Offshore Precautions
Objectives
The main objective of this Emergency Plan is to attend cases of environmental
pollution caused by oil and/or byproduct spills in Guanabara Bay.
The Plan intends to structure the cooperation of all member companies
and public authorities that can operate in planning and performing
anti-spill operations, by using trained personnel and specific equipment
to minimize any possible harm to the population and environment, reducing
the operating costs involved.
2.1 Scope of Plan
The plan is regional in scope (Level 2) and shall be put into action
whenever the capacity of each member for individual assistance (Level
1) proves inadequate to control the size of the spill. The plan will
also attend spills that require immediate intervention even when they
have not been caused by any of its members or whose responsibility
cannot be attributed to them.
