This site describes the Navy Oil and Hazardous Substances Spill Program and is
part of a series of planning and response tools developed by the Supervisor of
Salvage and Diving, USN (SUPSALV).
The Navy On-Scene Coordinator (NOSC) is the Navy official pre-designated to
coordinate Navy Oil and Hazardous Substance (OHS) spill contingency planning
and to direct Navy OHS spill response efforts in a pre-assigned area. The NOSC
acts as the Federal OSC for all Navy hazardous substance releases. |

| Prevention |
| A combination of Policy, Instructions, and Vigilance. "Zero Tolerance" for
spills is the first line of defense in the Navy's prevention program. |
| Preparedness |
Response |
| Planning, Training, and Drills enable Navy personnel to prepare themselves for spill response. |
Control, Containment, and Cleanup of a spill is paramount in the Navy's efforts to maintain a clean environment, even after a spill might occur. |
