Book Descriptions:
This electronic book on DVD-ROM provides an encyclopedic collection, updated in 2011, of documents, images, and videos about every aspect of the Gulf Coast Restoration Support Plan and Reconstruction Effort. In order to address the long-term environmental, economic, and societal impacts of the Deepwater Horizon-BP oil spill, and weave together local plans and development priorities with state and federal assistance, the President asked Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus, a former Mississippi governor, to lead the integrated Gulf Coast Reconstruction Effort. Subsequently, the Secretary spent countless hours in the Gulf, hearing from thousands of local residents, businesses, and elected officials to shape the foundation for his report. The resulting plan balances the needs of the people, the environment, and the economic livelihood of the region. It provides a proposal for a path forward to rebuild and preserve the Gulf s unique ecosystem, to succeed in creating sustained economic development, and to succeed in giving opportunities back to those whose livelihoods have been shattered by the spill. To begin to implement the plan, the President has asked EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson to chair the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Task Force. This advisory body will focus on efforts to create more resilient and healthy Gulf Coast ecosystems, while also encouraging support for economic recovery and long-term health issues. * Coverage of the Deepwater Horizon - BP disaster in the Gulf of Mexico has 158 documents from the National Commission on the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and Offshore Drilling, including the final report released in January 2011. There is extensive coverage of the initial explosion, the containment and cleanup effort, federal government and industry response, and investigation - along with guides to oil spill cleanup and environmental impacts. This exceptional four gigabyte collection includes over 57,000 pages reproduced in 218 Adobe Acrobat PDF files, many video files in mov and wmv formats, and image files in JPG format. In addition to the comprehensive coverage of the oil spill commission, there is material from the Deepwater Horizon Unified Command operation, government plans for restoring the gulf, the U.S. Coast Guard, NOAA Office of Response and Restoration, NOAA National Ocean Service, NOAA Fisheries Service, U.S. Department of Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the FWS National Contingency Plan, National Park Service, Minerals Management Service (MMS), EPA, NASA, CDC, White House (oil supplemental package, legislative package, establishment of a national commission), and Congressional hearings with industry and scientific testimony. With the leak finally sealed, attention has turned to the investigation of the accident, environmental damage from the oil spill, restoration of the Gulf coast and ecosystem, and the future of offshore drilling. The commission report provides authoritative, official findings on the causes and consequences of the BP Deepwater Horizon disaster, with proposals for comprehensive reforms of both government and industry practices to overhaul the U.S. approach to drilling safety and greatly reduce the chances of a similar, large scale disaster in the future. Our investigation shows that a series of specific and preventable human and engineering failures were the immediate causes of the disaster, said Commission Co- Chair William K. Reilly. But, in fact, this disaster was almost the inevitable result of years of industry and government complacency and lack of attention to safety. This was indisputably the case with BP, Transocean, and Halliburton, as well as the government agency charged with regulating offshore drilling the former Minerals Management Service.
