Cook Inlet and Kodiak Marine Mammal Disaster Response Guidelines

NOAA Fisheries, in an effort to increase preparedness for wildlife response under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, has drafted guidelines for marine mammal response in disaster situations in Cook Inlet and Kodiak, Alaska entitled "Cook Inlet and Kodiak Marine Mammal Disaster Response Guidelines'" (Guidelines). NOAA Fisheries invites the public to comment on and/or provide additional information for NOAA Fisheries to consider in finalizing the guidelines.

The final Cook Inlet and Kodiak Marine Mammal Disaster Response Guidelines were published November 2019.
