Oil Spill Skull Creek CUSHING, Okla.

Group Manager @ Spill Response Association | Emergency Oil Response Training
Today's, Global 21 Newsletter is to verify the truth to all information that I, Tucker J Mendoza post on my professional social platforms. My work, studies, and voice have always been about the oil spill response industry, my passion and the will to share my knowledge, and how the oil spill response industry lacks next-generation knowledge, experience, and empathy.
A major spill response industry concern is the lack of practical field knowledge and
This lack of a true "Acknowledgment" on practical field experience and knowledge is past time.
The time has come for the spill response industry to gather and become better prepared, and organized to provide the best proactive training by reprogramming oil spill response foremen, supervisors, and managers, including all field responders who seemed to have missed the training.
The industry as a whole has pushed the next generation of field personnel to search for other careers.
Through my 33 years of practical spill response knowledge and ten years of studies, I can assure you that the spill response industry has come to the end of its ropes of building career-minded personnel that carries empathy for the oil spill response organization, and responsible party, or the environment.
But, if acted upon there are solutions
Over the past years, I have learned the spill response industry needs in-the-field reprogramming, coaching, and mentors who carry the knowledge and experience of practical knowledge to build a core group of next-generation responders.
I ask all my followers on my personal page, Spill Response Association, and subscribers of the Global 21 News Letter to please understand this is not a post to ridicule, it is a post for Acknowledgment and to help wake up the spill response industry.
Today's overflight and news release of a 3-week or longer oil spill in Oklahoma show the lack of training, experience, knowledge, and yes empathy.?
Training - absorbent booms should not come into play when there is visible recoverable oil.?
Experience - Primary containment boom should be placed on a straight 45 ?

Knowledge - Knowing ?
Empathy - is to care about all the above.?
This is the oil spill that I have questioned a few days ago and today had become a developing story...
We need to become WOKE within the spill response industry. ?
I ask all professionals to help the industry not become complacent and if your passion, work, job, education, and employment obligations are in any of the Groups posted above I would hope that you too will help support the Movement of Meet Frank, if not then please do not call yourself a person who backs safety of people are a protector of the environment.
The spill response industry does not need any more Franks.
What is needed is the ability to teach all Franks.
Many response professionals have acknowledged it, but none has voiced it

2 年Thank you, Tucker Mendoza for sharing. Kudos from your friends at the Remediation Partners Consortium!

2 年Exactly, Tucker, and this has been the correct technique for ages. If an absorbent boom is used, after suckling up the oil on the surface you are left the considerable effort of trying to get all the oil in the containment material removed and stored. This is work that shouldn't have been required.
