3 Terms and definitions
In developing this document, an attempt was made to use existing definitions wherever possible. For example, comprehensive terminology is available on containment booms, performance of recovery skimmers and on bioremediation, as provided by the publications of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), Committee F20, on Hazardous Substances and Oil Spill Response. Other areas had less coverage by standards organizations and gaps were filled through a review of a variety of sources. In this document, whenever a published source serves as the primary basis for a definition, this source is indicated by an abbreviated code. The complete citations for these codes are provided in the Bibliography.
