    3. CCMS NATO Oil Spill Technology Development Workshop Preliminary Agenda A series which started in Horten, Norway in April 2004, and Moscow, Russian Federation, in October 2005 October 12th & 13th: Workshop hosted by the Centre for Offshore Oil and Gas Environmental Research of Canada’s Department of Fisheries and Oceans Operational Strategies for responding to marine oil spills in northern latitudes (i.e., Arctic) Applied research and development, technology transfer Field trials and case studies

    4. Risk Prevention Legislation and Policy Response Prepardness/Contigency Planning Eco-terrorism Oil Spill Fate and Transport Environmental Persistence Remote Sensing Modeling Biodegradation Biological Effects Environmental Effects Monitoring Environmental Risk Assessment Operational Response Containment/Recovery Treating agents Shoreline cleanup In situ burning Emerging Response Technologies

    9. Workshop on Oil Spills in Ice (Oct 11th, 2006) Prior to the NATO/CCMS Oil Spill Response Workshop a one day session (Oct 11, 2006) will focus on the application of oil spill response technologies under Arctic conditions. Participants will discuss ongoing research programs and new opportunities such as that presented by the International Polar Year (IPY) 2007-2008 initiative (www.ipy.org) and other joint partnerships. If you wish to attend this workshop independent of the NATO/CCMS meeting please confirm with conference organizers.
