful response requires professional, trained wildlife responders work within an incident management team using a contingency plan based on real world experience. Bird Rescue's experience assures your plan, training and wildlife response management team will function in a real world response.We have responded to over 200 spills worldwide.
