The home page is divided into six sections. One section about the trustee council explains what the trustee council is, the civil settlement and the restorations fund, and the inputs from the public advisory group. The injured resources and services section includes a list of the injured species, resource clusters, restoration notebook, and a database. From the list of injured species, the visitor can find out the species level of recovery and the human resources that have been affected. Everything in this list is described in terms of the effects of the oil spill, their post spill changes, and an analysis of how this organism or resource can cause rippling effects throughout the ecosystem.
Mussels are an example in the recovering species list.
A color picture of mussels is included with a description of what the oil spill did to them, what the recovery objectives are, and access to a query database. It is pointed out that the mussels are prey items and their byssal mats provide habitat to many other organisms. Because of that, they were left untouched in the cleanup and now provide a pathway for the oil to make its way into the mussels predators. The database includes the specific research at various sites that leads scientists to categorize the mussels as recovering. The public resources section of the Website makes information about the restoration activities available to the public.
