The BSEE’s John Caplis told attendees of the 2017 Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill and Ecosystem Science Conference that federal responses to environmental incidents rely on research results, according to a report.

Caplis emphasized that federal regulators often work with academic researchers, and explained how science is integrated into oil spill preparedness as well as clean-up efforts.

Caplis is an emergency oil spill response coordinator within BSEE’s Oil Spill Preparedness Division, and the conference is a forum for national and international researchers to share the latest scientific results with academics, state and federal agency employees.

  • The MGC Simple Plus

    The MGC Simple Plus is a simple-to-use, portable multi-gas detector that runs continuously for three years without needing to be recharged or routinely calibrated after its initial charge and calibration during manufacturing. The detector reliably tests a worksite’s atmosphere for hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide, oxygen and combustible gases (LEL). Additionally, it is durable enough to withstand the harshest treatment and environments, which is why it has an IP 68 rating. The MGC Simple Plus is also compatible with a variety of accessories, such as Gas Clip Technologies’ new GCT External Pump. Visit gascliptech.com for more information. 3
