Basis and Purpose 

The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA 

90) requires, among other things, that 

periodic exercises take place to test oil 

spill removal capabilities in certain 

areas designated in the statute.1 The 

National Preparedness for Response 

Exercise Program (PREP) was developed 

to establish a workable exercise program 

consistent with this statutory 

requirement. The PREP is a voluntary 

program developed to provide a 

mechanism for compliance with the 

exercise requirements, while being 

economically feasible for the 

government and oil industry to adopt 

and sustain. The PREP is a unified 

Federal effort and satisfies the exercise 

requirements of the Coast Guard 

(USCG), the Environmental Protection
