What role did the us government and coast guard play in the clean up of the Exxon Valdez oil spill?
The US Government and Coast Guard, along with the State of Alaska participated in clean up activities, but containment of the spill by booms was not feasible. The spill in some ways was different from the BP spill in that all oil spilled out from the tanker compartment within a couple of days. Exxon had to pay for extensive clean up efforts, including bio-remediation of the coast line. The Federal and State environmental agencies helped document the environmental damage, and this helped in later court cases. See related link.
