🔍 Key Concepts

• Mechanical containment and recovery methods vs. chemical dispersants • Difference between containing oil (keeping it in place) and removing oil from the water • Environmental impact and regulatory preference for oil spill response methods

💭 Think About

• Which options are mechanical methods that deal with the oil directly on the water’s surface? • Among the choices, which method(s) would regulators generally want used first, before resorting to chemicals? • Which option only moves or spreads the oil rather than physically collecting it for proper disposal?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice(s) involve adding a substance to the water versus physically handling the oil • Ask: does this method collect and allow recovery of the oil, or just push it somewhere else? • Think about which method would create the least additional environmental impact while actually controlling the spill
