Oil Spill Response Training

The Oiled Wildlife Response Training Program includes an actual wash session with our new mobile unit.

Seminars

Save Our Seabirds works with power companies, petroleum products manufacturers, and transporters to educate them of a wildlife responder's needs prior to an environmental incident. Save our Seabirds also trains volunteers for oiled wildlife response in the volunteer's local geographic area.

These seminars are all-day events, sharing SOS's experience with recovery efforts following a major spill.
