Our Equipment and Comprehensive Services
Clean Rivers is unparalleled in the region in the depth and breadth of our
spill response services:
 | One of the Largest Response Equipment Inventories in the Northwest.
Clean Rivers can provide the most comprehensive response available.
Our equipment is purchased for the exclusive benefit of our members. |
| Guaranteed Two-Hour Response. Our experienced contractors can
provide up to 45 trained personnel within two hours of an incident. |
| Response Partners. Clean Rivers is associated with the foremost
maritime organizations in the Northwest. We pool resources with the
Maritime Fire & Safety Association (MFSA), which provides oil spill
contingency planning for vessels on the Columbia and Willamette
Rivers. Sharing the purchase and responsibility for this equipment
results in lowered costs to the members of Clean Rivers. |
| Extensive Coverage. Our equipment is staged at 14 locations along
the Columbia and Willamette Rivers, focused especially on environmentally
sensitive areas. This means spill response will be quick and
efficient, ensuring that the right equipment is dispatched to the right
place. |
| Wildlife Response. Clean Rivers and MFSA co-own and operate a
state-of-the-art bird rehabilitation trailer, the only one of this caliber
in the nation, and a wildlife transportation unit. Our relationship
with the International Bird Research and Rescue Center guarantees that this
region's prized wildlife will be properly and prudently cared for. |
| More than Spill Response. Members of Clean Rivers receive monthly
training, including HAZWOPER and the Incident Command System, as well as
personnel and equipment needed for annual drills required by law. |
| Regional Relationships. We've spent more than 30 years building
relationships with the U.S. Coast Guard, the Oregon Department of
Environmental Quality, and the Washington Department of Ecology. These
agencies all recognize that members of Clean Rivers have reliable and
effective spill response plans. |
